With his success and experience at Windswept Stables, in the southwest area of the county, Lane said he has been able to attract horses and their riders from all over the world. He said that training horses and working with Calvary Officers in the State Police has allowed him to become a certified Natural Horseman- ship Clinician, who works to train riders as well as their horses. Whether he is inviting in newcomers and their horses to experience our abundance of beautiful farmland or traveling the world and expanding his business, Lane is one busy man who has proven that you can do whatever you are passionate about with a “little help from the Lord and a really good horse.” Having hosted clinics in states such as Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, and several New England states, Lane said that Rockcastle County is by far the most beautiful place to train. “I’ve trained horses in all the United States, including other countries.

It was the opportunity of a lifetime,” Mattingly said. “I appreciate my principal and superintendent for allow- ing me to take advantage of this opportunity.” Mattingly said that the work he is able to do in places such as Portland, Colorado and Kentucky were the same presentations he took overseas. He said the point is not to improve the way students are assessed, it’s to improve the way students learn. He was able to help educators in Hong Kong understand this concept. Though there were difficulties such as the language barrier, Mattingly said that his audience in Hong Kong was eager to learn all he had to offer. “There were some language things you had to clear up. They don’t use the term “post-test” and don’t have any idea what “blue print” means, so you had to kind of watch your language and be a little bit more patient,” Mattingly said. “If you speak too fast or present too much information you’ll confuse them. It has nothing to do with intelligence, it’s just the language barrier.” Mattingly went on to say that he believes he made an impact on the educators he encountered during the course Mt.

After reporting back to the Kentucky Conference, the Methodist Women agreed to invest $20,000 in endowment if London would match the amount. In two short years London raised the necessary money and 20.5 acres were purchased from the Calloway family on a hill overlooking London for the sum of $2,000. On the morning of June 23, 1896, through the collaborative efforts of Belle Bennett, the Methodist Women, and the township of London, Sue Bennett Memorial School was dedicated. Miss Belle placed a box of Miss Sue's momentos in the cornerstone of the administration building. Susan Ann Bennett's dream of a school was now a reality. (Cont. to B8) Pg.

B8 • Mount Vernon Signal • Thursday, September 19, 2013 DAR promotes Constitution Week September 17th begins the national celebration of Con- stitution Week. The weeklong commemoration of America’s most important document is one of our country’s least known official observances. Our Constitution stands as a testament to the tenacity of Americans throughout history to maintain their liberties and freedom, and to ensure those inalienable rights to every American. The tradition of celebrating the Constitution was started many years ago by the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion (DAR). In 1955, the Daughters petitioned Congress to set aside September 17-23 annually to be dedicated for the observance of Constitution Week. The resolution was later adopted by the U.S. Congress and signed into Public Law #915 on August 2, 1956 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The aims of the celebration are to (1) empha- size citizens’ responsibilities for protecting and defending the Constitution, preserving it for posterity; (2) inform the people that the Constitution is the basis for America’s great heritage and the foundation for our way of life; and (3) encourage the study of the historical events which led to the framing of the Constitution in September 1787.

An injured four month old pig was rescued Tuesday afternoon from the busy roadway of I-75 near the 59 exit in Mt. Vernon. Deputy Sheriff Matt Bryant responded to a call to 911 about a pig allegedly falling off a truck and hitting the blacktop and then bouncing into the median. When Brynt arrived, he noticed the pig didnt seem to be in pain but had a broken leg. Justice for Abused Animals, an animal rescue organization from Corbin, learned about the injured pig and sent represenatives to pick up the animal. While waiting on JFAA representatives to arrive, Bryant researched the nearest pig rescue facility and discovered The Pig Preserve in Jamestown, Tennessee. JFAA transported the pig named “Lucky” to The Pig Perserve from where they took “Lucky” to the University of Tennessee Hospital for animals. UT veternarians say Lucky has a broken left elbow and that they are giving him pain medicine but that he is eating and drinking. You can follow Lucky’s progress on JFAA Facebook website at https://www.facebook.com/ justiceforabusedanimals.

Owens used old yearbooks and articles and photos from The Signal and from other newspa- pers in the state. Local photographer Jeanetta McLemore Begley designed the front and back covers of the book and the chapter covers. Pg. A10 • Mount Vernon Signal • Thursday, September 26, 2013

Blast From The Past... One of this week’s Blast From the Past comes from Bobbie Ann Durham who taught at Sowder School in 1958-59. This was Ms. Durham’s, who was 19 at the time, second school to teach. She was able to identify all the children in the photo and said they “were the sweetest and best children in the world. I’ll always cherish the time I spent with them.” In the photo are, front row, from left: Floyd Bradley, Garner Mink, Gorden Mink, Jerry Moore, Barbara Wheat and Lavania Wheat. Second row: John Fletcher, Carter Mink, Bob Bradley, Joann Moore, Willene Mink and Wathalene, holding Ms. Durham’s baby (Sherry Lynn Durham, 9 months old).
