SINGLE AND HAPPY: Marriage and fami ly may be the norm, but it isn 't a gearantee of happiness for everyone- as anyone can tell by reading this column. When your friends push the subject, don't allow them to make you defensive . Just smile and change the subject. · DEAR' ABBY : How do people know if their therapist IS really helping them or JUSt taking their money? Mine does not talk much or give any advice . What kind of progress should I expect in recovering from depression and anxiety attacks, and how do you evaluate yourself and the doctor to determine if your healing is just a slow · process or if it's tame to find a better-suited professional? THANKS FROM OHIO DEAR OHIO: Discuss your concerns with your !herapist. Do not feel guilty for questioning . your progress . You have the right to do so. Therapy can sometimes be painful, but you must be completely honest, or it won't work. That said, Sometimes it takes a little shopping to find a good fit, so don 't be embarrassed about wanting a second opinion.· (Dear Abby is wrillen by Abigail Vail Buren: also known as Jeanne Ph1/hps, and was founded by her mother, Paulme Phdl1ps.

MARSHALL" will echo a little louder throughout Gallia, Mason and Meigs counties now that a. new Marshall University club has been established , Brad Sang, 1995 Marshall University graduate and general manager of Turnpike Ford of Gallipolis, said Friday the newly formed Tri-County Marshall Alumni Club will not only focus on the university's outstanding athletic endeavors, but also its successful arts and academic programs. "What sets this club apart from the Ma<;On-Gallia-Meigs (MGM) Big Green Club is that we are not focusing solely on athletics," Sang said. · "Along with athletics, we are also going to pay close attention to other aspects of the university, namely its involvement with the arts and its dedication to academic excellence," he added. Currently, there are three Marshall Alumni Association Clubs in Ohio, the Central Ohio Club in Columbus, the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Club and the Northeast Ohio Club, and seven in West Ytrginia. According to Sang, the success of Marshall's Mid-Ohio Valley Center (MOVC) in Point Pleasant, W.Va., coupled with the large number of alumni in the three county area, was the "spark" behind the club's formation. "I was approached by Homer I?reece. member of the MOVC board of directors, about stan- · ing a club for Marshall alumni and individuals interested in the university. Enrollment at the MOVC has increased every semester and we felt a club would benefit both the students and the surrounding communities," Sang said. "Following my conversation with Homer I contacted university officials in Huntington, W.Va. and was informed that there was, in fact, a 'huge' number of Marshall students and alumni located in Gallia, Ma<;On and Meigs counties," he added. "After hearing that, the decision to start a new club seemed quite logical," he said.

I A barge , crane and other heavy equipment appeared on the riverbank at Mason this week, - Trussel take 'these" because "by law that is the way it has to be." The Ohio Highway Patrol has their ha[lds tied as well. Unless the sheriff requests back-up, the highway patrol also can not respond to calls. The highway patrol has no jurisdiction on private property. Sergeant Pat McDonald said the highway patrol only has jurisdiction on public right-of-ways which include state and county highways as well as township roads. He said that unless a trooper sees something in progress where someone is in jeopardy, the trooper "does not have the powers and duties to be able to do anything." Sheriff Trussell alone will be responsible for rural law enforcement in the county's 429 square miles. On several occasions the sheriff has contended that travel to different ends of the county takes at least 15 to 30 minutes for a one-way trip. Trussell said in The Columbus Dispatch, one of the largest newspapers in the state , that he will , be unable to respond to property crimes such as burgl'!ries. Residents may file reports from 8 a.m. to noon weekdays at the sheriffs office. Free Stroke Risk Assessment ::.= z; .· POMEROY, Ohio- Since the virtual shutdown of the Meigs County Sheriff's Department Saturday, many local municipalities are on the front lines of law enforcement - or are they? While several villages including Pomeroy, Middleport, Rutland, Racine and Symcuse have law enforcement officers, they are not allowed by law to respond to calls coming outside the limits of their respeco· tive jurisdictions . Syracuse Police · Chief Brian Pearce said if a person living outside the jurisdictional limits of his village calls him about a crime or other incident, state law will not allow him to respond . The exception to this rule would be if Pearce or either one of the other two law enforcement officers in the village personally witnesses a crime taking place, then a response would be legally permissible . "Unless we are witnessing a crime, we can not go outside our jurisdiction," he said. "I'm not going to assume that liability for the county or viiIage. .. . The chief said if his department receive s a call. that unless it is a "life or death situation," he would tell the caller to conl<tct the sheriff's department for further assistance. The sheriff's department may then request backup from the village before it's l aw enforcement' officers can get involved. Middleport Police Chief Bruce Swift said his oftice has no jurisdiction either outside the village.

Halliburton's war contracts in Iraq and Afghanistan have reached $500 million, and are growing. Potentially. as the Army's sole provider of troop support services - think feeding, clothing and sheltering 150.000 men and women abroad- Halliburton's Kellogg-Brown subsidiary has received work orders for $529.4 million involved in the two wars. The work orders were awarded under a 10-year contract that has no limits. ... · Instead of putting the Iraq work up for bids ... the government has used the 200 I Halliburton Army contract to order work in Iraq . It's open-ended: Halliburton stands to make billions .... We have heard the Bush administration's arguments for deciding on Halliburton and they have a grain of reason. The huge Halliburton empire is the only American company multitasked sufticiently to meet urgent deadlines. That is an indirect self-indictment of the administration. While rolling out an effective war strategy, the United States proved unprepared for the day after liberation . In the months of buildup by an administration intent on invasion, why weren't more businesses solicited or alerted about postwar needs. If the decision .was that Halliburton was the only capa- . ble contractor, that insults American business ingenuity and · adapatability to meet sudden challenges. What Americans - and other companies- will note is an unbid contract, inked in 2001 with no limit on spending and limitless.protits for Halliburton. -The Times, Shreveport, La. .~Cigarettes I·,. .' ,. ·Impeach judge who irifluenced Michigan ·case· Boyce Martin should be impeached. according to tm ethics review conducted by That's the only fittin~ response to the Judge Alice Batchelder, Martin's colleague ~ecent damning revelauon that the chief on the 6th Circuit.

