Dean Wright | OVP GALLIPOLIS — Community and business leaders from around Gallia gathered in Bossard Memorial Library Thursday for an evening of recognition by the Gallia Chamber of Commerce for endeavors of merit in 2017. The Gallipolis Railroad Freight Station Museum received the Chamber’s Beautification Award for ongoing rehabilitation of an old freight station on Third Avenue in Gallipolis. The Hocking Valley Railroad Freight Station was built in 1901 and remained a bustling freight depot under the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad for years before it was closed and condemned in 1981 by CSX, according to the awards ceremony. It became property of the O.O. McIntyre Park District before being turned over to the city. Museum Board President Jim Love was a former telegrapher at the station and began to organize a group in 2016 to preserve the building and turn it into a museum. The museum now has 70 members and a Board of Directors. It has a new slate roof, a roof extension, been repainted and has a new caboose sitting on a track outside. Board members anticipate adding a locomotive in the future. Bossard Memorial Library received the Chamber’s Community Involvement Award for serving as a community center.

This semester, the program is honoring Daniel Carroll, senior English major, Dr. Kent Williams, professor of English, William Plants, professor of History, and Klaire Smith, Class of 2016. Chair for the School of Arts and Letters Benjy Davies said each semester Spotlight on Success recognizes a student, faculty member and alumni who have gone above and beyond in their studies, teaching and career. “We started the spotlight on success to highlight the accomplishments and personalities that make up the School of Arts and Letters,” Davies said. “This initiative also helps us share the success of our colleagues, students and alumni with future students and the community.” Carroll is a senior English major from Liverpool, England and member of the men’s soccer team. He said studying at Rio has provided him with several academic and athletic opportunities. “I came to Rio to play at one of the highest levels of collegiate soccer and further my academic growth,” Carroll said. “One of my favorite things about campus is meeting kindred spirits in my fellow students and the faculty, growing together in academia and making memorable experiences.” The faculty spotlight is chosen by the faculty members of the School of Arts and Letters. This year, they chose two colleagues to receive the honor. Williams first came to Rio in 1984 and teaches English and literature courses. He said he enjoys sharing knowledge and learning with his students. “It’s an honor to be chosen by my colleagues for this spotlight,” Williams said. “I really enjoy working with my fellow faculty and my students. I love working at an institution that is so focused OBITUARIES ANN FELTY SYRACUSE — Ann Felty, 72, Syracuse, passed away at 3:10 p.m., Wednesday, January 24, 2018 in the Holzer Medical Center, Gallipolis. Born June 3, 1945 in the Antiquity community of Meigs County she was the daughter of the late Oris and Leona Mae Sayre Hubbard. She was a homemaker, a member of the Racine United Methodist Church and was a volunteer at the Syracuse Community Center. She married Robert “Bob” Felty on March 27, 1976 in Syracuse and he survives as well as two daughters, Kimberly (Jerry) Johnson, of Waverly, West Virginia and Shawnee Hansen, of Marietta, Ohio, granddaughters, Krystle (Justin) Storts, Jessica Johnson, and Natalie Marler, grandsons, Jason Greene and Nick Johnson, great-granddaughter, Brianna Greene, greatgrandsons Jase Johnson, Jessie Greene and Jayden Johnson, sister, Linda Courtesy | Rio Clockwise from top left, Professor of English Dr. Kent Williams, Professor of History William Plants, Class of 2016 Alumna Klaire Smith and Senior English Major Daniel Carroll. on learning and helping the students prepare for their futures.” Plants has been teaching history courses at Rio since 2005 and also serves as Chaplaincy Coordinator. He said he inherited his love of the subject, and enjoys the opportunity to discuss history with his students. “My parents both have a great love of history, so I got a double dose in my genetics. As a young boy, I was fascinated about times now past and ancient creatures. It’s an amazing experience to teach my students about history and share that fascination of the subject with them,” Plants said. “I’m very grateful to my colleagues for choosing me as one of the faculty spotlights for this semester. It’s a very humbling experience.” Smith, originally from Portsmouth, Ohio, received her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Rio in 2016. She is continuing her education as a Printer Training Program student at the Tamarind Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Smith said she is grateful to Rio for giving her opportunities to explore options in her field that set her on her career path. “At Rio, I took part in a Provost’s Academic Excellence Initiative and had the chance to assist the creation of lithographs for visiting artists as a part of the Little River Print Project. This had a huge impact on my career, because it gave me the opportunity to work in a collaborative print setting. This started me on a path of loving a collaborative environment,” Smith said. “I believe students should take the chance to go to workshops and events in their fields because there is so much information to gain and networking contacts to make. I’m glad Rio offers these kinds of opportunities for students.” Davies said he is proud of this semester’s winners and hopes to see them continue their success in their careers.

