Oklahoma Highway Pa-trol Troopers report that two people are dead as the result of a one-vehicle accident near the Town of Calvin on Friday morning, June 2, 2012. An-other passenger was injured according to the report and was medi-fl ighted to a Tulsa hospi-tal with extensive injuries.

The report from the Oklaho-ma Hightway Patrol stated that the victims were all residents of Calvin and were reportedly on their way to a church camp when the fatality accident oc-curred.

Phillip Iker, 62 , of Calvin, was pronounced dead at the scene of massive injuries, as a result of the one-vehicle rollover. Iker, was reportedly thrown from the driver-side window of the vehicle and was

pinned under the pickup for ap-proximately 30 minutes.

Also pronounced dead at the scene was 15-year-old Mi-chael “Chea” Austin, also of Calvin who was a passenger in the front seat of the pickup. Austin was reportedly ejected from the vehicle after it struck a tree.

A third passenger was treated and released from St Francis Hospital with head, leg and arm injuries, after being trans-ported by Air Evac helicopter. He was listed in Stable Condi-tion.

Just in case you needed something else to worry about this summer . . . One in five Americans admits having urinated in a public swimming pool, and 70% say they jump in without showering.

—CC— Quote of the Week . . . “If you want your children to turn out

well, spend twice as much time with them and half as much money.”

—CC— We have said it before and will say it again . . . college may

be the worst investment many young people could ever make. It’s time the U.S. ditched the idea of “college for all,” said

Robert J. Samuelson. “Like the crusade to make all Americans homeowners, it’s now doing more harm than good.”

We’ve deluded ourselves into believing that a college degree – “not the skills and knowledge behind it” – is the ticket to better paying jobs and middle-class success. We’ve “dumbed down college” as a result, repeatedly lowering requirements in order to attract and retain more students.

Despite those lower barriers, many students still aren’t gradu-ating – less than 60 percent of freshmen at four-year schools get a diploma within six years. And even those who finish school aren’t really learning much.

According to a recent study, 45 percent of college students haven’t significantly improved their critical thinking and writ-ing skills after two years; 36 percent still haven’t after four. For those pitiful results, young people take on mountains of debt, and miss out on vocational training that they might find far more engaging and useful.

“Learning styles differ,” and 69 percent of current U.S. jobs don’t require a post-high school degree. It’s time for us to stop stigmatizing those who don’t go to college and rid ourselves of our misguided obsession with the four-year degree.

—CC— Speaking of college . . . When President Obama gave the commencement address

recently at the Air Force Academy, he congratulated the cadets for excelling at one of the most demanding schools in the country.

But decades after Mr. Obama completed his own college course work, his academic performance is still a mystery. Before and after his election as president, Mr. Obama has refused to release his college transcripts from his days as an undergraduate and a law school student.

Most presidents’ academic records are made public by the time they reach the highest office in the land, either with their consent or by someone else digging them up.

“There’s no reason why people shouldn’t know,” said Stephen Hess, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who focuses on the presidency. “At this point, it’s pretty moot — perhaps amusing if it turned out that he didn’t do very well.”

But whenever Team Obama is asked about the president’s college performance, officials dodge the question, obviously with Mr. Obama’s blessing.

The White House press office refers such questions to campaign officials, who in turn refuse to provide any information. The Obama campaign didn’t respond to questions for this article.

Presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney also hasn’t released the transcripts of his college years at Brigham Young University, or his four years at Harvard University where he earned a combined law degree and an MBA.

Another stonewaller in recent presidential politics was Sen. John F. Kerry of Massachusetts, the Democratic nominee in 2004, who refused to release his college transcripts during the campaign against President George W. Bush.

The Democrat finally relented in 2005, six months after he lost the election, revealing that he had received four D’s in his freshman year, including a political science course. It also

turned out that his grade-point average at Yale University in the 1960s was nearly identical to Mr. Bush‘s, despite the media’s portrayal during the campaign of Mr. Kerry as the more intellectual candidate and the common image of Mr. Bush as dumb.

The years-long secrecy about Mr. Obama’s college records has led to accusations that he is trying to hide something — for example, grades that might have justified neither his transfer to Columbia University in 1981 from Occidental College, a small school in Los Angeles where he was on a scholarship, nor his acceptance into Harvard Law School in 1988.

A conservative Web site, the-trenches.us, last week raised its “reward” to $20,000 for anyone who can provide Mr. Obama’s college transcripts.

His grades are just one of many things we will probably never know about President Obama.

—CC— We read this past week that

Eugene Polley died. The name may not be familiar to you but his invention is certainly well known to you.

