I grew up here and went to church
here, commented committee member
Carol Razo. For a while I went off to college and got out of the habit of coming. I
came back when we got married and had
children. I brought them back to church
here. It is the only church I have been a
part of.
Pastor Dave Meriwether said that he
came to the church in 1991. It was his first
pastorate and he was intending to stay up
to 10 years. Since that time, said Meriwether, he has fallen in love with Paulding
and his children have grown here. He has
developed a strong relationship with the
church and community.
Barb and Stan Searing moved to Paulding in 1982. We were immediately impressed with the warmth and friendliness
COLUMBUS An Auditor of State partnership with

Paulding County law enforcement led to the indictment of
former director of Probation
Services Emily Munger. She
was indicted on one charge of
theft in office and one charge
of tampering with records.
A probation officer is in
a position of authority and
should set the bar high for
those attempting to turn their
lives around, said Ohio Auditor of State David Yost in a
media release issued Monday.
Instead, this official abused
the publics trust.
In June, County Court Judge
Suzanne S. Rister discovered
that funds were missing from
the Paulding County Probation
Office and contacted Sheriff
Jason Landers and Prosecutor
Joseph Burkard. The Auditor
of States Public Integrity Assurance Team was called in to
conduct audit and investigative
work.
I thank the efforts of Sheriff
Jason Landers as well as Prosecutor Joseph Burkard. Their
experience and knowledge
about the available resources of the Auditor of State and
its Public Integrity Assurance
Team was extremely helpful,
Judge Suzanne S. Rister said.
The sheriff and the prosecutor and their staff have been
so valuable to us at the Paulding County Court. The State
Auditors staff has also assist-

Presbyterians celebrating 140 years

By JIM LANGHAM
Feature Writer
PAULDING The First Presbyterian
Church of Paulding is celebrating its 140th
anniversary on Sunday, Sept. 27. On that
day, members of the yellow brick church
on the corner of Cherry and Caroline
Streets plan to look back at their history
and ahead to their future.
At the 10:30 a.m. worship service, the
congregation will honor its 14 50-year
members.
After the service, a catered lunch will be
served in the churchs fellowship hall.
The committee that has organized the
event expects and encourages lots of visitors. Part homecoming and part outreach
is how they envision the celebration.
Each member of the congregation was
given a pack of postcards to invite people
they know to come, says Jane Nice, one
of the organizers. It is an opportunity for
people who previously attended to come

back, or for someone who has never been
to church to come for a day of fun activities.
Besides the food and fellowship, there
will be a photo scavenger hunt, a game
of identifying past members, and cake, of
course.
The theme, Streams of Living Water, describes the ever-changing body
of Christ. The original handful of members that founded the church in 1875 are
long gone, but as long-time member and
newspaper editor J.R. Ross wrote in 1935,
many have come to its banks, drank, and
been refreshed.
Fifty-year members being honored include Frieda Good, Betty St. John, Judy
Robinson, Terry Buehler, Phyllis Crossland, Jerry DeLong, Kenny Robinson,
Becky Hurtig, Cara Lou Strahley, Paul
Punches, Cleo Zeigler, Brenda DeLong,

PAULDING Warrants have
been issued for two people following an incident in Payne last week.
J. Tucker Harman, 26, of Bryan,
and Mariah Beedle, 23, of Rockville, Ind., are being sought on several local charges plus out-of-state
violations.
Deputies responded to a call
from Paulding County Hospital
emergency room at 2:45 p.m. on
Tuesday, Sept. 8. They were told
a man was being treated for an
apparent self-inflicted gunshot
wound to the abdomen.
It was discovered that Harman is
wanted on a nationwide pickup order issued by the Parole Board Authority in Indianapolis for a parole
violation. As he was transferred to
Parkview Hospital in Fort Wayne,
NEW CROSS SIGN A new cross sign is quickly nearing completion. The Get Right With God Cross Committee is
working on a sign the same size as an old cross sign placed about 1966 on old U.S. 24 near Vagabond Village truck stop.
Fred Merritt (left) is designing and constructing the cross, which will be placed on property provided by Kenny Simpson
(right) and his wife, Dee, on U.S. 127 north of Paulding. Jack Fetter, who is leading the project, said hundreds of motorists
will see the new sign every day. Josh Sinn is doing the aluminum work to protect the frame, and Jeremy Moore is working
on the hill on which the cross will be erected. Plastic for the lettering was obtained from Spartech in Paulding. Fetter said
financial support from the public has been very good.

We had young children at

Jeff Summers, the newest
person on the anniversary planning committee, is enthusiastic
about the church he and his
family felt called to attend.
He wanted to join the

Ive know, said Meriwether.
They attended two Sundays
and wanted to join the church.
The scripture theme for the
day is John 7:38, Whoever

Our anniversary theme,

is alive and vivid throughout

the hymn book, said church
music director Sue Crossland.
She referred to the words of a
particular hymn that has taken
on great meaning with church
members. They state: I heard
the voice of Jesus say, Behold, I freely give of the living
water, thirsty and stoop down,
and drink and live. I came to
Jesus and I drank of that living
giving stream; my thirst was
quenched, my soul revived and
now I live in Him.
Jane Nice, who is heading up
the celebration, said that church
members have been singing
songs pertaining to the anniversary theme through the whole
month of September. She noted
that there is an air of expectancy for the special Sunday.