While it remains a positive way to go, something I recommend to everyone to make a little bit of difference in our world, I must admit that one idea I had was something of a flop, an example of thinking out of the box whose only redeeming feature was that it was merely a bump in the learning curve. Over the years in travels with my family, it’s not uncommon to stop at at a fast food establishment and get something to drink while on the road, even if it’s just into Gallipolis or other nearby communities. The worker attending to your order at the pickup window will generally ask, if it involves more than two beverages that can be accommodated by the cupholders below the car radio, Kevin if you want them in a cardboard Kelly container that’s been so much a part Contributing of the takeout food business for columnist decades. We’d accept the cupholder and after the cups were removed from the holder, the thing would sit in the back seat floor of the car for weeks, sometimes months, depending on how cleanly we were about the car’s interior. Eventually, accumulated cupholders would get rounded up. I found them handy when we’d order multiple drinks and the restaurant was out of the holders, so I’d keep one in the car for that purpose. But when I removed the other holders and stacked them up in the kitchen for eventual disposal — a kind of localized Leaning Tower of Pisa — it occurred to me that rather than toss them, maybe they can be used again by restaurants where we’d gotten them. If they were dry, still sturdy and able to hold takeaway pop and coffee cups, they’d be worth another round of usage. Hey, they say you can get a second brew out of coffee and tea pods once they’ve been used, so why not? That my first attempt at handing over used cupholders in a bid to recycle them was not a qualified success goes without saying. The restaurant workers politely but wordlessly took them and I went on my way. I think the second time I brought a pile of cupholders to the business they were even out of them — I knew because I had an order to fill that involved at least three requests for diet cola. I wasn’t looking for thanks or even a freebie in return (although I wouldn’t have turned down a coffee), just some kind of validation that my idea for expanding the perimeters of recycling had some worth. Instead, it became apparent a collective groan went up from the staff when they again spied that guy with silver hair removing stacks of cupholders from the back of his ‘97 Chrysler (this was a few years ago, I might add). Despite the encouragement I received from my sister and brother-in-law, Catherine and Frank Wolter, who thought I had the makings of a national movement on my hands, I came to the conclusion that the used cupholders I so diligently saved for re-use ended up in the restaurant’s trash dumpster. It later occurred to me there could have been very good reasons why the staff didn’t use the cupholders I brought to them. For one, there may have been a rule or two against re-use of the items for safety or liability reasons. Didn’t think they cared, given the time several years ago when a drink spilled onto my shirt because the lid was improperly secured and the only response I got to my yelp of surprise was the worker closing the window shut and turning her back to me. Fortunately, it was only pop. But to be fair, another restaurant worker who rang up my order at $6.66 was uncomfortable with leaving that amount as it stood, and so refigured it to total something less diabolical to the eye. Now you don’t get that kind of service every day. Secondly, my contributions could be of harm to the cardboard product industry, because the more cupholders I returned, the less the restaurant needed from the manufacturer (yeah, sure). And it could be that, with everything they have to do on the job, the restaurant staff didn’t know what to do with them in the absence of explicit regulations governing the use of cupholders, so it was easier just to consign them to the next load of trash. More likely, but who can say? I didn’t pursue the matter with management primarily because they were busy with the business of running their store — imagine that. Instead, I now take the used cupholders to the recycling bin near our house along with all of the other cardboard and plastic we don’t need. So much for the re-use idea. But perhaps not. My effort may have been the textbook example of the acronym FAIL — “First attempt in learning.” The idea wasn’t necessarily a disaster in that I re-directed used cupholders to the proper place rather than my first choice, so a system of trial and error for some ideas isn’t anything unusual. See KELLY | 7A THEIR VIEW A tribute to teaching This is a mid-year tribute to teaching—at all levels, K to college. The transfer of knowledge requires both the presence and attentiveness of the students. Two of my college instructors excelled in ensuring these prerequisites for learning. First day of class. A. J. Lohwater, 6’4” and attired in a three-piece suit, strode from his desk to our classroom door and locked it at precisely 8 a.m. Thirty seconds later a student found the door locked and rapped loudly on the frosted-glass portion of the door. No one moved. The “rapping” grew fainter and fainter until the student gave up and left. No one was ever again late for A.J.’s class. Lesson learned. But once in the classroom, the student must remain attentive. A fellow sitting next to me had slowly slipped into a deep sleep while our physics instructor was writing on the board. Soon the soft whispery sound of snoring filled the room. The professor peeked over his shoulder—much like a pitcher checking the runner on first base.

