Lawmakers want constitution to limit eminent domain Bv JUUE CARR SMYTH AP STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT COLUMBUS - Ohio voters may get to decide ne1lt fall whether to restrict government's ability to seize private property for economic development State lawmakers are considering acting to put a constitutional amendment on the November 2007 ballot before the end of the year that would keep governments from using economic development as a justification for seizing people's homes. Responding to · recommendations of a task force the Legislature formed in the wake of the U.S . Supreme Court's controversial Kelo decision, the amendment also would forbid gtJVemments from using the increased revenue they might make in ceding land to a private developer as evidence that the property is "blighted." "That was· e1\actly what was the heart of the matter in the Kelo situation," said Jason Warner, an aide to Rep. Bob Gibbs, a task force member pushing the amend·ment. "Government was ' going into areas where it was not necessarily blighted, but they could make more money off of the property as a shopping mall than as a residential development." Gibbs and Sen.

In the winter months, according to one theory, a SAD sufferer's body will produce "stay awake" substances - like the hor·mone cortisol and certain neurotransmitters - until the early morning hours. Then, after he or she stays awake half the night, the body fin ally increases production of sleep-inducing melatonin . This production, though, continues until midday, so the sufferer has trouble getting out of bed until I0 or later. ln short, the person's biological clock, or circadian rhythm, is "all messed up." There is a good deal of research showing that circadian rhythm disruption is linked to depression. Typically people with SAD only have episodes of depression during the months when they get less light exposure. This sounds like the situation you describe . You also seem to meet the criteria of having these symptoms for at least two years in a row. SAD E-911 fellow lawmakers of their intention to introduce the amendment in memos issued last week. Grendell 's memo said he is crafting a bill for introduction by next week to complement the proposed amendment that would lay out specific procedures for government takings of private land, including the detinition of blight. In July, the Ohio Supreme Court unanimously ruled in the landmark Norwood case that. pri vaie development on its own - even when it will improve economic conditions - isn't a public use allowed under the Ohio Constitution. Across the nation, property rights advocates praised the ruling, the nation's first since the Supreme Court said in Kelo v. City of New London, Conn., that governments had such a right. Many were outraged by the decision, which 'they viewed as turning on its head the.concept of eminent domain as a tool for the public good. Many states responded by proposing constitutional restrictions on the practice. Such propositions passed this mooth in Arizona, Michigan, Florida and New Hampshire, among other states. In California, where and environmentali sts politicians saw their state 's proposal as a threat to natural areas, the issue failed.

"This amendment wouldn't appear on the ballot until November. 2007 anyway, so we don't really see any usefulness in rushing it to the ballot. right now · when we' ve just completed a lengthy election cycle," he said.

Kevin Coughlin, who is leading the eminent domain issue in the Senate, said he and Grendel! are in conversations with Senate leadership over the timing of the vote - if it is taken at alL He noted that the task force's recommendation to advance a constitutional change survived heated debate by only one vote, and that no decision has been made on whether the amendment should move forward at all. Ruling Republicans lost ·one Senate seat and seven House seats from their majorities on Election Day, which could be a factor because authorizing an amendment requires a three-fifths majority of both chambers, he said. "While this is not a partisan issue, you can bet some of the cities are going to view any constitutional change as ·an encroachment on their home rule, so in the minds of Democrats property rights go out the wio- dow," Coughlin said. Susan Cave, executive director of the Ohio Municipal League, said cities' ability to seize property under eminent domain is already sufficiently limited in Ohio. particularly following the Norwood case. "Now that we've ·had a Ohio fairly sweeping Supreme Court decision , which really covered every inch of the issue, it seems they' re just doing something that they probably don't need to do," she said. "There are a number of protections in place and they've been used very successfully, I must say. by the other side." She said cities fear some traditional uses of eminent domain, such as running sewer and water lines to new subdivisions, could be viewed as economic development and stopped under such a measure. Rep. Bill Seitz, who cochaired the task force with Grendell , said passing the issue during the lameduck session would give opponents of the measure ample time if they want to put together their own amendment.

POMEROY - Jeanne Bowen presented the rrogram, "Poets Laureate o the United States" at the recent · meeting pf Middleport Literary Club, held at the Pomeroy Library. . . . Bowen said the term :'Poet Laureate" originated · in 17th-century England, with the 'monarch or prime minister appointing an official court poet whose job it was· to turn out verses for special occasions.

