Flash flood shocks Calhoun residents By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald Residents, especially farmers, were hoping for some rain to cool off what had been a pervasive heat wave in the area, but what Calhounians experienced Saturday evening was a little more than they were expecting– or hoping for.

Calhoun County Sheriff “We just didn’t need that much rain. We needed some rain. We got a lot more than we hoped,” said Robin Hillen, Batchtown resident who, like many others, witnessed the aftermath of the storm. Depending on what part of the county people were in, residents saw an estimated 3-7 inches of rain in the span of an hour from the storm that came through the county, leading to overflowing ditches and ponding across the parts of the county along with downed crops and trees. “It varied greatly throughout,” Gene Breden, Calhoun Emergency Services Disaster Agency coordinator, said. “The farther north of Hardin you went, the less rain you got. There was a heavy band of rain that came through Hardin and

the Batchtown area, and they got quite a bit of rain.” While a storm was not entirely a shock for those that found themselves outside on the road in the midst of the storm, it was certainly surprising how quickly puddles turned into ponds. “The ditches were over-

whelmed because all of the rain came down in about a 45-minute period,” Breden said. The water did not lead to an overflow surge in the surrounding rivers, leading to more flooding. Even still, the storm downed lines and trees and stranded a few vehicles on

Brussels schools fitness center back online Committee formed to look into co-op By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald About 20 spectators showed up at the Brussels School Board meeting last week to voice their thoughts on the interest to establish another sports co-op agreement with Calhoun Unit 40 as well as to express interest in the Brussels fitness center opening up again. While the potential to see another co-op in the area is still in the works, Brussels leaders could confirm later that the fitness center would open as of Monday, June 21, after a year and a half offline. Brussels leaders spoke with insurance providers and attorneys, who both called on the district to follow the Illinois State Board of Education’s and the governor’s rules before making such decisions. The fitness center was then opened Monday, following Phase 5 guidelines. This opening comes with a caveat, though. “If everyone present in the building at one time is vaccinated, fully vaccinated, we needn’t wear masks or social distance,” Brussels Superintendent Mark Martin said. “However, if they are all not vaccinated, then we do need to wear masks and observe the three-foot social distancing.” Community members, about 20-30 usually, utilize the space for fitness needs and buy monthly memberships to the fitness center, getting a passcard to get in. “It was just shut down because of COVID concerns,” Martin said. “...It has been shut down for a long time.” Most of the discussion from visitors at the meeting, though, centered on the interest in the district to establish another co-op with Calhoun Unit 40. Currently, there is only one co-op with Calhoun for football, where only a handful of students play. Along with their football co-op with Calhoun, the district also has one with St. Mary’s School on a clay target shooting team. There was interest in recent months though to

expand that partnership to other sports – namely boys baseball and basketball. Worry has been expressed by parents that the low enrollment in the school will impact the athletic programs. Based on what was said at the meeting, there is a difference in opinion among parents on what to do. “It seems like the majority of people...were interested in forming some kind of co-op in either a handful of sports or all sports,” Martin said. “But a few people spoke up and said, ‘We do not want to do this. My child is not interested in playing on another team other than a home team,’ so there are those differences.” One parent expressed concern over transportation. Would the district bus the student athletes over? The board did not address these questions. “I am not crazy about the idea of kids leaving early from the academic program to go to a ballgame practice,” Martin said. “... Academic classes come first. We should not be cutting them short… We see our first job as the education of the student.” Notably, the discussions about such a co-op are still in the beginning stages, so much so that a committee was just established to look into the co-op possibilities with Calhoun Unit 40. At the meeting, the board approved committee members to talk about another co-op with a matching committee in Calhoun Unit 40, “exploring additional co-ops, whether they are interested in all, which ones they are interested in and starting to work out details if we are able to go that way,” Martin said. The Brussels committee consists of Patrick Simon, Trish Long, Jeanne Johnes and Kim Klaas. “They (the two committees) will be meeting together to see if there are opportunities to move forward with this or what,” the Brussels superintendent said. Also in the meeting, board members made the annual amendment to the budget ahead of the end of the fiscal year. (See, BRUSSELS, A2)