He has the student temperament and handles his lesson as though he had been trained under a master for years instead of running wild in the jungle. The need of advance work is the need of a lost world.” Rev. Sam saw potential in all of his students, but even the most gifted needed to be challenged. Rev. Sam also saw the spread of education across 19th-century America as “missionary work.” In an 1898 paper, he wrote: “The God of missions has put into the heart of his people to dot America all over with schools, colleges, and universities. Multitudes are trained to solve vexing problems and to make the world better.” Indeed, let us pay homage to the fundamental role education has played in the development of our nation. And let us also be humble enough to admit that we’re never too old to learn, will never cease to need great teachers, and that not all teaching takes place in the classroom.

Students covered a variety of topics; from historians to authors to famous groups of people. One individual did a project called “Wings of War” portraying military exploits from an aviation perspective. Another presented on the Salem Witch Trials from a historical perspective. Four students got together and planned a theatrical presentation called “Tinker Versus Des Moines: the Band of Freedom,” telling the story of the silent protest of students against the Vietnam War and the court ruling that defined constitutional rights of students. Riley Sanders did a presentation of Archimedes, who is famously known for the story of learning how much gold was in the king’s crown by using the displacement of water; which he discovered while taking a bath. “I did Archimedes because he informed fields like math, physics, the military, and engineering,” said Sanders. The projects were judged according to their process by which they learned about their subject, their presentation boards, and their presentation of the material to the judges.

In Mason County, visitors can follow a one-ofa-kind trail that stitches together communities with the unique language of quilt squares. The first quilt trail in West Virginia began in Mason County in 2001. Currently, there are 30 quilt squares on area barns spread across multiple driving trails. Denny Bellamy, director of the Mason County Convention and Visitors Bureau, credits local quilters Mollie Yauger and Jane Coles with helping jump start the project, along with help from Dwight Jeffrey and other local volunteers, including students from the Mason County Career Center who helped cut the wooden squares. He said the trail evolved over a period of time with the most recent quilt square dedicated a few of years ago. He added, grants were received to complete the trail without any cost to the taxpayer. Quilt squares cost around $300, each. “The 30 we built didn’t cost the owners a dime,” Bellamy said. “We bought the material, we bought the paint and went to the carpentry class at the career center who built all the quilt squares…then those went to Mollie Yauger’s farm, Dwight (Jeffery) sketched the design and Mollie and Jane’s quilt club members would paint them.” Bellamy added, local high school students would put up the squares as part of their community service fulfillment for graduation. “The process of building it (the trail) was over a period of years,” Bellamy said. “It takes time and you’ve got all these people working on it. It (the trail) was all done with volunteers and then we taught everyone else how to do it in the state.” As the trail grew so has the interest. Bellamy is in the process of completing a new guide to the trail, complete with histories of the quilt squares and GPS coordinates. Though the trail has been there for awhile, the way to find it is evolving. “We’ve got to promote this,” he said. “Its gone from people following maps to following phones.” He said, when those residents agreed to place the quilt squares on their barns or homes as part of the official trail, they signed a waiver allowing people to visit the property. He added, this is a unique opportunity for those people to visit Photos by Mason County CVB | Courtesy The Interwoven Star quilt square, located at 10568 Black Oak Road, Fraziers Bottom, home of Fonda Burris.