In addition, it was discovered that Munger collected
$800 in fees for the SCRAM

According to the media release, investigators also believe
that Munger tampered with a

inflated her hourly wage by $2

Burkard appointed Auditor of State Deputy Chief Legal Counsel Robert Smith to
serve as special prosecutor in
the case. Munger was indicted
Sept. 11 on one third-degree

Scan important documents, like insurance policies
and medical records, and save
them to a USB drive.
Create an emergency supply kit that allows for three

days without the comforts of
home for you, each family
member and pets. Items to consider include: medications, a
gallon of water per person per
day, non-perishable food items,
personal hygiene items, batteries, first aid kit, battery-operated radio, flashlight and cash.

help build a resilient person and
a resilient community. Youths
who are prepared during times
of emergency are more confident, feel more control o\/er the
situation and have less anxiety.

COMMUNITY
Lovinas friend provides more
background on Amish wedding
Editors Note: Lovina Eicher
is on vacation. Guest columnist
Ruth Boss, an English friend
of Lovinas, shares her perspective on the wedding of Tim and
Elizabeth from her ringside seat
as a gopher leading up to the
wedding Aug. 14.
August 7. One week until the
big wedding! Lovina tells me
theyve invited 700 for the noon
meal, 600 for the evening meal,
and 200 for the youth meal. But
about 30 percent wont come;
still, she will be serving 1,000
meals. Some of the people are
invited to both meals so there
wont be 1,000 actual guests
but whos counting?
August 12. How much food
do you need to serve 1,000
meals? A lot! For the dressing
we bought 45 loaves of bread
(to be cubed and toasted), 12
stalks of celery, and 10 pounds
of onions. We picked up 350
pounds of chicken leg quarters to grill the morning of the
wedding. Today 20-30 women
will come to Lovinas house to
make cherry and pecan pies and
angel food cake. Tim, Liz, and I
will pick up the 250 pounds of
potatoes and 1,000 candy bars
this afternoon. Its an Amish
tradition in this community for
the bride and groom to hand one
out to each guest. Its fascinating to watch the family, friends,
and church family work together to prepare for this wedding.
The Amish community quietly
and cooperatively gets the job
done.
August 13, early morning.
Its another cool morning in
Michigan. The cooks in the
wedding wagon are grateful
for the cool breeze with seven
ovens going, which also has
two large sinks and plenty of
prep counters and open shelves.
The cooks are chatting in German, probably catching up
about their families and news.
The bread is being made along
with peanut butter pie and dirt
pudding. Two women cut the
chicken leg quarters into two
pieces. Susan is washing all the
bed sheets today. Small children are playing and babies are
being watched by young girls.
A large pot of coffee is brewing
with snacks on a table. Yesterday Elizabeth gave Timothy a
haircut for the wedding. After
tomorrow he will not shave his
beard as that is the tradition for
a married man. Tonight all the
sisters are having a sleepover in
one bedroom for their last night
together.
August 13, afternoon. There
is literally a bee hive of women working in Lovinas kitchen.
Two are doing dishes, three are
washing windows, more are
sweeping and mopping floors.
Laundry is being folded by
another while yet another is
cleaning the bathroom. Outside, in the wedding wagon,
the bread baking and dessert
making continues. In the middle of the kitchen four men sit
at the table with coffee, talking
about work and other stuff men
talk aboutand taking a break
from cleaning out the barn.
The homemade bread is out of
the oven; after brief cooling, it
A tent offered a shady hat and bonnet rack for friends, family
and church members attending the wedding of Tim and Liz.
will be put in used bread bags to

make it softer.
August 14: Tim and Elizabeth are officially married!
We had beautiful weather. The
cooks arrived around 6:30 a.m.
to start cooking. The wedding,
which was at the neighbors,
started at 9 a.m. with songs and
then preaching until about 11.
Tim, Liz, and their witnesses sat
in the middle with benches in a
u-shape surrounding them. The
men sat on one side facing the
middle and the women sat opposite them facing the middle.
About 11 a.m. all the cooks and
table waiters filed in and took
seats. It was all in German, so
I didnt understand what was
being said but towards the end
the bishop asked Liz and Tim
six questions which are their
marriage vows, to which they
answered yes. After a prayer
the bishop placed Lizs hand
in Tims and pronounced them
husband and wife. A wonderful
meal was served at noon and
another at 5 p.m., and a separate
supper for the young people at 7
p.m. At the end of the evening
the men and women all pitched
in to wash the dishes and pack
up the wedding wagons. There
was a bit of mischief that involved a silly string war at the
youth dinner and some TPing
of Tim and Lizs new house.
Lovina and I have been
friends for a number of years;
she is just as genuine as you
may imagine her to be. She
is patient and loving with her

children, and generous with her

time when it comes to helping
others. She is deep rooted in her
faith and that is what has gotten
her through the trials they have
experienced through the years.
There is fun and laughter in
their home, and often the source
of jokes is Lovina herself! She
speaks often of her gratitude for
her readers and how the prayers
and support of all of you have
helped her through some difficult times. She cherishes your
friendship even though she will
never meet many of you. I am
glad to call her my friend.

