POMEROY — Farmers Bank is expanding. On Thursday, Farmers Bancshares, Inc., the parent company of Farmers Bank and Savings Company, announced plans to expand further into West Virginia, with a branch in the Teays Valley area of Putnam County. “In order to stay a viable community bank, the board realized we needed to grow,” Farmers Bank President and CEO Paul Reed told the Senti- nel on Thursday afternoon. “This area has treated us very, very well. We have built a good franchise here,” said Reed of the bank’s current service area, noting that it was time to expand beyond the tricounty region. The idea to move into Teays Valley was well thought out, with an analysis of the potential growth markets having been conducted prior to making the decision on the expansion. “We did an analysis and the population demographics are strong; The growth potential for the bank, even with the competition is going to be tough, we think the growth potential for the bank is there,” said Reed. The overall expansion into Putnam County will be a nearly $4 million investment for the bank, including the construction of the new financial center and land acquisition along State Route 34 between Scott Depot and Hurricane. “The expansion of our footprint to Putnam County is an indication of Farmers Bank’s See BANK | 3 Council hears from local resident, Memorial Run organizers By Michael Hart Special to the Sentinel POMEROY — In addition to taking action on parking and a village administrator, Pomeroy Village Council heard from the Meigs County bikers and a local resident during Monday’s meeting.

After ironing out with the council some preparation details, Lamb presented the village with $500 on behalf of the organizers, “as a way to give back to the village” following the run’s success in 2016. Lamb thanked the people of Pomeroy for hosting the event, and said the organizers were very Courtesy photos Members of the Hubert Miller Price family are pictured following Tuesday’s Hall of Fame ceremony.

In addition to the expansion, Farmers Bank also announced it had tapped veteran Putnam County banker Roy Hamilton to head up the fullservice branch, which will employ five to nine associates and offer traditional commercial and consumer banking products. “We are pleased to launch this market expansion with this new team that brings great experience in financial services and a great understanding of the Putnam County community. Roy Hamilton is very well respected in the community and we are more than excited to have him serving our customers and taking a leadership role at our newest banking facility,” Reed added. “I am extremely pleased to be a part of the Farmers Bank family,” commented Hamilton. “Farmers Bank takes great pride, not only in offering exceptional banking services, but in investing in their communities. For over 100 years Farmers Bank has been getting involved in things that are important to their communities and we look forward to being that kind of active partner here in Putnam County.” The $275 million dollar bank, which was established in 1904 and currently operates six banking centers in Ohio and West Virginia, will build a new facility over 10,000 square feet in what Farmers Bank President and CEO Reed termed a “marquee location.” Adjacent from the Woodclyffe Chase subdivision on State Route 34 at 3582 Teays Valley Road, the financial center will include a full-service bank branch with a drive-thru, ample customer parking, and will feature a 2,500 square foot community room that will be available for use by community groups and local organizations. The building will have a similar look to the one constructed a few years ago in Pomeroy. In addition, Farm- Council ers Bank has hired two banking associates who will join Hamilton in a temporary banking office at 65 Chase Drive, in Hurricane, where customers can open accounts or apply for loans at this time. “All the members of our new team have extensive banking experience and longstanding relationships with Teays Valley customers,” Hamilton said. “While we are just getting started, this strong group of experienced bankers is ready now to deliver our brand of community banking to customers.” Since being founded in Aug. 1904, Farmers Bank has grown from its location on Court Street in Pomeroy (which was later home to the The Daily Sentinel) to have locations in Meigs and Gallia counties in Ohio and Mason County, West Virginia. May 1987 marked the first expansion of the bank to include multiple branches, with the purchase of the Tuppers Plains location from Bank One. The bank once again grew in 1995, with the purchase of property on Upper River Road in Gallipolis which became its first branch outside of Meigs County. In 2003, Farmers Bank opened its branch in Mason, with the Point Pleasant branch following in 2006. The most recent expansion for Farmers bank was the new location in Pomeroy, and the conversion of the former location to be the corporate headquarters of Farmers Bank. These projects took place in 2011 and 2012. Given the two locations already in place in Mason County, Reed said, “We already have some name recognition in the state and oddly enough through our Point Pleasant office we already had customers from the Teays Valley area.” “This area has been great,” said Reed of the Meigs, Mason and Gallia county area. Reed called it a “new challenge” for the bank to expand into Putnam County. Hamilton and his team can be contacted by telephone at 304-760-0929 to set up personal appointments, with the temporary office to be fully operational in the near future. The bank anticipates the new financial center will be open by the end of the year or early 2018, depending on factors including permitting, weather and the construction timeline. ers over 800 Ohio government entities including most of Meigs County’s local governments.

