In a move that could be considered bold, savvy, risky or any combination of the three, the Young County Commissioners Court went for and received a last-min-ute, 30-day extension on a deadline to purchase cut-ting edge election equip-ment at a greatly reduced, early-adopter’s price.
Hart Intercivic’s new line of Verity election equip-ment is currently priced at $335,798. Initially, the court and Young County Elec-tions Administrator Lauren Sullivan were told by Hart that the last day to purchase the package at the discount-ed price would be June 30.
A major consideration in the deal with Hart, from
tives, has been how much Young County can get for its ten-year-old equipment. Monday morning, Sullivan laid out the best selling op-tions before the court, with
Henderson County topping the list at approximately $80,000 for several dozen pieces of equipment.
“That would more than

Sullivan said that since
she is going to a confer-ence in Austin next week, she would like to expand her networking opportu-nities in search of the best possible selling scenario for Young County.
“I don’t think we’ll have any problem getting buy-ers for this equipment,” she told the court. “The price I have in my mind, in total, is about $105,000, and that’s for everything.”
After a brief discussion on selling options, County Commissioner Mike Sipes asked Sullivan exactly what aspects of the discounted Hart contract go up in price after the June 30 deadline.
“The immediate thing that we know would go up would be the PCs that
Count software. Those have already gone up to $5,600 each from $3,000,” Sullivan explained. “They’d also knock off the special county discount, which is about $13,000. And the three year extended warranty which equals about $20,000 (goes away).”
Sipes said that if Sulli-van could get $105,000 for Young County’s current election equipment, tak-
about $230,000, or roughly $46,000 per year over the life of the agreement, it would be much easier to consider the purchase, but as of now, the county has several other pressing items vying for budget money.

Olney once again has a permanent home on the In-ternet thanks to a joint effort between the Olney Indus-trial Development Corpora-tion and the Olney Cham-ber of Commerce. The site, OlneyTexas.com, is now up and running, though work on its implementation really began more than a year ago.
“We needed a new one,” said Wiley Hughey, director of the OIDC. “Our old one was just outdated.”
The OIDC, which bank-rolled the project, hired Crane-West, an advertis-ing and web design agency based in Wichita Falls, to de-sign a fresh, new website to
showcase the community’s strongest assets.
“It has worked out really well,” he said. “It’s about 99 percent complete, and just needs some updating and information.”
The website includes links to information for Chamber of Commerce events, a com-
attractions throughout the area.
Visitors can click links to head to other useful web-sites, such as those for the city of Olney, Hamilton Hos-pital, Olney ISD and more.
Under the “Chamber of Commerce” menu, locals and visitors can check out a list of Chamber members, see who is on the board of directors and view photos
of recent events. A business directory is also included.
“The business directory is pretty much complete,” Hughey said. “If we left any-one out, please let us know.”
On the OIDC’s part of the page, visitors can eventually look at properties available for sale, check out business incentives, Census informa-tion, tax rates and more.
The difference between the new website and previous, short-lived versions is that this one is completely cus-tomizable by either himself or Stacy Wade, Chamber co-ordinator.
“We’re able to update it ourselves now, and we weren’t with the last one,” he said. “It will be great once we get it totally complete.”

Looking Back North Texas TalesBy Gay Schlittler Storms
Police BeatBy OPD Chief Barry Roberts, MPO
2014
Sitting in a deep pit, waiting for an eagle to grab a dead coyote does not sound like a path to glory.
Yet to a Kiowa warrior, gathering enough eagle feathers to make a war bonnet was a ritual well worth the years it took (it usually took six or seven). For the Kiowa, the feath-ers symbolized “good or strong medicine,” a strong token against evil and misfortune. Eagle feathers meant the difference between winning or losing a battle, killing a buffalo or being gored by it. In fact, a man who was poor in spirit could not create an eagle-feath-er war bonnet--only chiefs with strong hearts.
The bald eagle was never used — only the feathers of six or seven golden eagles. Native Americans respected the American symbol, the bald eagle, but they revered the golden
the eagle species and would occasionally at-tack full grown deer. Their fearlessness and dangerous talons made them a bird to avoid.
The art of catching the eagle was a ritual that had to be followed to the letter. The Ki-owa believed since the eagle was the wisest bird, catching it in an ordinary trap would be insulting to the majestic bird. A warrior
in the prairie. The hole had be two feet over the head of the Indian, who would be sitting down, staring up at the sky waiting for the ea-gle. All the dirt in the hole had to be removed and carried away on a blanket and hidden.
saplings sturdy enough to hold sodded grass blocks over the pit, leaving just enough room so the bird could not get into the pit.
Next, the warrior killed a coyote for bait and laid it on the pit, staking it into down so the eagle couldn’t pull it away. Coyotes were used for bait because they believed they were powerful beasts who would attract eagles the
-dian go before daybreak and get into the pit. He would strategically cover the hole so that he could see up between the saplings and shove his hands up beside the bait.
A soaring eagle would see the dead coyote, dive down and strike its prey quickly with his deadly talons and feed on the meat. When the Kiowa felt the eagle was getting full, he cautiously put his hands up between the
saplings and grabbed the eagle by both legs. Then he shoved aside the stake, jerked the bird down inside the pit and broke its neck. If the bird was not jerked suddenly, it would turn on its hunter. The bird had to be killed by hand or the “good medicine’ was ruined.
Not all warriors survived if something went wrong. Wilbur Sturtevant Nye, author of “Bad Medicine and Good: Tales of the Kio-was,” spent years recording Kiowa oral his-tory and described a near-death encounter. Nye said a Kiowa warrior waited for three days for an eagle to come. When he thought it safe to reach for the huge bird, he only caught one leg and tried to pull it in the pit.
turned on the man and used its razor sharp talons to gouge his wrist, cutting an artery.
Although the Kiowa was weak, he man-aged to choke the eagle to death and tie up his slashed wrist. He brought the eagle back to camp, and no one could doubt his story. His arm was so badly swollen, it was as big as the calf of his leg. The Indian lived, although the healing took far longer than he imagined. It was with great pride that he recounted his experience to Nye. The Kiowas adopted the tradition from the Sioux, who introduced the eagle feather as a symbol of great protection. The Sioux put eagle feathers in each Kiowa warrior’s hair after a sun dance. They ex-plained the importance and taught the Kio-wa tribe a feather dance using dance wands decorated with feathers. From that moment, the Kiowas embraced the token.
Sometimes the warriors combined feathers with buffalo horns or hair or the head of a crow to create a scarier, more powerful war bonnet. The Kiowa warriors and chiefs who caught enough feathers — six or seven eagles — for a war bonnet also used them to deco-rate lances, shields and arrows. However, the bonnet itself was considered strong medicine and almost as powerful as a shield.
Above all, each feather symbolized an hon-or won by the owner or previous owner. War bonnets could be made and handed down from father to son or from uncle to nephew. But all warriors were required to go through the arduous and dangerous ritual of captur-ing eagles and living to tell about the experi-ence.
Rite of passage carried grave danger
I don’t know about you but I know I am very proud to be an American.
Does my country have problems? Of course it does. Do I agree with everything that comes out of Washington D.C.? Of course not.
That is one of the great honors of being an American. I am proud I still live in a nation that allows me the freedom to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We will be celebrating Independence Day this Friday
to be an American. I encourage you to be very responsible at
your BBQs and gatherings. We all know
that some of you will be having adult bev-erages at your parties. Please take care of your guests. Do not let them drink and drive. Give them the options of staying at your place or have designated drivers to get them to their homes.
I know the last thing anyone really wants to do is be involved in an accident that takes someone’s life or injures them or yourself. Your Olney Police Department will be on the streets patrolling and we will have zero tolerance for impaired drivers. Be safe. Have a great celebration. Be thankful for your American heritage. Finally, don’t drink and drive.

Pets need protection, too
You may have noticed that mosquitoes are out in swarms right now. Some are big enough to carry off small dogs but most are just buzzy and annoying.
Since it’s pretty much impossible to avoid the little guys during the early evening hours, you’ve probably also started tak-ing precautions if you’ve got to be outside. It’s amazing what people will do to keep a mosquito away - lighting candles, slathering on creams and sprays, looking up strange (and debatably effective) home remedies on Pinterest.
But for all that preparation for yourself, your yard and your kids, there’s still some-thing you’re forgetting: your pets.
That’s right, Fido the dog and Fluffy the cat must also be protected from mosqui-
tos. While a human can get bitten and, in rare cases, contract an illness, it is all-too-common for dogs and cats around here to be infected with heartworms thanks to mosquito bites.
It’s not something we really considered or had really even heard of, at least until our big dog, Emma, was diagnosed with a case of heartworms several years ago.
They were found during a routine test and we were told she needed treatment quickly if she was to survive. The treatment, we were told, was expensive and risky, especially during the recovery phase as the worms died and were cleared from her body, and that there was a chance she wouldn’t survive.
But, she was (and is) my baby and when
knowledge that I’d take care of her needs for as long as she lived.
So we went through with the treatment and
They weren’t lying – it was really expen-sive. However, since that time we’ve kept Emma and our two little dogs religiously on heartworm preventive treatment.
Folks, it’s simple: each month you give your animals a pill (sometimes chewable, sometimes not, depending on the variety you choose). They get a test annually to make sure they’re heartworm free and that’s it.
when you add up the cost of monthly pills –
especially for multiple dogs. However, when you compare it to the pain a dog or cat with heartworms goes through, the expense to treat the animal or the pain of watching them die from the disease, it’s a small price to pay.
All it takes is a single bite from the wrong mosquito to infect an animal, so regardless of whether your pet stays outside all the time or only ventures out for brief visits, it’s imperative that you keep them medi-cated and safe.
Your pet counts on you for love, care and medical necessities it can’t provide for itself. Do your part to keep your pet safe by mak-ing sure heartworm prevention is covered every month.

800 PUBLIC & LEGAL NOTICES
800 PUBLIC & LEGAL NOTICES
The Federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, leasing and fi nancing of housing. The law also prohibits discriminatory advertising
on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, national origin, mental or physical handicap or marital status.
The law covers any potential or actual sale, lease, rental, eviction, price terms, privileges or any service in relation to the sale of or use of housing. The law not only prohibits advertisements which restrict access to housing based on the protected categories, but also prohibits advertisements which indicate a preference for or against a person based on a protected category. In some circumstances, the use of local terminology, symbols or directions to real estate for sale or rent may indicate a discriminatory preference.
It is the intent and goal of The Olney Enterprise for each advertiser who wishes to place an advertise-ment in The Enterprise to comply with the Federal Fair Housing Act. Any advertisement which is perceived to contain language contrary to the act will be rejected or changed to remove the offending reference(s).
There may be situations where it is not clear whether particular language is objectionable. Such advertisements should be referred to the publisher for consideration and determination. Under certain circumstances, advertisers may claim that because of the nature of the housing being advertised, they are not subject to Fair Housing laws. Such claims are irrelevant for the purpose of considering adver-tisements for publication in The Olney Enterprise. Every housing advertisement published in The Olney Enterprise is subject to all provisions of the Federal Fair Housing Act.