Couch potatoes everywhere owe a debt to Eugene Polley. In 1955, the Zenith Electronics engineer invented the Flash-Matic, the world’s first wireless remote control, forever chang-ing the way we watch television and saving a generation of chil-dren from endlessly marching between couch and dial.

The Flash-Matic, which sent a beam of light toward the set

to control channels and sound, was shaped like a snub-nosed revolver, which Polley said let viewers “shoot out” commer-cials like in a Western. “Just think!” Zenith’s ads proclaimed “You can even shut off annoy-ing commercials while the pic-ture remains on the screen.”

Can you imagine life without remotes?

—CC— And finally, my favorite story

of the week . . . Elaine Crawford writes that although many men in her rural area have difficulty accepting women’s lib, her

husband helps with the house-work.

“One day he took over the vacuuming while I went to the store. The doorbell rang. It was one of his friends – a burly ranch foreman clad in a battered cowboy hat, faded jeans and worn boots.

“I was just cleaning,” my hus-band said somewhat abashed, turning off the vacuum.

The rancher looked relieved. “That’s all right,” he said gruff-ly, handing my husband a white paper bag. “I’m delivering Avon!”

David Baber, Kevin Stinson, Delwayne Johnson and Doug Stinson did another outstanding job performing at the Allen Cus-tomer Appreciation Celebration in the park this past Saturday.

Officers from Allen Police Department, Hughes Coun-ty Sheriffs Office, Pontotoc County Sheriffs Office and Chickasaw Nation Lighthorse Police executed a search war-rant late Wednesday, June 20, 2012, into the early morning hours of Thursday, June 21, 2012. Officers of the Allen Police Department had se-cured a search warrant for 300 North County Line Road due to reports of a Felon on the property being in possession of a handgun.

Officers approached the building where Mr. Ronald Nickell was located and found the door to be locked. Lawmen could hear someone inside moving around and at that time a decision was made to breach a window to gain access to the property. When done, they lo-cated Mr. Nickell and saw that there was a surveillance system

in place and operating showing where we had just entered the yard. After several orders to do so he finally opened the door. He was secured and a search of the area was conducted.

Officers located nothing in-side the main residence, how-ever officers located several items of contraband including the reported handgun, drugs and drug paraphernalia. The handgun and other items were located in a building where Ronnie Nickell was residing at the rear of the property inside the fenced in portion of the yard. Mr. Nickell was taken into custody and booked into Hughes County Jail. Offi-cers anticipated the following charges:

Possession of a firearm after former Felony Conviction (2nd subsequent charge)

Possession of Methamphet-amine within a 1000 foot of a

DHS Daycare facility. Possession of a Firearm

during the commission of a Felony

Possession of a radio capable of receiving police frequencies 21-48-1214

Use of video surveillance system during the commission of a felony 21-70-1993C

Possession of Drug Para-phernalia.

Allen Police Chief Eric Hol-comb stated, “Mr. Nickell has had several charges in the past for possessing a firearm and I felt it was necessary for our department to take this kind of allegation seriously especially on the grounds of a local day-care facility. It is important for me to re-assure everyone that

there was nothing at all located in the daycare and that it was

very clean and well kept.”

I just took a test on questions about American History and I think I fl unked the test. It was a written by members of the American Historical Association, the nation’s oldest and largest society of history teachers, professors and historians.

Out of the twenty-fi ve printed questions, I knew the correct answers to eleven. That may have been a pretty good score, since a lot of the questions happened many years later than when I had studied American History in school. The answers to those questions related to facts that had happened after

1950 and up into the 1990’s, so I would have had to be an avid newspaper reader to get the answers to many of those questions.

I did know who discovered the polio vaccine because that was widespread news when it happened. Also I knew who was the founder of the United Farms Workers because that happened about 1962. I knew about the Underground Rail-road that carried slaves from the south to the northern states to freedom. I did not know much about the history of the War of 1812, even though one of my grandfathers fought in

that war and I have quite a bit of the historical facts regarding his part in the war. I did not know the year that the federal government purchased Alaska from Russia and I did not know what was the fi rst state to se-cede or declare that it was no longer part of the United States in 1861.

Taking this test reminded me of the big celebrations we had on the 4th of July when I was growing up. It was a day for family. A great number of relatives always showed up for the event. It was a day of pick-ing strawberries, getting the ice cream freezer ready, and making sure there was enough ice on hand for making the ice

cream and for icing down a tub of soft drinks. Also for whip-ping the cream to top off the cakes that were baked for the day and running to the door to welcome all the relatives when they arrived.

It was a good thing we had a large porch to put all this stuff out and get the chairs under the big cottonwood tree in the yard, because that is where the shade was and most of the gathering took place. And then just sitting around and listening to all the family stories being told. If relatives stayed around for part of the evening, out came the guitars, or fi nding re-cords to put on the old Victoria;

having music and maybe doing a little dancing.

My older brother came home a lot of those days and he is the one who taught me to Charleston and dance the black bottom. That was a dance my mother would abhor and she always scolded me when he would get me out on the fl oor to dance with him. I thought he was the greatest. He and I would laugh together while mom scolded us.

The Fourth of July was just a great family holiday. When I moved to Healdton it became a day of going to Lake Murray and maybe swimming some or just being beach bums. It is still a good day for family and fun.

Manliest People II Last week’s article on “The

Manliest City” caught the eye of many readers. One of the things brought to my attention — and I apologize to all of you who were offended by my omission — is the manly prac-tice of eating “Lamb Fries.” I can’t think of anyplace outside this region that is as dedicated to a good plate of “cowboy caviar.” Also called “calf fries” by some, this delicacy (spurned by the less manly) not only makes for a delicious plate but in itself helps to make a more manly man — at least that’s what some of my more manly friends say.

I am sorry, too, about not mentioning what laypeople call “hand fi shing.” This ancient sport involves catching fish by hand, of course. It is com-monly called “noodling” and is shown frequently on channels 240 (Dish) and other manly channels. A former Allen phy-sician publicized the sport by writing a medical article which describes not only the malady

of “noodler’s thumb” but of-fered valuable insight into the sport itself. The main purpose of the published article was to show the cause and treat-ment of this sport injury. The writer, John Oglesbee, M.D., a manly physician indeed, was a frequent visitor to the nearby South Canadian River where there is an abundance of shal-low fl owing water. This stream harbors deep holes that serve as home to catfi sh that may weight over 100 lbs. Diving down into these deep holes wearing only denim shorts with eyes wide open and plac-ing one’s hand in the mouth of one of these giant fi sh requires a lot of manliness indeed.

Several other suggested ac-tivities include things that I don’t consider being all that manly. There is, after all, a very fi ne line between being just plain stupid and being manly. Walking a tight-wire across Niagara Falls is a manly thing but trying to jump it with a four wheeler is not. Racing up and down the rivers in a 4-wheeler drunk as a skunk

falls into this category too. Not manly. Same way with tattoos — doesn’t do any more for you than putting on an earring. In fact, if you’re plastered with body piercings and tattoos, you’re going the wrong way. One nice thing about an earring though, you can take them off but those ugly tattoos stay with you — during job interviews and everything.

A reader in Utah wrote me that although he had never been to Allen, he felt that Rock Spring, Wyoming would have us all outdone. Rock Springs, he said, is populated by miners, ranchers and oilfi eld workers and has a “cathouse” (what-ever that is) on every corner. A. R. True, and old veteran and former shipmate of mine would know a manly town if he saw one and I concede that to him, for the moment. Rock Springs may be a manly town but the last time I was in Wyo-ming I didn’t see any cases of noodler’s thumb.

It’s the 4th of July. We usual-ly call it a July the 4th weekend

but it landed on a Wednesday this year — sort of messing ev-erything up. Many will stay at home this year which gives the “manliest” guy in the house a chance to show off his cooking skills out on the grill. But aside from that, this year is kind of a downer. You can make an extra long weekend if it falls on any day other than a Wednesday. I never did like Wednesdays anyway and that may be why. So this year, along with many others, I’ll just stay at home. I can still remember pulling in home late in the evening, my

boat all nasty, and my body sunburned and tired and having to get up in a few short hours and get back to my job.

So, as you enjoy the day with your family remember those who sacrifi ced so very much a very long time ago so we can live in freedom in this great land. And don’t forget to go to church this Sunday.

As I think about being pa-triotic this 4th of July, I realize that voting is very patriotic. By my vote, I help shape the future of the nation. Do I vote Democratic or Republican? Neither! I always vote Chris-tian! I vote for people and laws that will help make our country more Christian. It is not the economy, our weapons or our political system that makes our nation strong. It is our faith in God! “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.” (Prov 14:34)

God pronounced a woe on Israel because they trusted in their armies and weapons,

rather than in Him. “Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are very strong, but who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek the Lord!” (Isaiah 31:1)

Therefore, I vote for those who seek to protect the life of the unborn. I do not vote for those who support or approve of the homosexual practices that brought God’s wrath upon Sodom and Gomorrah. I vote for laws and people who sup-port and approve of marriage as defi ned by God in His word. I do not vote for people or laws that support and approve of making our society secular. We were founded as a Chris-tian nation upon Biblical truths and I will not endorse anything that elevates the false religion and god of Islam. Did you know that in 1776, 11 of the 13 colonies required that one had to be a Christian to be eligible to run for political offi ce?

