Toney Dinges!\, longtime instrumental and vocal music teacher in the Meigs Local Schools, was commenting on what might be described as a lesson in life skills. · With March being Music in Our Schools Month. an emphasis of the National Association for Music Education is being placed on getting the message out to students and par· ·ents that there is "real value in music." "Participation in school music groups not only gives students a greater appreciation of music but it prepares them for future success in the world that awaits them after high school. Skills learned through the discipline of music transfer directly to ·study, communication and cogmtive skills .in every part of the school curriculum," said Dingess. "In a band program such as ours , students lea'm to work to~ether toward a common goal, celebratmg both their victories and their disappointments ·and learning to deal with each of these situations in a realistic and mature manner," he added. Dingess described the Meigs band a_s being like any team "comprised of stu· dents with various levels of experience, ability and talenl •.with each having the goal to achieve his or her personal best in each and every perfonnance." He compared band as a "team" effort to "individual" eftort like in traditional classes such as math and science. where success is dependent upon the effort and ability of the individual. ·"It's the team effort which makes band unique," he added . "Success is not entirely up to the individual but to the interaction and efforts of the group."

"' RACINE - Though it may be one of the worst kept secrets in town. the Village of Racine has officially announced a Dollar General Store will be locating across from Hill's Gas Station. · Mayor J. Scott Hill ~aid the deal to bring the store to the village closed on Friday. The company building the store is DGJL. LLC located ih Dublin. Hill said he and village officials are excited to be u part of bringing the store to . town and are ready to maintain and foster even more economic development projects on the horizon. · Hill did confirm that Home · National Bank is moving from its downtown location to the comer across · from Hill's Gas Station. Many residents may've already noticed houses coming down. The Dollar General's parking lot will sit next to the bank while the actual store will sit just back from that. The Dollar General 's actual address will be 602 Elm Slreet. The store will sit on property that was dee<;led from the Southern Local School District to the village last year. Last summer Racine Council entered into a purchase agreement with the Southern Local School District for the deed to the old junio_r high school property for a purchase price no less than 53 cents a square foot which breaks down into 2/3rds of· the appraised value or $22.988 an acre less expenses. No funds are due Southern until Racine receives funds from the ultimate purchaser of each part of the property which ISto be sold for commercial development . No word yet on just how much money the district will received . Racine has been working with lhe Community Improvement Corporation to bring commercial busi ness into the village and is selling the lnts through the CIC for the purpose of ·'conveying deed." If. and now when. the CIC and village .officials find a purchaser(s), that money goes into a fund . then ~oes to the Meigs County ' Auditor's Office for transfer back lo Southern . The store is to be 9 .I 00 SCJ,uare feet. and 70 feet w1de by 130 feet deep . There is no Word yet on the store's ground breaking or just. how soon it can be open for business. Hill guessed it was poss ible the store may_ provide around eight jobs. Hill said the village had been struggling to entice a bu siness like Dollar General to the area for years.

Space shuttle.moves to avoid chunk of space ju~ CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) ·- Confronted with orbiting junk again, NASA ordered the astronauts aboard the linked space station and shuttle Discovery to move out of the way of a piece of debris Sunday. Discovery's pilots fired their ship 's thrusters to orient the two spacecraft nd thereby a void a small tel:e from a 10-year-o ld hinese satellite rocket otor that was due to pass uncomfortably close during Monday's planned spacewalk . Mission Control said ~. keeping the spacecraft in this p.osition for abQut· three hours - with Discovery's belly facing forward would result in a slow, natural drag of about' a foot per . second, enough to get the complex out of the way of the 4-inch piece of junk. Space junk has been a recurring problem for the space station. especially recently. Earlier this month , the three space station residents had to take shelter in their eme·rgency getaway capsule when another piece of orbital debris seemed like it might come too close. And just last week, right before Discovery's arrival, the space station almost had to dodge yet another piece of junk. The debris - from an old busted-up Soviet satellite .,... stayed at a safe distance. "Space debris is becoming an ever-increasing chal· lenge," flight director Kwatsi Alibaruho . said Sunday evening. When it comes to dodging junk, "It's a big deal. It's very tiring. Sometimes it 's exhausting." The latest episode occurred as NASA scram· bled to put together a spacewalking repair plan for a jammed equipment platform at the space station. "That was certainly exciting," Alibaruho said, chuckling. On Monday - on the third and.final spacewalk of Discovery's mission astronauts plan to return to an equipment storage shelf that jammed and could not be deployed Saturday. The spacewalkers accidentally had inserted a pin upside · On Sunday, down. AI ibaruho said the catch for . the mechanism is consider· ably stiffer than expected and engineers now believe the upside-down pin might not be the culprit after all. The H&R Block Guarantee.

Space shuttle.moves to avoid chunk of space ju~ CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) ·- Confronted with orbiting junk again, NASA ordered the astronauts aboard the linked space station and shuttle Discovery to move out of the way of a piece of debris Sunday. Discovery's pilots fired their ship 's thrusters to orient the two spacecraft nd thereby a void a small tel:e from a 10-year-o ld hinese satellite rocket otor that was due to pass uncomfortably close during Monday's planned spacewalk . Mission Control said ~. keeping the spacecraft in this p.osition for abQut· three hours - with Discovery's belly facing forward would result in a slow, natural drag of about' a foot per . second, enough to get the complex out of the way of the 4-inch piece of junk. Space junk has been a recurring problem for the space station. especially recently. Earlier this month , the three space station residents had to take shelter in their eme·rgency getaway capsule when another piece of orbital debris seemed like it might come too close. And just last week, right before Discovery's arrival, the space station almost had to dodge yet another piece of junk. The debris - from an old busted-up Soviet satellite .,... stayed at a safe distance. "Space debris is becoming an ever-increasing chal· lenge," flight director Kwatsi Alibaruho . said Sunday evening. When it comes to dodging junk, "It's a big deal. It's very tiring. Sometimes it 's exhausting." The latest episode occurred as NASA scram· bled to put together a spacewalking repair plan for a jammed equipment platform at the space station. "That was certainly exciting," Alibaruho said, chuckling. On Monday - on the third and.final spacewalk of Discovery's mission astronauts plan to return to an equipment storage shelf that jammed and could not be deployed Saturday. The spacewalkers accidentally had inserted a pin upside · On Sunday, down. AI ibaruho said the catch for . the mechanism is consider· ably stiffer than expected and engineers now believe the upside-down pin might not be the culprit after all. The H&R Block Guarantee.
