Mother's Day History

By Donovan Darling, Staff Writer

M

other’s Day is a holiday which honors mothers and is celebrated throughout the entire world. The modern form of the holiday started in the United States, where we observe it on the second Sunday in May. Many countries across the globe celebrate Mother’s Day on this same day, while others celebrate throughout the year at various times.

During the Middle Ages, the custom developed from allowing people who had moved away to visit their home parish and their mothers on Laetare Sunday, the fourth Sunday of Lent. This would become Mothering Sunday in Britain, where it continued into modern times until it was replaced by Mother’s Day. This year Mother’s Day is celebrated on Sunday, May 8.

Festivals which honor mothers and mother goddesses date back to ancient times. The Phrygians hosted a festival for Cybele, the Great Mother of the Gods, and the Greeks did also for the goddess Rhea. Similarly, the Romans adapted the practice to their own liking. Some countries have continued to observe ancient festivals. For example, Durga-puja, honoring the goddess Durga, remains an important festival in India.

Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia, whose mother organized women’s groups to promote health and friendship, founded Mother’s Day. On May 12, 1907, she hosted a memorial service at her late mother’s church in Grafton, West Virginia.

In five years almost every state observed the holiday, and in 1914 U.S. President Woodrow Wilson made it an official national holiday.

Although Anna Jarvis orignally promoted white carnations as a tribute to mothers, another custom developed instead: wearing a red or pink carnation for living mothers and a white carnation for mothers who were deceased. Over the years the holiday expanded to include others such as grandmothers and aunts who served in roles of motherhood. Much to Jarvis’s frustration, what originally started as a day of honor would become a day of sending greeting cards and gifts. In protest of the holiday’s commercialization and seeming frivolousness, Jarvis spent her final years trying to abolish the holiday she had brought into being. What a twist! info from www.britannica.com/topic/ Mothers-Day

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

CROWN PATIO COVERS

Enjoy the Outdoors No Matter the Weather!

By Colton Womack, Contributing Writer

Oregon is a state best known for its scenic landscape, and with it comes a thorough experience of the four seasons. It’s important to be able to enjoy the outdoors no matter the weather, and better yet if it’s from the comfort of your own patio – whether it be a family get-together, a barbecue, or simply a private retreat. This was a need felt strongly by the good people at Crown Patio Covers, a business locally owned by a husband and wife team born and raised in Oregon.

They graduated from Oregon State University in 2004. With a passion for business ownership, and wanting to have a positive impact on their local community, the patio cover business was a perfect fit. It also gave them the opportunity to show their two kids, ages 8 and 10, what it looks like to work hard and meet the needs of others. They built an all-star team from the best people in the industry, made up of folks with up to 15 years of experience, and sought to fill a niche that wasn’t being served in their community: high quality, affordable patio covers to expand outdoor living spaces.

What separates Crown Patio Covers is their culture and the quality of their products.

Offering services from North Salem all the way up to Vancouver, they cover the wider Portland Metro area. Using aluminum framing, double-layered acrylic paneling, and with a hefty snow load, these patio covers won’t yellow, brittle or break – unlike the poly-carbonate of their competitors! With complete UV protection, and a variety of transparency options, the customer is able to tailor how much light comes through so they can enjoy the beauty of the open sky while still having shelter.

A design consultant will also advise customers on their services and options, even helping to develop custom designs to match their needs. With clear communication and reliable installation, they’ve made sure the process of purchasing with them is a breeze.

It’s this customer-first approach that allows Crown Patio Covers to help people spend more time with friends and family in the backyard, and have fewer rainy days spoil the fun!

For All Your Flag, Flagpole, Banner & Kite Needs!

Elmer’s Flag & Banner was started by Elmer Reider in 1963. A former car salesman, Elmer learned about a new kind of business when his car lot was visited by a man whose trade was decorating dealerships with flags, signs and colorful banners. “The story goes that there was a guy who was coming around doing decorations for the car lot,” explains Dave Anchel, president of Elmer’s. “Elmer asked him if he was making any money and the guy said, ‘Better than you!’”