I will not vote for people or

laws that seek to remove the name of GOD or Jesus Christ from our Society! It is the hon-oring of our glorious God and the name of Jesus Christ that has made our nation strong and caused it to stand taller than any other nation on earth. This Independence Day, let’s vow to be more patriotic by (1) voting Christian and (2) praying for God to rule our nation through Godly ruler and laws.

We are excited that on next Monday, July 9th at 6:30 P.M. our Vacation Bible School begins. The theme this year is Boot Camp. Getting into shape spiritually and mentally will be emphasized, though, instead of the 50 pushups, 50 mile hikes, and marching drills you might envision when you read the theme title. And in this heat, that is really a good thing.

“Boot Camp” will be in ses-sion from 6:30 to 8:30 P.M. for the entire week. A light supper will be served each evening, and all area children are urged to attend.

Another announcement is that we will be showing the inspirational video, “Lone Pass” on Sunday evenings during the month of July. This will be during the regular 5:00 evening service and will be in the fellowship hall. Besides the video there will also be time for discussion and prayer.

We, and I’m sure the entire community, are praying for the Iker family at this time. Losing one family member is hard, but losing two family members at once is such a heavy burden to bear. Support of friends and the community mean more to families than people realize.

After the fi rst congregational song, we broke away from our usual Sunday morning worship service schedule this Sunday, and found it to be very inspir-ing anyway. Also, we enjoyed meeting and visiting with our guests. Several were members of the Echols family clan, and several were members of other clans.

The fi rst special music group was made up of James Ham-monds on guitar, Ted Deaton on the ukulele, and Wyatt Deaton on guitar. Their song was “I Am New.”

Kerrie Howshar and James Hammonds then sang “Glori-ous Day.”

Sandra Howshar sang “I Will Rise when He Calls my Name.”

Thomas and Carla McMillan then brought some Tennessee fl air to the music by singing “I’d Rather Be,” “Walkin’ the Sea,” and “That Little Old Church by the Road.”

Sandra Howshar closed the special music portion of the service by singing “The Old Rugged Cross.”

Jack and Janna Barr, who are serving God in Bangkok, Thailand, brought the message. Jack teaches in an international school there where he has the opportunity to share the gospel message with students and teachers from all over the world.

The Barrs fi rst emphasized

how important it is that anyone who has family called to serve overseas not discourage them from going. They feel blessed that their families were sup-portive of them in this matter.

Jack said that although he was in church during his child-hood and teen years, he always felt that God was rather distant from his daily life. When his fa-ther died, Jack gave up a sports scholarship to come home. He later enrolled in Johnson Bible College primarily to research whether or not God was real.

By the second semester he found himself on probation at the college. When he went to Mongolia during Christmas break the following year and saw the struggle the people endured there, he began to understand that life was more than wanting a comfortable day to day life.

Today, the Barrs believe that the fact that they serve overseas helps them keep their focus on God without being so distracted by all the things that our society is so good at providing.

Janna grew up in church as well. Although she felt drawn to foreign missions, she mainly worked hard on earning a gym-nastics scholarship. Then when she injured her knee badly, that distraction from serving God was removed from her life. Still, though, as she attended college working hard and try-ing always to do her best, she realizes now that she felt that God was merely backup for all that she was accomplishing in her own power.

When Jack and Janna married and eventually found them-selves on a 28 hour trip to Bangkok, Thailand, the enor-mity of what they were doing suddenly hit them. Were they doing the right thing?

Of course it has turned out that it was. Along the way, however, God has taught them many things and they have gained wisdom that many people twice their age never learn.

They learned that we all have obstacles to sharing our faith—even missionaries. You can always fi nd an excuse for leaving your mission fi eld.

Christianity is not about hav-ing an easy life.

We can’t live the Christian life under our own power.

Our assumptions aren’t nec-essarily the way things are gonna be.

Then their daughter, Marley, a Down’s syndrome child, was born. At first they couldn’t help but feel that they were being punished for something, but they eventually learned

that God has a great plan for Marley.

In Thailand special needs children tend to be hidden away. In fact, their families are shunned a bit, because they feel that these children are a form of punishment. It is partly cultural and partly their belief in karma.