The 38-cent cigarette tax hike lit up state estimates for May. And the good news doesn' t end there. According to the chief administrator at the Tax Division, the revenue generated from cigarette sales, coupled with an earlier round of spending cuts, could leave the state with a surplu s when the tiscal year ends June 30. · The state raked in $241 million in May, about $ 10 million above estimates. · The cigarette ta)( hrought West Virginia at least $6.64 mil· lion in its tirst month, twice as much as estimated. All of this because our lawmakers tinally got up enough nerve to rai se the tax on cigarettes after 25 years of appeasement. "An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodi le, hoping it will eat him last," Winston Churchill once said. Well, our state's finances were virtually on their last leg prior to the tax hike, so we didn't have far to go. _Tax increases are never popular and never will be. Our oation is a direct result of a revolt agai nst a tax . · Our hi story is tilled with protests, violence, lawsuits, politics and lots of hot air over taxes. But there comes a time when certain products and services ne~td to be objectively assessed in the 21st .century. · . Sure, time does pass slowly here in the mountains. But it's almost ludicrous to thi"nk that our state took 25 years to raise the tax on ciga rettes from 17 cents to 55 cents. : Compared to the rest of the nation, West Virginia is still not ih sync with the average tax on tobacco in most states. Yes,. we' re aware some states that border ours have ridiculously low taxes on cigarettes. . Tobacco products are a major cash crop there and the vol" gme of sales of the resultant products make up fo r the 3-cent tax on cigarettes. · . : We would urge the Legislature to not stop with taxes on cigare ttes. Other tobacco products also could withstand comparable tax increases. Another line of products to explore for tuxes is alcohol.. We wo uldn 't-j ust stop with so-called "sin taxes," either. : None of us are giddy about paying taxes. But until someone eomes up with a better idea, we plan to pay our fair share. · The tobacco tax hike also goes a long way to prevent that other certainty. - T,he Dominion Post of Morgantown . . wrongdoi ng need not be punished. Tha( \ like lmClone say ing that. because it has taken corrective action to prevent insiders from dumping its stock 'before the company makes bad news public. Sam Waksal. its former CEO. ought not to ha ve received a seven-year prison sentence for his fraud ulent conduct. And what makes it all the worse in Martin's case is that he maintains that Batchelder did him an injustice. Yet, she did not go nearly as far as Judicial Watch wanted. "The Michigan· aftirn1ative action case was fixed," stated Thomas Fitton. the watchdog group's president. "The Supreme Court now has before"', it a landm<u·k case which made its way to· its steps through judicial misconduct.'' :: That's ' why the misconduct charges aga inst Martin are best resolved .. through impeachment proceedings. : Let the 'House of Representati ves conside r whether hi s ac tions in the , Michigan case rise to the level that he should face a Senate impeachment trial. Maybe. after weighing all the ev-idence, the House will dec ide that there's nothing to the charges agai nst Martin. ' He could return to the bench with his good name and reputation restored. Then again, maybe law makers will ' conclude that the 6th Circuit's chief judge abused the power of his position; that he tilted the scales of j usti ce in Grutter to ac hieve the outcome he desired. In that case, it would be the Lower Chamber's constitutional duty to adapt articles of impeachment against Manin and the Senate's duty to remove the appellate judge from office. . Joseph Perkins is a colwrmist for The San Diego Un ion-Tribune and can be' reached ar Joseplr.PerkinsUnionTrib.com. · A Jew crisp lines on the chart fire Wva.s economy Two television monitors faced the neat rows of leather-backed benches in San Francisco City Hall 's grand and ornate Room 250, where the Board of Supervisors held budget hearings this week. The monitors were overkill. A smat· tering of citi zens watched as a steady parade of suit-and-tied department supervisors defended their budgets to a smattering of supervisors. Fifty miles south, on 690 acres of gree n in rural San Mateo County, Calif., a few dozen teen-age boys from San Francisco's toughest neighborhoods were surely oblivious to the proceedings in Room 250. But what happens in this room will determine what happens down there. . Some powerful children's advocate.s wan t to close the 60-year-old Log Cabin Ranch. San Francisco's onl y residential camp for juvenile offenders. With money so scarce, they argue, the city cannot justify spending between $40,000 and $70.oq<J per child in a program that. they say. is not effecti ve. The money would be better spent on commu nity programs. Such decisions are being made in city and state governments across the country. Chief juvenile probation oftlcer Jesse Williams spent a chunk of his allotted time before· the supervisors on Wednesday arg~ir~g for the ranch's swvival. It saves kids who had failed everywhere else, he said. It doesn't save everybody. But enough kids arc getting their high school diplomas and GEDs as a result of the program. Enough kids are staying out of the juvenile justice system when they return home. "There are no simple and quick solutions," Williams said in the hallway •• I after his presentation. The arg ument over Log Cabin Ranch has been going on for almost as long as it's been open. San Francisco Superior Court Judge Donna Hitchens. who spentmine years as a judge in juvenile court, continues to be frustrated by the unreal ized poss ibilities of the ranch. "San Francisco should have one of the most creative and dynamic ranch programs in the state. if not the co untry," she said Joan recent I y. Ryan " Jud ges - - - - · h ave not been very excited a b o u l sending kid' there, but if it had more to offer, we'd send twice a' many kids." It ought to have vocationai education. for one thing. It ought to teach kids carpentry and ot her skills that would prepare them for union apprenticeships. "But there's no one at the helm sayi ng, 'Let's do thi :,·:· Hitchens noted. One reason for the lack of creative ingenuity is the revolving door of lead· ership. The mayor appoin ts the chief juvenile probation orticer, unlike the chief adult probation officer. who is hired by and accountable to the court. The chief juvenile probation officer. therefore, changes at least as often as the mayor changes. Williams, not waiting until a new mayor is elected in November, has already taken a job in Florida.

The Romantic era stressed strong emotion, imagination, a high appreciallon for nature, freedom, and rebellion against social conventions. The moveme nt included · many earl y 19th century American Writers like Emerson, Thoreau and Dickinson. · Born Francais-Rene de Chateaubriand in Paris in 1768, he left France upon the fall of the French monarchy to travel in the United States in 1791. That year· greatly influenced hi s later literary work. In 1792 he returned to France to tight for the survival of the monarchy. He was wounded at Thionville and left for dead on the battletield. He recovered and found his way to Englanq where he lived in poverty under an assumed name until 1800. He wrote a book in 1802 about Christianity that made him famous and got him introduced to Napoleon. His service in the government began at that time and continued for nearly 30 years, at which time he was ambassador to London, Berlin and Rome. Hi s political career James Sands COLUMNIST ended in 1830 when LouisPhilippe be~ame Icing. Chateaubriand died in 1848 after he had made his mark mostly as a noted author of essays, narrative poetry and other li terature. It was sometime in the fall of 179 1this future great French writer visited Gallipolis. One of Chateaubriand's biographers George Painter wrote quite a bit about Gallipolis rn his book "The Longed For Tempests." Painter claims that Gallipolis was referred "to in France in 179 1 as Cloudcuckootown. It seemed to most most of the people in France that this venture was foolhardy <jnd 'would sure ly fail. Painter writes: "The mi sused Frenchmen of Gallipolis, ninety miles downstream (from Marietta), had another such prehistoric mound of their own, which they planted out as "a pleasure-garden ., vvri ul a pretty little sumnier- 1163ouse oil the + The land, they were distressed to find, did not legally belong to them although they had prud for it: but no one wished to eject them, and the defaulting Scioto Company had the decency, before going bank· rupt, lo provide homes for their arrival and food, in the form of boatloads of flour from Pittsburgh and resident white hunters to shoot game, for their first winter..