Driving Miss Daisy

Of all the occupations I
would not want to have, the
one I am least cut out for,
would be anything connected
with driving a motor vehicle.
Since embracing the single
life, I have to depend on myself to drive and maneuver to
get to where I want to go. This
has proved to be a challenge,
as I am not good at following
directions, following a road
map or listening to the monotone voice of a GPS.
I have learned a few lessons
during the past year which
have now attributed to my
driving skills. These rules are:
Rule Number 1: Do not try
to follow anyone to get to your
destination or they may lose
you in traffic.
During a shopping adventure to an area city, I met my
friend at a local fast food eatery. The day was going fairly
well until we went to leave a
big department store complex.
It was here that my friend
made a turn and I being at
least two cars behind her lost
sight of her vehicle.
For some unknown reason,
some guy pulled up beside
me and motioned for me to
go. Well, go I did! Unsure of
exactly which way to go, I inadvertently made a wrong turn
onto a highway which was
headed the other direction.
Yes, I was going the wrong
way on a four lane highway.
I believe every car honked at
me, some said a few choice
words and one even gave me
an obscene gesture.
Oh my. Since I always say
that Jesus is my co-pilot, I began praying to him to get me
A Penny for
Your Thoughts
By
Nancy Whitaker
out of this traffic situation.
Jesus heard me and finally every car from both directions
stopped. Someone yelled at
me to get moving across the
divide and to please get in
the right lane. Even though I
think I may have scared Jesus,
I thanked him for helping me.
Rule Number 2 for driving:
Always look at street signs.
A few weeks ago after finishing up a music gig, I thought
to myself, Instead of going
down another block to make
my turn, I will just go up this
street because it is closer. Little did I know that another
band member was watching
me and lataer said, I could
not believe my eyes when I
saw you headed down that
street! Didnt you know that is
a one-way street? Didnt you
see the signs? Gal, you were
lucky you didnt get hit.
No, I answered. What
signs?
What I did not realize was
that at the end of that street,
there was a bridge with cars
coming across it from four

different lanes. Even though
everything turned out for the
good, I will sure watch road
signs. Please, no more oneway streets.
Rule Number 3: Dont listen to back seat drivers. A
musician friend of mine rode
to a music gig with me and
by the time we got there, he
was shaking in his boots. He
was afraid we were going to
be late and he kept telling me
where to turn. After missing
the turn two times, he got a little frustrated. Then he told me
to make a U-turn and then we
were headed in the right direction, I missed the turn again
and wound up on a dirt lane.
Oh no! With no room to
make another U-turn, my passenger said, Just go across
that curb and grass. So with a
determination in my heart and
a prayer in my head, I jumped
two curbs and wound up safe
and sound.
As far as I am concerned,
I think my driving is good. It
is the other people who may
be in the wrong. However, I
just dont want to tell anyone
where these situations arose,
because the police would
probably be sitting outside the
city limits.
I am very thankful that Jesus is always with me and always has control of the wheel.
I admit that I have made
some driving mistakes. Have
you? Have you ever went
down a four-lane highway the
wrong way or jumped over
two curbs? Let me know and
Ill give you a Penny for Your
Thoughts.

Lake vacation closes out busy

summer; fresh peaches to enjoy
We had a nice few days
staying by the lake. Our family enjoyed fishing and swimming. We had some very hot
days so it was nice to be close
to the lake. Thanks to my
friend Ruth for writing the column for me last week.
We attended the wedding of
Leander and Karen. Joes Uncle Solomon and Aunt Nancy
from Ohio joined us at Timothy and Elizabeths house for
supper. Joe helped Timothy
unload some hay. We had a
good supper with barbecued
chicken on the menu. Solomon
and Nancy came to our house
for the night. I made breakfast
for all of us before they left the
next morning. We enjoyed having them here!
On Sept. 2, our youngest
child, Kevin, turned 10 years
old. He was excited to go to
church as he gets to sit with the
boys now instead of with Joe.
When the boys and girls turn
10, they can sit with the girls
and boys 10 years and older.
School started yesterday and
Joseph, Lovina and Kevin had
a nice first day of school.
We have peaches here that
need to be canned. Ill probably put some in the freezer, too.
Last week, Timothys sister
had a Norwex shower for Elizabeth. I had never been to a
Norwex party (cleaning products that are chemically safer). Elizabeth received all the
hostess benefits. A wash line
was also presented to Timothy
and Elizabeth that night. Family members had filled gallon,
quart or sandwich size bags
with small gifts for Timothy
or Elizabeth. It was interesting to see what people came
up with. An example of items
in the bags were soup plates,
bowls, spices, seasonings,
kitchen items, nails, screws,
baking supplies, buttons, pins,
needles, Band-Aids, etc. They
received a lot of nice things.
The bags were all pinned to a
clothes line hung outside with
clothes pins.
Sunday, our neighbor girl
Ruth was published to be
married on Oct. 16 to Aden.
Aden is also a member of our
church. I was asked to help
cook. Joe was asked to help
Lovina was happy to get some peaches canned this week

and also made a fresh peach dessert (see recipe).
wash dishes at night. Loretta

was asked to be a babysitter.
The babysitters help watch the
cooks babies and toddlers.
Loretta and I both need to
have a new aqua dress sewn
for this wedding.
On Saturday, sister Liz and
Levi are hosting our family
gathering. Im not sure what
the exact number is for our
family count now, but I know
its over 100. Next year it will
be our turn to host the gathering. It seems like the family
has been together more this
year since there were a few
weddings in the family.
I am hoping to answer the
letters to readers this week. I
apologize for taking this long
to answer some of the letters
while we were so busy with
the wedding and church services. Thank you so much for
your patience. God bless you
all!
Try this peach crisp recipe
while peaches are in season!

The moment you know 2 new members join fair board

youve met a friend
Sunday afternoon in the

parking lot at the Limberlost
Loblolly where I walk and
take pictures of flowers, almost out of nowhere, an elderly lady from a town nearby
walked up to me, introduced
herself as Darlene and starting chatting with me.
Within minutes she said,
I love your flowers on Facebook. That got my attention
since I had never recalled
meeting her or having conversation with her before.
But it wasnt unusual, either,
as many people pick up the
Facebook site where I post
pictures each night from my
nature walks in the beloved
Limberlost.
Within minutes, she made
reference to a very special
flower that I have been photographing, a rather rare flower,
a bright red flower known as a
cardinal flower, really one of
my favorites.
Intrigued by a closeness I
sensed immediately to this
80-year-old spunky lady,
I asked her if she would like
for me to actually show her
the flower I have been logging
and enjoying every day.
She consented and as we
walked toward the cardinal
wonder, she poured her heart
out to me about how her husband had passed from cancer,
how she is still by herself
farming a small five-acre plot
that belonged to them for a
lifetime, the elderly people
she cares for and how she
loves to share food and veggies with the needy. Immediately, I sensed I was really in
the presence of one of Gods
choice servants who connected with the needs of others
and who, like myself, draws

strength from Gods Spirit
through creation.
When we arrived at the site
of the gorgeous flower, simultaneously there was a holy
hush. For a moment, neither
one of us said anything; it was
obvious that both of our hearts
were connecting in the presence of the Divine.
Finally, she said, I love car-
dinals; they visit my bird feeder and are all over my backyard. Every time I see one, I
know that God has something
special in mind for me.
I knew then why we had met
and connected. I was standing
in the midst of one of Gods
special cardinal children.
But the story wasnt over.
A few weeks ago I did a story on an elderly lady who
was accompanied by a personal friend. As we talked
and shared, that friend and I
exchanged Facebook addresses. Since then, we have exchanged comments daily on
flowers and natural wonders,
but there was more to come.
This morning, when I opened
my Facebook there was a message from the new friend. It
simply said, Im glad you met
Darlene. She is my best friend,
such a special person.
Then I knew (thanks to the
cardinal flower).

PAULDING The Paulding County Agricultural Society (senior fair board) welcomed
two new members at its regular monthly meeting on Sept. 9.
Jacob Luderman and John Wiesenberger
were sworn in and signed the code of conduct.
Board members were reminded that positions for the fair board would be for a threeyear term.
A building checklist was given to the board
to help with renting buildings and barns on the
fairgrounds. The checklist would include all
items associated with a particular building such
as chairs, stands and other supplies. Any damage
occurring during the rental of a facility or missing
equipment would be added to the total rental fee.
The board received an invitation to the fifth
grade field day on Sept. 11 with a rain date of
Sept. 25. The event was to be held in the goat
barn for all fifth graders in Paulding County. It
was noted that most students had not seen the
fairgrounds before and this would be a great experience for them.
Games in Columbus. Last year

marked the eighth consecutive
year the Ohio Masons have
given at least $175,000 to the
Summer Games.
In previous years, the funds
raised locally were sent to the
state organization; however,
the brethren of the lodge felt
the funds would be better used
in Paulding County to support
the local athletes of the area.
Paulding County Special
Olympics athletes have no age
limit. There have been athletes from 10 years old to 40
years old participating. These
include individuals receiving
services through Paulding
County Board of DD/PARC
Lane Training Center, individuals from the PC Workshop and students from the
three county high schools.
An average of 10-15 players
participate in fall/winter basketball each season, usually
completing in 6-10 games

with various counties such as
Defiance, Van Wert, Henry
and Mercer.
One cyclist also participates
in the state Summer Games
each June. Athletes participate
annually in the K of C basketball tournament in January and
the state basketball tournament
in Columbus in March.
Special Olympics has its
own fund that pays for coaching contracts, tournament
fees, team uniforms and various other expenses. This fund
helps to offset costs to the
players and their families and
is maintained through fundraisers and donations; they
rely heavily on community
and family support to keep
the local Special Olympic program up and running.

Director, Paulding County
Carnegie Library
PAULDING Take a look
in your wallet. Do you have a
library card? If not, why not?
A library card is the most
powerful card in your wallet.
It can take you to places you
cannot go by any other means
because, the way you get to
those places is through your
imagination.
Your journey to lifelong
learning should begin at the
library. And, if you have not
visited your public library in
the past two decades, you will
be shocked at the change. We
are not your grandmothers
library anymore but your
grandmother still uses the library. It is a multi-generational library now. There is something for everyone.
For those readers who
might be numbers-oriented
and want to know the monetary value of a library card,
the holdings of the Paulding
County Carnegie Library system are currently valued at
over $1.3 million.
For those of you who insist
you do not need to use the library because you purchase
everything you want to read
digitally, a library card from
your Paulding County Carnegie Library can save you money. Even the cost of purchasing
eBooks via Amazon and other
vendors can add up. With a library card, you have access to
hundreds of thousands of titles
of eBooks, audio books and
magazines via the Ohio Digital Library, http://ohdbks.lib.
overdrive.com/.
For those of you who love
Susan Hill Pieper, Library Director
The most powerful

card in your wallet
music, you can borrow thousands of albums free of charge

live streaming via the librarys online catalog through
hoopla www.hoopladigital.
com. As someone who came
of age in the 1970s, it is truly
a walk down memory lane to
listen to Derek & the Dominos bluesy rock version of
Layla, or Cat Stevens Tea
for the Tillerman, or Elton
John, or The Grateful Dead,
or James Taylor, or The Who,
or the Rolling Stones. All the
music I listened to in the 70s
is available on hoopla. All the
music you listened to in your
favorite decade is probably
there, too. All you need is a
library card.
I also enjoy watching classic television series on hoopla
such as The Lone Ranger
with Clayton Moore. I have
recently watched movies like
The Sting and Ruby Bridges. I watch at night with earbuds on my smart phone. The
screen may be small, but the
memories are huge.