Elmer believed it, so he left auto sales for the car lot decorating business. The store prospered, thanks to his talent for spotting niche business opportunities, like flags and banners, and his commitment to building customer loyalty with quality products and honest service. Today, Elmer’s is Portland’s largest flag, banner and kite store, with 4,000 square feet of products, everything from weathervanes to windsocks.

Anchel grew up in rural northeast Pennsylvania, where he spent 22 years in the family business, learning how to run a successful small company. In their search for a business to purchase, Anchel and his wife visited Portland and fell in love. “We came to Portland, had some really good chocolate and said to each other, ‘We could live here,’” he recalls.

Variety is the spice of life and it’s also what you’ll find at Elmer’s.

Anchel estimates the store offers some 8,000 different products, about 1,200 of which are available online. Elmer’s also makes its

own custom flags and banners, by hand and in-house. They make both high-quality, digitally designed flags and banners, and are one of the only companies in the United States that still does appliqué - the time-honored tradition of sewing one piece of fabric onto another - just like Betsy Ross.

“We make those by hand, upstairs in our sewing shop, and they look gorgeous,” Anchel explains. “It’s for when people want an heirloom qualquality flag, like of their family crest, or when a high school wins a chamchampionship and wants to hoist a banner to their gymnasium ceiling.”

Elmer’s also manufactures, sells, installs and services custom poles, including two of the tallest in the state of Oregon, measuring 120 feet. “They’re monsters,” Anchel says with a laugh.

Elmer’s selection of kites, flags, banners, weather vanes, wind spinspinners and other wind toys will amaze you. Looking to spruce up your home’s exterior? Stop into the retail store at 1332 NE Broadway in Portland, Monday-Friday from 8:30am to 5:30pm and Saturdays from 10am to 4pm. Or visit their website, elmersflag.com anytime.

SEASONAL

By Donovan Darling, Staff Writer

Disney/ Pixar’s Brave (2012) - PG

This gorgeously animated Disney/ Pixar movie tells the story of a princess named Merida who, drawing upon her bravery and archery skills, must save her mother, Queen Elinor, from an evil curse. Their relationship is a classic push and pull, with Elinor being the prim and proper queen touting rules and traditionalism, while Merida rebels often, deeply, and much to her mother’s disappointment. Brave takes place in a fictional Scotland for a change, and honestly who doesn’t love hearing Scottish accents for 90 minutes? In an interesting twist and a full year before Frozen, Merida has no love interest! She’s an empowered young woman who doesn’t need a man, and with her equestrian and fighting skills she can defeat the evil curse and save her family!

Step Mom (1998) - PG 13

Directed by Chris Columbus and starring Julia Roberts, Susan Sarandon, and Ed Harris, Step Mom is a complex look at motherhood.

Three years after his divorce, Luke Harrison proposes to his dramatically younger girlfriend, fashion photographer Isabel Kelly.

But when flighty Isabel finally meets Luke’s children, the children’s strong allegiance to their mother becomes incredibly obvious and problematic. Isabel tries and fails to charm her would-be stepchildren, and Jackie the ex-wife and mother, until a family crisis throws a wrench into the machine of fate. Beautiful, heartbreaking, and a stark look at the modern family.

The Sound of Music (1965) - G

Legendary and not needing an introduction (yet here we are), The Sound of Music changed film and musical history forever. Starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, this is a melodic and heartwarming story based on the real story of the Von Trapp Family singers, one of the world’s bestknown concert groups in the era just before World War II. Julie Andrews plays Maria, a spitfire nun at an Austrian abbey who becomes a governess in the home of a widowed naval captain with seven children, and who brings a new love of life and music into the home! It’s light, fun, whimsical, a classic for the whole family.