"The finest ever see,' or took orders for carved mantelpieces, 12 or 22 guineas apiece, from General Putnam at Marietta or "a Spanish gentleman in New Orleans." So their lot was not so miserable, nor they themselves so feckless, as their historians have represented." Painter does recognize that Gallipolis did suffer through a very hard winter in 1790 and 1791. Gallipolitans had nearly starved as flatboats with provisions th.at were to come from Pittsburgh by flatboat were delayed by the froze n Ohio River. He also acknowledged that because Indians were raiding settlements and intercepting flatboats, a 2000 man army was being mustered at Cincinnati to go to war against the Indians. But the spring and summer of 1791 were ideal for crops and when Chateaubriand made his trip in the fall of 1791 Gaftolis residents were doing well. Those that left in 1791 appeared to have left more because of the fear of Indians· than due to- lack of food or -uncertainty about the !jtle to the land. Chateaubriand met up with spme of these refugees from Gallipolis in Philadelphia. We also find members of the original French 500 at St. Louis, New Orleans, New Madrid, Kaskaskia, Marietta,, Pittsburgh and Cincinnati. alm--,JmtineJ • Page AS Ohio Valley Publishing announces. staff changes Stalf report GALLIPOLIS, Ohio Andrew Carter has been appointed sports editor of the three Ohio Valley Publishing Co. new spapers, while Tribune News Editor Jerem y Schneider assumes Carter's previous positi on of assis tant managing editor news.

''Students participating will, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis speaks at a .local Red Cross convention earlier 'this week. in Cincinnati. Lewis has been speaking to local organizations as part of his push to get the Bengals more involved in the community. (AP) Ultimately. whether Marvin Lewis is successful as head coach of the Cincinnati Bengals will be measured in wins and losses. In the short term, though, Lewis· is already a winner in the Queen City, at least off the field . The veteran defensive guru, just the eighth black head coach in NFL history, has received the nod of approval from almost all corners·of the Cincinnati area since he was hired in January, even drawing rave reviews from NFL brass and top media analysts. In a town that has nearly been ripped apart by racial strife in the past few years the hiring of a black coach has served to soothe relations at least on a small scale.. It has also provided Cincinnati's black leaders with a positive role model to pitch to young people. Already in the months since his hiring, Lewis has been lauded by civil rights leaders in the area as a key to healing race relations in Cincinnati, a city that has not always been at the forefront of social progress to say the least. Lewis has been visible in the community since his hiring, making appearances at numerous e.vents, preaching the gnod news of things to come at Paul Brown Stadium. Additionally, Lewis has stressed the importimce of doing the right thing to his players, who appear to be buying in to his philosophy. In contrast to most of his predecessors with the Bengals. Lewis brings an upbeat approach that his coaching staff and players appreciate. Also, they have found out that he is a no-nonsense guy who only wants players around that want to be part of the program< Hence the departure of key veterans like All-Pro linebacker Takeo Spikes and fullback Lorenzo Neal, both of whom expressed doubts about the club's future fortunes even after Lewis was hired. They've been replaced with players willing to work to make Cincinnati a winner. In a recent and rare visit to Cincinnati, NFL boss Paul Tagliabue put his stamp of approval on the fledgling Lewis regime, calling Lewis' hiring "a 'sign of how important we all feel this is and how significant change is." . · Tagliabue even went so far as to say · he hoped to come back to Cincinnati to see the team play this season, a declaration that Lewis is using as motivation e $40/IRIIIIIIJI" e $50/IIIHIIIIIIIrl No matter what sport or activity in which your child is involved, they can benefit from that extra burst of speed and power.

Although some horses are retained by their owners for breeding purposes, others are often referred to auctions and .sometimes are sold for human consumption. However, Anne Kaufman of West Liberty, Becky Care of Wellsburg and Kelly Royal of Moundsville are three local people who have taken former racehorses into their barns and have given them a second chance. For the past I 0 years, Kaufman, owner. of Pegasus Farm, has trained the e"-racehorses to excel in eventing. The sport of eventing combines the equestri-. an disciplines of dressage; cross-country jumping, and stadium jumping. Kaufman said that she favors the Thoroughbred breed because of its speed and endurance. "They make very good eventing horses, they basically dominate the sport of eventing," Kaufman said. However, Kaufman said that there is a lot of training involved in reschooling the retired racehorse. But first, the prospective buyer must find the right horse. · "Buying an ex-racehorse is a bit of a gamble," Kaufman said. "It helps for the buyer to have some knowledge of horses, and to have someone to help them find the perfect horse." . Kaufman said she often selects horses based on their disposition while taking COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -The weekly fishing report provided by the Division of Wildlife of the Ohio Oepar.tment of Natural Resources.

They now have a national hit with the song, "Read Between the Nails." The Arnolds have released one concert video and have appeared on TBN.

Any injuries that the horse may :-ave suffered or currently has i'S also taken ·into account by Kaufman before she makes her purchase. Once Kaufman makes her selection, the horse is taken to her farm where she gives them time to become acquainted to life outside of a racetrack. Then, the horse is retrained for riding purposes. · Although some of the Thoroughbreds become permanent residents of Pegasus Farm, others are available for purchase after reschooling. Among Kaufman's current former racehorses is Sissy, who is beginning her career as an event horse; Sam, who may begin his eventing career this fall; and Rocky, a Thoroughbred stallion who won more than $100,000 during his racing career. . Meanwhile,. Care, who works as a groom for a racehorse owner near Chester, said that she was inspired to retrain Thoroughbreds after witnessing a horse auction. "After seeing the horsc;s at the sale and the conditions at the. auction, I was convinced that this was something I needed to do," Care said. Care believes that she often gains perspective into the horse·s at the racetrack because of where she works.

Emerson Drive released its self-titled debut album in 2002 after years of hard work, dedication and determination. The album has been said to "amply demon- strate the band's finely honed instrumental skills and decidedly edgy repertoire. " . Mates said he and his fel low band members always joked about becoming famous, but they di'd not expect such a huge response . "We had no idea it would ever build into something like this."

Billings said the committee scheduled Ronnie Reno and the Reno Tradition because they had received numerous requests throughout the years for bluegrass music. "We think we have obtained one of the best in the industry," Billings said . ' Following a No. 2 single and No. 6 album on the Billboard · country music charts last year, Tommy Shane Steiner will bring his talent to Mason. County as the final performer for the annual . fair. Steiner, who said he likes to . visualize . the stories for his songs before he sings them, will perform Saturday, Aug. 9, at 9 p.m. "I like songs that you can picture in your mind as a little movie.

BY BARBARA WOlKE Associated Press "Leonardo da Vinci: The Complete Paintings and Drawings." By Frank Zollner and Johannes · Nathan. Taschen . 696 Pages. $150. Five centuries ago, the illegitimate son of a ·. Florentine businessman created a painting that inspired the 1950 Oscar-winning song "Mona Lisa." Now comes . an over-the-top m<Jnograph about that artist which helps us understand the reasons for his enduring popularity. "Leonardo da Vinci: The Complete Paintings and Drawings" is both a scholarly work and a sensual delight that will get its message across even to those who prefer to look at the pictures rather than read the text. It contains all the images we know so well, and hundreds more that are never seen by the public. Even now, 551 years after da Vinci's birth in 1452, hardly a day passes without some reminder of this Renaissance ma·n. It may be an ad for the suspense novel "The da Vinci Code" or a paint-by-numbers rendition of "Last Supper" on the wall of a suburban home.

While you arc driving it, you listen to• what it is telling you - noises (new and changing of the old fan1iliar ones). handling characteristics. etc. It is also easier to pick up subtle ch~mges if the car is tine-tuned.

