HOUSTON HOME JOURNAL LOST Frompage iA just to be sure, others were dispersed in all directions, some to interview neighbors, who were already coming out to help, some to search the area. The Houston County Sheriffs Office and the EMS were both called for back up, and the Georgia State Patrol arrived with a helicopter. Tikitia called her husband who was on 1-75, on his way home. A kind neigh bor came and invited 8-year old Areyhon to her home to get her out of the middle of what was essentially a very frightening situation. Meantime, Malik Glover was on the move, oblivious to all the excitement. wNBKr .*&&& I sss?' ?*m js ' I , * 11 “ ,i Malik and Areyhon Glover play with the family dog, and guardian angel, Alice. PLAN From page iA state level. Another concern expressed by the organization, and sup ported by the Periy vote, is that revenues generated by the sales tax, which would be added to services as well as merchandise, would be redistributed to close the gap between more affluent counties and poorer coun ties, creating “donor” coun ties and “donee” counties. GMA has characterized Richardson’s plan as “tax shift, not tax reform,” and claims that the plan, if approved by the voters, would “likely be a tax increase for average Georgians, partic ularly the elderly who, in many communities, receive property tax breaks.” COSEY From page iA place in Georgia where etha nol fuel is sold to the public. Davis Cosey of Davis Oil Company was recognized as a Pioneer in Biofuels Thursday by Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Tommy Irvin, who praised Cosey and the company for leading the way. “Davis was the first com pany in Georgia to offer E -85 to the public,” said Irvin. “They have been selling biodiesel and ethanol-blend ed gas such as E-85 and E-10 and have had no problems meeting Georgia state stan dards for quality. It is impor tant to recognize leaders like Davis Oil that are innovative and deliver the quality that Georgia motorists expect and deserve.” Cosey in turn recognized the work of the Clean Cities Coalition, and the efforts of Mark Hamby of Hamby Chevrolet in Perry. Mark Hamby said that his dealer ship is selling 18 different vehicles that offer flex-fuel systems. He said this basi cally means that you can mix the ethanol fuel with tradi tional fuel if necessary. The ethanol being sold at Davis Company’s two Fillers locations is being made from the by-products of a brewery. The E-85 pumps are at the new Fillers on Houston Lake Road at Ga. 127, and the Fillers on Marshallville Road near 1-75.

Try to take his pic ture, and he’s likely to stand on his head on the sofa or give you his best imitation of Spiderman. It’s Alice, the dog, who’s on the shy and skittery side. She was an aban doned puppy at one point and the Glovers adopted her at Pet Smart a month ago. She’s just 1-year-old now, and a bit afraid of strangers, quick to back away and bark R 1* jfltk *, j R* "l* V*l| iiiwimm i 88 HpPP ?|| flUt Ml HI IB Q fH la afeXy k J gg II 1 I m m jßSlili: -w m SBrJIi P \ mmmT A ■■ ggßr Jp-fe M/ f' Mp- I 1 ffilffllllP "PP •& B mk r t * Jr * -IS y/l I j fttp**! tB j; _g;l IHf y." |Rr Jottflß, lI M y££fj P* /y g yRRR i llj| AN AMAZING DEAL ON BLAZING-FAST INTERNET. $4A99 I PER MONTH FOR 12 MONTHS WITH .

All the same, she knows her job. It’s clear enough that Malik opened the door, and that Alice not only went with him when he wandered away, but stayed right beside him. When Perry Police officers Jason Jones and Quridsha Gilliam found Malik a quar ter-mile from home in a wooded area it was because they had followed the sound of Alice’s barking, which apparently was set off by the helicopter just above the woods.

The little boy had a few scratches and some stickers in his feet, and that was all. The Glovers took Malik to the Perry Hospital Emergency room just to be completely sure he was okay. Since then, they’ve child proofed every door in the house, and there are some safety lessons other parents of rambunctious toddlers might want to note. They changed the door knobs from a newer kind that opens with a simple pushing down effort, to the old-fashioned round kind, and added chain locks above the doorknobs on each door leading to the outdoors.

The front doorknob now has a plastic cover too big for a little hand to grip and the chain lock and wind chimes that make a racket anytime the door is opened. “I am so safety-conscious always,” Malik’s mom says, “I teach children about stay ing safe. I never thought this could happen to me.” Meantime, though, she’s learned that she’s got good neighbors all around her, that Perry law enforcement is on the job, and that the lean and lanky black setter who’s the newest member of the family is one special dog, “I think maybe she’s an angel,” Tikitia Glover says. : in i. , W® i could bP j Vi IN YOUR HOME!