Forrest Gump (1994) - PG 13

Sally Field plays a modern and self-empowered woman and mother whose love and support triumphs over all in this Tom Hanks boxoffice smash. With 6 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor, this movie still moves me to tears and uncontrollable laughter after all these years. Forrest is a lovable guy who tries his best to do what’s right, even when everything goes wrong. Abandoned by his father and mentally and physically disabled, Forrest starts life with an incredible challenge. But thanks to his mother’s support and his own persistence, he becomes a star quarterback, war hero, wildly successful shrimp boat captain, and husband and father. It’s whimsical, heartbreaking, unwavering, historical, and quintessentially American. Due to graphic content, this one’s for adults and late teens only!

WARD TREE CARE

ard Tree Care is a Portland Metro area provider of tree care services located just outside of Tualatin. Let’s meet Christopher Ward, Certified Arborist and Owner, who discusses his business and what concerns him in the urban forest.

“We have made a business out of providing tree care services in the urban forest, but we see some changes occurring in the region caused by these intense summer droughts.” He walks out to a pile of logs adjacent to a mill. “These Western Red Cedar trees died because of drought. The beetles moved in for the kill,” he says.

Chris explains that his shop recycles some of the logs into benches and tables. “It’s a new part of business, to be

In the shop, a few stacks of planed Douglas fir and Black Walnut slabs are prepared for assemblage into benches. “I guess these benches are a kind of ‘green infrastructure’,” Chris jokes. “Seriously, though, I mean the real green infrastructure is the whole urban forest and all of its ecosystem services. We must be thinking

Be sure to provide clearance from homes as fires— even small residential fires—can quickly escalate in a neglected landscape.”

He continues, “In the immediate rural and semi-rural areas there is a tremendous backlog of forest maintenance, and property owners should be thinking of creating fire defensible spaces around the home and property. We can help identify these risks and help provide some important fuels reduction work. Our skills as climbing arborists give us the ability to prune and thin the forest with lower impact and a greater emphasis on tree preservation than some other methods.” of how to maintain the urban forest even against a background of climate change.”

What should homeowners and property owners be doing to improve their trees?

“Beyond the usual maintenance—removing hazard trees and dead trees—think also of the needs of trees as we approach Summer, remember that we may see some extended heat. Don’t over prune trees late in the

HISTORY

The History of Linfield Football: A Streak of Greatness

By Robert Matsumura, Contributing Writer

If

you’re a fan of college football, doubtless names like the “Crimson Tide,” “Fighting Irish,” and “Buckeyes” require no explanation. They speak for themselves. However, if you don’t follow NCAA Division III football, you might not realize that one of the nation’s most successful football programs resides right down the street in McMinnville, Oregon.

None of the haloed Division I teams cited above can match the accomplishments of the Linfield University Wildcats.

It started on an autumn day, October 6, 1956. Great things often have humble beginnings, and for Linfield football this was certainly the case. While it would have been more dramatic if the Wildcats’ win that day had been defined by a scintillating highlight moment—a miraculous last minute catch in the endzone, or a gutty goal line stand—such was not the case.

experience it and build up over the years.” For a team composed of small town kids and Korean War veterans attending college on the GI Bill, they had no idea that their victory over the Ramblers that fateful October day would be the start of the “Streak.” The “Streak,” which has now extended to 65 consecutive winning seasons as of 2021, is the longest active winning streak in NCAA history at any level. No other team is even close to this record, with the next in line coming in at 42. In retrospect, Ward admits no one at the time had any idea of what was to come. “I guarantee you that in 1956, nobody had any idea there would be any kind of streak,” he said. “We were just happy that we could get through the season with a win.”It was coach Paul Durham’s team that started the “Streak,” but it is a testament to the pride, tradition, and dedication to excellence, fostered by successive coaches over the last six decades, that is

1956 Linfield champs

Linfield had just suffered back-to-back losing seasons, and the 1956 campaign looked like more of the same. The opponent that Saturday was the Seattle Ramblers, a semi-pro team on a tear, who had defeated the Wildcats the previous year, and dominated the conference titles over the last 14 seasons. Against the odds, Linfield managed to defeat the Ramblers 13-7. From that game on, the Wildcats wouldn’t lose another game that season. This win over the Ramblers marked the beginning of what has become known as the “Streak.”