No down payment is required. “Many rural Ohioans who thought they could never afford a home because they couldn’t arrange a down payment or they believed their income was too low may actually have an opportunity to become homeowners,” said Rural Development Underwriter Lacy Boney. “In the past year alone, we’ve helped more than 200 Ohio families buy a home.” The Single Family Housing Direct program offers 100 percent, fixedrate financing with a 33-year term. Many loans also qualify for payment assistance, which can drop the effective loan rate to as low as one-percent. This often results in a monthly payment lower than the average cost of a borrower’s rent. Among other requirements, applicants must have a stable source of income, an acceptable credit history and be able to successfully demonstrate repayment ability. USDA also offers a Single Family Housing Repair Loan program to eligible, very-low-income owner/ occupants who need to repair, improve, or modernize their current home. This loan is a one-percent fixed rate loan with a maximum term of 20 years. For example a repair loan of $5,000 for 20 years at one-percent would have a monthly payment of $23. Other eligibility criteria applies. The grant program can help elderly very-low-income homeowners offset the cost of removing health and safety hazards. If you are considering a USDA mortgage, you may check eligible locations and borrower income limits at the following website: http://eligibility. sc.egov.usda.gov/eligibility/welcomeAction.do.

At the end of an especially demanding day, a young man in our group was accompanying me back to our headquarters. We walked along a darkened boardwalk that conThom nected Mollohan miscelContributing laneous columnist shops and restaurants to each other with little patios attached to it at various intervals. In the daylight this was normally lined with families of tourists casually browsing through various amusements, shopping for miscellaneous what-nots and trying out of all sorts of delectable cuisines. But at night, it was dark, mostly deserted and barren of any sense of wholesomeness. Nevertheless, it was the path that we had to tread that night. As we walked along, my companion breezily chattered on about the experiences he’d had during the week and, spurred on by my occasional exclamations of interest, moved on to other matters of his life including girls in which he’d been interested, job prospects for the rest of the summer and his success as a black belt karate student. As we traversed a particularly remote portion of the walkway, someone hailed us from a shadowy corner of one of the patio areas. “Could I have a drink of water?” he called out in a voice that left me unsure if he had an accent or if his speech was somewhat slurred. Still, I slowed down just enough to see a dark form seated on one of the tourist chairs commonly found there. My younger friend and I were both carrying water bottles. I unslung my bottle from my shoulder and walked over to the man who I began to see more “Through what seems to us often to be awkward acts of service or words that fall all over themselves, God was still somehow sowing seeds of hope in a broken man’s life.” clearly as I approached. I offered him the water bottle and he took it from my hands appreciatively. He was a young man, in his early twenties I guessed though his eyes seemed abnormally sunken into his head. After he pulled the bottle from his mouth, he offered it back to me. I smiled weakly and gestured that he keep it. “It’s okay,” I replied, “you might be thirsty later.” He took another drink, wiped his mouth, and then rolled his head strangely to one side. “Hey, are you CIA?” he asked gruffly as he looked at me sideways. “Um, no,” I answered somewhat startled. His eyes narrowed a bit. “Are you KGB then?” I shook my head. “FBI?” he asked, his eyes narrowing to slits and suspicion suddenly coating his tone. Not often being in that situation, I was unsure how to respond but decided that by no means would I say anything inflammatory (I hoped). “No, no, my friend and I are here sharing God’s love with people.” He smiled and stood up, wobbling as he did so. I realized then that he was very much under the influence of some sort of drug. Still, it didn’t seem right or even wise to abruptly end the conversation and I was also wondering what God might do with the situation if I remained alert to His leading. The man, who said his name was Ramos, briefly told us how he had come to work in this town. But then he stopped and, with a wild look in his eye, asked me again, “Are you CIA?” “No,” I again replied. “They’re everywhere,” See HEALING | 5 ‘Faith and Family’ submissions being accepted Staff Report OHIO VALLEY — Does your church family have an interesting story to tell?