The men were killed by Tuesday's explosion more than a half-mile below the surface at the . Halemba mine in southern Poland. "Rescue workers 'recovered 15 more bodies," said Zbigniew Madej , spokesman for the state-run Coal Co. Attempts ·to reach the buried miners were halted repeatedly after high con -. centrations of gas raised fears of a second blast. ':Any spark could cause another explosion and more victims," rescue · worker Boguslaw Ozo g said earlier. Previously. teams had recovered six bodies from the scene of the blast, said Zbigniew Madej. spokesman for the mine operator. Another two bodies had been found, but remained underground. Those two bodies were amonth the 15 recovered early Thursday. ·President Lech Kaczynski surveyed the site Wednesday and met with family members, pledging a full investigation. He canceled planned trips to Georgia and Romania this week. "I should be here ... even though these were very important visits," he said. Labor Minister Anna Kalata promised swift financial assistance for the families. The miners, aged between 21 and 59, were trying to retrieve valuable equipment that was abandoned months ago in a section of the Halemba mine that .was closed because of dangerously high gas concentrations. Labor unions complain that a lack of investment · and massive layoffs in recent years have resulted in falling safety standards at the·nation's mines. '· KIEV, Ukraine - Filled with nostalgia and perhaps a little bitterness, a few thousand people · gathered Wednesday on the capital's central square to mark the second anniversary of the Orange Revolution , an · event that many in Ukraine say failed to live up to its bright promises. The leader of the mass protests, President Viktor Yushchenko, celebrated the day away from the crowds, for whom he rs no longer a hero. Instead, he gathered supporters and diplomats at his presidential palace to defend what he still insists was a defining moment for the country. "Two years ago. we. made a revolution not only on the square, but also in ·our hearts and sou Is," Yushchenko, wearing an orange tie, told his guests as he raised a glass of cham pagne for Ukraine.

The giveaway is part of a promotion for Wendy's new double-melt hamburger that has pepper jack cheese, cheddar sauce, bacon and sliced jalapenos between two hamburger patties. The move to gift cards will allow the company to track usage more easily than with gift certificates and show what customers are buying, said Nancy Hagemeier, Wendy's brand director. said. Customers will be able to buy them in denominations ranging from $5 to $200. Beginning next month, customers will be able to go online to register their card, see their uansactions, check their. balance and add to the balance, Hagemeier said. Wendy's also figures to add a reward program that can be used with the card. Hagemeier said research shows the cards' have a greater appeal to younger customers who also like to give them as gifts. .

JOHNSON ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER CHICAGO - Two big government-funded studies on back surgery for painful herniated disks show no clear-cut reason to choose an operation over other treatment. • The pain and ph}sical function of the patients, who were suffering from a condition called sciatica, . improved significantly after two years whether or not they had surgery. However, neither strategy offered complete relief . The results indicate patients should choose which treatment they get for the ailment, the researchers said. "In hack surgery for this particular condition, there's actually a choice," said lead author Dr. James Weinstein of Dartmouth Medical School. "If you don't want the risk of surgery, you can do watchful waiting" and still get well. · The condition involves disk cartilage · bulging between vertebrae in the lower · spine and pressing against a nerve. It can cause excruciating burning pain called sciatica, radiating from the lower back into the legs; patients often have difficulty walking. · About 250.000 Americans have disk surgery for sciatica each year, while another quarter-million instead choose physical therapy, painkillers or rest until they fee l better. The surgery $6,000, costs about Weinstein said. The findings, publiShed in Wednesday 's Journal of the American Medical Association, are the first from a big governmentfunded research project on spine surgery. Patients were treated at 13 spine centers in II states. One study involved 472 patients aged 42 on average who were followed for two years after being randomly assigned to surgery or noninvasive treatment, which included education, physical therapy or painkillers. Surgery involved removing .part of the bulging disc in a standard operation· often done on an outpatient basis.