The first barn to participate belongs to Yauger and her husband Raymond and has a Maple Leaf design, located 12 miles south of Point Pleasant on U.S. 35. A square representing a log cabin rests at the West Virginia State Farm Museum. A pineapple quilt square greets visitors to the Mason County Tourism Center with the pineapple being a traditional symbol of hospitality. This underscores how the quilt square visually represents concepts and meaning to quilters and homesteads. A Star Lily square is on the Johnson homestead at 9343 Ripley Road, Point Pleasant. This design was reportedly chosen for the thousands of lilies that once bloomed on their property. Then there are some quilt squares that need no explanation like, a Modernized Milky Way square which appears at the Cottrill dairy farm, at 10273 Ohio River Road, West Columbia; or, the Grandmother’s Daisy square that is at Bob’s Market and Greenhouses at 211 Second Street in Mason. There’s even a Hope of Hartford square on the Hartford Community Center Building along W.Va. 62 north in Hartford. The trail goes on to include, a Delectable Mountains square located on the USDA Agriculture Service Center on First Street in Point Pleasant. An Indian Arrowheads square on the Simon Farm at 201 Ohio River Road, Point Pleasant. A Bicentennial square on the Lanier property at 55 The Crown of Thorns quilt square, located at 13580 Cornstalk Road, Southside, home of Sherry Goodall. Staffhouse Road, Point Pleasant. A God’s Eye square is on the Burris farm at 5200 Seven Mile Ridge, Apple Grove and more. The list goes on and on. For those who wish to find Dreama’s Star, Turkey Tracks, Postage Stamp, Hunter’s Star, Lucky Star, Hole in the Barn Door, Mariner’s Compass, Star of Bethlehem, the county’s Mail Pouch barns and more, stop by the tourism center located at the foot of the Bartow Jones Bridge for the official map.

According to the US EPA, Americans spend 90 percent of their time indoors breathing in pollutants that may be 2 to 5 times higher in concentration than the outdoors. Exposure to tobacco smoke, pet allergens, carbon monoxide from faulty furnaces and hot water heaters, radon, mold and poor sanitation can all cause health problems. One of the most concerning and asked about indoor air pollutants is mold. Mold is a common type of fungus that thrives in moist, warm conditions both outdoors and indoors. It is a necessary part of the world we live in. Anything that comes from a plant or an animal is broken down by mold. Usually mold appears as fuzzy or slimy shaped dots in several possible colors – blue, green, yellow, brown, gray, black or white. Each colony of mold growths produce tiny, microscopic “seeds” called spores. These spores can travel through the air until landing on a moist surface where they begin to grow and multiply. When humans come in contact with the mold spores several different reactions can occur, some more severe than others. You may develop allergic reactions such as wheezing, asthma attacks, sinus congestion, dry, hacking cough, burning or watery eyes, sneezing fits, bloody noses, skin rashes or hives, headaches, memory loss, mood changes, and even body aches. Some people are unaffected by mold but others who have a mold allergy can have severe reactions from even a small amount of mold spores. Those at higher risks for severe health effects from mold are infants, children, immune compromised patients, pregnant women, individuals with existing respiratory conditions, and the elderly. If you can see mold growth and/or smell a musty odor, you likely (moisture) levels between 40-60 percent. Remember to clean the collection bucket and condensation coils regularly. Promote good drainage away from your house by removing leaves and vegetation from around the foundation and cleaning out rain gutters. Toss or recycle old books and newspapers. If left in damp places, such as basements, they can quickly become moldy. If you find mold in your home you can safely clean it up on your own. The following are tips for cleaning or removing visible mold. Stop the moisture. Fix plumbing leaks and other water intrusion problems before cleaning. Remember, mold has to have moisture to grow. Scrub mold off hard surfaces with detergent and water. DO NOT MIX BLEACH AND AMMONIA CONTAINING PRODUCTS. The mixture creates a toxic vapor.

In the summer season use an air damp. Keep the humidity mold from reoccurring. Straight bleach will not be more effective and will likely damage the surfaces. Let these areas dry naturally. This extended drying time is important to prevent future mold growth. Surfaces should be completely dry within one to two days. Absorbent or porous materials, such as ceiling tiles, carpet and drywall, may have to be thrown away if they become moldy. Mold can grow on or fill in any porous materials, so the mold may be difficult or impossible to remove completely. During the cleaning process, avoid exposing yourself or others to mold. Wear old clothes and shoes that you can launder or throw away after the cleanup work. Wear a mask or respirator, in addition to goggles and gloves. Turn off your furnace and air conditioner and cover ducts and doors to contain mold spores. Steve Swatzel, RS, is director of Environmental HealthReach at the Meigs County Health Department.

