Jerwers
a salary of $40,888 per year, along with
a health benefits package that costs the
county $912.55 per month, or an additional
$10,950.60 annually.
When approached with the subject of his
limited availability and short work days,
Jerwers was unapologetic. Referring to himself as a lame duck, he acknowledged both
his absenteeism and his brief work schedule.
Yeah, that would probably be correct,
Jerwers said, adding that he is working to
secure employment beyond the end of the
year as a rationale for his behavior. This
past week Ive been working with a possible
future employer.
Jerwers did assert that he is obliging the
fundamentals of his position as commissioner
by signing bills, but implied that anything
above and beyond that is not his concern.
I believe thats up to whichever candidate
will take over at the end of the year, he said.

Crackdown
on impaired
driving set
Information submitted
LIMA The Lima Allen
County Safe Community
Coalition, along with their
law enforcement partners,
want to remind Allen County
drivers to Drive Sober or Get
Pulled Over. The nationwide
Labor Day Drive Sober or Get
Pulled Over selective enforcement crackdown will begin on
Friday, Sept. 2, and continue
through Labor Day, Sept. 5.
To call community attention to the risks associated
with impaired driving, the
Coalition will hold a media
event in Robb Park on Robb
Avenue, mid-block between
Metcalf Avenue and West
Street. The Lima Allen County
Safe Community Coalition
will also be joined by local
traffic safety advocates,
including: Cory Noonan,
Allen County Commissioner;
Sgt. Matthew Schmenk,
Ohio State Highway Patrol,
Lima Post; Justin Laudeck,
St. Ritas Medical Center;
Pam Styer, Mothers Against
Drunk Driving (MADD); and
Candace Ehrnsberger, the
mother of OVI crash victim,
Aaron Ehrnsberger.
The media event is dedicated to Aaron Ehrnsbergers
memory. Aaron was tragically
and needlessly killed in an
impaired-driving hit-and-run
crash on May 31, 2015, at
the intersection of Allentown
Road and Kenilworth Avenue.
Aarons family will share what
it means to lose a loved one
unexpectedly in an impaired
driving crash.
In each year from 201014, more than 10,000 people died in highway crashes
across the nation, involving a
driver or motorcycle operator
with an illegal blood alcohol
concentration of .08 or higher;
that is one person every 53
minutes. Across the nation,
during the 2014 Labor Day
weekend, almost half (48%)
of all fatalities involved one
or more impaired drivers - 190
people died. Evelyn Smith,
Project Director for Safe
Communities added: We can
prevent even one more person
from dying, or being seriously
injured, in an impaired driving
crash. Impaired driving crashes are not accidents; someone
chose to drive impaired. They
are 100% preventable. It is
up to all of us to choose to
make our roads safer. If you
choose to drink choose not
to drive.
Be responsible and dont
risk it you will be caught.
If you plan to drink,
choose a non-drinking designated driver before going
out; or take transit, a taxicab,
or ask a sober friend to drive
you home.
Spend the night where the
activity is being held.
Report impaired drivers
to law enforcement.
Always buckle up its
your best defense against an
impaired driver.