'I • ~SSOCIATEO PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON - Soon to be in charge of Congress, Democrats are looking to chip away at billions of dollars in payments to the health insurance companies that run Medicare' s managed care programs. The Cuts could range up to about $27.6 billion over five years, an arpount the industry says would reduce the number of managed care plans serving seniors and the disabled. Under traditional Medicare, health care providers bill the government for the services they .perform. But with "Medicare Advantage" managed care, the insurers get a set amount per person. Then . 'the insurers reimburse the people who provide the care. Many health care experts believe that mJnaged care leads to a greater focus on prevention and better coordinat.ion of ;ervices. And this focus. with an emphasis on providing only the .care that' s necessary, saves money for taxpayers and patient\. But Democrats suggest the in surer; are more interested in making a profit than in saving taxpayers money. The incentive to keep co~ts ,low also gives in ~urers an incentive to >crimp on care, the Democrats ;,ay. For years. Democrats ha ve 'aid the Republican- led Congress intentionally overpaid insurers so they could offer lower costs and more benefits than are 'offeTP.d through traditional Medicare. "We have strong evidence now that there are very. very large overpayments to insurance companies," said Rep. John Dingell, · DMich., who will probably serve as chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Dr. Mark McClellan, who oversaw the Medicare program until just last month, said the payments to insurers make the program more affordable to beneficiaries. Their premiums would go up if the government subsidtes went down, he said. He also said that the plans offer patients the promise of more effective care than they get through traditional Medicare. For example, many .diabetics in managed care undergo aggressive counseling and testing of their blood sugar levels to help them avoid costly complications down the road, such as kidney disease or stroke. They often don' t get that kind of coordinated care in the fee-for-service setting, hti'said. "It would be a real shame for beneficiaries in Medicare not to have access to that;" McClellan said. ~ · they .~.might be.__~~~ •· voted into our 2007 ....I Pet Calendar! • ~ ... •• •• , 2 DIY ONlY SAlE 40% Off all In stock pictures .

It was little more than a week before Thanksgiving, and the end was near. Come Thursday, one of them will be .the guest of . honor on the Wilhelm family dinner table, and another will be in a freezer awaiting Christmas. The other 21 have been sold and will be on other dinner tables throughout this holiday season. "The taste and texture are by far the best," said Kim Wilhelm, who along with her children has cared for the birds the past six . months on the family's 28acre farm outside Canal Winchester, about 15 miles southeast of Columbus. Because they raise almost everything they need, the family's Thanksgiving dinner grocery list is a short one: dinner rolls and cranberry sauce. The Wilhelms are living their dream of a self-sustainable lifestyle. But they wouldn't be if not for a rough patch five years ago. Roger and · Kim Wilhelm's painting business went bankrupt after three major .customers failed to pay for jobs. The couple paid for things with credit cards and took out a second mortgage to get through the lean times, but new business never emerged. They lost their house in the Columbus suburbs and a new pickup. · Ther moved , to Kim's father s farm, which had fallen into disrepair since her mother died.

David said he likes the young bull named Meatloaf, a moniker that no doubt foreshadows its future. "When an animal is meant· to be food, we're going to eat it," Kim Wilhelm said. "At least we know they've been raised in a healthy environment, and they were happy and well cared for." The 23 turkeys, ranging from bourbon reds to royal palms and blue slates, have been on the farm since they arrived as day-old chicks. The males all go by Tom, the females Henrietta, Missy said. · "There are just roo many to name," she said. Of all the animals, the turkeys are probably the easiest to care for, Missy said. "We just let them eat and get fat." Less than a week before the holiday, the birds were trucked off to an Amish farm where they were "processed." The family loves the lifestyle, Kim Wilhelm said, but they worry about the constant pressure in the neighborhood to develop. They fear that. open land atross the road one day will grow houses instead of corn. It's a challenge making a small farm financially successful, but the family is committed. Kim Wilhelm likes what ,a self-sustaining lifestyle can teach her children. David, for instance, can learn valuable. lessons as he nurses a duckling back to health in his bedroom. He named it Lucky Duck because its· six siblings were killed by an "evil rat." Luck can carry a duck only so far, though, especially at the Wilhelm home-. Lucky Duck is a Muscovy duck and has a very tasty, steaklike meat. When he is well enougb, Lucky Duck will go back outside. And when he is big enough," Kim Wilhelm said, even Luc~y Duck will be plucked.

Johnson set a club record with 260 yards receiving and a pair of touchdowns in a loss to San Diego. theri had 190 yards and three more touchdowns in a 3116 win at New Orleans last Sunday. The 450 yards in back -to-hack games are the most in league history. It's what he's wanted the whole season. "We're being more the aggressor, offensively, regardless of what the coverage is,'? Johnson said Wednesday. "That makes it a lot more fun out there." The first eight games were no fun at all.

The Daily Sentinel BY Douo TUCKER www.mydailysentinel.com ---- ASSOCIATED PRES& KANSAS CITY, Mo . The first time Denver and Kansas City met this season, the final score seemed more like a baseball score than one fitting of these- ancient rivals. The Broncos finally prevailed 9-6 in overtime in the lowest-scoring affair in the 93 games these teams rivals from AFL days have played. Winless after their season openers, both teams were tentative all day long, seemingly unsure of what their offensive identify might be. The Chiefs · managed only two field goals in their first game in five years without Trent Green at quarterback. He was back home beginning a long rehab from a severe concussion sustai ned the week before, '!nd backup Damon Huard, mostly · unknown even to Chiefs coaches, was under center. First-year head coach Herm Edwards was careful not to ask him to do too much. Denver was als.o in a conservative . frame of mind, coming off a season-opening loss at St. Louis where the Broncos committed five turnovers. Jake Plummer, who'd thrown three interceptions, seemed to have as short a leash as Huard's. But now as they prepare .for the rematch Thursday night in the first game ever telecast on the NFL Network, · a · great deal seems different, and nine points may not get the halftime lead. Green is back and how - engineering a fourthquarter game-winning drive against Oakland last week and showing no rust from his I 0-week layoff. Plummer is still making mistakes, but the Broncos are scoring. They blew a a 17 -point lead at home last week in a 35-27 loss to San Diego that lifted the Chargers (8-2) one game over Denver (7-3) and two ahead of KC (6-4) in the . , '· Entertainment Briefs FAC exhibit now open APphOIO AFC West. Nobody is predicting another baseball-like score in the final leg of the NFL's historic first Thanksgiving tripleheader. "When we played thern in Denver, we were still in shock over losing Trent," said wide receiver/kick returner Dante Hall. "It was the second game of the year and it's always hard going into Denver. We hadn't won. We were still getting a feel for our new coach, getting a feel for what we were going to be on offense antt on defense. "Now we know what N f L• W e • .& EK kind of team we are. We know 'what to expect from Herm. There's no more feeling and guessing and trying to figure things out. We know exactly how to go about our business." One of the Chiefs' biggest improvements has been on defense, although that may depend in part on whether linebacker Derrick Johnson is able to get back from the ankle injury that's sidelined him the last two games. , 'They're playing better," · said Plummer. "They're not giving up as many points.

Saban did, too. "In the back of my mind, it was an inspiring challenge that I knew I would like to try eventually,:' Saban said. "I enjoyed my time at Michigan State and at LSU, but after we won a national championship, I felt like it was time for the. next frontier in my career." On Christmas Day two years ago, S.aban agreed to a five-year deal worth at least $22.5 milliol) to lead the Miami Dolphins. Saban will be back in the state where he spent nearly one-third of his career Thursday, when the .Detroit Lions (2-8) host Miami (46) in their annual Thanksgiving game. "We spent 10 years at· Michigan State - five as a head coach and five as coordinator and I' II always love that school and the friends I still have there," Saban said . "It will be good to see some familiar faces, but first and foremost, I'm focused on our task of wirt·ning games." . The Dolphins are doing that, just as they did at the end of last season . Saban closed his first year as a head coach with six straight victorie s, finishing 9-7 - a year after the Dolphins lost 12 games. . Miami has won three straight this season, helped m part by former Lions quarterback Joey Harrington, and cornerback Renaldo Hill can sense the same momentum Saban created' in turnarounds for the Spartans and Tigers. "He's getting more and more people on board who know what he 's about and how he has done it in the past," said Hill, who played · for Saban at Michigan State. "H.e has won everywhere he has been. . "It's going to get done here, definitely." Rod Marinelli's former boss said similar things about him . Falcons president and general manager Rich McKay was the general manager in Tampa Bay while Marinelli operated in near obscurity as a defensive line coach, helping the Buccaneers win the Super Bowl in 2003. · "Rod was great coach for us in Tampa and I think he 's going to be successful as a head coach in Detroit," Mcl<ay said. ''I never thought he got enough credit in Tampa for what he accomplished in terms of developing and managing players, · and ·getting his unit to achieve at the high est level." Marinelli 's path to being a · head coach for the first time might've been slowed by the Buccaneers, who blocked more than one team's attempt to hire him as a defensive coordinator. " It was a very· uncom- Shanahan - said. 'Tt ";as almost completely torn.'