For a child, a library card is
a key that can unlock the door
to infinite possibilities. Young
children should not be spending
time in front of the television
or on a computer. They should
visit the library and borrow
books. Books cover every subject imaginable and take young
readers on journeys they will
remember for a lifetime.
I have been in the profession for over 30 years. I have
embraced the arrival of computers and technology. I have
heard all the arguments about
the death of the public library. But the public library
has been steady throughout
the years with a strong heartbeat. The library has morphed
into an institution of lifelong
learning, online exploration
and the door to reading for
young children. The library
is the publics library. It is
a treasure to be cherished and
used again and again.
Library Card Sign-Up
Month is celebrated nationally each September. But for
us, every day is library card
sign-up day. We encourage
you to visit your local branch
library, the Bookmobile or the
main historic Carnegie library
in Paulding.
Visit and walk around. And
while you are at it, sign the
whole family up for a library
card. All you need is a photo ID and proof of address.
Library cards are free for all
Ohio residents. Over 200,000
items were borrowed from
your county library system in
2014. How many will you borrow this year? See you at the
library!

Asian varieties of burpless cucumbers have been shown to cause less gas in some individuals. Removing the skin will also help, as it contains most of the cucurbitacin, the offending ingredient causing gas.
Excuse me, its the vegetables!

When I was looking at vegetable seeds for planting this
spring, I chose cucumbers that
were said to be burpless. I
never really thought about this
aspect of it before, being a relatively new eater of this raw
vegetable.
Im not a big fan of eating
raw vegetables in general. I
dont like raw tomatoes, except in salsa, which I love. No
raw carrots or celery for me,
and please dont make me eat
raw broccoli or cauliflower.
Radishes? Never in a million
years.
The scent of fresh cucumbers has always been one
of my favorites, and in the
last ten years or so, my taste
for them has expanded from
sweet and dill pickles (which
Ive always loved). I suppose
it wasnt that big of a jump
from eating pickles to eating
fresh cucumbers, but Im a renowned picky eater, so there
you go.
Back to this burpless thing...
Certain fruits and vegetables
are known to cause flatulence
in all its manifestations. Beans
are notorious. Beans, beans,
the magical fruit and all that.
In addition to our beloved
beans, cabbage, broccoli, peas,
Brussels sprouts, asparagus,
and several other vegetables
can cause this ... umm ... err
... problem. Many fruits are
guilty of it as well. But burping and passing gas is perfectly normal and most of us
do it at least 20 times a day.
I wont go into all the technical details these edibles can
cause gas, but its mainly because of the fructose, rafinose,
or oligosaccharides in them.
Fructose and rafinose are natural sugars and the breakdown
of sugars can cause gas.
Oligosaccharides are also
a type of carbohydrate and
foods that have an abundance
of them, like beans, are a bit
harder for your body to break
down, but that doesnt mean
you shouldnt eat them. Our
body needs them for good nutrition.
Many of us avoid eating
certain things because of their
flatulence features, but there
are a few things you can do to
help reduce their effects while
still enjoying them.
Take smaller bites and chew
In the
Garden
By
Kylee Baumle
your food more thoroughly.
The digestive process starts in
your mouth. Obviously your
teeth begin the breakdown of
your food and your saliva has
enzymes in it that helps begin
the process as well. The better
you chew your food, the less
work your stomach has to do.
Once you swallow, the
stomach takes over, using enzymes to further break things
down. Some foods can produce gas at the stomach level,
causing burping, but many
will wait until theyre further
down the line, in the gut.
When your food reaches the
intestines, it begins to ferment
and we know that fermentation
produces air bubbles. A certain amount of this is normal,
but if you havent given your
food a good start with proper
chewing, then it will remain
in the gut for a longer period.
The longer its there, the more
gas youll have.
Cucumbers can cause

burping or gas for a different
reason. As members of the
Cucurbitaceae family, they
contain cucurbitacin, a bitter
substance. The more bitter
the cucumber, the more likely
youll have problems with gas.
Plant breeders have bred
some cucumber varieties with
less cucurbitacin so they have
a sweeter taste and produce
less gas. However, each persons genetic makeup will
also determine how susceptible they are to this problem,
so its not always a matter of
picking the right cucumber.
Still, by choosing a burpless
variety, youre lessening your
chances of being bothered by
burping or gas.
Tests have found that the
Asian version of burpless cucumbers produced less gas
than their American counterparts, so seek these varieties
out when growing your own.
Summer Dance, Orient Express, Suhyo, Japanese Soarer,
and Natsu Suzumi are just a
few popular Asian varieties.
To recap, chew your food
thoroughly, grow Asian burpless cucumbers, and say excuse me when your vegetables
get the better of you.

Notice of Intent to Cancel Oil and Gas Lease Under

Ohio Revised Code Section 5301.332
Notice to Apollo Energy Corp., Pioneer Drilling Company, and Beldon & Blake
Limited Partnership No. 1-E and its successors or assigns: Pursuant to Section
5301.332 of the Ohio Revised Code, you are hereby given notice that the oil and
gas lease dated May 29, 1981, by and between Eisenmann Farms (as lessor) and
Apollo Energy Corp. (as lessee), and recorded in Lease Volume 34, Page 344 of
the Paulding County, Ohio lease records (the Lease) is null and void and will be
forfeited. The Lease was subsequently conveyed by Apollo Energy Corp. to Belden
& Blake Corporation by an instrument dated March 12, 1982 in Volume 31, Page 282
of the Paulding County, Ohio Recorders Office. Belden & Blake Corporation then
assigned the Lease, in part, to Pioneer Drilling Company, Inc. by an instrument dated
May 12, 1982 in Volume 32, Page 53 of the Paulding County, Ohio Recorders Office.
The remainder of the Lease was assigned by Beldon & Blake Corporation to Belden
& Blake Limited Partnership No. 1-E by an instrument dated May 12, 1982 in Volume
32, Page 56. The Lease covered approximately 470 acres in Latty Township, Blue
Creek Township, and Union Township of Paulding County, Ohio (the Property), at
least a portion of which is now owned by Eisenmann Farms, Inc. and will be forfeited
because: (i) the primary term of the Lease has expired; (ii) there are no wells drilled
on the property; (iii) the Property has not been used for operations in search of oil
and gas; and (iv) Lessor and its successors have not been paid the consideration,
benefit or payment under the Lease necessary to cause the Lease to remain in effect.
It is our intention to file for record an affidavit of forfeiture with the Paulding County,
Ohio Recorder if you do not have the Lease released of record within thirty (30) days
from publication of this Notice, which is being published based upon failure of service
at the last known address of the original lessee or their successors and assigns.

Commissioners Journal September 2, 2015
This 2nd day of September, 2015, the Board of County
Commissioners met in regular session with the following
members present: Roy Klopfenstein, Tony Zartman, Mark
Holtsberry, and Nola Ginter, Clerk.
MEETING NOTES OF APPOINTMENTS
Corey Walker, Defiance/Paulding Consolidated JFS,
met with the commissioners to obtain signatures on the
annual lease for the Dooley Drive office (see resolution
below).
Brion Hanenkratt and Bob Bennett (P&R Communication Services Inc.) Bennett presented a maintenance
proposal for the Paulding County LTR System (see resolution below). He explained the Trident Controllers currently being used are obsolete and there are no replacement parts for them. He noted there are grants available
to assist in funding a new system. Bennett suggested a 2-3
year migration toward updating equipment, to spread the
cost.
County Engineer Travis McGarvey and Aaron Timm
met with the commissioners to discuss the signage at the
Eaton Farm.
Timm also presented quotes from Loop Paving for the
improvements to the County Annex and Sheriffs Office
parking lots. The commissioners asked Timm to move
forward and coordinate the two projects.
They then discussed the concrete/cement they have
been collecting and the possibility of bringing in a crusher

so the gravel could be used on various projects. Timm
reported it would cost around $3/ton to get it crushed.
McGarvey commented it would probably be used for off
roadway projects.
A map of the fairgrounds was presented with a proposal from the chamber to place traffic barricades at the
west gate and the main gate during the Flat Rock Creek
Festival, Sept. 18-20.
Discussed the Paulding County Transportation Improvement District and all were in agreement it could benefit the county. A TID will be formed as soon as a district
board of trustees can be appointed using the Alternative
Method, involving a five-member board appointed by the
board of commissioners and one non-voting member appointed by the House of Representatives and Senate.
Briefly discussed the ODOT building.
Anita Stechschulte met with the commissioners for an
update. She noted she has been working with Ed Bohn,
EMA director, on updating the county resource guide.
Paulding Countys mitigation plan has been approved at
the state level and has been forwarded to the federal level
(FEMA in Chicago).
She has also been working on the DARE grant. If reinstated, DARE will have a presence in the fifth grades
and kindergartens in all the county school systems. Stechschulte commented that most grants are applied for in the
spring. She also coordinates the conceal/carry program for

the Sheriffs Office.
Ed Bohn, EMA, met briefly with the commissioners to
update them on the EMPG matching fund reporting status.
EXECUTIVE SESSION
A motion was made by Zartman to go into executive
session at 8:04 a.m. with the Paulding County Prosecutor
and the Assistant County Prosecutor discuss legal matters.
At 8:38 a.m. all members present agreed to adjourn the

Montpelier steam rolls past
Panthers in second half
By JOE SHOUSE
Sportswriter
PAULDING After playing 24 minutes of football that
had both Paulding and Montpelier knotted at 7-7, it was
the visiting Locomotives who
steam rolled past the Panthers
in the second half for a 34-14
drubbing of the maroon-andwhite. Both teams were looking for their first win after 0-2
starts and the Locos used two
quick scores in a 56-second
span of the third period to
dominate down the stretch.
With the score even at seven a piece, Montpelier used a
nine-play drive covering 66
yards to push their margin to
14-7 with 4:13 remaining in
the third. The scoring drive
was capped off when junior
Bryce Cooley barreled his
way up the middle for a oneyard score.
The Panthers used less than
a minute on a four-play drive
netting zero yards forcing a
Corbin Edwards punt and the
Locos taking over on their
own 40 yard line. Sophomore
running back Austin Grubb
answered with a solid run
up the middle covering 60
yards and another Montpelier
score. The extra point attempt
failed and the visitors were in
front 20-7.
Paulding managed to move
the ball on their next drive
into Loco territory using 10
plays before being hit with a

turnover. On a critical fourthand-one the Panthers elected
to go for a first down but Panther QB James Mourey fumbled the ball over to Montpelier, ending their drive.
When looking at their roster Montpelier has good size.
This was a physical game and
we have some guys playing
both sides of the ball and I
think they (Montpelier) wore
us down in the second half,
said Paulding head coach Tyler Arend.
Scoring on their two previous possessions, Montpelier
made it three-for-three with
an impressive drive covering
71 yards on 14 plays all on
the ground. Jordan Birdsall
traveled the left side of the
field 22 yards to pay dirt with
3:42 remaining. With a successful extra point the Locos
were in control 34-7.
The
maroon-and-white
managed one last score needing just four plays to move 68
yards. A Mourey connection
to Preston Ingol covered 61
yards of real estate to put the
ball on the seven-yard line.
Following two incomplete
passes, Mourey threaded
the needle to senior receiver
Nathan Gee for a seven yard
scoring strike with 3:09 remaining. The Edwards point
after was good to make the
final score 34-14.
Mourey finished the night

with 184 yards in the air on
9-23. The ground game netted 91 total yards with Branson Minck leading the way
with 34 yards on five totes.
It was good to see the improvement with our quarterback. James (Mourey) stayed
in the pocket, made better
decisions and passed much
better. He never threw an
interception which is a huge
improvement for him, commented the head coach.
For the Locomotives, who
improve to 1-2 on the season,
a host of runners collected positive yards including Grubb
with 154 after gaining just one
yard in the first half. Jordan
Birdsall ran the ball 18 times
for 103 yards and a touchdown
while team mate Bryce Cooley collected 69 yards and one
score on 11 carries.
In the passing department,
Montpelier was 0-for-6 with
one interception by Pauldings Minck.
Defensively, senior Jarrett Sitton made his presence
known on the defensive line
with several stops.
He is one of those guys
who plays hard and is so
passionate about the game.
Jarrett is very coachable and
has the ability to play at the
next level. We need to have
10 more just like him on our
team, said Arend.
After a scoreless first quarter, Montpelier got on the

board first after the Panthers
were forced to punt on fourth
down from the end zone. The
Locos had excellent field possession from the Panther 26
yard line and needed just four
plays to cross the goal line.
Evan Friend scored on a 15yard run at the 10:33 mark in
the second period.
Paulding answered with a
59-yard scoring drive of their
own. Using a mix of running
plays and passes, Mourey
guided the Panthers to the
20 yard line and on a critical
third down and 15 the junior

landed deep in the back of the
end zone.
Corbin was flying all over
the place. He had some nice
catches and played well for us
tonight, said coach Arend.
The Panthers will be on the
road this Friday as they travel to Bluffton for their first
Northwest Conference battle.
I thought we came out
and competed for most of the
game. Montpelier made some
adjustments and changed
things up a little in the second
half. We just need to come

be prepared for our next challenge, Arend said.
Knights dominate second half in win over WT

By KEVIN WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
HAVILAND Crestview scored the
games first 22 points Friday night against
host Wayne Trace at Raider Field. After
the Raiders responded with 22 of their
own, the visiting Knights outscored the
Raiders 29-8 in the second half to pull
away for a 51-30 victory over the rival
Raiders.
The Raiders entered the contest without their head coach on the sidelines.
Coach Bill Speller was unable to perform
his coaching duties after having emergency gall bladder surgery. Assistant coach,
Mike Speice filled in for Speller as well
as the remaining coaching staff.
It was a game of runs, and it was Crestview that put a 22-0 spurt together in both
halves to cruise to the victory.
The win came on the strength of the
Crestview rushing attack. Quarterback
Dylan Grandstaff ran for 188 yards and
running back Jordan Miller added 142
on the ground as the Knights totaled 400
yards of rushing in the win.
The contest saw three different
22-point runs on the night, with the visiting Knights posting two of them.
The guys really responded coming out
in the second half, Knight head coach
Jared Owens commented. We came
out and got a stop defensively and then
followed it up by scoring a touchdown.
I thought our offensive line did a very
good job tonight and our backs were able
to take advantage of the holes. Dylan
(Grandstaff) and Jordan (Miller) both hit
the holes and ran the ball well as did Payton (Knittle) and Luke (Gerardot).
Tied at 22-22 at the intermission,
Crestview scored on its first possession
of the second half and never looked
back.
Starting at the Knight 33, Grandstaff

scampered 48 yards on the first play to
give Crestview a first down at the Raider
19.
Jordan Miller added runs of seven
yards and one yard before a plunge by
Payton Knittle gained three yards to give
the Knights a first and goal at the eight.
Facing a fourth-and-goal at the nine,
Miller ran the distance on a reverse to
give Crestview a 28-22 lead. Miller then
also scored on the two-point conversion,
giving the Knights a 30-22 advantage
with 5:13 remaining in the third quarter.
Crestviews defense again held on the
next Raider possession, setting up the
Knight offense to start at their own 37
yard line.
Crestview needed only six plays to find
the scoring column again when Miller
rumbled eight yards for the score. Miller also ran in the two-point conversion
as the Knights went on top 38-22 at the
1:20 mark of the third quarter.
Grandstaff then ran away from the
Raider defense for a 16-yard touchdown
run with 7:32 remaining in the contest,
pushing the lead to 44-22.
It was a back and forth game, commented Knight head coach Jared Owens.
We got off to the good start, but then
Wayne Trace made some plays and they
put together a run. It was two very similar teams battling each other tonight.
While the Knight offense was having
no trouble scoring, the Crestview defense was also doing their part in shutting down the Wayne Trace offense in
the second half.
The Raiders managed only three first
downs in the final two quarters, totaling
three yards of offense in the third quarter
and 55 yards of offense over the second
half. Meanwhile, Crestview ran for 238
yards in the second half and recorded 10