Kahle/Atterberry
(BPT) - As summer winds down, the excitement of back-toschool shopping, new classes and making new friends are top of
mind for children across the country. Parents face the familiar challenge of getting their children prepared for a successful year. The
demands of a new school year, however, can be nerve-wracking.
Between new teachers, an increased workload and a new schedule,
excitement can quickly turn into worry.
The good news is when parents are involved in their childrens
education, children tend to do better and have more positive feelings about going to school. And students who actively engage in
educational opportunities learn more and better than students who
take a more passive approach to learning. In fact, research shows
students reading above grade level in the third grade are more
likely to graduate from high school at higher rates and students
who take advanced math courses by high school are more likely to
attend and graduate from college.
One skill essential to childrens academic success is the ability to learn on their own, says Dominique Ciccarelli, education
spokesperson for Kumon North America. Its important for
parents to help cultivate confident and independent children who
become lifelong learners both inside and outside the classroom.
Fortunately, there are many ways parents can encourage learning opportunities. Here are five easy ways parents can support their
childrens learning at home and throughout the school year:
*Encourage your child to read. Turn reading sessions into a
fun and engaging activity. Reading to kids exposes them to richer
vocabulary than adults normally use in day-to-day life and can
positively impact their language, intelligence and later literacy
achievement. As they get older, continue to make reading a daily
activity whether you read to them, they read to you or you read
together. Reading is not just an important milestone in a childs
education; it also opens doors to a lifetime of entertainment and
enrichment.
*Promote active learning at home. Turn daily routines into
practical learning opportunities. Children learn problem-solving,
math, science and vocabulary as they help with groceries, cooking
and even laundry. Cooking with your children is an excellent way
to further develop math skills by having your children help with
measurements. Incorporate learning and fun by hosting a weekly family game night. Educational board games like Monopoly
encourage children to read, interact and count with currency.

You ever wonder
what its like to be
the best I mean,
the very BEST at
something and then
walk away from it
at a relatively young
age?
I am referring to
the unprecedented
Olympiad achievements of the likes of Michael Phelps and
Usain Bolt.
Phelps apparently has decided that at the age of 31, with 28
swimming medals 23 golds and counting. that this is his
swan song from the Olympics, that he is hanging it up.
Still, apparently, he hasnt completely ruled out 2020.
Bolt, at 29, has also seemingly decided to call it quits after
the completion of the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro,
Brazil.
Hey, if they want to try in four years, more power to them.
Theyve deserved that right to give it another go should
they want to go through the training, though they both would
be four years older.
Should they not, they have also reserved the right to make
that decision and leave those competitive worlds behind.
Phelps is by far the greatest swimmer ever, so I wonder what
is going through his head in the last days of these Olympics as
his career is coming to a close.
Is he almost relieved to know that he goes out on top, his
skills undiminished?
After all, havent we seen many of our heroes in other venues hang on a little too long?
The Ottoville golf team for 2016 has, front row left to right, Evan Turnwald, Hannah Hoehn and Ethan Geise; and back
I can think of the great Willie Mays as one.
row, Coach Jim Brown, Zach Knippen, Andy Schimmoeller, Kaleb Hanicq, Dylan Kemper and Tyler Birr. (DHI Media/
The same for Bolt, who is the most decorated sprinter in Katie Schnipke Photography)
Olympic history and will go out on top.
Do you think either is going to be able to shut off those
competitive juices at a basically young age or do you expect to
see either compete in the future, albeit in another sport?
Could we see Phelps trying to be a golfer, for example,
though I dont know of his interest in the sport?
Or Bolt maybe cycling?
When you think about it, Phelps is in great health and
according to published reports, he consumes 10,000 calories a
day when hes training!
He has a furnace for metabolism but one wonders what he
will have to do should he stop training.
He could become an ambassador for the sport.
Heck, I could see him emerge in other avenues, like acting.
He already has a pretty good stream of endorsements.
Bolt also has many endorsement deals, so both can take
their time and figure it out.
Or else they can just kick back with a Pina Colada in one
hand listening to Jimmy Buffett and sit on the seashore in
Jamaica, looking back at great careers.
After all, they have given up a lot to be where they are now
and maybe they have decided they arent going to give anything else up and be a normal human being.
I wish them well but it might be tempting.
Nah!