The Eastern boys basketball team — which sat at the bottom of the TriValley Conference Hocking Division after suffering five straight setbacks in league play — defeated league-leading Waterford by a 54-46 count in overtime on Friday night at ‘The Nest’, ending the the Wildcats’ streak of six straight TVC Hocking wins. The Eagles (5-8, 2-7 TVC Hocking) led just once in regulation, at 2-0, with the Wildcats (7-4, 7-2) jumping out to an 11-5 lead by the end of the first quarter.

This is definitely the biggest win for the program since I’ve been here. “The kids are enjoying this, they’re celebrating this and I know this is very important to them, but this is a win for the community,” Hill added. “We have been wanting to give them something to be proud of, they got behind us tonight and our kids fed off of it.

Sometimes that comes down to a decision, if the players are going to choose to get better or revert. Consistency is the mark of a great ball club.” For the game, Eastern shot 23-of-62 (37.1 percent) from the field, including 2-of-11 (18.2 percent) from beyond the arc. Meanwhile, Belpre shot 20-of-46 (43.5 percent) from the field, including 6-of-15 (40 percent) from deep. At the charity stripe, EHS was 15-of-22 (68.2 percent), including 9-of10 in the final quarter.

Both teams assisted on 11 baskets, but the hosts claimed advantages of 20-to-6 in steals and 3-to-1 in rejections. Eastern turned the ball over 14 times in total, with 10 of its turnovers split evenly over the middle two quarters. Bel- pre gave the ball away 29 times in the contest. “Our transition game helped us out some, and hitting foul shots, having a little higher percentage tonight helped some,” said Coach Parker. “We made some shots finally and we made better decisions down the stretch. (Belpre) had more turnovers, I believe last time we played turnovers were about even. We did do a better job taking care of the basketball, so I think that helped quite a bit.” Eastern senior Madison Williams paced the victors with 23 points and a game-best seven steals. Fellow senior Elizabeth Collins came in with a double-double of 15 points and 15 rebounds, to go with a pair of rejections. EHS junior Alyson Bailey dished out a gamehigh five assists and scored 14 points, eight of which came in the fourth quarter.

Curstin Griffin led the guests with 13 points, followed by Ray and Kyna Waderker with 11 each. Sydney Spencer had 10 points for BHS, while Abbey LaFatch recorded six points and a team-best four assists. Lakin Hupp’s six rebounds were a teamhigh for Belpre, while Spencer picked up a pair of steals and Waderker rejected one shot. This marks Eastern’s second win in as many nights, after edging Meigs by a 71-70 count on Wednesday. “We did exhaust a lot of energy last night,” said Coach Parker. “When you play at the intensity level that we played at last night, that really does drain you, not just physically, but mentally. I had a small feeling we were going to come in and be a little sluggish, so when you can fight through that and pull off a win it’s still a pretty good night.” After a trip to Miller on Saturday for the Lady Eagles’ third game in four days, Eastern will return to action at Wahama on Monday.

Visiting South Gallia surged to a 25-2 advantage in the first quarter and rolled to a 77-25 victory over Ohio Valley Christian in a non-conference boys basketball contest between Gallia County programs. Eight different players reached the scoring column as SGHS (4-9) made 31 field goals — including eight shots from beyond the arc — in the contest. “We wanted to come in tonight and set the tempo,” SGHS head coach Kent Wolfe said. “We played them about three weeks ago and we knew they would be a little better. They were much improved. But we needed to set the tempo. We needed to make it a track meet and get it up the floor. We were able to succeed with that. “I was glad we were able to get everyone in the game. Overall, we were able to get some real quick and easy transition shots. We got some fast break shots and we scored off of turnovers.” Turnovers proved costly for the Blue and Gold as they committed 21 giveaways in the first half. The Defenders (2-11) were provided their lone field goal in the first quarter by junior Andrew Dubs. The hosts increased their offensive production in the second period, as OVC managed 11 markers in the second quarter to cut the gap to 45-13 at the intermission. The Red and Gold maintained control in the second half, as they outscored the hosts 32-12 en route to victory. Braxton Hardy ended the night with a gamehigh 24 points, including two from long range. Curtis Haner followed with 22 markers, including four three-pointers. Eli Ellis was next with 10 points, while Jared Burdette and Bryce Nolan each had six points. Jaxxin Mabe and Austin Day were next with four markers and three points, respectively.

