Facebook: The socialmedia website that oftenreceives negative press.

But don’t tell that to thefamily of 17 year-oldDargan Malpass who wentmissing the day of the LorisBog-Off Festival, Oct. 15.

“It was definitely theinteraction on Facebookthat lead to information asto where Dargan was, andultimately where we wereable to go and pick her upand bring her home,” saidher mother, Christy Cook.

Cook had of course con-tacted the authorities andgave them as much infor-mation she could so theycould begin their investiga-tion.

But Cook just didn’t stop

there.The family immediately

began printing and distrib-uting fliers and talking withlocal media to get the wordout about their missingchild.

Cook went to the socialnetworking sites as anotheroutlet to find her daughter,and it paid off.

Through the pleas andinformation Cook postedon the popular networkingsite, and the help of anotherlittle known website calledWebsleuths, bits and piecesof information began to fil-ter back to Cook’s Facebookpage.

Cook was to discover atrail that began inKingstree, to Fayetteville,Ga., and ended up in thesmall town of Salem back inSouth Carolina.

With the help of people inthe area, Cook found whereher daughter was and con-tacted her Saturday, Oct. 22.She made arrangements topick her up around 3 a.m.the following Sunday morn-ing.

“It was all about a guypromising a young girl thatit would be okay, that hewould take care of her,” saidCook.

“Once the pressure wason and the money ran out,they soon found themselveswithout food for a couple ofdays. Thank God for theprayers, and all the peoplethat provided us with infor-mation that ultimately ledto bringing our daughterhome.”

Cook said her daughter isback in school, doing well,and is gradually sharing her

experience with her family.An A-B student at the

Academy of Technology andAcademics in the pre-medprogram, Malpass has a

bright future ahead of her,thanks to her family, herfriends, and the technologyof Facebook that helpedturn possible tragedy into a

The arrival of Dr. BenMassey to the city of Lorisand the staff of CarolinaDental Care could besummed up as one of divineintervention, and a longjourney.

Before joining the staff ofthe local dental office ownedby Dr. Wes Teal, the youngMassey had other ideasabout what his career pathwas to be. His roundaboutway into a medical career,and a life of serving othersstarted off quite differently.

Massey’s untraditionalroute to the healthcare fieldbegan at the University ofSouth Carolina where hehad a business major forfour years, planning to havea career in the businessworld. And that he did, quite

successfully, with a world-wide company known asAccenture.

Accenture is a global man-agement consulting, tech-nology service and out-sourcing company, withabout 236,000 people serv-ing clients in more than 120countries.

Massey spent 12 years inthat company, but some-thing seemed to be missingin Massey’s life.

“It was a great job but itwasn’t fulfilling,” saidMassey. “I have always want-ed to help others, especiallyin the healthcare field, andsince my Dad and my broth-er were both dentists, I hadan idea of what it was like.

“I felt that maybe den-tistry was what I was calledto do.”

So Massey switched gears,and enrolled at the Medical

University of SouthCarolina’s dental program,graduating in 2010.

He did his residency at theUniversity of Florida in theSt. Petersburg, Fla. area, andgot his advanced educationin general dentistry residen-cy in June 2011.

It was while at UF, and as aresult of his faith thatMassey first met the Tealsand learned about their pas-sion for missions, a passionMassey shares.

Massey had been travelingsince 2007 to undevelopedcountries, helping providedental care, while stillattending school.

The missions workinvolved everything fromcleanings, fluoride treat-ments, restorative fillingsand even extractions. Even

Dr. Ben Massey joins Carolina Dental Care staff

The two families bonded thanks to theircommon interests in serving others and knowledge in thefield of dentistry. Massey’s knowledge and training in latesttechnologies in dental implantation make him a welcomeaddition to Carolina Dental Care.

The event, which begins at8:30 a.m. and runs until 2p.m., includes free breakfastand lunch, speeches, blue-

grass music and militaryequipment for folks to climbin and examine.

Saturday’s event isdesigned to honor allbranches of the military andwill include the raising of aflag from each branch of themilitary.

One sad point of thisyear’s ceremony will be theabsence of Mike Fitch, whohas raised the Army flag forthe past several years. The92-year-old war hero diedonly a few weeks ago.

The Rev. Paul Thompkinswill take over the Army slotthis year. Also, Fogner said,Howard Martin who hasraised the Coast Guard flagin previous years won’t beable to participate this year.

The Conway Naval JROTCwill serve as the color guard.

The helicopters areexpected to land in the park-ing lot of the Horry CountyGovernment & JusticeCenter around 8:30 a.m. orshortly after.

