This year, working with City Engineer Randy Breech. Gallipolis has adopted a uniform code of building regulations, as well as revisions of the zan ing ordinances. The actions were prompted in part by home and business expansion, and concerns over historical preservation in the city, The · building code, commonly known as BOCA, "has given us more enforcement power and better guidelines," McDade said , "You can fine people if they don't comply, but be dangerous, unsafe, unsanitary or otherwise unfit for human habitation or occupancy." ,_ .In the case of the Mill Creek properties, the city had to eradicate a perceived health and safety problem ' with the abandoned houses.

Each genera- ,.,-----, tion has its own special situations, but the preserving and reclaiming purposes are always present for those who are brothers with Christ. Clearly ,portraying the message is always the biggest challenge for many do not understand, · , and some will distort. • Proclaiming the Christmas message requires a lot of ~ inotivated messe.ngers, for one to one is the best approach. : This will require that the message is meaningful to the i t:iver, that a lifestyle confirms the message, and lh~l it is t •.:.::.JI.L l given in love With no shade of arrogance. : While all stand in need of receiving this message, not all will acknowledge a this, to themselves or others at a given time. A time of "heart softening 11 will ! likely be needed, and even expected, for this is a spiritual transaction and not : one of the flesh. We must hear His voice and nol just the one of our friend. : The benefits of receiving this message are out of this world, but they are : also present while we aie in the world. Having a companion who sticks clos-.• ; er than a brother is an asset ilo one should be without. Like lhe bumper stick; er says: Salvation-- Don't Leave This World Withoullt. • Lest giving a clear message may seem to some as being easy, like peach: es and cream, this may· not always be lhe case. Those in spiritual poverty, as : a rule, do not wish to agree lhat "all have sinned and come short of. the glory · of God."

Steve Salisbury President announced that tile club had ordered a book to be placed in the Bossard Library in Gallipolis 1n memory of tbe late Conard Hudson, who was k.illed in a farm tractor accident on Nov. 14. "Conservation Biodiversity" is the book's title and deals with conservation of a111131Ural resources . Mike McConnell, Ohio Division of Wildlife officer for Gallia County, reponed that Ohio saw a 28 percent decline in the number of deer harvested during last week's huting season. He noted thai Gallia County's total .of 2,735 was about 1,000 less tl1an the 1997 season produced. McConnell reported thar hunten k.illed 79,356 deer in Ohio this year compared to 110,875 in 1997, a drop of 28 percent. The officer staled "thai more conse"·ative deer-hunting regulations, unusually warm weather. and an increase in the deer popula· tion in northem Ohio led to reduced hunting pressure in the sout~ern Ohio counties this year." The club voted to send a letter of complaint to the Mead Paper Corp. regarding their imposing of large · fees to hunt on several hundred aacs of land they own in Raccoon and Huntington Township< in Gallia County plus additional land in Jackson County. A club member noted that this land had been designated as a "public use" area for many years, but that Mead has leased tbe land an individual who is now chatging fees ranging from S I ,000 to S1,500 to hunt on the property. The club will request that Mead terminate this lease agreement and revert the area back to public use. to ., Students are graded on how lifeSTOYSTOWN, Pa.

We have to remember, the problems that people face during the year, don't get better at Christmas. The season heightens the issues we deal with all year. Althof also sees unrealistic expectations as stumbling block for people.

Then, we have depression. If the feelings last longer than a few weeks, we suggest that a person seek help." FAMILY PROBLEMS Family relationships are often the '' hardest issues to deal with. Adults returning home may" slip back into childhood patterns of behavior. Parents also may have a hard time seeing their children as independent adults. Althof recommends four steps in dealing with family members. "You should talk out your expectations with your spouse or a close friend. Happy family visits requires planning a willing· ness to change worn out patterns that can be stressfu 1: The second step is to accept the difference between yourself and family mem bers . Relationships are more important than making a particular point. Always remember to keep a sense of humor so you can laugh at the little things . And finally, have mutual respect for the difference 'in values and need of the different generations in the family." Blended families present unique problems. According to the New York based Stepfamily Foundations, tile majority of ·Americans today are in •a step family because of the incre\15ing number of remarriages. Jeanette Lofas, founder and president of the Stepfamily Foundation, advises parents to plan carefully, yet be realistic about what is best for the children.

A world shrouded by darkness, .guided by faith By CATHERINE HAMM T1 mee Sentinel Staff GALLIPOLIS - Joan Cole's world may be shrouded in darkness, but the light that guides her life is brightly illuminated to those around her. Blind since birth, she lives alone and not only cares for herself, but seeks ways to help those people around her. "I love to try to encourage other people. God has been so good to me, and He helps me daily. I want to tell people, 'If God can help me do all the things I have to, then he can help you.' I'm living proof of that." Her blindness was a result of being a 'late life baby'. She left the safe confines of her family at the age of six to live at the Ohio State School for the Blind. She was not taught brai lie, but rather how to care for herself. When her beloved father died, ~er world fell apart. Her mother's remarriage to an abusive alcoholic meant she would be forced to leave the school in the seventh · grade. ' With her educational future halted, Joan was expected to help the family by doing household chores. Her family had little faith that she could do anything else. "They thought I was stupid because I was blind. That was what I grew up hearing and believing." Feeling like an outcast and desperate for love, she found herself struggling as a single mother at the age of 20. "I was washing dishes in a restaurant and doing laundry for people, just trying to care for my baby. I lived in a tiny room and didn't have anything for my son. 11 Joan's plight was not lost'on an acquaintance who bought her a complete layette set for the baby. "That's just one example of God taking care of me." Hoping to find happiness, she married and had two other children. The marriage, however, fell into a pattern of abuse. While it lasted over twenty years, !oan and her husband were separated for 13 years. Moving to·Gallipolis, Joan started to find the peace she had long sought. Living independently she found joy in forgetting about her problems, and focusing on other people. Her church family at New Life Lutheran played a vital part in the change. Pastor John Jackson notes, "It's just a true example of 'what the relationship should be in the church serving Joan as much as it does, and how she returns that by the way she lives out her life in Christian love." Jackson points out Joan's concern and help for her neighbors. "She is. an example of the work that is just not within the church walls. I've often said before you can be a Christian, you must be a neighbor, and Joan is that." Joan enjoys visiting her neighbors who need companionship, and offers to help out when she can. "I was talking to ·a neighbor who's in a wheel chair, and she wanted to go to the park, but didn't think she could, I said I'd go with her. So off we went, with me holding on to the handle of the chair." While Joan depends on friends and church members to help with marketing and doctor appointments, she cares for herself with unusual efficiency. Her canned good. are organized alphabetically. She memorizes her clothing by touch so that she might launder them properly and wear them without mixing unflattering colors. Her apartment is filled with beauty · the result of her handmade wreaths and flower arrangements. ''A friend of mine told me I could make them. She helps me by · making the bows. I didn't think I could create something, but she showed me it could be possible." As many around her struggle with fears and depression, Joan offers her life as an example of what is pos- · sible. "I'm nobody important, but God. has taught me that He can use me to encourage others. If they can look at my life and see what God can do, then they have to believe that He can do anything."

"The agency received well over • · 3,500 complai nt,s of hair loss, hair · breakage, scalp irrilation and • burns." says Allen Halper, a compli ance officer with the FDA Office of Cosmetics and Colors in Washington, D.C. "I think it was an extraordinary example." . · An extraordinary example, that of consumers suffering adverse reactions to a widely available (back t~en) cosmetic product. Annually. the FDA gets about 200 complaints from ~onsurners reporting adverse reactions to commonly availahle cosmetic products. hut estimates those numbers t~ be the tip of the Iceberg . The true number is perhaps 50 time~ that amount because many · • complaints arc made directl y to product manufacturers ·who dt)n't have to share those complaints with the FDA. . · " I think that 's true. " Halper says of the estimates, detailed in inforrn a· lion the FDA provides to the public. "A lot of people don't think about calling the FDA. We suspect that, whic.h is why it 's all the more impor ~ tant1f we have a s.cvcrc com plaint to follow up and see just how wide spread it is." 1 For those who do think to c~ ll the FDA, their comments end up in a database detailmg reports of adverse rcactio·ns.

The Rio inc,ident, however, and·a similar fia sco involving a hair removal pr(1duct ' called Epii-Stop, which left s01he dsers witl1 chemical burns, also point to what some say arc shortcomings in the FDA's over~ig ht authority over cosmetics. · The FDA is only able lo regulate products after they arc on the mar· ket, and most often the only time the FDA gets involve(] is when complaints stan pouring in. That's not much help for consumers. who take for granted if it 's for sale. it has some rcgulawry agcm:y' s st amp of ·approval. "Fnods aren't approv~d either,'".

Dr. Davis recalls that the local woman promised great rates of interest on money invested wit!) her but thi s money harvest did not materialize . The local Ponzi "took in" a number of persons of fllOdeJt or lower income in the commu· nity, Dr. Davis says. The local Ponzi was not a native of Meigs County and those taken in by her promises failed to investigate her back' ground . She made· a lot of friends and was involved in organized religion ••en providing flowers for the altar at a local church on occasion . Dr. Davis remembers that his aunt, Genevieve Moore, was a clerk at the Red Anchor Department Store' at the time and she told him that one of her fellow workers and her sister were among the ma~y people victimized losing their hard earned savings. Eventually, the scam artist was sent to the Women's Reformatory at Mary$vi·lle .

"George Thompson ·a nd Frank Winegar have purchased a WillysKnight electric plant of Mr. Chase of Pomeroy. They expect to light up their two stores and also each of their homes. and we hear that they ;.,ill light up the two street corners where their store s are located. We believe this makes about eight electric plants in and about Cheshire and about 16 to 18 homes and places of business that have electric lights ." The above is taken from a 1922 edition of the Gallia Times, when Cheshire first go~ electricity. The -energy was provided by small gcner:: aling plants. · · The Thompson and Winegar : plant not only lit two stores and two · : )louses but for a shon time in 1922, • that plant also supp lied clectnc11y to Cheshire's two churches-Methodist and Baptist The light made possible more night shopping and more programs at the two churches. Prior to 1922 places were lit by kerosene or natural gas lights. It was also in 1922 that Winegar's opened the only new car agency in Cheshire history. For a brief time in the 1920s one could order a new Chevrolet car through the Wine gar catalog. The new car would arrive by train · a few weeks after it was ordered. The Winegar corner in 1922 held an ice cream parlor and a meal shop. The !alter was run by William Thompson and he specialized in fresh pork. The two churches in Cheshire were greatly disappointed on Dec. I, i922 to learn that Winegar and Thompson could no longer generate enough electricity to supply the two churches. Mr. Kirby and Dell Fife were then elected by the Baptist Church to solicit money from the community so that the church could purchase its own electric plant. In late 1922 a Knight-Willys plant was installed at the church. Also that December a number of Cheshire residents installed DeK~er :Meigs Community Calendar ~- The Community Calendar is published as a free service to non -profit ;groups wishing to announce meetings and special eve nts.

A large impressive funeral was held forGeorge W. Bing, who died at the age of 73 in Long Beach. Cal. Bing had been a soldier, teacher, and farmer in the Cheshire area for many years. He had moved to Long Beach in 1915. What was unique about the funeral was that Bing had wriuen his own eulogy. In May of 1922. Congressman I.M. Fosler was the speaker at the Decoration Day ceremonies at Grav.- el Bank Cemetery. Cheshire area men formed a _semi-pro basketball ream called the Cheshire All-Stars. .Cheshire High School fielded an · excellent debating learn and had their own orchestra. On Feb. 22. 1922. (George Washington's birthday) all the schools were dismissed in the afternoon for church services. The community had a Lyceum course in which a number of leelures, concens and literary programs were given. The humorist Clarence Burgderfer gave one of the programs and a play by the name of'Stcp Lively" was produced. Also coming to Cheshire that year was Princess Nadonis of the Ojibway Indl'an tribe. She was accompanied by Chief {(oonka White Eagle. Th6 chief was from the Winnebago tribe and he wore the headdress that had ·belonged to Chief Plenty Horses who was killed at the Bailie of the Lillie Bighorn. There was also a minstrel show.

Just as a new business needs a business plan, before a person can be.sin to make informed decisions uboutspecitic investments, he or she needs to have a clear idea of what they want to accomplish. Th.is requires discipline. However, avoiding the step will almost rertain' ly mean that the investor wi!llack the strength of conviction needed to pursue his cours~ later, when circumstances arise to cast doubts on what he is doing , Fundamentally. developing your personal investment objectives is a twostep process. First, an investor should make an honest effort at determining his or her future liiluncial neef(s. Will he or she be purchasing a house in com· ing years? Is he or she saving to pay for a college educatiorfany time soon? A person approaching retirement, with his home mortgage paid off, his ch,il· ··dren educated, dnd a comfortable retirement income awaiting him, will have entirely different financial goals than a young couple still in their child-raising years. · Being 100 percent accurate is not the aim of this e~ercise. It is intended to make the investor aware of the extent of linancial obligations that must be attended to and prudently planned for at some point on the horizon . The second step in unaemanding one's investment objectives is to make an honest assessment of one's risk tolerance. How much can you afford to do without. even temporarily, und how much time so you have to recover? Tim> is the great elixir for a succe.-ful investment program: All investment programs are long.term , despite the current fi~ation with · short-term results. The great advantage the young person has over the tinancially-comfortable older person approaching retirement is time. Whether it is time to ride out a poor investment period, or time to put together a ne,t-egg for the future, the clear advantage lies with the longer investing period, Difti:reitt goals and Jinuncial circumstunces require different investment strategies, but the time horizon is almost always the muin fac tor in choosing when and how to invest your money. It is well documented thut over long periods, stocks return more than bonds, treasury bills or money -market funds. But over the short ter~1. stocks arc more volatile than bonds and money funds . An inwstor may find that his greatest need presently is to have an e m~rgenL:y fund uvailnble for pos-· siblc medical treatments. Another might discover that he or she can Jive comfortably on his present income and huve excess cash available beyond fore seeable needs. A program of investing in stocks mny he inappropriate for rhe Former. but just the right ticket for the latter. The ch<•ices become clear only after personal exuminution of goals and objectives. Your investment professional can help you get started on the right truck .