Since Marley’s birth, a Spe-cial Needs Center was started. Janna has become a part of this group and is able to interact with families she wouldn’t have met in any other way. She has already seen some changes in attitudes regarding children with special needs. The In-ternational School where Jack works has also begun a Special Needs Program for children.

Since Marley has joined their family, the Barrs have learned even more valuable lessons about living life God’s way:

When you truly submit to God, the way you think about things changes. In fact your entire world changes.

Being completely honest with God—and not wording it in pi-ous sounding language--helps much more than you would expect when you are trying to fi nd the way through the dark times. God helps our doubt give way to a better understand-ing of what He is doing.

Trusting God enough to sub-mit to him means you can look forward to what He has planned for your future.

Yes, our off-schedule wor-

ship service was quite an in-spiration. You are welcome to

join us anytime no matter what kind of schedule we’re on.

The Allen Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce that they will again be able to offer the Christmas banners.

The banners were first used during the past holiday season. Those will again be used but interest was expressed by a num-ber who had not been contacted on how to be included in the display.

Orders for the 2-sided banners must be paid in advance; cost of the banners is $150. Purchasers will have a choice between the candle or poinsettia decal.

All orders must be received by September 15th and may be placed by contacting The Advocate at 857-2687.

Time to order Christmas Banners

Hello everyone!I want to take a minute to

remind everyone to remem-ber your pets during this hot weather. We are receiving several reports of animals without water and food. I have to remind you that these ani-mals can’t talk and say they are thirsty, they can’t say the sun is too hot on them and they can’t tell you they are hungry, so please feed them, water them and give them some kind of shelter in this heat.

Just this morning I have received two complaints of starving animals. If you are found to have animals without

food and or water you will be cited for this offense and you will be required to come to court. If it continues we will seek relief through District Court and remove the animals from your care as well as press charges for animal neglect and cruelty.

And, remember the scams, “if it sounds to good to be true it probably is.” DO NOT GIVE INFO OUT OVER THE PHONE, EMAIL OR TEXT.

We have been hit hard this past month by thieves. In less than 30 days we had a truck, car, motorcycle and a

40 ft gooseneck cattle trailer stolen. I had a report early Sunday over possible joyrid-ing on a golf cart also. We are currently investigating these crimes and a reward has been offered for the motorcycle. If you have any information on these crimes or any other crime happening in Allen please call us day or night. 580-857-2722 or 911.

Please call us during an incident or as close to it as possible. When we get calls that someone did something 30-45 minutes ago and no one knows who it might have been then it’s hard to find the person who may have done it, so please call ASAP so we have a better chance of stop-ping them.

I would also like to re-mind everyone that grass still grows and we still have to keep it mowed. If you have a physical condition that prevents you from mowing or taking care of the property then by all means call and let me know so we can get you some help to get it taken care of. It’s usually to late to do anything once the property comes for abatement.

We will be removing some homes shortly that have be-come dilapidated. If you would like to voluntarily have a home torn down and removed now is the time to call me so we can get some-

thing set up when the equip-ment is here.

Last but not least, I would like to thank everyone who came out for Customer Ap-preciation. It sure made me feel good driving around see-ing all the smiling faces and people having a good time. The small town atmosphere is one reason I came back to Allen from the Sheriffs Office and

this feels like my hometown. It’s a feeling you don’t get when you go to other towns and cities around here. It just feels special.

Thank you for taking time to read this and remember to hug someone today and smile! Until we meet again!

Sunday we honored our military in our services. A video was presented entitled “Thank You.” Pictures were shown of our soldiers overseas doing their duties. A musical medley was played during the film. Songs included were “In God We Still Trust” and “I’m Proud to be an American.” We need to pray daily for our men and women who are giving their lives for our freedom.

A special offering was taken to send audio Bibles overseas. Our special, “Faith of our Fathers”, was sung by Tochie and

Bill Cates and his sister Carolyn Elliott. Bro. Larry’s sermon was taken from l Samuel 8:10-20 and entitled “Is Government Better than God?” In this passage the people thought they knew what they wanted. They wanted to be like other nations. They wanted someone to lead them, protect them, and fight their battles. They seemed to have forgotten that God had promised to do all that and more.

He had also promised to LOVE them, something government could never do. They refused to listen to the consequences. Samuel warned them about the military draft, the forced jobs, and the taxes they would have to pay. He was trying to open their eyes to the seriousness. They would get far more than they bargained for. By looking to government, they were rejecting God. Samuel warned them that the day would come when they would regret their choice. They would eventually cry out to God. They would discover that God would not answer them.

We want to thank Truby and Gary for again having their Fourth of July party Saturday night. The food was delicious and the fireworks great. We invite you to attend church with us Sunday.
