Incinerator used to dispose of old prescriptions nearing operation

By Eric Engel eengel@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — The incinerator at the Princeton Police Station, which will be used to safely eliminate expired and unused prescription drugs, is almost ready for use.

Dawn Conerton, director of Community Partners Against Substance Abuse (CPASA), said local union carpenters were kind enough to volunteer their time to put

a cover roof on the incinerator, which is located on the south side of the Princeton Police station. All CPASA had to pay for was the materials for the roof.

“We want everybody to know how excited we are the incinerator is almost ready for business, and we really appreciate the carpenters’ time and support,” Conerton said.

The stack on top of the incinerator will extend through the roof, CPASA member and Bureau Coun-

ty Coroner Janice Wamhoff explained. The stack will almost be higher than the building itself so no smoke comes back into or near the building. All CPASA will have to do then is put a security fence around the incinerator.

Conerton said everything takes time, and a few things will change once the incinerator is put to use.

Keep the cooking in the kitchen Here are some strategies to avoid sunburn this summer

Roaming into Buffalo Days LaMoille’s annual Buffalo Days event was held throughout the weekend and featured a host of activities for young and old alike. Of course, the popular buffalo burgers were a big attraction. Here, Brandon Briggs grills up some of the wellknown burgers for Linda Smith and Jim Sadnick.

It’s the time of the year for flip flops, shorts, tank tops and long summer days spent on a number of outdoor activities. But those bright sunny days conceal a dark side. All that exposed skin, especially if unprotected, can increase a person’s odds of getting skin cancer.

According to the American Cancer Society, skin cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed, with 5.4 million basal and squamous cell skin cancers found each year. In 2016, an approximate 76,380 people will hear the dreaded words — that they have the most feared and deadly type of skin cancer, melanoma.

While a large number of skin cancer patients are older, an increasing number are not. Melanoma is now one of the most common cancers for youth ages 15 to 29.

But with a little planning and common sense, people can reduce their skin cancer risk while still enjoying the long, hot summer season: • Don’t attempt to block the sun entirely: About 20 minutes a day of sunlight is good for people, giving them an adequate amount of Vitamin D. • Those who are concerned about the chemicals contained in sunscreen should seek alternative methods for skin protection. Some protection is better than none. One of the best ways to ensure sun protection without worrying about chemicals is by wearing as much protective clothing as possible while out in the sun, such as a water shirt while swimming.

The Old Wheels Car Show

A Brass Era antique to be featured at this year’s show

By Dave Cook dcook@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — This year’s Old Wheels Car Show is dedicated to the memory of one of its founders, Richard “Dick” Dorsch, and will include the presentation of a new vehicle at the show which he would have surely loved.

From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, June 18, at the First Lutheran Church in Princeton, the parking lot at the corner of Farnham and Pleasant Streets will once again be filled with classic and antique cars, motorcycles, trucks, tractors, music, food and fun for the whole family.

From 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. there will be brats, hot dogs and drinks for sale, and the show

will also be hosting a bake sale featuring a wide variety of homemade treats. A popular attraction for children in attendance will be the brightly colored train ride that circles the block, as well as visits from the show’s costumed mascots.

All proceeds from the show will support mobile food pantries and the Riverbend Foodbank.

The many local vehicles regularly in attendance are always a pleasure to see, and while there are always some new additions, this year will see the inclusion of a very special car.

Wyanet’s Tom Anderson will be bringing displaying his rare, recently completed 1910 Brush Runabout at the Old Wheels Car Show this weekend. Also on hand will be bigger-thanlife characters for the children to enjoy.

Zika reinforces the importance of insect repellent that cause encephalitis, West Nile and Lyme disease, that Americans can’t forget about and must protect themselves from this summer,” said Jay Kaplan, MD, FACEP, president of the American College of Emergency Physicians. “Taking protective measures when going outside is the best way to stay safe.”

The easiest and most effective way to avoid getting a mosquito-borne or tick-borne illness is obviously to prevent these insects from biting you.

Insect repellents • When you are outside, use insect repellent (bug spray) that contains an EPA-registered active ingredient, such as DEET. • Never use DEET on infants under 2 months old, but the CDC says most insect repellents can be used on children

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Zika virus has been identified in many locations, including reported cases here in the United States. The virus — which is specifically dangerous for pregnant women where it can lead to birth defects in infants — has been identified in at least 35 countries or territories in the Americas. Additionally, there have been more than 350 travel-related cases reported in the United States.

For the latest information on Zika go to https://www.acep.org/zika/.