Fogner says it takes aHerculean community effortto coordinate the day’s activ-

ities. He is especially gratefulto Chick-fil-A of Conway,Hardee’s of Conway,McDonald’s of Conway andBojangles’ on S.C. 544,which are all donating bis-cuits, and Conway Rental,which is furnishing a largetent so the ceremony can goon rain or shine.

J&J Café will donate cof-fee, Coastal Ice is providingice, Gary’s Pumping Servicewill tend to the portable toi-lets and Watson’s FuneralHome is donating softdrinks.

Ronald Singleton &Friends will have theirinstruments humming fromabout 9 a.m. – noon.Singleton said Donald Smithwith Lucky Dog Productionsalways provides a publicaddress system for the band.

Singleton said he’ll have avocalist, backed up by a gui-tar, mandolin, bass anddabro. He’ll handle the banjomusic himself.

1st Sgt. Ronnie Elvisjoined the U.S. Army in1986, shortly after his highschool graduation. He com-pleted his basic training inthe U.S. Army InfantryTraining and AirborneSchool at Ft. Benning, Ga.

Three years later he gradu-ated from the U.S. ArmyRanger School and para-chuted into Panama just twomonths later as part ofOperation Just Cause.

He is a trained sniper, whoserved with the 82ndAirborne Division at Ft.Bragg.

After his active duty hejoined the S.C. ArmyNational Guard in Mullins,completed his college degreeat the University of SouthCarolina and joined theNational Guard in Conwaywhere he is the area NCOICfor coastal South Carolina.

In the year 2000, theCedar Branch MissionaryBaptist Church donatedland in which to have aChildren’s Center construct-ed. Upon completion ofthe facility SOS began oper-ations of an After School

Program for four years. InAugust of 2005, the church’spastor led the congregationto take up the challenge ofoperating the After SchoolProgram. With emphaseson education, the Centercurrently has approximately45 children in attendancefive days a week for aca-demic tutoring and home-work assistance. Both paidand volunteer workers con-tinue to provide a safe andoutstanding nurturing envi-ronment that has proven tomanifest increased academ-ic improvements in theattendee’s school perform-ance. In addition, summerprograms of reading, math-ematics and arts & craftsprovide an environment ofre-enforced learning withfun.

With special thanks toUnited Way, Shared Careand Wake StoneCorporation, resources weremade available to assistwith the Center’s daily oper-ations, healthcare servicesand the creation of a state-of-the-art computer lab. In2006, the opportunity totake part in The First Tee of

Myrtle Beach was intro-duced and gladly accepted.Currently, eighteen to twen-ty-five eagerly excited chil-dren and teens share in thisgreat opportunity of expo-sure, which is hosted at thecommunity’s neighboringgolf course of Crown Park.In 2008 the center contin-ues to climb the ladder ofopportunities with theimplementation of commu-nity healthcare services ini-tiative sponsored byJohnson & Johnson andShared Care and housed atthe Community Center. Inconclusion, Wake StoneCorporation donatedapproximately $10,000worth of Dell desktops andlaptops towards theenhancement of theCenter’s technology lab.The purpose of the lab is toprovide adequate computerand Internet access to chil-dren to enhance their aca-demic achievements andoffer computer usage class-es for all members of thecommunity.

minor root canals were per-formed.

It was in 2008, during amission trip to Quito,Ecuador, that Massey metWes and Hazel Teal, andothers, performing dentalservices for the needyinhabitants of the area.

“It was through a mutualfriend, Bill Sasser, a localperodontist who heads upmission trips all around theworld who knew I was look-ing for a job, who intro-duced me to the Teals,” saidMassey.

“I really got to know thekind of people the Tealswere, and of their love ofthe Lord.”

The relationship grew,and in July of this year

Massey joined the staff ofCarolina Dental Care. He isan integral part of the busi-ness as his advanced train-ing in dental implantationand procedures have addeda new dimension to thelocal practice.

Massey also hasadvanced training inendodontics, or root canalprocedures.

“Dr. Teal and I have simi-lar training and our practicephilosophies line up welltogether,” said Massey. “Iwill be continuing to learnfrom Dr. Teal, as he hassuch a manner with hispatients and works so wellwith them. “We both look atour practice as a calling,and try to serve the Lordthrough what we do”

Massey and his wifeEmily have been married six

and half years and are theproud parents of their 20-month old son, Carl. Thefamily lives in Myrtle Beach,where Emily, a physician’sassistant, is now a stay-at-home mom.

“We felt so comfortablecoming here, and it just feltso natural to start [mycareer] here,” said Massey.

