Caloosa Belle, Thursday, February 22, 2007 Lent focuses on Christian spirituality By The Rev Alan Kelmereit Church of the Good Shepherd Many Christians observe the season of Lent as a part of their spiritual practice, but many others have little or no understanding of what Lent really is. It is frequently understood as a time of year to give something up, perhaps chocolate, or desserts, or some other thing that we like. Often, the reason behind the "giving up" is not well understood, so the question is raised, "What is Lent?" Although the name "Lent' was- n't used until much later, a period of preparation for the celebration of Easter has been observed since the early centuries of the church. Easter is a day of joy, of recalling Jesus' resurrection, but the people found that their joy was greatly increased if they fully understood the sacrifice and pain that preced- ed resurrection. Lent began as a time of personal spiritual reflection and self examination. It was a time for repentance and correction of life. For new believers, it was also a time of preparation for baptism which was usually done at the Easter Vigil, the traditional service of Easter Eve. Lent has historically been a time of prayer, fasting and giving to peo- ple in need. Christians often com- mit themselves to spending addi- tional time in prayer during this season, and sometimes accompa- ny that with times of fasting. Unfor- tunately, many Christians today misunderstand the purpose of fast- ing. Some think that it is an effort to gain favor or to earn some reward from God. Rather, fasting is an act of self discipline which helps us focus on the spiritual side of our lives. The time gained by this sacri- fice is used for prayer to help us draw closer to and deepen our relationship with God. In addition, the money saved by this "giving up" can be used to help provide for the needs of others. Lent begins on Ash Wednes- day, when many Christians follow the biblical practice of using ashes as a sign of repentance, and lasts for forty days, ending the day before Easter. Sunday are not included in the count because each Sunday is a "little Easter," a celebration of Jesus' resurrection. The last week of Lent, known as Holy Week, is a time when many churches as well as individuals emphasize preparation for the Easter celebration. Maundy Thursday is named from the Latin word mandatum, the first word of Jesus instruction to his disciples, "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another as I have loved you." It is most often observed either by a reenactment of Jesus' final meal with his disci- ples, or of his humble act of wash- ing his followers' feet. Good Fri- day recalls the day of Jesus' crucifixion and is usually observed with worship services or times of prayer that keep a vigil during the hours he hung on the cross. One of the unfortunate results of lack of knowledge about Lent is that many people ignore it and the potential it has for spiritual growth. There are no rules for how Lent must be observed, but there are many suggestions avail- able from Christians who observe Lent, from churches and pastors, from books and pamphlets, and from the internet. A recent emphasis for Lent has been taking on a special discipline such as prayer or helping others, rather than just giving something up. This certainly can help restore the original Lenten emphasis of spiri- tual growth. If you have ignored Lent in the past, for whatever rea- son, now is a good time to con- centrate on your spiritual growth through an observance of this Lent. Ubiquitous times in Hendry: tax refunds Caloosa Belle/Kristin Hunter Anna Ripperdan said, "My favorite Swamp Cabbage memory is the year that my son, Zach Palmer was seven years old, and he, my best friend's son and my recep- tionist's daughter all dressed up in their western cowboy outfits and they had a blast at the tractor pulls where little kids got on little tractors and raced each other pulling a load. The kids were having a blast and we had a great time watching them. We laughed and laughed. It was hilarious watching them in their little chaps, shirts and hats on. I wish they would bring the tractor pulls back to Swamp 'Cabbage because it was just q.so mqch.fun." Larry Spencer said, "I like all of Swamp Cabbage. I love everything about it. I look forward to it because once a year it's something to do. I love funnel cake and that's the only time of year that I get it. I used to go to Don Davis and Ronnie Lee's par- ties a long time ago. Talk about fun, now that was fun. I like listening to the music too. I want them to bring Mel Tillis back or his daughter Pam Tillis." Rick Marquith said, "My favorite Swamp Cabbage memory happened a few years ago when my son, Adam, was in the band "Chase" and they played at the park. It was a country band and he was the drummer. I lived next door to the Barron Park in those little apartments and we just made a party out of it. We had a bar- becue and we had a great weekend. And also, about three years ago, the first year that the Legion Riders were in the parade and I rode with them is a great memory too." k .. : .'- Evelyn White said, "My fond- est memories of Swamp Cab- bage are from when my chil- dren and grandchildren were involved in it. When my grandchildren were in the pageants or marching in the band and when my daughter Trudy and her husband Mark played in a band at the park one year. What I miss most about Swamp Cabbage is the coronation ball they used to have every year for the Swamp Cabbage Pageant Queen and Princess. It was a semi-formal event and added class to Swamp Cabbage. I'd like to See a little bit more of LaBelle's own talent. It's good to have a headliner, but its' also good to see our own perform too." I trust you know by this time how I prefer to accentuate the posi- tive and minimize the negative, so it pains me to be the bearer of sad news. I just learned that with all the sadness and trauma going on in the world today, it is worth reflect- ing on the death of a very impor- tant person, which almost went unnoticed last week. Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote: "Doing the Hokey Pokey" died in his sleep at the ripe old age of 93. Losing him is and was a loss to anyone who enjoyed doing the "Hokey Pokey," but it was extreme- ly traumatic for the family when they tried to put him in the coffin. First they put his left leg in, and that's when the trouble started. As if that bit of news wasn't enough, I just heard about a guy in my home state of Indiana who walked into the welfare office stat- ing that he hated drawing welfare, and would rather have a job. Well, this really excited the social worker who informed him that his timing was excellent. They had just gotten a request from a very wealthy old man who wanted a chauffeur and bodyguard for his beautiful daugh- ter. He was informed that the job Update on LABELLE-- The.- Florida Department of Health (DOH) confirms three cases of Salmor.el- ? la Tennessee in Florida that match the national salmonellosis out- break strain.