Injuries inpacting
MLB playoff chase
While the forced retirement of Alex Rodriguez dominated the mid-August news, other teams suffered significant blows through season-ending injuries. Heres a look
at some recent game-changing developments for several
clubs who are squarely in playoff contention as August
wanes.
Groin injury shelves Stanton for 16
Despite significant injuries to its starting rotation and
a half-season suspension to second baseman Dee Gordon
that ended on July 28, Miami entered Aug. 15 a half-game
behind St. Louis for the National Leagues final Wild Card
spot. But the Marlins playoff chances took a significant hit
when they announced that right fielder Giancarlo Stantons
groin injury, suffered on Aug. 13, would end his season.
Stantons batting line (.244/.329/.496) and WAR number
(2.3) dont accurately reflect how much hell be missed.
The 26-year-old posted a 6.5 WAR in his last full season
(2014), and after a slow start to 2016, Stanton had posted a
.273/.333/.591 line, with a pair of home runs, over his last
seven games.
Stanton, who has MLBs only home run of at least 500
feet this year (he hit it in Colorado on Aug. 6), may have
the games best raw power. Thats a commodity now in
short supply in Miami. Take away Stantons 25 blasts, and
Miami has fewer home runs than any team in baseball.
The Marlins are fortunate that his replacement, Ichiro
Suzuki (.316/.388/.386) has had a career resurgence at age
42. But Suzuki has two home runs in 1,067 plate appearances over the last three seasons, and Justin Bour, the Marlins leader in slugging percentage (.526) since July 3, has
been been sidelined by an ankle injury.
Its been a great run for manager Don Mattinglys club,
but this might be a season killer.
Neck surgery ends Fielders fine career
Days after the A-Rod announcement, another former
perennial All-Star also announced hed be hanging up the
cleats. In a tearful press conference, Texas slugger Prince
Fielder announced he would be undergoing career-ending
neck surgery.
Once one of baseballs most durable players, Fielder, 32,
played just 89 games this season during which he posted
a career-worst .212/.292/.334 stat line. Since becoming an
MLB regular in 2006, Fielder played the full 162 games
four times, and never fewer than 157, until neck problems
ended his 2014 season after 42 games.
The injuries ruined any chance Fielder had to make a run
at the Hall of Fame, as he registered just 0.3 career WAR
since the injury first surfaced. Four times, Fielder ranked
in the top 10 of his leagues Most Valuable Player vote.
His final career numbers included 319 home runs and a
.283/.382/.506 batting line.
Fielders retirement may help Texas. According to Baseball Reference as of Aug. 15, Fielders minus-1.4 WAR
was the worst mark of the 37 Rangers whove seen action
in 2016. First base will be manned by Mitch Moreland (1.4
WAR in 365 plate appearances) and Jurickson Profar (0.4
in 222), whos seen action everywhere except catcher, center field and right field.
Tribe outfielder Brantley finished for the season
Left fielder/DH Michael Brantley had been a fixture
in the Cleveland lineup for the past four years. In 2014,
he played at a near-MVP level in 2014 with a 6.8 WAR
that ranked fourth in the American League. Brantley, 29,
seemed primed for another terrific year in 2016, but shoulder and biceps injuries limited him to just 11 games before
Cleveland announced on Aug. 13 that he was done for the
season.
While not having Brantley certainly hurts, the Indians,
who surprisingly rank third in baseball in runs per game,
have adjusted exceptionally well without him. Surprising production from rookie center fielder Tyler Naquin
(.314/.378/594) has helped replace Brantleys bat, and
a committee of Abraham Almonte, Rajai Davis and Jose
Ramirez has filled in admirably in left.
Impact arms hit the shelf
Not long ago, Boston knuckleballer Steven Wright led
the AL in ERA. But Wrights ERA has risen exactly a run to
3.01 since June 20, and now, hes on the DL with a shoulder
problem, which he sustained in an Aug. 6 pinch-running
appearance against the Dodgers. The drop-off from Wright
to his replacement, Clay Buchholz (5.66 ERA) is huge.
The St. Louis rotation was mediocre with Michael Wacha (4.45 ERA), and now the Cardinals will have to do
without him. Right shoulder inflammation related to a 2014
surgery landed Wacha on the DL, and may cost him the
season. The Cardinals hope that 22-year-old Luke Weaver,
their first-round pick of 2014, will see his incredible minor
league work (he had a 1.30 ERA between 83 Class AA and
AAA innings this year) translate into quality innings in the
majors.
Meanwhile, the Cubs hope that John Lackeys shoulder
stiffness, which knocked him out of an Aug. 14 start, isnt
serious.
The Dodgers acquired 36-year-old starter Rich Hill (2.25
ERA) from Oakland to boost a rotation already hurting
from Clayton Kershaws absence. But Hill hasnt pitched
for L.A. since being acquired on Aug. 1, and a blister suffered in a minor league rehab bullpen session on Aug. 14
has pushed his debut date back further.

