The equipment is being made available by the U.S. Forest Service's Federal Excess Personal Property program which provides vehicles and ot4er fire fighting equipmem to rural fire departments at no charge. The program is administered in Ohio by ODNR "This program helps local tire officials obtain important fire fighting equtpment they mtght not otherwo se be able to purchase," said John Dorka, chief of the ODNR Di vision of Forestry. "The average budget for an Ohio rural fire departmem is $24.000 per year with mal)y fire departments operating on $5,000 or less annual' ly." · Of the nearly 1,300 fire depart" ments'· within Ohio, some 900 are classified as rUi al and are pnmarily staffed by vo lunteers.

At age 77, Smith is a perfect personification of St. Nick. He appears annually in Pomeroy- and Middleport Ch ri stmas parades, at Head Start centers and nursing homes, . church programs, and privale parties, and children clearly delight in his abili· ty to relate one-on-one. "I love children," Smith said. "!.really enjoy them, and I love to see them · happy, and Santa Clau s makes children happy." Retired from the Philip Sporn plant, Smith began his extra-special holiday work in the early 1980s, with the help of his late wife, Lydia. When she died in 2000, his c!aughters, Debbie Rose of Long . Bottom and Janice Grimm of Pomeroy took over their mother's role, not as "Mrs. Claus," but, perhaps, as "First Elves." "Our mother was like 'Mrs. Claus,' but didn 't dress . for the occasion," Smith's daughter, Debbie, said. "When she passed away, my si ster and 1 took over where she left off, because we felt it was · something she would have wanted my dad to continue - · making kids happy '" Debbie even takes vacation time during the holi day season to help her father wi th his enl'agements. She drives hun to each appearance, because the costume, . wig and beard make driving a car ne:jrl y impossible. "We're booked up through Ch ri stmas." Debbie .said. "Once Dad has· been somewhere as Santa, they want him back every year, and things get busier every.year." Smith attends the Rtotland Church of the Nazarene , and is an Air Force veteran. He also is a member of the FeeneyBennett Post I 28 , American Legion . Please see Santa, Al C\ 2002 Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

HENTOFF'S VIEW Eye that never sleeps casts gaze ~n our fteedoms BY NAT HENTOFF While Attorney General John Ashcroft has been the principal target of civil libertarians across the political spectrum because of his war on terrorism - with sustained collateral damage to the Bill of Rights - the most startling Bush administration attack on the privacy of millions of Americans is coming from the Defense Department, headed by Donald Rumsfeld. Without an official public notice or Congressional hearing, the Defense . Department's Infonnation Awareness Office - directed by retired Navy Adm. John Poindexter- is creating an omni vorous "centralized grand database'~ that, as The Washington Times re. ported on Nov. 15, "would be authorized to collect every type of public and private data" not only on imrrugrants and visitors but on American citizens - all. without judicial warrants. By mining commercial and government databases, the Total Information Awareness program, when functioning, will scoop up medical records, telephone calls, the pay'per-viewmovies you order, prescription purchases, travel reservations, passport applications, records of divorces, coun appearances and practically any piece of electronically recorded infonnation about you. · ' Phil Kent, pres,ident of the conservative Southeast Legal Foundation, calls this actualization in real time of George Orwell's " 1984" the "most sweeping threat to civil liberties since the JapaneseAmerican internment." Orwell, who died in 1950, could not have envisioned the extraordinary advances in surveillance technology that may lead to the end of any expectation of privacy.

The struggling carrier was counting on its employee stock ownership plan to help lift it out of its financial mess eight years ago. But how could it, when just about every aspect of the ESOP - the design, execution, membership-.was all wrong? Now, United is the blueprint for what not to do when creating an ESOP. Too bad it failed, because history shows that employee ownership can be a key driver to a company's success. "It had some fatal flaws from the start," said Patricia Kelso, who heads The Kelso Institute, named after her late husband, Louis. He is credited with creating the ESOP in 1956. Louis Kelso believed that the capitalist system would be stronger if all workersnot just executive,, and outside stockhold-. ers - could share ownership of capitalproducing assets. His hope was that employee ownership would raise morale and productivity. Some evidence shows he was right. Companies with employee ownership grow on average 2.4 percent faster than they would have without the ESOP, according to the National Center for Employee Ownership in Oakland, Calif. And that growth rate jumps as high as II perceni at companies where management and employees work together on decision making. Among the most successful ESOPs: Proctor & Gamble and Publix Super Markets In a typical ESOP. a company creates a trust to which it makes annual contributions of stock.