Americans play Santa Clause for our PresidentIlove Christmas and reallyenjoy giving to others. Ilove to see the expres-

sions on the faces of thosewho receive something theyreally wanted. I also don’tmind sacrificing a little ofmy hard earned money tomake somebody happy.What I do mind is someoneusing my money to playSanta Claus without mypermission to give a giftand take the credit for it.Such is the case of our

brilliant state departmentofficials, the same geniuseswho, according to hearingsbefore the HouseCommittee on ArmedServices in 1984, paid $750for one toilet seat while atour neighborhood hard-ware store, screwdrivers,wrenches and the like sellfor less than $13, and manyunder $5. The defense con-

tractorssold nonefor lessthan $225(a screw-driver,retailingfor under$3), andtheirhighestprice was$1,150 (awrench,retailprice$4.88).The totalretail

price for the 21 items was$92.44 but from the con-tractors, it was $10,168.00.Can you imagine the costnow, due to inflation?So it’s no surprise, along

with the ego of our currentpresident, that the State

Department has boughtmore than $70,000 worth ofbooks authored byPresident Obama, sendingout copies as Christmasgratuities and stocking “keylibraries” around the worldwith “Dreams From MyFather” more than a decadeafter its release.A shocking report in the

Washington Post went on totell about even more pur-chases of the President’sworks, from which he alsoreceives royalties, madewith our tax dollars anddespite the country’s eco-nomic standing.The U.S. Embassy in

Egypt, for instance, spent$28,636 in August 2009 forcopies of Mr. Obama’s best-selling 1995 memoir. Sixweeks earlier, the embassyhad placed another orderfor the same book for more

than $9,000, federal pur-chasing records show. About the same time,

halfway around the world,the U.S. Embassy in SouthKorea had the same idea,and spent more than $6,000for copies of “Dreams FromMy Father.”One month later, the U.S.

Embassy in Jakarta,Indonesia, spent more than$3,800 for hardcover copiesof the Indonesian version ofMr. Obama’s “The Audacityof Hope,” records show.A review of the expendi-

tures in a federal databasedid not reveal any examplesof State Department pur-chases of books by formerpresidents George W. Bushor Bill Clinton. The purchases of Mr.

Obama’s literary workmostly, but not always, tookplace in the months after

Mr. Obama captured theWhite House.Now I don’t know about

you, but I just don’t graspwhy you and I shouldfinance Obama Claus andthe distribution of a book,as a gift in the Americanpeople’s names that directlybenefits the President him-self. Aren’t we paying himenough? Won’t we continue to pay

him four times the salary ofthe average American work-er when he no longer worksfor us? After all, he only made

$1.7 million dollars lastyear. Let him wrap themand send them out himself.Why should we pay for it?So wake up people, get

concerned about where ourmoney is going before theWhite House moves to theNorth Pole…

Buying a newplanner takessome planning

Not even I could under-stand how it couldtake me so long to

buy a blank book.Well, not actually blank,

just void of personal entriesas yet.I was choosing a new year-

ly planner, and there wereumpteenoptions.I’d

already nar-rowed itdown to notpaper. Whydo theyeven sellpaper plan-ners? Itwould becoffee-stained infour daysand torn ina week. Heavy

cardboard was just a trick ofthe devil, soon to be fadedinstead of stained andrubbed raw instead of torn.“Secure magnetic flap clo-

sure” was looking good, andit was wipe-clean, no-ripvinyl.But, the boxes designated

for each day were dividedinto 60-minute increments.If I could slice my life up intochunks that size, I wouldn’tneed a planner. All I’d need isan alarm clock. The planners with bigger

boxes divided into smallerincrements had an attachedribbon that served as a book-mark. That didn’t move mebecause it would negate mypaper clip obsession.But the “binding lies flat

for ease of use” part did. Icould write notes to selfwhile leaning it against thesteering wheel at red lights.The biggest problem was

the design on the cover.Cutesy cats in party hats

saying perky things aboutevery day being a good onecould get annoying by thesecond week.Sophisticated stripes in

subdued colors could take allthe fun out of planning any-thing.And paisley always remind -

ed me of amoebas on acid.I settled for the big boxes

with short time incrementscovered in a non-descriptfleur de lis pattern.Looking at this 16-month

planner, I seriously won-dered what I’d do with it if Ihated it in five months. Orthree weeks.What if life was hard and I

wished for cutesy cats? What if I longed for the

dignity of sophisticatedstripes?How, I wondered, did 18-

year-olds make decisionsabout what careers theywanted to be working in 20years down the road?Oh yeah, I reminded

myself, they’re young. Theyknow everything.

Loris Library is kid friendly and always tries to keepthe younger generation interested in reading. The dif-ferent reading programs make them successful.BJ Hopper was a reading program when I was in

elementary school, some 20-25 years ago, and theystill exist.It has never been about the number of books that

are checked out or even the amount of kids that par-ticipate in the programs. It has always been aboutteaching children about the joys of reading andteaching them that reading can open many doors forthem now as well as in the future. They also try toinform the children that reading doesn’t have to befor schoolwork, it can be relaxing and fun.As we know, with all contest there are rewards,

however, most children don’t realize the true rewarduntil they are older.Nevertheless, the library staff usually has some

prizes for reading so many books or different proj-ects. This year was no different, but with the help of“The Friends of the Library” there are resources to domore.Last week the library planned to have a live show of

“The Wizard of Oz,” but when Dorothy had to returnto Kansas unexpectedly, many were left wondering ifthe library staff would cancel the gathering.The staff answered with a big “NO.” The gathering

would still take place and as usual they did not disap-point anyone in attendance.They brought in Renzi Norris, a Magician who daz-

zled the crowd with his many magic tricks. Norriskept all the children entertained with his magic thatwas full of audience participation. He performedeverything from illusions to card tricks, but theyouthful crowd enjoyed the “Whizinator” the most.The “Whizinator” is designed to make old dirty,smelly shoes like new again.Things didn’t seem to go as planned for one audi-

ence participant that donated a shoe, but in the endall was well and the children loved it.Make another mark in the book for a job well done

for the Loris Library staff and “The Friends of theLibrary.”

Renzi Norris, a Magician, dazzled the crowd. Norris kept allthe children entertained with his magic tricks.

A pumpkin decorating contest was held at the Loris Libraryduring the magic show recently.

Does not God’s Word tellus that through Him allthings are possible? It saysALL, not just some, not justa chosen few, but all. Everydream we have, every hope,every possible idea that ourhuman mind can conceive,is possible. Then what isstopping us as believersfrom accomplishing thetask of changing lives andchanging the world aroundus?The answer lies in our

lack of understandingabout the limitless power ofour God. All that is holdingus back is that we thinkwithin our limitations, ourfish bowl. All we see iswhere we are, where welive, what our financial sta-tus and our knowledge willlet us see. We fail to see out-side of the box of ourhuman existence. We let ourfaith be limited.The great thing is that

God is outside the box. Hispower is unlimited. Thatpower to take small ideasand make them great is Histo give to us. The size of our faith and

our vision determine thesize of the outcome of ourideas.To put all this in perspec-

tive, arecentdevotionalI read tolda storyabout oneof Dr.RobertSchuller’shobbies ofraising koifish. Koifish is atropicalfish and isa naturalmutationspecies ofthe com-

mon fresh water carp, andmainly from Japan. Theyrange in size from two inch-es to sometimes three feetlong depending on theirenvironment. Those fishraised in small tanks onlygrow two or three inches. Ina small pond some grow to10 or more inches. But in alarge lake they often grow toup to three feet long. Thesize of pond determines thesize of the fish, and so it iswith the ideas in the smallconfines of little thinkingminds.The size and depth of our

faith measures the scope ofour ideas. The disciples got

their first taste of the limit-less power of God in Luke 5when their fishing yieldednothing, and had no ideaand little faith about whatwas to come.“When He had finished

speaking, He said to Simon,“Put out into the deepwater and let down yournets for a catch.” Simonanswered and said, “Master,we worked hard all nightand caught nothing, but Iwill do as You say and letdown the nets.” When theyhad done this, theyenclosed a great quantity offish, and their nets began tobreak.”Simon did as Jesus said

and saw firsthand thepower that God has overevery circumstance. In hismind it was impossible, justas we think today, despiteall the miracles we haveseen.Many an idea was first

thought impossible butactions had to be taken bythose with enough faith andvision to bring them to real-ity. We would never have had

electricity withoutBenjamin Franklin, nor thelights we use today withoutEdison’s drive and vision.

The telegraph, the sewingmachine and even the rail-road were scoffed at by themajority. It was once believed if

you traveled more than 30mph, your blood wouldstop circulating. Where would we have

been without the vision ofSteve Jobs and Bill Gates? Where would we be with-

out visionary doctors andscientists responsible formedical discoveries?We have at our disposal

as believers an endless sup-ply of love and power toaccomplish great things.All God asks of us is to

step out in faith and trust inHim with obedient heartsand watch Him show us Hislimitless power over everywant, need and goal in ourlives.The time is now for us to

step up, step out, and stepin to the limitless power ofGod at our disposal. We canand will change lives thatchange the world when welive on the edge and ledgeof life with the Father as ourdaily guide.May we stop limiting our

limitless God and step outof the box to trust Himcompletely.

You cannot serveGod and moneyBY KEN LEEFOR THE LORIS SCENE

Serving God performs good works, proclaims Hisword, and administers gifts of the Holy Spirit towards allpeople, but serving a desire for money only leads tomore work, anxiety, and disappointment. Therefore, God should be our master in life and not

money, and Jesus says all these things shall be addedunto us: that God will supply our provisions for daily liv-ing and the money we need to purchase things as nec-essary – when we first seek the kingdom of God and Hisrighteousness. (Matthew 6:26-33) Consider beginning each day with a righteous heart

and mind towards serving God, for He is a rewarder tothose that believe in Him. (Hebrews 11:6) Jesus advises us to lay not up for ourselves treasures

on earth but in heaven, where moth nor rust corrupts,and thieves do not steal: for where our treasure is, therewill our heart be also. (Matthew 6:19-21)

Limiting God produces limited results

Nov. 4, 1981: Lions Outgun Baptist HillThe Loris Lions celebrated homecoming Friday night by

rolling up their biggest offensive totals of the season: 44points and 403 total yards. It came on a night when the Lionsdefense was giving up its most points and yards of the season:25 points and 304 yards. Whatever, the effort was goodenough to keep Coach Allen McNeills’s Lions undefeated at 8-0-1 with only one game remaining in the regular season. “Weare very happy that the game is over.” Coach Allen McNeillsaid. “It didn’t mean anything. Now we can get on with thebusiness at hand.” “Baptist Hill is not very good, and that’sexactly how we played. Defensively their quarterback ranaround too much, and we didn’t have an intelligent passrush,” McNeill said. “I’m not worried at all about our defense,”he said. “Anytime they real a real play, we stopped them. Thedefensive lapses we had Friday night will not happen in apressure situation.” The Lions wasted little time striking asthey took the opening kickoff and marched 63 yards in fiveplays to paydirt. Charlie Grate scored on a six-yard burst atthe 9:03 mark in the first quarter. The score was set up by a32-yard pass from Todd Heniford to Greg Batton who wrestledthe ball from a Bobcat defender after an apparent intercep-tion.

touchdown before the half,again a run from Hilton.The Lions led 20-0. The Blue Jackets led

Marion, Mullins, andWaccamaw at the half andCoach Jamie Snider wasvery focused on this factwhen preparing for Aynor.“That was one of my con-

cerns but we played a goodfirst half,” said Snider. The coach went on to say

that he was not as pleasedwith his team’s second halfperformance but the teamdid manage a shut-out. The final two periods

were a defensive battle.Both teams were unable toscore. The Loris defensemade three goal-line standsto keep the Blue Jacketsscoreless. The win over Aynor

sealed a second placeregion finish for the Lionswith a 9-1 overall recordand a 4-1 conference finish. The Lions will now begin

preparing for what theyassume they can expectfrom Timberland. The teamis big and fast. They are arunning team, they line-upsimilar to North MyrtleBeach. Timberland’s biggeststrength is its defense. Coach Snider said that he

what they needed to do thisseason to get us to thispoint. I want them tounderstand that we are nowstarting a new season.Because we have a bye inweek one, every team thatwe will face will be good,”said Snider.

For Loris High School’s Celina Po, suc-cessful role models to follow are not too farfrom home. In fact, that is where she findsthem in her parents, Dr. Christopher Po, alocal internist and nephrologist and hiswife, Maria.No wonder the younger Po chose to also

enter the medical field, with career aspira-tions to become a registered pharmacist. Po is set to attend Coastal Carolina

College next fall, and if her abilities andactivities from Loris High follow her to col-lege, she will be one busy young lady.Po excels in her academics and in her

music, and not without recognition.On the academic side, Po is a member in

good standing of the LHS National HonorSociety, the LHS National Art HonorsSociety and LHS’s prestigious AcademicOlympic team.On the musical side of the coin, Po has

been a member of the LHS Marching Lionsband and has been named to the all-countyband this year. Po plays guitar, piano, keyboards, mallets,

and the violin, which she lists as her hob-bies, along with playing tennis, crocheting,and a love of reading books.Po’s pride in her hometown was summed

up in these words:“Loris has shaped me into what I am

right now,” said Po. “I have, over the years,attended Loris schools, mingled with heart-warming people, and have seen forms ofsmall town tradition which has given methe opportunity to be come a better per-son.”One thing is for sure, with all these tal-

ents and her academic standing and drive,Po will definite rise to the level of successshe desires.