Financial
School
its against your best financial interest. Feeonly advisors are often held to a fiduciary
standard, while commission-based advisors
usually work under a suitability standard.
Get to know your potential advisor.
Beyond competence and integrity, make sure
you get along with your financial advisor.
Personal finance can be a sensitive and stressful topic, so you want to be able to discuss
issues openly with your advisor as they arise.
Ensure advisors operate with transparency. Though ideally you will never need to
file a complaint, its important to ensure the
advisors you work with make it easy to do so.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
(CFPB)s website allows customers who havent been able to file a complaint with a company to do so directly in the CFPB complaint
database. The database is open to the public,
so you can also search for companies youre
interested in working with and check the
credibility and reliability of their services.
See if you fit the profile of a typical
client. If you choose to hire an investment
advisor that typically works with wealth management clients and youre asking them to
manage a much smaller amount of money, he
or she might not be the advisor for you. Ask
your potential advisor about the kinds of clients he or she manages money for and whether he or she has experience managing money
for someone with similar assets to you.
Decide what their qualifications should
be based on your needs. Depending on what
you want your advisor to accomplish for you,
decide what you think his or her qualifications should be and see if they match up to
your expectations. Its important to check certifications for example, Certified Financial
Planners (CFPs) must pass a test covering
financial categories from retirement to taxes.
For more information on financial certifications, check out FINRAs complete list and
explanations of professional designations.
Also, search for advisors who have years of
experience working with clients.
Bottom line: While there are many qualified financial advisors out there, its important to find the right match for you. Regardless
of your income, a good financial advisor can
make your life easier and suggest ways to
help you grow your money. Hiring one that
is not a good fit could complicate your financial situation, so research your options before
making a commitment.

Council
Coleman also presented proposed pool ticket prices for the 2017
season.
These are just a proposal. Im giving them to you tonight so you can
look them over and we can talk about it at the next meeting, he added.
In new business, Councilman Mark Clement provided a chart for
fellow councilmen outlining the citys employees healthcare costs at
present, several commutations for possible increases and what employees
are currently contributing to the cost.
I want to get things started on this before we get the rates in October,
Clement said. Ive put this together for you guys to look at and I just
need to know if you want to do anything tonight.
Councilman Joe Martz spoke quickly.
I am doing nothing on this tonight, he said. We need to have a
budget meeting and discussion.
Councilman Jim Fortener agreed.
This is not an option tonight, he said.
Finance Committee Chair Josh Gillespie was in line with Clement.
I agree we need to start looking at this sooner rather than later,
he directed at Clement. We need to start the budget discussion soon
and have it in our heads what we want to do when we get the rates in
October.
Council approved a single utilities adjustment for 415 West Fifth St. A
portion of the residents overage was denied in May. The second portion
was brought to council Monday. The resident reported a toilet leak and a
leak at a shut-off valve at his washing machine. Repairs were made and
upon a second reading, everything seemed to be back to normal. The
adjustment was for $991.53.
The first meeting in September has been moved from Sept. 5 to Sept.