So what does this mean to you? You cannot be . a passive observer regarding your health.

Celebrations iunbap mtmt& ·it~tinel BY PETER H. GoTT, M.D. Columnist DEAR DR. GOTT: I have had a persistent. dry cough that mv doctor writes off as "allergies." I've been treated un successfully for months with a prescription antihista. mine. I take no other medicatio ns, feel healthy, maintain my normal weight, don ' t smoke and have no sputum . Should I consult another doctor about this problem? DEAR READER: Bv all means. Although your doctor may be correct that your problem is allergic in nature, a persistent cough :deserves further investigation. You don' t mention whether you have had a chest X-ray. If not. you should without delay. Moreover, I'm concerned that ·· your cough hasn't responded to antihistamine therapy ; I e/(pect ii would have if allergies were involved. Assuming that your chest X-rays are normal and that you don't hirve an obvious basis (such as a post-nasal drip) lor your cough, I'd want to know about the state of your sinuses. Could you have an undiagnosed sinus infection? Other issues to be consid.ered are: Do you work in a dusty environment? Is ypur heart in good shape? (Heart fai lure often causes a dry cough.) Depending on your medical history, the pertinent findings on your exam, and the }'esults of testing, I'd recomn1end a' second opinion from an allergist, an otolaryngologist or a pulmonologist. Getting a second opinion is good medical practice. I frequently refer puzzling cases to colleagues, who may not be (but usually are) smarter than L In such instances, a different approach and perspective are often helpful and, frankly, I might have forgotten or disregarded a minor detail that could be the key. As an aside, I was on the receiving end in such a situation several years ago, when,a fellow practitioner asked me to see a woman who had a chronic and troublesome cough. The patient had undergone thousands of dollars of testing <- all normaL I hit on the cause within 15 minutes of our interview. Slle was taking Vasotec for hypertension . The drug , one in the class of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, can cause cough in about 20 percent of users. r changed her medication and, within 48 hours, her cough disappeared. She was elated, and I was gratified to have been able to help her. A persistent cough should not be ignored . Follow your instinct to get a second opinIon. DEAR DR. GOTT: I lowered my cholesterol from 290 to 190 by using red yeast rice. but the distributor, whom I called, advised a liver test. Why? DEAR READER: Red yeast rice lowers cholesterol level s because it contains the equivalent of a "stalin" drug . For this reason, it (l ike other statins) can cause liver inflammation. Therefore, ut the times you have your cholesterol level monitored (every six to 12 months), I advise you· to have a liver enzyme blood test. This is also recommended policy for patients taking prescription statin medication .

CuriQus. they walked inside and found floor•toceiling shelves crammed with dust-covered boxes of decades-old insurance brochures and payroll records .

Opening the large , dusty volume, they found its rag -paper pages covered with· notes in ornate script, and colu mn after column of numbers within neat rules , and names in ·li sts, and signatures writ large. "A ll of a sudden," Connolly relays to Philip Kopper in the June issue of Smithsonian magazine, ."there was Thomas Jefferson." Here, too, was Aaron Burr and John Adams, whose signature matched that on the dust of David jacket McCullough' s biography of Adams, which Amoruso was then reading. "It was an 'oh my God' kind of moment," she said. Connolly called the hi storian of the Senate, Richard Baker, who came running. One look at the book told Baker that he "was holdin~ something significant.'

Some people are fortunate enough to to l1ve out that dream. Herbie and Marcia Elliott purchased an old. white farmhouse located on three acres along Main Street. Since then , the couple have lived their dream by t~ansforming the house into a place of beauty .• , The house was built circa 1904. It was a home for one of the daughters of the pioneer Rawlings family. who was prominent leaders in the community. Marcia found the house in the mid 1990s while she was caring for the owner, Harvey Erlewint;'. Erlewine purchased the four-story house for a meager $1,500 in 1959. After he died. Marcia expressed interest in purchasing the old place which, by then, had seen better days. The Elliotts' four daughters were grown, so it was time to begin a new life.