Mary Ruth Prouty Exercise has many benefits. Our bodies thrive on regular physical activity and exercise provides both physical and emotional rewards. Exercise can: decrease your blood pressure, decrease your total blood cho- lesterol, and decrease your blood sugar. These physical effects decrease the risk of stroke, heart disease and diabetes. Among the emotional benefits of exercise are an improved sense of well-being and improved sleep. Exercise affects our brain chemistry and can help treat mild depression. Exercise increases the body's metabolic rate. Regular exercise can raise the number of calories your body uses for some time, even afteryou have finishedyour activity. What else does exercise do for you? It aids digestion. It boosts energy. It decreases a woman's risk of developing endometriosis by 50 percent. It decreases the tendency of the blood to clot in the blood ves- sels and that is important because small clots traveling in the blood are often the cause of heart attacks and strokes. It enlarges the arteries that supply blood to the heart. It helps your body to get rid of toxins and other waste products. Exercise is particularly beneficial for smokers as it combats lung- damage and helps protect against poisons in the bloodstream. It improves your circulation, thus improving your skin, hair and eyes. It improves your sex life. It increases HDL (good) cholesterol. It increases the thickness of carti- lage in joints which has a protective effect on the joints. It is good for the brain. It maintains, tones and strengthens your muscle and increases your muscular endurance. It strengthens your bones and muscles which helps to prevent aches and pains as well as osteoporosisand arthritis. Exercise is the magic potionweall need! Want to get some exercise with a fun walk? Join us this Saturday and Sunday from 1 until 4 p.m. at the LaBelle Nature Park on Fraser Avenue for guided walks through one of LaBelle's best-kept secrets - its beautiful nature park.

He soon moved to Stokes County, North Carolina, (now Forsyth County), where he estab- lished the first tan yard in the area. A devout man, he was raised in the German Reformed Church, but in 1789 the preaching of a Methodist circuit rider that caused a profound change in him. He converted to Methodism and became a Methodist minister himself, spreading the faith to oth- ers in his area. He and his neigh- bors eventually built a brick church called Doub's Chapel across from his home. A grave- yard at the church still testifies to the Doub family's religious con- viction being the final resting place of no less than seven Methodist ministers from the Doub family. John and his wife, Mary Eve Spainhour, had nine children, including three Methodist minis- ters. The couple's youngest son, Peter was a minister and founder of Greensboro Female College in 1838. Peter's son, William Clark Doub, was born in 1824 and was a professor of natural science and foreign languages at Greensboro Female College. He also taught at Trinity College (presently Duke University). It was his wife, Susan Duty Doub, who was the great granddaughter of Elizabeth Watts Earle of the first band of Mayflower pilgrims and great niece of Dr. Isaac Watts, the father of hymnology. It is with William's son, Fletch- er Harris Doub, that this story really begins because he eventu- ally brought his family to LaBelle. Born in Greensboro, NC April 28, 1866, Fletcher attended Duke Uni- versity and became an engineer. He was a schoolmate and lifelong friend of American author O. Henry (William Sidney Porter). Fletcher served in the Spanish- American War. He could speak five languages, including Spanish. As an emissary of the President, he was sent to Jacksonville. Liking the area so much, he purchased 12 acres in Whitehouse, FL, where he later moved. He served in Cuba and Mexico during the war, then traveled the world with Va Submitted photo/Brenda Hoots Fletcher Harris Doub and his wife, Maria Susanna Motino Doub. his friend, 0. Henry, ending up in Honduras. Fletcher accepted a position as an engineer at a silver mine there. At the age of 44, he met and married 19-year-old Maria Susanna Motino in 1910. While in Honduras, the couple had four children: Laura, Albert, Rosa and William. They moved to San Salvador where Fletcher served as an American attach during World War I. At this time he was given the honorary title, "Don Enrique." In San Salvador, Charlie Doub was born. Because Fletcher didn't like the education system there, he moved his family back to the United States to Alameda, Califor- nia. They started a hat factory, producing hats Susana knew how to make. The Singer pedestal sewing machine she used is now at the LaBelle Heritage Museum. The weather there was too cold for Susana's hats to sell, so the family decided