Next Generation
Summer breaks have always been that glorious time of year when students recess from
the rigorous setting of the academic classroom and experience the classroom of life.
For several St. Johns students, they chose
to spend a week of their summer vacation
focused on a spiritual recess while providing
labor and service to those who needed it.
Eleven students and four chaperones attended Catholic Heart Workcamp in Chicago,
Illinois, on July 24-30. These St. Johns
students, led by Kim Honigford, Director of
Youth Ministry, were able to provide a variety
of service to individuals and families in need
of assistance in Chicago, including painting
houses for service organizations and working
with adults with mental disabilities, as well
as working with homeless people at a food
pantry.
According to the Catholic Heart Workcamp
website, it is centered on the pillars of service,
connection and loving others. The workcamp,
founded in 1993, has grown from 100 participants to over 13,000 who served in 2015. It
is a week that is Christ-centered, one to help
youth connect deeper with their faith, and a
way for youth to serve others and have the
opportunity to love and assist the least among
us.
Colin White, 10th grade, was a first-year
participant with the goal of expanding his
horizons: I wanted to get out of my comfort
zone, meet new people and serve others.
And he did exactly that: Our work group
was intermixed with an eighth-grader, a freshman, two sophomores, a junior and a senior.
I was the only St. Johns student in my group
but our group leader was from St. Johns
[Patty Gerberick].
Whites group painted rooms for Neumann
Family Services, a residential program that
integrates adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities into the Chicago community. They covered multiple stories of the
house, including upstairs living areas, dining
room and hallways throughout the residency.
Not everyone in the group was new to the
Catholic Heart Workcamp. Haley Rode, 11th
grade, attended for her second year in a row.
Last year, she participated in the program at
Farmington, Michigan, by providing service
to a local school there by gardening, pulling
weeds in the landscaping and cleaning out
classrooms.
This year, the service Rode did at a Chicago
Catholic Heart Workcamp participants included, front from left, Adam Schrader,
Brandon Slate and Colin White; row two, Ally Gerberick, Haley Rode, Alexis Deffenbaugh
and Madison Fulk; row three, Jana Hamilton, Kayla Pohlman, Lexie Hays and Brooklyn
Mueller; and back, chaperones Maggie Wannemacher, Patty Gerberick, Deacon Tony
Coci and Kim Honigford. (Submitted photo)
bers, receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation
and open your eyes and heart to God - it
helped me a lot in growing in my faith.
This year, she experienced Four Corners
from a mentoring perspective: I had a lot of
people come and talk to me about their faith,
which I didnt expect. They usually go to the
adults but since they knew I had done this
before. I had peers coming up and asking me
questions and that was an interesting experience.
The program also included fun and interactive skits, worship music with a contem-

BELLEFONTAINE Recently, seven members of the newly-elected Delphos FFA Officer
Team traveled to Camp Wilson and Marmon Valley Farms in Bellefontaine for a day of officer
training.
The group spent the day doing a team-challenge course, including low- and high-rope initiatives to develop teamwork horseback riding.

upcoming year.

Good Vibrations
By Ed Clark
Highwayman (Waylon
Jennings, Willie Nelson &
Kris Kristofferson) No. 1
1985
Regarding his mystique,
his daughter Rosanne said,
He was a real man with
great faults and great genius
and beauty in him, but he
wasnt this guy who could
save you or anyone else.
(songfacts.com)
Troubled, rebellious and
revered Johnny Cash transcended his music in our
American culture. A man
with his own TV Show
(1969), a man who sang in
prisons, (Folsom Prison 1968, San Quentin
1969) an everyday working kind of man, an
incredibly talented music man.
You can treat yourself (YouTube.com) to the
A Man In Black song where Johnny Cash
sings as to why hes the man in black. Good
Stuff. You can also view the critically acclaimed
movie about this man (2005) Walk The Line
(72 Metascore). Now some time after his passing
(2003), a good many remember Johnny Cash
The Man in Black as a flawed, likeable,
music legend of a man. Good Vibrations.