Commissioners mull over Extension building repairs By CONNOR ASHLOCK Calhoun News-Herald

he commissioners discussed the Extension building at their June 21 meeting. It was previously brought to their attention that the building was in need of several repairs. Commissioner Doug Wilschetz reported to the board that he had visited the facility to assess the various repair needs that were reported to the commissioners and found that he agreed with local Extension personnel with their recommendations on what needed to be fixed. “As I walked through, they gave me a list of everything that needed to be repaired, and I agree with what they said,” Wilschetz said. It was also noted that the list of repairs would have to be prioritized in order to prevent spending too much money at once. The list of repairs includes painting the interior and exterior of the building, but Wilschetz noted the exterior was the most important. The roof is also in need of repair, as it is evident that it is starting to rust. Wilschetz expressed that it appeared at the outset that the roof can be repaired rather than replaced, which would be the more cost-effective approach. The roof is also leaking, which isn’t a new occurrence with the Extension office, as the building’s roof has previously leaked before, at

one time causing electrical problems in the building. The leaking that is happening now has not, thus far, affected the building’s electricity, but it remains a possibility if left unattended to. The list of repairs also touched on various odds and ends within the building as well. Both bathrooms have linoleum flooring that is getting bad, according to Wilschetz, and the kitchen faucet doesn’t work. Additionally, there are some drainage problems around the building, too. There’s some issues with light fixtures needing work as well as replacing the fluorescent lighting for lessexpensive LED lighting in those fixtures that still are equipped with them. The kitchen cabinets, according to Wilschetz, need someone with a little bit of carpentry experience to go in and work on them, and the carpets in the building need a little bit of cleaning, too. “Overall, there’s quite a few things that it needs, but I believe the two most important things are getting a coat of paint on the roof and doing some electrical work inside,” Wilschetz said. The rest of the board agreed with Wilschetz’s assessment and expressed a desire to get the building back up to snuff as soon as they could, which is why they moved the discussion to figuring out how they wanted to bid out the work and what could be done by hands already on deck.

Flash flood (Continued from A1) “It was just raining so hard we pulled over, and we pulled over into the substation parking lot – a gravel lot just south of Batchtown,” Julie said. “...The water was blowing sideways in sheets. It kept changing directions.” The visibility was next to nothing, and they hoped the rain would slow. They checked the weather radar on their phones, looking at where the storm was tracking as they waited. “I would say the weird thing about it is that it seemed to kind of form just north of Calhoun County, and it just kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger, and when you looked on the radar, it was just all red,” she said. The rain was not stopping, though, and within 20 minutes, she noticed something happening outside their car. “I looked outside the car, and we were sitting in about a foot of water,” she said. “Where we had parked was slowly filling in.” It became clear waiting it out would not be the best option. “Fortunately the car started, and I pushed a lot of water to get out of there,” Julie said. “I probably drove for a good 40-50 feet in a good foot of water to get back up on the highway.” A trip that normally would be an hour and 20 minutes turned into two and a half hours. They made it, though. She noted that pictures of the spot they were parked in shortly after they left showed two more feet of water. The experience she had was not like any she had ever experienced before, and she was not alone in that sentiment. Such a flood had not been seen in the county for years – excluding the flood of 2019, which was because of extended rainfall here and up north. Breden said it has probably been about five years since a surge like this occurred. Hillen mentioned seeing a similar kind of rainfall during the Meppen Picnic in 2015. In another part of the county, Calhoun Sheriff Bill Heffington was called out to what was a close call for two fishers. According to reports, the fisherman were fishing above the dam in Winfield when the storm hit. Heffington said the waters got high quickly, and they had to evacuate the boat at the spillway and walk to safety. After the deluge of rainfall, the flood waters receded in a relatively short time, but the damage by the water and the wind had been done – especially to the crop. “Crops are going to suffer some,” Robin Hillen said. “Hopefully they will spring back up, but my husband said if the corn had been a foot or so taller it would have been cata-

By BILL HOAGLAND There has been much controversy lately as to whether teenagers should be getting vaccinated for COVID. It will be coming to a head within the next few months when colleges and high schools reopen for the fall and decisions have to be made whether to make the vaccination mandatory for teenagers. The issue boils down as to whether these vaccinations are as safe for teenagers as they appear to be for older adults. And unfortunately, the volunteers used during the testing phases to get these vaccines approved did not include many children under 18 years of age so to some extent, we are in uncharted territory as to what effect these vaccines have on children. In addition, there continue to be rare but adverse side effects to the various vaccines being administered worldwide, and this creates understandable concern for parents everywhere. The most recent side effect for teenagers getting one of the vaccines is “myocarditis,” which is an inflammation of the heart muscle that pumps blood to the rest of the body. The symptoms of myocarditis include shortness of breath, rapid or irregular heartbeat, dizziness and chest pain. Because I have teenage grandkids, I wanted to verify whether myocarditis really is occurring in teenagers as a result of these vaccinations and whether there is a legitimate concern about teenagers getting vaccinated because of this side effect. After a considerable amount of searching, I found what appears to be a credible source to answer the issue of what we should do. This source is Dr. Christy Risinger, a medical doctor and internist practicing in Austin, Texas. She seems particularly credible to me because she has four children of her own under the age of 16 and this is a personal issue for her. Risinger’s discussion of this issue