While Zika is understandably in the news right now, the nation’s emergency physicians warn there are also other, very dangerous, insect-borne illnesses here in the United States that we need to protect ourselves from this summer.

“There are many mosquito-borne or tick illnesses, including several viruses

older than 2 months.

• Young children should not apply DEET on themselves, and adults must not apply to their hands, eyes or mouth areas or on any wounds. Check with your child’s pediatrician if you have any questions.

Proper clothing • Mosquitoes are most active when it is darker, such as during dawn or dusk.

Wear long sleeves and pants during that time or consider staying indoors during those hours.

• Sleep under a mosquito net when you are in an “at risk” location, such as outdoors at a campsite.

• Consider purchasing pre-treated clothing for travel.

• Check your head, body and clothes for ticks if you’ve been outside, especially in wooded areas.

Prevention around the house • Put screens on any windows or sliding doors to keep mosquitoes out.

• Get rid of standing water near your house or in your lawn, such as puddles, flower pots, buckets, barrels and child waiting pools when they are not in use. These are mosquito breeding sites.

Keep fountain waters flowing if possible and maintain clean gutters around your property.

• Don’t handle dead birds. Mosquitoes become infected when they feed on infected birds. Contact your local health department for instructions on reporting and disposing of dead birds.

As always, take precautions and go to your doctor or the nearest emergency department to get checked out if you feel you have the symptoms of a medical emergency.

Eleven years of miles and miles of sales for More on 34 More on 34 has become an annual weekend of treasure hunting in the Illinois countryside along Route 34 for bargain hunters, antique buyers and collectors from across the United States. Eleven years, 20 communities, more than 100 miles across five counties sets the stage for the granddaddy linear yard sale in Northern Illinois on Father’s Day weekend, June 17 and 18.

You never know what you will find along the way: yard sales, antique shows, craft shows, flea markets and farmer’s markets in communities from Galesburg to Aurora.

Sales can be found in parking lots, in city parks and in many yards all along Route 34. Sales typically run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., but some open earlier or remain open later. A few sellers even begin their sales on Thursday and continue through Sunday.

Cathy Foes, Henry County Tourism Bureau director, shares this advice: “Most of the sales are held on U.S. Highway 34, but don’t be afraid to venture off the route when you see one of the many signs that says ‘barn sale this way.’ I recently traveled to a seller’s barn located 2.5 miles off U.S. Highway 34 on the Van Orin Blacktop. All I can say is, ‘Oh my goodness.’ He and his wife have a lifetime collection of unique vintage farm, gas, and oil memorabilia plus an adorable pig collection.” Foes went on to say, “I met some locals, shot some video, and took photos for the More on 34 social media promotion and even bought a treasure. I’ve been involved for 10 years with More on 34, and it is a great way to experience the Illinois countryside. There is something for everyone in the family, let alone the memories to be made.”

Participating communities along the way are Galesburg, Wataga, Oneida, Altona, Galva, Kewanee, Neponset, Sheffield, Wyanet, Princeton, Dover, LaMoille, Mendota, Earlville, Leland, Somonauk, Sandwich, Plano, Yorkville and Aurora. Sandwich is a town already known for antique items with more than 20 shops downtown, but Timbercreek Inn and Suites will have vendors available outside selling their wares.

Make a stop in Earlville at the Methodist Church fundraiser; all sales are free-will donations and, while there, have a slice of home-baked pie. They sell out every year.

Bureau County Fairgrounds in Princeton will have a two-day sale on Friday and

Sunburn From Page 1 • Avoid the sun during the time of day when its rays are strongest, between 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For children who don’t want to wear a watch during their school-free days, the American Cancer Society recommends teaching them this rule: If your shadow is shorter than you, it means the sun is at its strongest and it would be wise to seek shade.

• Put a lid on it: Don’t forget that heads will burn too.

Those who will be out in the sun should consider wearing

New for 2016 in Kewanee is the Hog Capital BBQ Challenge, a Kansas City Barbecue Society sanctioned event. Kewanee Chamber of Commerce and Sullivan’s Foods are sponsors of the event held at Sullivan’s Food parking lot. Mark Mikenas, KCC director, states More on 34 attendees will be able to purchase great tasting BBQ from award-winning vendors (competitors will not be selling product) as well as enjoy a beer garden and music Friday night in Cerno’s beer tent. Friday night will also be the popular Lil Piggy Que where kids get a chance to cook and compete just like the big boys. On Saturday, the Backyard Competition starts up right alongside the traveling pros. BBQ turn in and judging starts at noon with awards being presented at approximately 3 p.m.