For the league to let Kansas City have the game seems to be an ·. honor for owner Lamar '· Hunt, who's been arguing for years that it's unfair for only Detroit and Dallas host Thanksgiving . . games. · "Without question, this is a salute to Lamar Hunt . for all he's done for the NFL," said Chiefs president Carl Peterson. a fortable situation because I consider Rod a good friend," McKay acknowiedged. "We never wanted to him to feel held back in any way, and ·we tried to communicate that with him, but it was difficult because he had other opportunities." · Now, Marinelli is trying to stress the importance of the chances the Lions .have over the final six weekseven though they're essentially eliminated from play- · off contention. He intends 'to put pressure on his players to perform by Jelling them know their future may be elsewhere if they . finish poorly. " In my . own mind, in , . their mind, this is like playoff football - right now," he said. "We've · got to learn to play under pressure. "You're evaluating all the time for next year." Detroit center Dominic Raiola said Marinelli has made .that clear. . 'The message is out that if you're not going to perform 10 these last six games, you're not going to be here," Raiola said. "I · think everybody knows · what coach wants, and if you don't do what he ' wants, you won ' t be here." · Even though Detroit quarterback Jon Kitna would rather be .Jeading a playoff pu~h , he said all is not lost.

BY JAIME ARON ASSOCIATED PRESS IRVING , Texas - The theory was sound. Troy Aikman would throw deep passes, Joey Galloway would track them down and the Dallas Cowboys would rack up points and wins. The reality was a disaster. Galloway never caught a pass from Aikman. They played only one game together, the 2000 opener, and neither was around for the end of it. Aikman was knocked out early with a concussion and Galloway went out late with a tom knee ligament that ended his season. By the time the receiver returned in 200 I , the quarterback had become a broadcaster. Although Galloway went on to put up solid statistics for Dallas, he was traded to Tampa Bay for Keyshawn Johnson _in May 2004. With him went the bad memory of a toiled plan, as well as the two first-round picks and $42 million contract Jerry Jones spent to acquire him from Seattle. Between Johnson and Terrell Owens, receivers have made enough news for Cowboys fans to have. forgotten abo\lt Galloway. Well, they'll get a big reminder Thursday when he and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-7) pl11y Dallas (6-4) in the annual Thanksgiving game at Texas Stadium. Galloway said Tuesday he is looking forward to the game for the chance to catch up with some friends and to take part in the tradition surrounding the holiday game. As for reminisCing about. his days wearing the star on his helmet, he's as willing to forget about them as ·anyone else. "[ truly think . if we could've won more games in Finally, a meaningful Thanksgiving game Dallas, it would've been fun," he said. " I think it was the losing that always sours the taste in your mouth." Of course, the whole Aikman thing factored in, too, compounded by the fact Galloway was brought in to replace Michael Irvin as the team's top receiving threat. · "URfortunately, I dido 't get a chance to play with Troy long enough for us to get on the same page," Galloway said. "That's something I regret, but it's not something I can do anything about." Galloway says similar things about his entire career. He's had about 16 starting quarterbacks combine on hi s 588 career catch· es, a revolving. door that's kept him from .developing the kind of bond Marvin · Harrison has with Peyton Manning, or even Terry Glenn with Drew Bledsoe. "Somebody told me last week that in my career CL.ASSIFIED games.

"It's not our mind-set. Every time l get down there, I'm ready to punch, it in. Every time K2 (tight end Kellen Winslow) gets down there, we're ready to punch it in . . "That's just how we as the players think. When we get down . there we don 't play for three points. 'I don't play special teams. I'm not a field goal .kicker. When I get in the red zone I wa1lt six." Edwards isn ' t the first Browns·player to be critical Of Cleveland 's lack of offensive imaginatio~. Following a toss to Cincinnati in Week 2, Winslow criticized Cleveland's coaches for not playing him in key thirddown situations and for being \oo conservative. Winslow later apologized . for hi s rant. Now, Edwards is complaining about the team' s frugality with the football - especially within striking distance of the end zone. "We've gotten down there and it's like, ' Hey, we're here, OK, we know we're go ing to get three (points). If we luck up and get six , so be it,"' he said. "We just have to be aggressive.