Daily Sentinel The great works of God They are designed to draw our attention I went to elementary school for two years with a kid by the name of T. W. Taruthers during the fifth and sixth grades. He was a tall kid for his age, lanky and lean. As I recall, his family seemed the poorest perhaps of the other families associated with our particular class. I can still image the run-down house they lived in just about a quarter of a mile off of Bringle Ferry Road. For a long time, kids in the class would not have anything to do T. W. But, our attention was suddenly drawn to him when we realized what he could do. I sat behind T. W. in the first line of chairs on the left side of the class room in Miss Hartman’s fifth grade group. One day I noticed that he was hunched over something on his desk that he was working on. When the lead in his pencil got too worn down, he got up to go to the pencil sharpener. It was then that I espied what he had been doing. He had been in the process of drawing a fantastic likeness of a horse. I approached the teacher’s desk, and said lowly, “Miss Hartman, you ought to see how ically instructive because God wants us to be ever good T. W. can draw.” As mindful of Him.

Take for example also the work of God as it involves redemption, point-specifically, the Cross of Jesus Christ. Many are drawn to God, because, in that mighty work, God did for us what we could not do for ourselves. Affection for God remains the focus of those who receive the redemption of God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and affection for God flies in the face of the egos of men, this present world system, and the devil. No wonder there is so much animosity for Christianity. I do not know what ever came of T. W. Toward the end of our sixth grad year, his family and he moved suddenly. But, the boy sure could draw.

There is a hymn that is sung, “We will Glorify,” the lyrics of which, begin as follows: “We will glorify the King of Kings, we will glorify the Lamb; we will glorify the Lord of lords, who is the great I am.” The sentiment of the song is quite appropriate. God is truly deserving of such praise. As the scriptures say, “You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created.” (Revelation 4:11; NKJV) And our Savior, Jesus Christ is likewise deserving, as we read a little further, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, and strength and honor and glory and blessing!” the glory of God, (Revelation 5:12; but to the glory NKJV) of some other.

One night, he did hear footsteps. The couple he was marrying escaped, but he was caught. He was thrown in jail and told that his punishment was death. Valentine tried to stay cheerful, and many young people came to the jail to visit him. They threw flowers and notes up to his window. They wanted him to know that they, too, believed in love. One of these young people was the daughter of the prison guard. Her father allowed her to visit him in his cell. They often sat and talked for hours. She believed he did the right thing by ignoring the Emperor and performing marriage ceremonies. On the day he was to die, Valentine left her a note thanking her for her friendship and loyalty. He signed it, “Love from your Valentine.” That note started the custom of exchanging love notes on Valentine’s Day. It was written on the day he died, February 14, 269 A.D.

The Southern boys basketball team had nine different players reach the scoring column and limited visiting Federal Hocking to single digits in each of the four quarters of play Tuesday night during a 65-23 victory in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Meigs County. The Tornadoes (9-9, 8-5 TVC Hocking) jumped out to a 16-8 edge after eight minutes of play, then used a 38-8 surge over the next two frames to all but seal the deal on the triumphant outcome. The hosts made an impressive 18-4 surge in the second canto to secure a 34-12 halftime advantage, then the Purple and Gold got six points from Dylan Smith during a 20-4 third quarter run that led to a comfortable 54-16 cushion headed into the finale. The Lancers (0-20, 0-14) put together their most competitive period down the stretch, but SHS still won the fourth by an 11-8 count that also wrapped up 42-point outcome. Southern also claimed a season sweep of FHHS after posting a 61-25 decision in Stewart in the season opener back on December 6. The Tornadoes connected on 28-of-65 field goal attempts for 43 percent, including a 4-of-17 effort from behind the arc for 24 percent. The hosts were also 5-of-9 at the free throw line for 56 percent.

Lady Pointers sweep GAHS, 60-46 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com CENTENARY, Ohio — A 26-point improvement, but there was still room for more. After dropping a 73-33 decision at South Point last Thursday, the Gallia Academy girls basketball team put up a much more competitive effort Wednesday night during a 60-46 setback in an Ohio Valley Conference girls basketball contest in Gallia County. The host Blue Angels (8-13, 3-10 OVC) never led in the contest as the Lady Pointers (12-8, 8-5) broke away from an early 3-2 edge by hitting six of their first eight shot attempts while extending that previously slim lead out to 17-2 less than five minutes into regulation. GAHS was never closer than a dozen points in the rest of the first half and trailed by at least three possessions the rest of the way. The Blue and White, however, overcame that horrific start with a pretty solid effort the rest of the way after outscoring SPHS by a 44-43 margin in the final 27 minutes of regulation. After South Point established its early 15-point cushion at the 3:21 mark, both teams went on to trade five points apiece en route to a 22-7 contest after eight minutes of play. Adrienne Jenkins capped a quick 4-1 second period run with a jumper at the 6:36 mark, allowing the Blue Angels to whittle the deficit down to 23-11. The Blue and Gold, however, responded with a 10-6 surge over the next six minutes while building their largest lead of the first half at 33-17. Jenkins added another basket with 19 seconds left to make it a 33-19 contest at the intermission. SPHS hits 5-of-7 shot attempts on eight possessions to start the third canto, while the hosts again limped out to five turnovers and zero shots over that same span. That quick 12-0 charge allowed the Lady Pointers to secure a 45-19 lead less than two minutes into the second half. The guests eventually led by as many as 27 points as a Leah Lawson basket made it a 49-22 contest with 2:21 remaining. Gallia Academy, however, reeled off 10 consecutive points to close the gap down to 49-32 headed into the finale. Hunter Copley capped a 10-3 run with a basket at the 3:25 mark to pull the deficit down to 10 points at 52-42, then Kimberly Edelmann netted a See POINTERS | 8 Gallia Academy senior Jenelle Stevens (5) releases a shot attempt over a South Point defender during the second half of Wednesday night’s OVC girls basketball contest in Centenary, Ohio.

Morrison Gymnasium, MHS senior Mersadies Markins signed her letter of intent to join the Shawnee State women’s golf team. “It means a lot, because I actually like playing golf and the opportunity to go out and meet other people while playing golf,” Markins said. “Shawnee State is actually home, because I grew up around that area. It’s nice to go back and be at home.” Markins, a two-year golfer for the Lady Marauders, fired a 128 at the Division II sectional at Hocking Hills Golf Course this past fall, a 24 stroke improvement from the previous season. “I’m excited for her, she’s actually done all of this on her own, she’s made the contacts and got out there,” Lady Marauders head coach B.J. Nicholson said. “This is her goal and she’s pushing forward toward it and you don’t get that a lot of times.” In addition to her two seasons golfing the Meigs, Markins competed in the Frank Capehart Tri-County Junior Golf League, in the summer. This will be the second season for women’s golf at Shawnee State.

Conveniently located Reference and Deposit, No Pets, No Smoking 304-675-5162 report James offered after the Cavs acquired Korver in a trade with Atlanta last month. “Korver was in a league of his own,” James said. “When he’s open, we’ve got to get it to him.” For the Pacers, it was a familiar story. They have struggled to defend Korver for years, and when he got free, Indiana’s season-best seven-game winning streak ended. C.J. Miles matched his season high with 23 points, Jeff Teague had 22 points and 14 assists and Paul George finished with 22 points, eight rebounds and six assists. The Blue and Gold netted 21-of-54 shot attempts for 37 percent, including a 6-of-19 effort from three-point territory for 32 percent. Madison Kearns and Brooklyn Badgett paced the guests with 13 points apiece, followed by Emilee Whitt with a dozen points and Lawson with seven markers. Ashley Perkey was next with six points and Kate Mundy chipped in three points. Emilee Carey, Elisha Spencer and Abbey Hannah wrapped up the winning total with two points apiece. Mundy led the Lady Pointers with a gamehigh nine rebounds. Lawson, Perkey and Maddy Khounlavong also grabbed four boards each in the win.