to move to the property Fletcher had purchased in Whitehouse, Florida. They financed their trip by selling Susana's hats. In Whitehouse, they took on a partner who, after learning to make the hats himself, promptly began his own busi- ness, selling them cheaper. With the decline of the hat business and terrifying episodes with local moonshiners, Fletcher again decided to move his family. This time, he decided that the land chosen by the likes of Henry Ford, Harry Firestone and Thomas Edison to grow rubber plants LaBelle was the place they should be. By that time, they had six children: Laura, 13, Rosa, 11, Pete, 8, Charlie, 6, Carmen, 3, and Landon, 1. Later they would add two more: Mary Julia and John Fletcher. In LaBelle, Mr. Doub started several businesses, including a newspaper stand in an old build- ing at the current site of LaBelle Real Estate. He later moved the store across the street and added cigarettes and other items to the inventory; then moved back across the street to a two-story wooden building where the fami- ly ran a grocery and mercantile store with living quarters in the back. The store is now the site of Jackson River Furniture Store. The couple's six children flour- ished in LaBelle. Laura was born in Honduras. She graduated from LaBelle High School in 1931 as salutatorian. She moved to Belle Glade with sister Rosa; met and married Carl Lockmiller. They started their own store, The Glades Hardware in 1946. Retiring in 1977, she went to work at Gove Elementary in the ESE department. For 30 years she taught catechism to youngsters at St. Phillip Benizi Catholic Church. When Carl died she moved to West Palm Beach where she died in 2005. Albert: deceased in infancy. Rosa married Lawrence Her- bert Nash, Sr. and had two chil- dren: Millie Nash Vilmerding and Lawrence Herbert Nash, Jr. Submiled pnolo. Irene Doub An early Doub Family photo including: Fletcher, William "Pete", Laura and her husband Carl Lockmiller, Susanna and Rosa. Front row: Lawrence Herbert Nash Jr., Johnny, Camella, Lan- don and Rosa's daughter Milllcent Vilmerding. Pete was born in Honduras. At age 12 he helped build the Hendry County Courthouse by watering down the bricks. A LaBelle High School graduate, he spent time in the CCC, eventually returning to LaBelle. He served in the Army Air Corps during World War II and was on a ship in the English Channel during the Nor- mandy Invasion. He and first wife started a clothing store in half the family's general store on Bridge Street and served as LaBelle City Commissioner. He later moved his business to Immokalee on New Market Road a store he continues to run at the age of 91. Charlie: deceased. Carmen (Camella) married James O. Mayton, in Orlando where she first attended school, then worked at a civil service job. Mr. Mayton was a career service- man and the family moved to many different bases and eventu- ally settled in New Mexico. They had three sons: James Jr., William and Rodney. Landon was a year old when the family moved to LaBelle from Whitehouse. He was drafted into the Army in 1943. he served as a medical technician with the 36th Texas Infantry Division and was sent to Italy. During the battle of Anzio a shell exploded near his foxhole, causing blindness, deaf- ness, crushing a shoulder and leg, spreading shrapnel throughout his body and causing a residual cerebral concussion. A telegram classified him as Missing in Action, but he was later found in a hospital. His sight and hearing were restored and he was given an honorable discharge with sev- eral medals, including the Purple Heart. He returned to work at the Belle Glade Post Office but always wanted to return to LaBelle. He married Mildred Irene Strickland in 1950 and a daughter, Melissa, was born to them in 1951. Lan- don brought his family to LaBelle where he worked with the Florida State Road Department. The cou- ple welcomed two sons to the family: Harry Edsel and Curtis Lee. Landon's World War II injuries continued to take a toll on him till eventually he was unable to work. Irene accepted a job with the Everglades Experiment Station in Belle Glade, where she had worked after high school testing cordage. In 1962 the USDA sent her to Taiwan to teach a group of Chinese students how to test cordage fibers. In 1965 the project was ended and Irene was sent to Knoxville, Tenn., to work in a cot- ton testing lab, so the family relo- cated there. By 1969 Landon's health improved and they returned to Belle Glade where he worked at the Glades Correctional Institution and Irene with the USDA sugarcane project in Canal Point. Irene later worked as book- keeper for the Belle Glade Herald and then as Municipal Court clerk. In 1973 the family returned to LaBelle so Landon could work with DOT. Landon died of cancer in 1983. Mary Julia married Tom Chap- pell, a Royal Air Force major in 1942, in Belle Glade. He was assigned to instruct British cadets in the classroom and firing range, teaching bombing and midair shooting and recognition of air- craft markings. She went him to England for a time, but they returned to Florida to live and thrive. They had five children: Richard, Stuart, Jeffery, Brian and Susan. Johnny served in the Air Force, returning to work for the state road department for 31 years. He and wife Dora Louise Maddox Townsend, who brought one daughter, Debra, to the marriage. The couple then had two more daughters Tracey and Susan. 