Smooth and creamy or hard and crunchy, an ice cream sundae serves as a luxurious finale to a delectable meal or a gui lty pleasure on a lazy afternoon. Beloved by millions, there are no less than six cities across the country that c Iaim to be the birthpl ace of thi s classic treat. In Tw.o Rivers, Wisconsin, it is claimed th m in 1881 George Hall aver ordered a dis h of ice cream at a par lor ow ned by Edward Berner. He was just about to dig into his frosty treat when he sp ied a bott le of the choco late syrup used in sodas and asked 10 have some poured over his i'e cream. Berner . obliged and wa tched. the you ng ma n fall in love with the concoction . Buoyed by the positive response, Berner began to feature "ice cream with sy ru p" on Sundays for the sal"e price as a pl ain di sh of ice cream: .'i cents. Acco rdin g to the Wi sconsi n Histori cal Society, a I0-year-old gi rl came into Berner's shop one day and ordered a dish of ice cream ''with that stuff on top." It wasn't Sund ay. but the young lady insisted, sayi~g that they could pretend that it was. After th at , the dish lost its Sunday associati on and was sold every day in a variety of flavors. The dish was only called "ice cream sundae'' when a glassware salesman placed an order for the long, canoe-shaped di shes in whi ch it was served ·- sundae di shes. , Evanston. Illinois, also claims· the ice cream sundae as a hometown creati on. According to leg· end, by the late 19th century, the people of "Heavenston," as it was named by te mperance leader Frances Wi ll ard, had a lready banned saloo ns from their town . They belie ved Sunday was better suited to worship and piety than idle pleasures like those served from soda fountains. Town officials even passed ,an ordinance pro· hibiting the sa le of ice cream sodas on the Sabbath. As the story goes, some creative confectioners and drugstore opera· tors decided to serve up ice cream treats wi th flavored syrup ·· but no soda -- on Sun days, in co mpli ance wit h the law. The Evanston Women' s Chr istian Temperance Union championed the creation as a pleasa nt al ter· nat ive to alcoholic drinks. · Yet another tale plants the origin of the ice cream sundae in a quie t town in central New York. "The year was 1892. It haca. New York, was dotted with local drugstores, where many a nickel was spe nt for a dish o f ice cream," begins the story on www.icecreamsundae.co m, the official Web site of the dessert. One hot Sunday afternoon in 189 1, fo ll owin g services at the Unitarian Church, the Reverend John M. Scot! and one o f h is pa ris hi one rs, Chester Pl att, decided to go for so me refresh· ments and to chat alro ut th e day's se rm on. They vis ited Platt's store, the Pl att & Co lt Pharmacy, and ordere d two di shes of vanill a ice cream from the clerk wo rkin g th at day, DeFores t Chri st iance. On a whim, Platt poured cherry sy rup on top and dressed it with a candied cherry. The two men sampled the dish and immediately started cas ting about for a suitable name . According to Christiance, Scott proposed that it be named. after the day it wa' invented: Cherry Sunday. Other flavors soon fol lowed, as did a public outcry over naming the treat after the Sabbath. Eventually. the spe lling was chan!!cJ to "sundae" and an Arneriean legend was born. ---so·which version is the truth'' The >tories persist in these and other places around the Ln ited States. 1 casa1s or Picasso 6 Famale domes1lc to Ice llockey nem 14 Felines t8 Charm 20 USid a loom 2t Gumbo vegetable 22 Different 24 Designated 25 Uppennost point 26 Pome fruit 27 Chewy candy 29Ripped 30 Had on 32 'Much AbO<Jt Notlting" 93 Levin or Gershwin 94 Acclaim 96 Statuta (abbr.) · 97 ailfs edge 99 Johnnyt02 Tyson or Nklhots 104 Bal<ery item 105 Black cuckoo t06 Fetch . t07 Nev(,s t06 Sluggish 110 Made ot black wood t 12 ti·wiM t 14 Sting about 115 Run o1f tlte tracks 117 Seaweed 1t 9 Pu1 cargo aboald 120 Reddish-brown 34 Uquefy 36 Sand hi ~ t21 Ignore 37 Reverent lear 38 Charge for nding 39 Century plant 41 Slg1 gas t25 Wool-eater t26 Say 1urttter 129 Field 131 River in France 43 SJJ11111ernent (witlt 'ouf) t32 Dice 133 Little one 44 Appatel 45 Stayings 136 Fal 138 FIIIJT\ ar1mal 14Q -de plum& 14t Green gemsl<lf1e t 42 Ft¥TJity man 47 Go at a fast pace 49 WBII . 52 Copi181 of Latvia 53 Engrossed 55 Tropical bild . 59 Seething 60 Sar\olls 62 Go by boat 64 Rascal 65 Gtee or golf • 66 Passover meal 67 Native of (sufftx) 69 Gat brown at the beach 71 Discord goddess 72 Spread to dry 73 Gladden 74 - passim 75 Band lor sharpening n- King Cote 78 Violin name ~Poise 82 Charactatlslics 84 Ghost 85 Genesis name 87 Den 88 Reduce by 50 percent 89 From tltat plaCe ~Slip-up 92 Jwgon t 23 Reduce in value t43 Wli"en 145 Small monkey 147 -the Terrible 149 Composes verne 151 Publish 152 Netgt-oorofNev. t53 St;p of t492 t54 Flair 155 Storage stn.dure 156 Descartes 157 Cob ' 158 NOt wordy However, in the end, the mystery may he l p increase th e sun dae's all ure for desse rt lovers o f all ages.

The cool, wet spring has been ideal for the survival of s1ugs. Both homeowners and rarmers have complained tq our office about slugs eating, young tender leaves , plants and fruit. Slugs are animals that belong to the Mollusk family. They . are not insects, so ,; • insecticides have little effect on killing them. Most slugs qverwinter as eggs and hatch in the spring when tern- · peratures reach 32-42 degrees. They will mate in late summer or early fall and lay eggs in the soil or under rocks, leaves or boards for next year's offspring. A few slugs are able to overwinter and they may lay eggs several times throughout the summer. Thus, slug control is a matter of attrition. Efforts in control will neap benefits as you minimize the number of slugs available to eat your plants and reduce the number of slugs ihat grow old enough to reproduce. Slugs feed mainly at night and will hide in ihe daytime. Some homeowners use flashlights to capture and destroy slugs during nighttime. Control measures should include reducing the areas for survival and breeding. Clean up those outside flower beds by removing debris, flat boards, paper and leaves. Keep mulch off garden areas until mid June thus allowing garden areas to dry out. Capture slugs using fermented yeast (can use beer) in a shallow dish placed in the ·garden level with the soil line . The slugs will crawl in each night as they are attracted tiy the odor. Remove the slugs daily and destroy ihem. Protective barriers of a~h. lime and sand have been mildly successful in low rainfall years. The barriers actually work by injuring the slimy protective tilm that encases the slug thus causing the slug to dry out. Slug baits oontaining the chem-. ' ical, Mesurol or Metaldehyde are available for the flower garden. Mesurol products may not be used in the horne vegetable garden.

I have considered sandblasting the walk. but I'm not sure that would really do the job. And I really don't want to apply the "peel & stick" nonskid tape. What would you recommend? A'. We concur with your reluctance to install the peeland-stick type of tape. Whereas it looks all right and works well on steps, it isn't the sort of thing that we believe one should have lining his front walk. • Sandblasting, while an alternative, is something that usually requires a professional and can be very expensive.

MILES lAYTON Staff writer . .... SYRACUSE - Lindsey Smith, the London Pool head lifeguard, ha~ always wanted to be a lifeguard. She started going to the pool as a young girl and even then, she cons.idered what it would be like to be a lifeguard. "I have been coming here since I was little," Smith said. "I looked up to the lifeguards and I · ihought it would be fun to be one some day." Certified by the American Red Cross, Smith became a lifeguard at the pool when she wa' still a student at Southern High School. She was named )Jead life guard this season and is responsible for a stall of eight lifeguards. She ha~ w01ked at the pool for ihree years and said she is lucky that she has never had to rescue anyone. Smith works in conjunction wiih the two pool managers, Bobbi Hill and Brandi Lyons, to maintain and manage ihe Pool that opened June 7. She likes being a liteguard because ihe job allows her to enjoy the summer· and be out in the sun- and the extra money doesn't hurt either. The worst pan of being a lifeguard is being out in the sun during the really hot months when the sun is beating down. The guards bake in the sun for 45 minutes at a time perched out in the open on towers overlooking the pool. Smith likes living in the Racine/Syracuse area because "everybody knows everybody." Her parents are Jim and Diana Smiih. She has a pet cat, Kashmir, named after a Led L.epplin song and a rabbit named Hippie. Last year, Smith attended Hocking College and plans to attend Washington State Community College this Lindsey Smith, head lifeguard at the London Pool in Syracuse, is perched on her tower watching and waiting in the noon day sun'.