first downs.
Defensively, I thought we did a much
better job in the second half, Owens
commented. For the most part, our secondary did a good job of keeping them in
check and we were able to get consistent
pressure on the quarterback. Our line
play was a big key tonight and the pressure they were able to generate caused
Wayne Trace some problems.
On the night, Crestviews defense
posted a dozen sacks that resulted in a
loss of 67 yards.
Wayne Trace did close within 4430 on a nine-yard pass from Wobler to
Shepherd, with Jayden Sherry catching the two-point conversion pass from
Wobler.
However, Crestview sealed any doubt
when Grandstaff finished off the night
on a two-yard touchdown plunge with
2:15 left in the contest. Nick Springer
added the extra point kick to set the final
score at 51-30.
The Raiders got first half touchdowns
on a 61-yard pass from Wobler to Seth
Saylor and a 45-yard scoring strike from
Wobler to Luke Miller. Hunter Showalter also ran 21 yards for a score.
The Knights finished the game with
400 rushing yards and 475 yards of total offense. Wayne Trace was limited to
18 rushing yards on 25 attempts in the
game. Through the air, the Raiders completed 17 of 29 passes for 252 yards.
FAIRVIEW FACTS Wayne Trace
will look to get back on track in the
Green Meadows Conference as the
Raiders welcome in Fairview for the
third straight Raider home game. The
Apaches are 1-2 after losses to Wauseon
and Delphos Jefferson with the lone win
coming over Paulding.

The Panthers Preston Johanns #57 tries to keep containment
on the Montpelier offense last Friday night in non league play.
The Locomotives defeated Paulding 34-14 for their first win of
the season while the Panthers fall to 0-3.

Raiders open GMC slate

with win over Fairview
By KEVIN WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
SHERWOOD The Green Meadows Conference opened its volleyball league schedule
on Tuesday night with Wayne Trace picking
up a road win at Fairview in straight sets.
The Raiders recorded a 25-14, 25-14 and
25-22 win over the Apaches to improve their
record to 4-1 overall and 1-0 in the league.
Danae Myers posted nine digs and nine
kills and Erin Mohr added 10 kills to lead the
Wayne Trace efforts.
After the Apaches opened the first set with
a pair of kills by Lexi Johns, the Raiders answered with seven straight points to take control.
With the Wayne Trace lead at 11-9, the redwhite-and- blue picked up seven consecutive
points to widen the margin to 18-9. Erin Mohr
had three kills for the Raiders while Carissa
Laukhuf added a slam and Leah Maasel recorded an ace.
Fairview stayed within 22-14 after a Johns
kill before Wayne Trace closed out the match
with three consecutive points, one of which
was a Sydney Critten ace, for a 25-14 win.
We played pretty well the first two games
tonight, noted Raider head coach Angie Speice. Our chemistry has come together and we
have started to just play instead of wondering
what other girls were going to do. Our seniors
have done a good job of leading this team and
they have blended in with the younger girls
really well. The girls are gaining confidence
each night and that is something we need to
continue to do.
Myers posted four kills in the second set

victory. The Raiders put together a 12-1 run in
the middle of the set, turning a 5-3 deficit into

a 15-6 lead.
We want to be the aggressor and I thought
we did that the first two sets, continued Speice. We want to serve with a purpose and be
attacking our opponents.
In set three, it was the host Apaches who
became the aggressor though. Fairview took
advantage of a Raider offense that turned conservative and jumped in front early on 12-8.
After a Wayne Trace timeout, the Raiders
responded. The red-white-and-blue answered
by scoring eight of the next dozen points to
knot the game at 16-16.
With Fairview back on top 19-16, a kill by
Flint and an ace by Mohr ignited a seven point
Raider run that put Wayne Trace on top 23-19.
A Myers kill culminated the Raider spurt.
The Apaches Casey Kunesh recorded an
ace to help the black-and-gold get back within 23-21. After the two teams traded points, a
Myers block sealed the Wayne Trace win and
the 25-22 third set victory.
Our consistency is an area we have to get
better, Speice concluded. It was hot in the
gym and I think we got a little tired but that is
something we need to improve on.
Carissa Laukhuf added seven digs, two kills
and 17 assists for Wayne Trace with Mohr and
Leah Maasel both posting two aces. Stacy
Flint also recorded six digs and five kills and
Sydney Critten posted four digs for the Raiders. Sadie Sinn also chipped in two assists.
Wayne Traces junior varsity fell to 2-2 on
the year and 0-1 in the league after dropping a
three-set match to the Apaches. Fairview took
game one 25-23 before the Raiders rebounded
with a 25-23 victory in the second set. However, the Apaches claimed the match win by
taking the third set 25-15.

EVENT RAISES FUNDS FOR SMITH FAMILY A boat poker run to benefit the family of U.S. Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall
Smith was held Saturday, Sept. 5 at the Five Span sand bar on the Auglaize River. A total of 187 people participated in the poker
run, which raised $5,500 with more money still coming in, according to organizer Jason Germann. Pork sandwiches were sold for
donation at one of the stops and at the sandbar after the event; the hog was donated with all money going to the Smith family. The
JFX Band from Fort Wayne performed during the evening.