Paul Ward, who played guard on the ’56 team, recalled: “Once we had a winning season, we knew we could win. We had to 28

responsible for Linfield’s relentless march through the NCAA history books. Looming at the forefront of the Mount Rushmore of Linfield football coaches is Ad Rutschman. Hired as head football coach in 1968, Rutschman continued the winning tradition until his retirement in 1991. Rutschman not only coached football, but baseball as well. Rutschman is still the only coach at any level to win national titles in both football and baseball. In his 24 seasons as Linfield ’s head football coach, Rutschman won three NAIA national championships (1982, 1984, 1986), and 15 Northwest Conference titles. Perhaps Rutschman’s most epic victory occurred in the 1984 national

championship game, where Linfield trailed Northwestern 22-0 with just over three minutes left in the third quarter. Against all odds, the Wildcats roared back to win the game 33-22.

In addition to coaching football and baseball, Rutschman also served as Athletic Director for 25 years, during which time the school’s athletic facilities were greatly improved.

Among these improvements were two new gymnasiums, a baseball stadium, and the 26,600 square foot field house named in honor of Rutschman and his wife Joan, for their dedication and service over 27 years to Linfield University.

From 1992 to 2005, Linfield’s football program was led by Ed Langsdorf (1992-95) and Jay Locey (1996 -2005). Both coaches kept up the winning tradition. Langsdorf ’s brief tenure resulted in a record of 32-9-1 and three championships.

Locey’s tally at the end of his Linfield career was a stellar 84-18 and six championships, including one NCAA Division III title. During one stretch of his impressive career, Locey coached the team to a 41-game win streak.

one another. This intense trust that grows from respect and brotherhood is interwoven with a blue-collar work ethic of toughness

and we are the hammer.”

So next fa ll, as Linf ield continues on its historic ma rch through the NCAA record books, take a moment to appreciate what six decades of commitment to family, grit, and excellence can achieve. As Coach Smith ref lected, “From Coach Durha m to Coach Rutschman, to now, the secret to this place has been that we have really good people coming and being part of a really good program. When you focus on excellence and put the team first and you’re a man of your word, great things happen.” The “Streak ” lives on!

“It couldn’t be someone from the outside to come in and run the program,” Smith explained. ‘We had to maintain who we are. If we lost that, we’re just another school’.”

In 2006, the future of Linfield football was turned over to Joseph Smith, and he has not only continued the “Streak” but pushed the school into the NCAA record books. Under Smith’s leadership Linfield has amassed an incredible record of 13827, with a .836 win percentage, the highest percentage of any coach in Linfield history.

When Smith, a former defensive back for Linfield in the 90s, took over in 2006, he was well aware of the legacy he was responsible for and described his role as that of a “caretaker.” With Locey’s departure, Smith understood that the decision to hire him had been carefully considered. “It couldn’t be someone from the outside to come in and run the program,” Smith explained.

“We had to maintain who we are. If we lost that, we’re just another school.”

The Smith era at Linfield has been nothing short of remarkable. For a school that offers no football scholarships, a modest budget for athletics, and typically doesn’t attract big time recruits with NFL aspirations and talent, the question remains: “How does Linfield do it?” How do the Wildcats continue to churn out victories, winning seasons, and championships? Ultimately, how do they keep the “Streak ” alive?

Smith credits a number of factors, foremost of which is the sense of family that permeates the entire Wildcat program. Caring for

and a thirst for excellence. Ryan Carlson, a defensive star on the 90s era teams, sums it up beautifully: “Once you’re in our Linfield family, you’re connected to 60 years of people who have had those core principles shape their young lives.

Those life experiences continue to breed an incredible amount of love and loyalty towards the program.” As inspiration to his players, Smith periodically invites guest speakers to address the team. One of the speakers, Bretton Brown, an Army Ranger and a friend of Smith’s, imparted words from the Rangers’ credo that resonated with the team: “We are Men of Action.

We do the heavy lifting. We are the walls,