Arguments over double-digit tuition increases and tuition caps bring the ever-increasing cost of a college education to the front pages of the newspapers each day. A college education is more affordable than you think. There are a lot of costs associated with college, including tuition, fees, books, and possibly room and board. Obviously,, the biggest cost is the tuition and fees and these can vary significantly from institution to institution. Tuition rates are determined · by whether the college you choose is public or private. Public institutions, which are supperted by the state, usually have lower tuition rates. There is also a difference in rates between a two-year community or technical college and a four-year baccalaureate institution, with the community college having the lower rates. The total cost _is also affected by your choice of either commuting to classes or living on campus in the dormitory. · At a community or technical college, you can obtain an associate degree or complete a certificate program. According to the Ohio Board of Regents, the average annual tuition fpr Ohio's community colleges is $1,935 . If we look at the cost of obtaining an associate degree, which is normally completed in two years of full-time study, the tuition cost is approximately $3,870. When you compare · Luanne Bowman GUEST VIEW this cost to Ohio's average annual salary for associate degree graduates of approximately $33,000, the longterm financial gain is obvious. Also, most community and technical colleges are located in · close proximity, which allow students to ,commute to classes. This reduces the total cost to the ·student of obtaining the degree because there is not the added cost of room and board, which can save approximately $5,000 each year depending upon the school. For those students who wish to complete a bachelor's degree or higher, there are numerous private and public institutions in the state. According to the Ohio Board of Regents, the average annual tuition for a public fouryear university is $4,973, or almost $20,000 for a bachelor's degree. This cost is usually much higher for private institutions within the state. Another factor to consider if you want to obtain a bachelor's degree or higher is that you can begin your education at your local community college. Community colleges offers what is referred to as general education classes: These classes, including subjects such as · math, English, communication, and science, are required for all students regardless of major. When the student transfers to a fouryear institution, the remaining classes are mostly in the student's major area of study. The decreased tuition rate · results in a very valuable educational savings. Let's do the math. · If we take into consideration the decreased ·tuition rate for the first two years, orie could save {llore than $6,000 in tuition costs by attending a community college and. the.n transferring to a pubhc mslltution. Also, if you eliminate room and board fees for the ·· first two' years, the savings can top $15,000. . Do not let these potential expenditures deter you from obtaining a college degree. A recent College Board study indicated that almost 60 percent of students currently enrolled in college obtain · some fonn of fmancial aid to either compleiely pay for or defer costs. What that means is that the st~ted rlltes are not what students and their families have to pay out of pocket. In the weeks to come, we will discuss the types of financial aid available and how we can put college in your future.

All. four players on a team "think" identically. The winning pro· gram was Jack, written by Dutchman Hans Kuijf. It won the final by the com· fortable(!) margin of one point over WBridge 5, the prod· uct of Fren~hman Yves Coste!. Jack led poorly an(! played well on tbis deal from the final. At the other table, the Jack West led the diamond ace, an infe· rior choice when one knows from the auc· tion that dul!'my ·has at most a smgleton. After this, WBridge 5 had no trouble win· ning 10 tricks via one spade, four hearts, three clubs and two diamond ruffs in the dummy. WBridge 5 West found the trump lead. However, Jack timed the play well. After winning with dummy's heart ace, de· clarer played a dia· mond to the jack and ace. Back in with the heart king, Jack cashed the club king, played a spade to the ace, ruffea a spade, took dummy's acequeen of clubs (dis· carding a diamond from hand), trumped another spade, and ruffed a diamond. That was 10 tricks down, nine in and one out. Dummy, on lead, retained the jack-! 0 of spades and club seven. West ·was ·known to have the queen-eight of spades and one other card. A human would ruff a spade in hand for the lOth trick. But Jack went for the crowd-pleasing play, ruffing dummy's last club. West over· ruffed, but after cashing the spade queen, had to. concede the last trick to dummy's spade jack. 51 Ballpark " Aladdin" prince 17 19501 NCO«<s 19 W11h off 21 Mtd. o0 K t Middleport e Pomeroy, Ohio over deg. 14 Hlrdtn 15 Sharplhooter - K 10 9 I 4 • 6J z South 39 Ytlnllke 1 Crowd 40 Gob of gum 4Tttholder 41 Mont. 7 Coke neiGhbor lltemotlve 42 .Baildn or ·10 ActorDoGenoi'H Wolloch 45 Eye parts 11 Kitchen tool 49 Handed ~-!II ' 50 Seine aile Strategy gruero Mlofortunes 31 Wearing Ms. Adams clothes Hurt• 35 HeHoro' 52 Stroke --- CELEBRITY CIPHER ·by Luis Campos Celebrity Cipher cryptograms are created from quotations by famous people, past and presenl.

The contract .must go through two more council votes before it is official. If approved, the service contract defines the duties, pay rate and benefit structure for the new magistrate, who oversees mayor ' s court. The proposed .contract between the village and the new magistraie asks for about $500 a month compensation, in addition to mileage and other expenses related to the job.