It’s the second year for Patchy’s Craftapalooza, an outdoor craft, vendor and flea market set up at Wethersfield School on the south end of Kewanee, Friday from noon to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., with more than 50 vendors.

Organizer Amber Patch-Troxell notes, “Local and out-of-state crafters that make fabulous homemade barn wood and wood items will be selling their creations. We also have many booths with handmade every day items such as pot and bowl holders, little girls’ bows and tutus.”

Money raised from Craftapalooza benefits more than 1,000 youngsters from Kewanee and area communities by providing Christmas gifts to those who otherwise would have nothing under the tree.

The effort was begun in 2009 in memory of Amber’s brother, Schuyler, who was killed in Afghanistan in 2009.

On the southern part of the route toward Galesburg, Galva’s America Legion will have vendors set up on the south end of town. Meander over to Altona for Amber Creek Antiques with treasures inside and out. A must-stop is Wataga where the park plays host to more than 40 vendors. Hawthorne Craft and Antique Mall in Galesburg will be brimming with antiques, foods and crafts inside and out.

Residents can drop off their unused or expired prescription medications at the following locations: • Princeton Police Department • Spring Valley Police Department • Ladd Police Department • Walnut Police Department • Bureau County Sheriff’s Office • Putnam County Sheriff’s Office in Hennepin.

Conerton said she wanted people to know they have been working diligently throughout to get the incinerator working, as the funds were raised and the instrument has been ready to be fired up for months. An opening ceremony was planned

Car Show From Page 1 Wyanet’s Tom Anderson will be bringing, and hopefully driving, his rare, recently completed 1910 Brush Runabout. What began five years ago as a pile of dirty old parts, with many of them missing, has been restored to all of its bright red, shiny brass glory.

“I’m hoping to be able to drive it to the show. I’ve had it out on the road, but there’s still some bugs to be worked out. Even if I have to trailer it, I’ll be there,” Anderson said.

Regardless of when the furnace burns up unnecessary medication, Conerton and all of CPASA are grateful for everyone’s

help in battling addiction and drug abuse in the area.

“That’s what makes CPASA and this whole community work so well together because it’s a whole community of support.”

these horseless carriages were manufactured between 1907 and 1913.

Only 13,250 of the single cylinder autos were produced during this period, though only a small amount remain today.

They’re popular in Australia because the first car to drive across the continent was a Brush Runabout.

Advertised as an “Everyman’s Car,” the little runabouts sold for $485. Promoted as costing less to run than a horse, as well as lasting longer, being more reliable and requiring less care, the 10 horsepower autos helped usher in the automotive era with their 25 mph top speed.

“Twenty-five mph doesn’t sound very fast,

but when you’re traveling down the road in this at that speed, you feel like you’re doing 80,” Anderson laughed.

With its’ wood wheels, frame, axles and steering wheel, along with the brass radiator, lights, horn and fittings, the little runabout is obviously from a time long before the chrome laden autos so closely associated with car shows.

Anderson will also be appearing in his specially made costume of “Rex Masters” as one of the show’s mascots.

Serving Bureau County Since 1847

Sam R Fisher

Terri Simon

Publisher

Editor

From the editor’s desk I spent last Friday in Springfield at the annual Illinois Press Association convention. As always, it was great to see colleagues I’ve met throughout the years, and it’s always nice to be acknowledged for our work with the Bureau County Republican, the Putnam County Record, Terri the Tonica News, the Simon Illinois Valley Scene, Illinois Valley Living COMMENTARY magazine, AgMag magazine and several special sections we produce annually.

Both the editorial and advertising departments did very well in this annual competition, where our work is judged alongside other newspaper/media outlets with similar circulation numbers. While it’s nice to see so many newspapers doing great things, I’m always impressed with the caliber of our products, as they compare to others. Apparently, the judges are too.

This newspaper clearly brought home some hardware, which means we were judged in many categories as the Top 4 in the state of Illinois — first place, second, third or honorable mention. While some may want to give me the credit for these accomplishments since I am the editor, nothing could be further from the truth.

You see, our staff — both advertising and editorial — is comprised of a group of people who have the ability to not only be creative, but to reach into their hearts and tell the stories of our friends and neighbors. We live with the motto that everybody has a story, and we are honored to be able to tell those stories to our readers.

I guess what I’m basically trying to say is I am very proud of the staff here, and I applaud not just their awards from the convention, but these folks who I am privileged with which to work every day. They humble me. They make me a better person, and I try to reciprocate. If you see any of our staff members out and about, please give them a well-deserved pat on the back. Your award-winning newspaper staff will appreciate your kindness more than you know.

••• It was a fast-paced weekend, wasn’t it? Between LaMoille’s Buffalo Days on the northeast side of the county all the way to the western border with Neponset Days, there was no shortage of fun things to do. This upcoming weekend promises to be just as busy. Enjoy.

••• The heat is on. Last Saturday’s hot, sultry and humid weather was stifling. While our beloved Midwest summers contain many of those days, please remember this is a good time to keep an eye on older neighbors during these hot and humid days. Heat can be very difficult, especially to those who have health conditions — old and young alike. Maybe you can pick up something from the grocery for them or even pick up their medications, so they don’t have to get out. Also, if they don’t have air conditioning, a cup of coffee or a cold drink in your air conditioned home would go a long way to helping them get some relief from the heat. In other words, please keep your neighbors, friends and family in mind during those hot days.

Also, don’t forget your four-legged friends. An animal that has to stay outdoors in the heat 24/7 can quickly become overheated. Their water needs to be changed several times a day. And remember, an animal in a car — where the temperature can easily reach triple digits very quickly — is a recipe for disaster. Remember, your animals can’t speak for themselves. Please be kind to them.

••• Speaking of that hot weather, our area pools are brimming with youngsters and fun. This is a good time to remind them of safety rules at the pool, whether it’s a public pool or the one in your backyard. Also, if you need a few extra smiles, go watch our area youth at one of the outdoor pools in the area. It’s fun, and you’ll leave feeling good about the energy our area children exude.

••• Have a great week. Father’s Day is this Sunday. Don’t forget to honor your dad, grandpa or any other men in your life that make a difference. And remember ... you are important to me and the BCR.

On the street

What do you think the best solution to maintaining the Flags of Freedom by the interstate?

“We need to fund raise to keep the four flags flying as many days a year as possible. The visitors love to see the flags.”

Mary Kramer, Princeton

“The best solution to maintaining the Flags of Freedom is by fundraising and private donations.”

Libbi Moore, Princeton “I know no one wants to hear it. I think pass a tax. It was originally started by donations and group of people who were very passionate about it. That passion is still there, but funds aren’t always there. It is a symbol of our freedom, and you can’t put a price on that.”

Jason Floyd, Sheffield “I believe they should keep the flags there. Just like any other business that has a flag up for our country.

When they start getting torn up, you replace them.

Even if you have to ask for donations for the flags.”

Doug Smith, Princeton

“I would not be opposed to paying an additional fee/ tax (say $1 on our monthly utility bill) to help offset the city’s expense. If everyone did that it would help out quite a bit. I love the flags, as do so many others in our community!”

Heather Mason, Princeton “First of all, the city took on the responsibility of the flags. I believe the information they were given was incorrect as to the costs, but they accepted them.

So, they will need to look at private donations and possibly sponsorships to keep the flags flying.”

Gary Hanna, Princeton

Honoring all veterans in our cemeteries To the Editor: As part of a project I am working on, I spent this past Memorial Day wandering through several local cemeteries. All were well maintained, and most graves were decorated for the holiday.

Making my way through the individual sections of the burials I began to notice something that I thought was not right as I followed the trail of American flags that were supposed to be decorating the graves of veterans. I began to see many graves of veterans clearly marked on the tombstones with the war they fought in and the unit they served with, but with no flag or veteran metal marker. Yet, their wife buried next to them had an American Legion or VFW Auxiliary marker and a flag. Sometimes I would find a flag next to the grave of a small child that died very young, obviously with no military connection whatsoever. I passed several graves of men I knew to be veterans, but as their tombstones had no military information on them, there was no marker or flag by them.

I know that over time markers get lost or moved (I worked mowing grass at Oakland Cemetery a few seasons in high school many years ago), and I also know that many men or their families had no interest in memorializing the man’s military service. I can respect that, but if a man thought enough of his service to his country to have his military information on his headstone, shouldn’t we show that veteran the respect he deserves and the courtesy of a marker and flag for his grave?

I challenge the local veteran organizations to canvas all the county cemeteries and do what they can to get these veteran graves properly marked so that in future Memorial Day or Veterans’ Day celebrations those who want to say a silent “Thank You” to these men who gave a part of their lives so we can live ours as we do today will have a faster means of finding a veteran’s grave to make that declaration of thanks.