In One Week With Us REACH OVER 285,000 PROSPECTS. PLUS Y R To Place Nltlonol Footboll LNgue Thursday It's us11ally. easy to avoid ThanksgiYing games, especially the early one. That's because Detroit is' always involved and the Lions are what might be called "traditionally ch;lllenged" on a traditiona.l day. But there 's quite a bit on the tine in Thursday night 's game between Denver and Kansas City, who trail San Diego in the AFC West, easily the NFL's best division this season. Denver is favored on the road by one pdint despite blowing a 24-7 third-quarter lead at home Sunday night and losing to San Diego. That dropped the Broncos into second place, a game behind the Chargers, a game ahead of the Chiefs. The 35-27 finaJ was not only a blow to the Broncos' wonlost record, but a blow to the ego of a defense that considers itself the NFL's best. Is it? In losses to San Diego and Indianapolis, both at home, it has allowed a total of 69 · points. ' "That's on us," middle linebacker AI Wilson says. "You can't ask the offense to score 50 points a game. Defensively, we ' ve got to find ways to get a stop." It will probably be easier against the Chiefs, although Trent Green should be sharper in his second game back after missing eight games with a serious concussion. Green only threw 16 times in last week's t 7-13 win over Oakland as Larry Johnson carried the load with 154 yards rushing. One important factor is the inconsistent Jake Plummer, who runs the Denver offense. The other is Arrowhead Stadium, where the Chiefs have lost just once in five games. · Quincy Carter has thrown "Early in football games, me the most passes. I chuck- he's had a tendency to be a led because that's funny," little wild. He's a very emosaid Galloway, who turned tional kid. He's an excitable 35 on Monday but still runs kind of guy.

Jagr scored two goals in the ga~ helping the Rangers to a 4D win . Jagr passes Kurri on another milestone night BY IRA POOELL ASSOCIATED PRESS " NEW YORK - Jaromir Jagr's smile is back and his corny jokes are drawing laughs again in a happier New York Rangers dressing room. And why not? Jagr's shoulder is stronger, his scoring touch is returning to the precision level of last season, and the Broadway Blueshirts are starti ng to win on a more consistent basis. One other thing, Jagr is suddenly on a milestone-anight pace at Madison Square Garden. The Cze.c h star scored twice during another special night and Henrik Lundqvist made 34 saves in his third career shutou1 to give the Rangers a solid 40 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday. Just two nights after Jagr became the 16th NHL player to score 600 goals, he passed Jari Kurri and sef the record for goals by a European,born player. ' "Now I'm looking for the 700th," he said wi-th a chuckle. "Jari Kurri was a guy everybody looked up to from Europe. He was our idol. To score more goals than him ::. It's huge." In the only other NHL games Tuesday, it was Edmonton 2, Calgary I. and Anaheim 5, San Jose 0. The jovial moods disappeared from Jagr the new Rangers captain -last spring, shortly after he · broke team records for goals (54) and points (123) and carried New York into the playoffs for the first time since I 997. The postseason stay was short and Jagr's contribution was limited. He· hurt his shoulder in the series opener against New Jersey, then the injury knocked him out for good in the final game of the Devils' first-round sweep. Surgery followed, and Ja~r didn ' t get back t\l playing until just before this season. He still hasn't regained total strength in the shoulder he dislocated, but the results are starting to say otherwise. Jagr has three goals and two assists the past two games and leads the NHL with 34 points and 23 helpers. . "II is not 100 percent," he said. "Not yet. But it 's better." And so are. the Rangers.

RUTLAND - . "Kids respond to need and kids are givers," R,usty Bookman. principal · of Meigs lntermrdiate School stated . after his students recently proved him right by adopting 40 "angels" from the Meigs County Depanment of Job and Family Services (MCDJFS). The , MCDJFS "angel tree" project happens once a year when less fortunate kids are provided with Christmas gifts, clothing and/or toys through a secret Santa that comes in all shapes and sizes, including 414 students at Meigs Intermediate School. . Each classroom is taking a boy and a girl from the MCDJFS angel tree . and purchasing as well as wrapping gifts for that child. The kids have no idea who the arigels are, they on! y know what the angel asked for this year for Christmas. The kids realize they may never meet their angel and . most have never bought a Christmas rresent for someone they ve never met which is teaching them a lesson in true. giving and "paying it forward." . Bookman said in the past the kids had participated in sending care packages overseas to the needy but t)lis year they decided to · keep their Christmas project close to home which comes in particularly ·handy since MCDJFS are running short on angel tree sponsors thi s year. The MCDJFS is providing gifts for over 500 Je ss .fortunate kids this year. and recently I 00 were without sponsors. For those individuals or groups (such as churches or other organizations) that wish to become a sponsor call Heather Haggy at MCDJFS at 9922117, ext. 116.