2007 Grand Marshal Bill Maddox Jr. wears many hats By Kristin Hunter WT. "Bill" Maddox is the 2007 Swamp Cabbage Parade Grand Marshall. Bill is a life-long resident of Hendry County. Most of his adult life has been spent in the cattle industry and law enforcement. Presently he is in his 2nd term as a Hendry County Commissioner; he's also the Pastor of the First Christian Church. He is married to Linda Johnson Maddox. Bill says "she is the second best blessing - second only to the Trinity God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spir- it." Bill would like to tell every- one he has been truly blessed in his life. "I was raised here in LaBelle and have had many peo- ple play large roles in shaping my life. I thank every one of them from the bottom of my heart. I look over the list of for- mer Grand Marshall's and I am truly humbled. It is an honor to have my name added to this list. I hope and pray everyone has a safe and enjoyable time this Swamp Cabbage weekend. Hope to see you at church on Sunday!" Bill Maddox, Sr. was Grand Marshall in 1969 and the Mad- dox family was Pioneer Family in 1990. When Bill was young he Submitted photo/Brenda Hoots Bill Maddox, Jr., 2007 SCF Grand Marshal. dreamed of becoming a veteri- narian. Well, it's funny how life changes things. Little did he know he would become almost everything but. He became a Pastor, County Commissioner, cattleman, ex-National Guards- man, retired law enforcement deputy and now 2007 Swamp Cabbage Grand Marshall. Bill said he became a County Commissioner because he thought he could help make a difference in changing LaBelle. Although, he said that being a County Commissioner can be very frustrating and humbling; you can want to change some- thing but then not have the power to do so." When asked why he went into law enforcement he had this to say, "I never intended to be a deputy but law enforce- ment was very good to me. It just worked out that way. He was attending Edison Community College at the time, taking general courses when he started out working for law enforcement in Hendry County as a dispatcher on the midnight shift and then eventually became a deputy. He went on from Hendry County to Glades County and then retired from law enforcement from the Semi- nole tribe as Deputy Director after serving a total of 27 years from 1969-1996. He said that he deeply respects the Seminoles and still has a lot of friends from there. He says that they are a lot less forgiving but a lot easier to read as well. They are a lot more forward and direct than we tend to be. After Edison he joined the National Guard. He was in the National Guard for seven years; six years in Florida and one year in North Carolina. When asked if he had any regrets he said, "Not really. All the ups and downs in life mold you into what you should be." Mr. Maddox said that his mentors were his parents of course, and Pastor Rob Atchley that used to live here in LaBelle. "He was very instrumental in me becoming a true Christian and follower of Christ." When asked what his aspira- tions for the future are he said, In the future I intend to remain in politics on some level, contin- ue preaching as long as the Good Lord will have me and grow old with my wife Mrs. Linda who is a gift from God. Some may not know it, but Bill was actually a part of the very first Swamp Cabbage Festi- val. When he was 18-years-old he was part of the Jr. JCs that helped to put on the very first Swamp Cabbage. He said that at that time you had to live within 50 miles to be a part of Swamp Cabbage. When asked how he would change Swamp Cabbage if he could he said, "It needs to be moved to a larger area. It's too congested downtown. I would turn the parade around and go out towards the Rodeo Grounds and I think it would be nice to have a Bluegrass or Southern Gospel concert as well." He says that Swamp Cabbage is good for LaBelle because it brings tourists to the area. Mr. Maddox says his greatest accomplishment is becoming a pastor and being able to serve the Lord by spreading his word. He only been a Pastor for three years and although he has had no formal training, (he is what is called a lay minister) because he did