was rendered on June 4 and hopefully can still be found on YouTube. According to Dr. Risinger, there have been reports of myocarditis occurring in teenagers following COVID19 vaccinations but overall, they have been rare. As proof of this, she refers to the vaccination program in Israel, where it was mandatory that all children over the age of 15 be vaccinated. The Israel government vaccinated approximately five million people, including teenagers 16 and older, with the Pfizer vaccine. Of those persons between the ages of 16 and 30, on average, approximately one person out of every five thousand developed myocarditis after the vaccination. The medical conclusion was that there was a possible causal relationship between the vaccine and the development of myocarditis. Dr. Risinger also discussed what is happening here in the US; there have been relatively few teenagers who have developed myocarditis following receiving either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, but it is happening. If diagnosed soon enough, myocarditis apparently can be treated successfully with rest and medication. But here is the most significant part of this medical history: there have been no adverse results from the Johnson & Johnson vaccine with respect to myocarditis; and of the adverse results following administration of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, nearly all of the adverse reactions were in young males, not young women. It is believed that the reactions occurred because some young males, being young, develop excessive antibodies as a reaction to the vaccine, and it is this excess that triggers the inflammation. The advice Risinger gives sounds reasonable. She says that if you have female chil-

dren, the risk of developing myocarditis for them appears to be almost non-existent based on the medical history that is available. If you have male children, you have several options. You can go ahead with both doses of Pfizer or Moderna because the overall risk is low in any event. If still uneasy about it, your boys can receive the Johnson and Johnson vaccine; or they can spread out the two doses of Pfizer or Moderna vaccine beyond the normal waiting time between the first and second doses, or they can just get one dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine now and wait to see if it is determined that one dose is sufficient for children. Apparently, Dr. Risinger intends to have her children vaccinated with the first dose of either Pfizer or Moderna and then wait to see what is happening with the vaccination effort on teenagers elsewhere. Obviously, as a parent, you owe it to yourself and your children to keep abreast of developments. To be more specific about it, Israel is now going to vaccinate children between the ages of 12 and 15. It would be important to track to what extent these children develop myocarditis to get a better idea of the risk that may be involved. Let’s face it; we really are entering uncharted territory. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Bill Hoagland has practiced law in Alton for more than 50 years, but he has spent more than 70 years hunting, fishing and generally being in the great outdoors.

Water slowly consumes the Illinois River Road just north of the Batchtown T in Calhoun Saturday.

strophic. He thought the corn and beans might be able to gain their strength.” Hillen and her husband, Barnard Hillen, a farmer and local firefighter, had ground they farm over by the “Batchtown T,” and they went to check on the property as soon as they could that day along with checking on neighbors. “The Batchtown T looked like an ocean,” Heffington said. The properties were fine for the most part. Some lines and trees were down, but structures were intact. Robin noted sheds with farm equipment did see water, but the damage appeared to be minimal. “As far as we know, the damage to the properties that we went by were not too severe, but had it gotten higher in the houses on Illinois River Road, that would have been bad,” she said. Robin was thankful the storm was not worse. “I am just glad there was no loss of life for one thing,” she said. Emergency personnel and residents alike were all thankful for the work of those in the highway department. The Calhoun County Highway Department was out there most of the night, cutting up trees and opening roads because the county had some roads that were closed due to trees being down them. “The highway department did an excellent job as usual,” Breden said. “The county engineer got his people out there right away, and they were on it.” Julie Godar could attest to that first hand. When she and her husband were coming back from

St. Louis that night, they were heading north back into Hardin. Just south of the Hardin city limits at Lincoln Valley Road, a huge tree fell across both lanes of the road. They were stuck and called the sheriff’s department to report it. “I have to say probably within 10 minutes, the county highway department and some of the village of Hardin road crew showed up and started working on it right away,” Julie said. “I’d say within a half an hour, they had it cleared, and we could drive through. They did an awesome job.” Notably, the county used its emergency communications systems to alert people to closed roads, and following the surge, the highway department was hard at work getting roads back online.

I’ve told you about my fishing adventures with Mike. He’s a local striper guide. I have fished with him on numerous occasions, but most of the time I am his helper when I have friends come and use his services. We always have a good time, and it’s even better when all those on board catch plenty of fish. Most of the time, there’s about four guys who join us for about a half-day of fishing. Mike has everything ready when we arrive. The rods are ready for the bait, he’s got a good idea where the fish are located, and he’s already been out before 4 a.m. getting live bait for the day. