The Allen Board of Edu-cation met for their regular July meeting on Thursday, the 10th, at 7:00 p.m. in the school’s music room. Mem-bers present were Robert Hammonds, Frayne Black, Cindy Davis and Jeff Maloy;

Chad Goodson was absent. Also present were Superin-tendent Ty Harman, Chad Ward for the high school, Greg Mills for the elemen-tary school, and board sec-retary Brenda Robertson.

The meeting started with the Statement of Open Meet-ing being read, following by approval of the consent agenda items. This agenda item includes the minutes of the previous meeting, Gener-al Fund, Building Fund and Construction Bond purchase orders, General Fund and Child Nutrition payroll, the monthly Treasurer’s Report on the status of funds, and the school’s activity fund report.

Administrative reports were given. It was noted that ceiling lights have been rewired in the Middle and Elementary buildings and the drop ceiling has been replaced in the Elementary hall. Work has been finished and the school will now have four computer labs including a new one in the old Junior High building. The Junior High students and teachers have been relocated to the “high-tech” building. Doors and lockers in that building have been altered to accom-modate the students.

Recommendations from the principals to rehire the temporary teachers for the 2014-15 school year. These are Lindsey Laxton and Terra Wainscott in the elementary school, and Allie Gastineau and Tonia Kuehn in the high/junior high school.

As is done each year, the Board approved the appoint-ment of Brenda Robertson as

Treasurer and Minutes Clerk; Freta Holder as Encumbrance Clerk and assistant Minutes Clerk; renewal of the lease purchase of metal roofs and other personal property as re-quired under the agreement dated November 14, 2005; and naming Superintendent Harman as Purchasing/Re-ceiving Agent, and district Enrollment Dates for

new toy to boys who were reluctant to play with a doll, and a new market was born.

G.I. Joe was nothing like the green army men kids had played with in the 1940s. Hasbro’s G.I. Joe was nearly 12 inches tall with movable joints. Later versions of Joe even had lifelike hair and a “kung-fu grip.”

As antiwar sentiment grew in the 1970s, Joe re-tired from the battlefield and adventured to more fantastic settings, includ-ing outer space, where he fought aliens.

Quote of the Week: “Too many parents tie up their dogs and let their teenagers run wild.”

—CC— Most of us have heard the phrase, “A dog is man’s

best friend.” What you may not know is that the phrase has its genesis from a court case, Burden v. Hornsby, that began in the foxhunting fields near Warrensburg, Missouri in 1869 and culminated in the state Supreme Court the next year.

Charles Burden’s favorite foxhound, Old Drum, was killed, and Burden sued Lon Hornsby for damages.

Burden’s attorney, George Graham Vest, won the court battle, $50 in damages and the ears of dog lovers everywhere when he made his famous tribute to the dog. I thought you would enjoy this tribute to those best friends from the Good Old Days.

“The best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and be come his worst enemy. His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust without happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has, he may lose. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it the most. A man’s reputa-tion may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads. The one absolutely unself-ish friend that a man can have in this world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.

“Gentlemen of the jury, a man’s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master’s side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounters with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as

if he were a prince. When all other friends desert he remains.

“When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heav-ens. If fortune drives the master forth an outcast in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompany him to guard against dan-ger, to fight against his enemies, and when the last scene of all comes, and death takes the mas-ter in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by his graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and

true even to death.” I cannot imagine grow-

ing up without a dog. My first dog was given to me by Sonny Pitcock on Christmas Eve when I was in the first grade. I have never received a bet-ter gift. Queenie brought great joy into my life and Sonny became my life-long friend. Whenever I think of my other “best friends”, Rusty, Blue, Tippy, Yukon and now Ghost, it brings back some wonderful memo-ries.

—CC— Speaking of “best

friends”, it was fifty years ago that youngsters were introduced to G.I. Joe.

Until Hasbro introduced the first prototypes of G.I. Joe in 1964, no kid had every played with an ac-tion figure before. Hasbro coined the term to sell its

Having More Retirement Accounts is Not the Same as Having More Money.When it comes to the number of retirement accounts you have, the saying “more is better” is not necessarily true. In fact, if you hold multiple accounts with various brokers, it can be difficult to keep track of your investments and to see if you’re properly diversified.* At the very least, multiple accounts usually mean multiple fees.

Bringing your accounts to Edward Jones could help solve all that. Plus, one statement can make it easier to see if you’re moving toward your goals.

*Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss.

by Cleo LeVallyThe cool days we had this

past week were a welcome respite from the usual 100-degree weather we usually have in the middle of July. The rain we had was also nice and I am enjoying the green grass in my lawn this time of year.

It was cloudy a few days after the rain and I really

did enjoy getting out and doing a little work in the yard. The years I worked as a photograph and taking pictures of rodeos, horse racing, etc., I was out in the summer heat a lot. I can’t remember every be-ing uncomfortable in the

heat of summer. Maybe it was because I was younger and just took it as a matter of course that it would be hot in Oklahoma during the month of July.

I love Oklahoma and will continue to take the weather any way it comes, except for the tornadoes. Also re-membering those summers, I am glad to have air condi-tioning for our homes now. In the summer growing up, I always moved a cot

out under a cotton wood tree in the yard and slept with a mosquito net over the bed. I am glad I have those memories because it was nice to see the stars at night and pick out the bright Evening Star, the Big Dip-per, the Milky Way and so many other kinds of star formations.

When we moved to the house I live in now, there was a large cement slab off the living room. We moved

a bed out there in the sum-mer and slept out many nights. I would not think of doing that now. For years I haven’t even thought about sleeping outside in the sum-mer. I do know that I would not do it. I’ll just keep on enjoying life as it is now, however, some of those old memories are good.

Some of the good memo-ries are those I have of the freedom we had, like walk-ing home alone from church at night, roaming the woods alone, knowing all your neighbors, always feeling safe, etc.

Tim Costner, D.V.M

A news-story the other day brought back some old memories to me. It was about the emergency land-ing 2 weeks ago of a Boe-ing 777 on Midway Island with 348 souls aboard. The landing was made safely after a suspected onboard fire stunk up the inside of the aircraft. The passengers had to wait for a rescue craft to be sent out to Midway and get them back on their way.

My own visit to this lonely island (pop 60) took place back in 1956. Flying aboard an old “Super-Con-nie” airliner of that day I was not alone. There were about 20 servicemen and over one hundred preg-nant women and young

children aboard. We were all headed back to Amer-ica—from Tokyo to San Francisco. Midway was our refueling stop. The old 4-engine prop planes of that day couldn’t make it without it. And as a mat-ter of fact this one didn’t make it at all. The last I saw it was sitting out on the sands of Midway with a bunch of men staring at a damaged strut. Like the 777, the airline had sent out a relief plane.

We had left Tokyo 3 hours late—sort of like the Boeing 777 had done in the recent story. Our midnight departure guaranteed that

many of us tried to nap that part of the trip. Well, not the pregnant women. As soon as the plane cleared Japanese soil they all lined up at the several restrooms on the plane. I noted that when some of them got out of the toilet they would just walk back to the end of one of the lines and start all over again. But to get back to the story, it was when we tried to land that everything went sour.

There is a small gap between where the con-crete starts and where the water starts. We landed in the dirt there. Rains had washed a little of the soil away making a pretty good little curb—a curb our right strut couldn’t handle. The tires blew and the strut gave way—bending back. The aircraft veered off into the sand making a wild bumpy ride before the pilots got it stopped. Light diffusers from the cabin ceiling noisily popped out dumping dusty residue on the screaming passengers. I don’t think the plans were for us to get off or rest at Midway—but now we did and most of us made our way to the old wooden terminal.

Well not all of us did. Several women just went out and sprawled out on the grass breathing in and out real funny. The fact that no one had a baby that beautiful morning on Wake Island is a miracle. One old grizzled Marine informed the uniformed men aboard that we were to take care of these ladies and we did. We finally got to the old terminal which was locked and promptly broken into by us. We found food and cooked breakfast for everyone. Actually we had a pretty good time once we dis-

covered none of us were hurt or having babies at the moment. We were just waiting on our rescue and keeping an eye on the flight crew—who prob-ably felt guilty of not being able to make a routine and safe landing as well they should.

Our last little “snafu” involved the afternoon walks some of us took. Many of us walked around the shoreline of the little island and admiring the gooney birds that live there. It was on the walk back that I decided to cut

across the island and no-ticed what was written on the signs. “KEEP OUT, THIS AREA MAY HAVE UNEXPLODED ORDI-NANCE.”

Just like the hapless pas-sengers on the big Boeing Triple 7, we eventually got to where we were going but I’ll bet they didn’t have as much fun or as much to talk about as we did. Hope your weekend is fine and that you find your way to Church this Sunday.

It’s God’s fault!! Phil-ip Yancey, in his book “Reaching for the Invis-ible God” gives some examples of how God gets blamed for things. “When Princess Diana died in an automobile ac-cident, a minister was interviewed and was asked the question “How can God allow such a terrible tragedy?” The minister’s reply is great. He said, “Could it have had some-thing to do with a drunk driver going ninety miles an hour in a narrow tun-nel? Just How, exactly, was God involved.” Years ago, boxer, Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini, killed a Korean opponent with a hard right hand to the head. At the press conference after the Korean’s death, Mancini said, “Sometimes I wonder why God does the things he does.” In a letter to Dr. Dobson, a young woman asked this anguished question, “Four years ago, I was dating a

man and became pregnant. I was devastated. I asked God, “Why have you al-lowed this to happen to me?” Then there was Su-san Smith, the South Caro-lina mother a couple years ago who pushed her two sons into a lake to drown and then blamed a fictional carjacker for the deed. She wrote in her confession, “I dropped to the lowest point when I allowed my children to go down that ramp into the water with-out me. I took off running and screaming, ‘Oh God! Oh God, no! What have I done? Why did you let this happen?” Now the question re-mains, exactly what role did God play in a boxer beating his opponent to death, a teenage couple giving into temptation in the back seat of a car, or a mother drowning her children?Is God responsible for these acts? To the con-trary, they are examples of incredible human free will being exercised on a fallen planet. And yet it’s our nature as mortal, frail, fallen people to lash out at one who is not sinful, frail and fallen – that being God.” By Ken Kersten