The victory for South Gallia served as a season sweep the Rebels downed the Defenders 83-27 on Dec. 29, 2017, in Mercerville. “We play the tournament in about three weeks and we’ve got 10 games left to play,” said Coach Wolfe. “Every one of the teams we have on our schedule, we have to play our A-game. If we don’t, we won’t win them. But I like where we are at right now.” “I think our success comes from passing the ball and getting better looks,” Wolfe added. “We did that tonight.” OVC made 12 field goals — including three trifectas — in the contest. Six different Defenders reached the scoring column as Dubs led the way with eight points. Justin Beaver was next with six markers, while Bryce Gruber chipped in three points. Asher Peck, Miciah Swab and Levi Anderson concluded the scoring for the home team with two points each. Defenders head coach Steve Rice assessed his team’s performance following another tough outcome. “We are doing some things better than we were doing at the beginning of the season,” Rice said. “We still have a long way to go. We are a work in progress.” OVC returned to action Friday as it hosted Pike Christian.

While older people are at a greater risk for glaucoma, this group of eye diseases that gradually steals a person’s sight can also affect young people, including children. Childhood glaucoma is a rare condition, one that, according to the Glaucoma Research Foundation, may be inherited, caused before birth by incorrect development of the eye’s drainage system. The increasing intraocular pressure that results damages the optic nerve, which is responsible for transmitting visual information from the retina to the brain. Approximately 1 out of every 10,000 babies born in the United States are born with glaucoma. While it’s suspected millions of people unknowingly have glaucoma, parents can look for certain indicators to determine if their child has childhood glaucoma. Enlarged eyes, cloudiness of the cornea and a sensitivity to light are all symptoms of child-hood glaucoma. While those symptoms don’t guarantee a child has glaucoma, their presence should lead parents to consult a physician. So what’s the outlook for childhood glaucoma patients? In an uncomplicated case, surgery is often successful at correcting structural defects. Some cases may call for medication as well as surgery. Because children are involved, parents must understand what treatment can entail. Treatment may involve the use of topical eye drops or oral medications. These treatments can work in one of two unique ways. Treatment can help decrease fluid production inside the eye or increase the exit of fluid from the eye. Regardless of which applies to a particular child, the goal of treatment is to lower pressure in the eye, which both treatments have proven successful at doing. When undergoing surgery, pediatric glaucoma patients will likely undergo one of two main types of surgeries. Which type of surgery will depend on the doctor, who will base his recommendation on the severity of the glaucoma and the general health of the affected eye. Unless eye pressure is especially high or the optic nerve is especially damaged, the doctor will likely recommend laser surgery. During such surgery, a powerful but tiny laser beam of light is used to make several small scars in the eye’s drainage system, also know as its trabecular network. While it might seem counterintuitive to create scars, those scars actually increase the flow of fluid out of the eye. Filtering surgery, also known as micro surgery, involves creating a drainage hole. Filtering surgery is often the second option, one recommended if laser surgery has not successfully lowered eye pressure. Even after successful surgery for pediatric glaucoma, parents should know that lost vision cannot be restored. However, it’s entirely possible and common for pediatric glaucoma patients to live full lives, and thousands of children do just that each and every year.

While in some cases that could be cause for celebration, in this case it is because the federal agency has already declared the animal to be extinct (in 2011), and acknowledges that it has likely been extinct for at least 70 years. The removal takes effect on Feb. 18; obviously extinct animals and plants are no longer threatened, and cannot be protected (Note that none of this affects the status of the Florida cougar, an endangered cougar subspecies found in southern Florida). Using the words “cougar,” “puma,” and “mountain lion” interchangeably, according to the USFWS the last confirmed Eastern Puma was trapped in Maine in 1938. All of Ohio and West Virginia, the east coast from Georgia to Maine, and the Midwest were within the historical range of the Eastern Cougar. Mountain lions have been Mountain lions have been gone from our part of the country for well over a hundred years.
