Tips to survive high gas prices

he good news is that gaso- line prices are not expected Tto skyrocket this summer. The bad news is that gasoline prices are still around $3.50 a gal- lon, which is hardly inexpensive. In fact, the government recently forecasted an average of $3.79 a gallon for the summer driving sea- son. Nearly $4 a gallon is actually being touted as good news. When gas prices drop, they usually drop pennies at a time and yet it seems that consumers are expected to rejoice at the meager savings.

Rotary scholarship recipients Gerald Nutt seeks Re-election For a little background on my personal life, I moved to Dallas after high school and worked as a journeyman carpenter. In 1972 I moved back to Ar- kansas and established a truss company. I started the business on June 26, 1977 in the old Mineral Springs Cotton Gin under the name of Nutt Truss Company. Due to some teasing (people began calling it "Nut-Truss"), the name was changed to Southern Pine Framing. Also, about that time, I built a new building and moved to a location outside the city limits of Mineral Springs. During the next 31 years a reputable company was built on produc- ing quality trusses. I sold Southern Pine in 2008 due to health problems. I have 3 daughters and 6 grandchildren. My church affiliation is with a world- wide ministry founded by Dr. Gene Scott. I watch this program on K-U-Dish and also on a computer website. Dr. Scott passed away in 2005. Pastor Me- lissa Scott continued the ministry. This is not an evangelistic organization, but rather a teaching ministry from the Bible in the original languages of Hebrew and Greek. No donations, offerings are given for the value of the teaching, a principal of Matthew 26:7-13. In 1987, Clyde Green was elected CECIL HARRIS | Nashville News as Howard County Judge and asked me to serve as a Justice of the Peace. A Julia Pope, Johnathan Nguyen and Kera Hinds are proud to be the recipients of a $500 JP is elected to "keep the peace" and is a member of a countywide legislative scholarship provided by the local Rotary Club. body called the Quorum Court. The responsibilities of a JP are: passing the budget, creating new ordinances, and working with other elected officials. I was elected and on January 1st of 1987 I took the following oath. "I, Gerald Nutt, do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United www.swarkansasnews.com States and the Constitution of the State of Arkansas, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of the office of Justice of the Peace, upon which I am now about to enter." On September 17,2007 a resolution under old busi- ness was discussed, which had to do with animal identification tagging. I stated my views regarding this matter and made a motion. No one seconded this motion so it died. I then stated there was nothing wrong with taking a You’re Invited to a stand, but there was something wrong with not making a stand and taking a neutral stand was not the thing to do. I said taking a stand would be letting the legislature know our constitutional rights. In June 2009, the same thing happened again when no one seconded my motion to make a donation to the Congregational Acapella Soil Conservation Office. Before the next meeting I asked Judge Smith if I could make a statement. After the opening prayer and pledge of allegiance, Judge Smith said I had a statement to make to the Court. I said I was not be- ing condescending or judgmental as I myself had been guilty in the past. I Gospel Singing stated "Mr. Turner opens with prayer, so we know God. We pledge allegiance to the lag. The last five words are Liberty and Justice for all." I than asked if anyone knew the meaning of virtue. There were no comments, so I stated that the meaning of virtue is moral goodness, which is taken from Philippi- Saturday, May 19 ans 4:8. I then stated I wished the members of the court would remember to put virtue in all their votes. As I stated back in 2007, "there is nothing wrong with taking a stand, but there is something wrong with not making a stand." 6:29 p.m. Washington DC has basically done away with the Constitution because too many people don't take a stand." I will make a stand to uphold the oath I took when I became a Justice of the Peace and I will defend the Constitution of @ Lockesburg the United States and the Constitution of the State of Arkansas. These two examples should demonstrate my past actions. I am willing to take a stand on my beliefs no matter what. I keep my oath to preserve, protect and defend the Church of Christ Constitution and encourage other JPs to do the same and to vote with virtue. It is clear where I stand and what I will do. 248 Provo Rd. I would appreciate your vote for J.P. of the District 8
