The Shelter Insurance Foundation awarded a $2000 scholarship to Highland High School graduate, McKenzie Platz, and a $2000 scholarship to Canton R-V graduate Aury Randolph. Shelter Agent Richard Horner sponsors and partially funds this scholarship.
Platz and Randolph can direct the scholarship funds toward tuition fees, or campus housing for any course of study leading to an academic degree at any accredited college or university.
A committee of local high school offi cials and community leaders selected the recipients. The committee considered each applicant’s scholastic achievements, educational goals, citizenship, moral character and participation and leadership in school and community activities.
The $2000 scholarship is paid directly to the school the recipient selects. Platz and Randolph received a certifi cate from Richard Horner on behalf of the Shelter Foundation.
The Shelter Insurance Foundation is a not-for-profi t corporation for charitable and educational purposes. It is sponsored by the Shelter Insurance Companies which provides insurance services to customers in 14 states via a network of local insurance agents and headquartered in Columbia, Mo.

John H. McKenzie, who is better known as Jr. McKenzie, is the owner of McKenzie Automo-tive and Garage at 105 N. Elm Street in Lewistown. Junior began his career in 1958 working at the John Deere dealership in Lew-istown which was owned by George Nichols. Af-ter serving in the Army in January 1960 he started his own business which was a garage and service station. The business was located where Lewistown Senior Housing now stands. In 1962 he moved the busi-ness to where the Fire sta-tion is now located. He left Lewistown for a short time in the late 1960s to teach high school vo-tech in St. Charles. Returning, he opened up a station in
the same location and later bought property owned by Mackie Johnston and has been there ever since.
At fi rst McKenzie op-erated just a garage and rented the front part of the store to Virgil Neisen, who sold Belarus tractors. In the mid 1970s he opened the parts store that contin-ues to do business today. The operation has always been a family business, with his wife, Nina, help-ing with the bookkeeping and management and his sons operating and man-aging the parts store. His son, David, worked in the family business and now owns a Car Quest store in Glasgow, son Joe manages the Car Quest in Quincy and now his son, Steve, manages the store in Lew-
istown. Steve McKenzie is also the mayor of Lew-istown. Daughter, Tammy also works in the offi ce and parts store as does son Jake. Jerry McKenzie, Jr.’s brother, has been employed for many years at the busi-ness. Early mornings at the store, employees and cus-tomers can be found dis-cussing world events and the latest local news. In the small town of Lewistown, they know their customers, what they need and how to help them. They enjoy meeting new customers. They know their custom-ers depend on them to keep their autos and machinery operational and if a me-chanical problem arises,
they can fi nd the solution.Jr. and Nina McKen-
zie have nine children, 27 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. They are members of the Queen of Peace Catholic Church.
Jr. McKenzie has seen a lot of changes in his years of service to the commu-nity. Computer technology has changed the way cars are serviced. It makes it easier to diagnosis a prob-lem but you have to have the diagnostic equipment to do the job. Cars run longer than they used to with the modern fuel injection sys-tem. A car engine used to be good for only 100,000 miles, but now if a person takes care of their vehicle,
they can last over 300,000 miles. Farming season used to be a busy time for McK-enzie Garage. Now they still have farm customers, but the amount of small farmers has sharply de-clined, as it has all over the country. Service stations used to provide light me-chanical work, but most of them now, just sell gas and convenience items.
McKenzie Auto offers service and repairs for au-tos, trucks and tractors and lawn mowers. The auto parts store is an Auto Plus store which is a registered trademark of Uni-Select. They carry a wide selec-tion of automotive supplies and parts, and anything not
in stock can usually be or-dered with quick delivery to the store. The business specializes in hydraulics, fi lters, batteries and other automotive supplies. They also make service calls. Hours are Monday to Fri-day 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Saturdays 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The phone number is (573) 497-2705.
The McKenzie family is grateful to the commu-nity for all of the support through the years and look forward to serving all their customers and being a part of the community for many years.
Junior McKenzie, center, along with son Steve McKenzie, left, and brother Jerry McKenzie have many years experience in the automotive fi eld. McKenzie Automotive is located at 105 N. Elm Street in Lewistown.

LEWIS COUNTY HISTORY
BACKWARD GLANCESFrom the pages of early Lewis County newspapers
There are all kinds of products now with recalls, because, even though a product has been used for decades, someone fi nally got hurt or killed, and so the product is modifi ed, or warnings are given to only use said product when wearing a full suit of armor, or something like this.
Medicines have been on the market for years, and some laboratory rat determined that if you take gallons instead of, milligrams of the dose, bad things could happen to you. Suddenly, medicines now in use are pulled or the legal disclaimers become longer and more boring (and at times more dangerous) than the worst of country preachers.
If someone eats too much of the wrong food, (defi ned as having too many calories, too much fat, two many sugars, or too much fl avor) terrible diseases will infl ict you body. For the record, too much of good foods - say a dozen eggs twice a day - or a prune-only diet will also do bad things to you.
Yet to cancel recalls, or insist on more stringent manufacturing standards, or less harmful food, will put lawyers out of work.
At the risk of further
The ultimate cause of death - living
sounding morbid, think about this. The vast majority of causes of death are someone living life. Statistics will likely bear this out. Anyone who has ever been born is more likely to die and be known to have died, than the majority of those people who were never born.
Further consider this, legislators who played with real china tea sets or lead-painted metal play sets with sharp edges, now have a hand in banning unsafe toys. People involved in product safety now likely grew up in an era before mandatory auto booster seats. Yet these policy makers lived to adulthood to tell about and pass “safer” rules.
The intent on all the safety measures is to preserve life. But in living, nothing totally eradicates the eventual end.
25 Years AgoThe Press-News Journal
May 24, 1987There are a lot of
factors why the Lewis County Commissions are asking voters for a .19 general revenue levy increase. With federal revenue sharing money no longer available, the county is pretty much on their own for supporting itself and maintaining the current services. The rev-enue sharing, of which $85,110 was approved in 1986, has been eliminated. A $5,477.69 balance for 1987 was an apparent fi nal carry-over for the fund.
The Canton Lum-ber Company will hold a grand re-opening this weekend, with a new name and greatly remodeled quarters. The business will now be known as Moller’s Building and Home Cen-ter. The same personnel are being retained, but the interior of the building has undergone updating and improvements.
It was a question and answer session between teachers, board, super-intendent, and also the public at a special meet-ing Monday at Highland. District teachers presented a list of questions to the board and superinten-dent under the categories of concerns and general school climate, policy and procedures, and goals for the future. Not all of the 40 questions were an-swered at the meeting.

May 25, 1967Dr. Fred Helsabeck,
president of Culver-Stockton College, has an-nounced that David Stein-beck, public relations di-rector, has been appointed assistant to the president, in addition to his public relations assignment.
In-town pipeline con-
I recently discovered that fashion trends in the South are much different than those in the Midwest. Ultimately, everyone wears the same type of clothing such as a t-shirt and blue jeans, but there are some differences. Ap-parently, we Southerners are much more obsessed with what we wear on our feet.
One of these trends are Yellow Box fl ip fl ops. My grandmother called just yesterday to inform me that she had bought a pair for me. Yellow Box fl ip fl ops are decorative, cute shoes, but they are also expensive. Being the penny-pinching Scrooge that I am, I wouldn’t give more than 15 dollars for pair of sandals. Yellow Box shoes can cost any-where from 20 to 30 bucks a pop. Sometimes they are even more expensive depending on where you buy them. To me, this is an outrageous way to spend money, but to all the other Southern women I know, Yellow Box fl ip fl ops are as much a necessity as having a Vera Bradley purse.
Another trend that is more popular with the younger crowd are Sperry shoes. These shoes look a lot like “loafers” to me, but the comfort level of these shoes are hard to beat. Once again, these shoes are pricey, and al-though I do own a pair that I enjoy, I bought them for
Southern Fashion… shoes are a staple
half-off. The latest trend that
has come to my attention is that of Toms. Tom’s are shoes that resemble ‘fl ats’ that appear to be made out of a canvas material. The great things about these shoes are that they are not only customizable, but with every purchase, a donation is made to peo-ple in need. The original, not customized shoes are about 45 dollars. I can’t speak on the comfort level because realistically, I can pay my gas bill with the cost of these shoes. Per-sonally, I’d much rather have my hot water.
Perhaps it’s the simplic-ity of the people around this area that have truly caught my attention and respect. The people in this area haven’t heard of these shoes for a reason: because they’re smart enough to spend their money on something slightly more worthwhile than a pair of shoes.
struction work for Great River Gas Company has been completed in eight communities. Natural gas distribution systems have been installed in La-Grange, Knox City, Mon-ticello, Arbela, Luray, Me-dill, Granger, and Ashton. Crews are presently work-ing in Canton, Edina, and Lewistown.

May 21, 1962Commencement exer-
cise for the Canton high school graduating class were held Thursday night, May 17, in the high school gymnasium, with Richard DeCoster, Canton attorney delivering the address. The Honorable Harry Tru-man, former President of the United States, will be among the dignitaries who will be in Bowling Green Saturday, May 26, at the Kickoff for Senator Ed Long. Designated as Ed Long Day, there will be a parade in the afternoon, a barbecue at 6:30 p.m. and the big speaking and rally at night.
Everything is in readi-ness for the Sidewalk Ba-zaar in Canton on Friday and Saturday, May 25 and 26. The fi rst Bazaar was held last fall on a one-day trial basis and it was so successful that it was de-cided to make it a two-day affair this year.
75 Years AgoThe Press-News Journal
May 27, 1937Because it was the fi rst
co-educational university west of the Mississippi
River, Culver-Stockton College honored women in the commencement pro-gram. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered by a woman; the commence-ment address was also de-livered by a woman; and only women received hon-orary degrees. The class of 1887, composed of only women, received recogni-tion.
For 84 years, Culver-Stockton has stood for the equal educations of the sexes, but not until today has a woman ever received an honorary Doc-tor’s degree from the in-stitution. Upon Mollie G. White, will be conferred the degree of Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) for her achievement in mathemat-ical science. The degree Doctor of Science is a new degree for C-S to confer since it has never been given until today. Miss White who will receive this degree is a graduate of Culver-Stockton, class of 1913.

hable con alguien que lo entienda bien.Our water system recently violated a drinking water standard. Although this is not an emer-gency, as our customers, you have the right to know what happened, what you should do, and what we are doing to correct this situation.
We routinely monitor for the presence of drinking water contaminants. Testing results col-lected during the twelve month period ending March 31, 2012 show that our system exceeds the standard or maximum contaminant level (MCL), see table below.

What should I do?You do not need to use an alternative (e.g., bottled) water supply. However, if you have specifi c health concerns, consult your doctor.
What does this mean?Disinfection Byproduct (DBPs) are formed when chlorine combines with naturally occurring organic matter in the water. Disinfection is necessary to inactivate harmful microbes, such as bacteria and viruses, which may be present in untreated water. Regulated DBPs consist of Total Trihalomethanes (TTHMs) and Haloacetic Acids (HAAs). Th e MCL is based on long-term exposure of drinking two liters (about two quarts) of water every day for seventy years. Some people who drink water contain-ing TTHMs in excess of the MCL over many years may experience problems with their liver, kidney or central nervous system, and may have an increases risk of getting cancer.
What happened? What is being done?An aggressive unidirectional hydrant fl ushing program will be implemented and the Chlorine injec-tion point will be moved allowing less Chlorine to be injected.For more information, please contact water system staff indicated below:
