Sheriff, officers, reserves sporting
new style professional uniforms
> March set for jail groundbreaking
New uniforms are being sported by members of the
Noble County Sheriff's Department personnel.
Undersheriff Brian Thomas is shown wearing his new
uniform which is brown and tan in color.
The pants, lighter in weight than the Wrangler jeans
they've been wearing, have a stripe down the side of the
leg to distinguish them as uniform pants.
They wash and dry well and don’t fade, according to
Undersheriff Thomas. “To keep the jeans we were wear-
ing looking sharp, they had to be taken to the cleaners,
starched and replaced about every six months," said Tho-
mas. "These new uniforms just look sharper and more
professional.”
Thomas said that the jeans, although county issued, were
worn even as an "off duty” pant. He related that the
stripe down the side of the leg to distinguish a pant as a
uniform was started in England in the late 1800s or early
1900s.
Sheriff Charlie Hanger is still waiting for his new uni-
form. Although they were measured for the uniforms,
when his came in, the pants did not fit. “I don't always
wear a uniform,” said Sheriff Hanger, “But I believe the
uniform helps identify an officer, especially if you have
to make an arrest. Most local area people know who we
are, but those traveling through town don't and you just
don't know when you might have to make an arrest.”
The Sheriff's Reserve officers also will be wearing the
new uniform.
Thomas said the Reserves have also been approved for
a NODA grant and will be receiving new hand-held ra-
dios the first part of the new year.
When asked about the progress of the new jail. Sheriff
Hanger said the jail is still in the final design stages. The
best estimate given him predicted they will break ground
for the new jail in March.
Hagner said there has been some soil testing on the new
jail site for the GEO-thermal system, which will be used
to heat and cool the new facility. The construction man-
ager contracted the job through GeoLogic, based in Okla-
homa City, which is run by Michael Albertson, a Perry
man. son of Phil and Mona Albertson. “GeoLogic spe-
cializes in this type of heat and air," said Hanger.
“We’re really looking forward to getting started on the
new jail," said Hanger. “I believe the new central 911
emergency dispatch response center is going to be im-
portant to our city and county residents when it comes to

Local Wal-Mart 2005 donations total more than $20,000
Perry Wal-Mart manager Paul Green said Wal-Mart
focuses on contributing to the well-being of the
community through grants and donations.
Last year Perry Wal-Mart donated more than $20,000
to the various organizations within the community, he
said.
Green said this total does not reflect the countless
smaller donations they make to different groups on a
daily basis.
“This is all money that went straight to the community.”
he said. “We have made donations to things like Relay
for Life, as well as donations to literacy programs and
countless local organizations. Some groups seek us out
and there are some we seek out to make a donation.”
Green said the Wal-Mart corporate offices give each
store a budget for yearly donations and matching grant
funds. “We have several groups that work with us on
matching grants,” he said. “A lot of times when you see
bake sales and other fund-raisers outside the store, that is
what they are working on. We match what they raise."
Green said the Perry Wal-Mart is just one of many Okla-
homa Wal-Mart stores that work to give back to the com-
munity.
According to walmartfacts.com, in 2004 Wal-Mart
Stores and Sam’s Club gave $3,972,086 to local
causes and organizations in the communities they
serve in Oklahoma.
In addition, many charities and organizations re-
ceived in-kind donations and additional funds raised
through stores, clubs and distribution centers in the
amount of $2,981,953, for a grant total of $6,954,093
contributed through Wal-Mart across the state.
Last year cash contributions through Wal-Mart
stores, Inc., and the Wal-Mart and Sam's Club Foun-
dation exceeded $170 million and assisted more than
100,000 organizations nationwide.