not go to school for ministry, he said he decided to become a Pastor because he was called by the Good Lord to do so. The church was in need of a Pastor so he filled in at first and then even- tually became the full time pas- tor. At the time he was an elder and chairman of the board at the church. Mr. Maddox has three chil- dren: Chad Willis of Felda, Krista Bumgartner of South Carolina and Rhonda Maddox of North Carolina. When asked what advice he would give to a young person he said, "First and foremost keep the Lord in your life but more than focusing on a life long career find a good partner. Make God your first priority and then your hus- band/wife your second priority. Never zero in on one type of work to where you can't see the beauty of another and never hang all your hopes on one star." B.S. Cline recalls cattle industry By Kristin Hunter Seventy-five-year-old B.S. Cline is a good ole' boy from the South, who worked as a ranch hand for 50 years. Born in Arca- dia on Feb. 1, 1932, and raised in Venus and then Lake Placid, he is the eldest of five siblings, hav- ing four younger sisters: Lettie, Opal, Betty and Norma Jean. He started working summers for Lykes Brothers when he was 15, a practice he continued until he was 18. When he turned 18 and grad- uated high school he started working on the ranch full time until he was 23. At the ripe old age of 23 he then moved to LaBelle, got mar- ried and started working on the 31,500 acre Barron Ranch, building fence, marking, brand- ing, doctoring and rounding up cattle. After the Barron property Caloosa Belle/Kristin Hunter Cattleman of the Year B.S. Cline was sold to General Develop- out at Marshall Field Road for ment Corporation, he went to the remainder of his work as a work for the Barron's grandkids cattleman.

Since the mid-1980s, the company that has sponsored the winning driver of NASCAR's premiere event has pretty much tanked in the stock market that year. On average over that time, the stock of the company that sponsored the winner has trailed the market byalmost 20%. The biggest one- year gap between the S&P average and the sponsor's stock performance occurred in 1997 when DuPont, sponsor of winner Jeff Gordon, lost 36% while the S&P gained 31%.

I Based on percentage of free throws Made among those players who have I attempted at least 1,500 in their careers, I topping the list is Mark Price, who shot 1 90.4% primarily with Cleveland. Price is Closely followed by Hall of Famer Rick Barry at 90%. Older fans might remem- ber that Barry was the last ofthe under- handed free throw shooters something that should be considered by the like of Shaquille O'Neal (52%) and Ben Wallace, the worst career free throw shooter at a shocking 41.9% entering the 2006-07 season.

Child Care of Southwest Flori- da, Inc., operates three child care centers in Hendry and Glades counties, including Children's Garden of LaBelle on Highway 80 in LaBelle; Glades County Child Development Center on Hendrix Street in Moore Haven, and Harlem Academy Day Care Cen- ter in Clewiston. The agency also provides services in Lee and Col- lier counties. "It truly is amazing the number of lives we've touched over the years," said Bill Robinson, chair- man of the board of directors of Child Care of Southwest Florida, Inc. "Parents who received care as children in our centers are now adults with families of their own." In addition to providing child care in its 10 directly-operated centers, Child Care of Southwest Florida offers referral services for families seeking child care, con- ducts and coordinates training for child care workers, and adminis- ters the federal and state child care subsidy program for parents who cannot afford child care. "We are very fortunate to have the Early Learning Coalition of Southwest Florida as our partner for the past three years. By work- ing together, we are realizing our goal of providing high quality early childhood education experi- ences for children throughout Southwest Child Care of Southwest Flori- da, Inc., launched its 40th anniversary celebration with the presentation of a cake at a meet- ing of the Early Learning Coalition of Southwest Florida, which coordinates all early childhood education efforts in the four-county Southwest Florida area. Several activities are planned by Child Care of Southwest Flori- da, Inc., to commemorate the 40th anniversary, including a party in Centennial Park in Fort Myers in May and open houses in each of the agency's 10 child care centers. For more information, call (863) 675-8383 in LaBelle or (239) 278-1002 in Fort Myers. -Y Submitted photo/Childcare of Southwest Florida Early childhood education leaders celebrate Child Care of Southwest Florida's 40th birthday with a cake at the Early Learning Coalition of Southwest Florid meeting.
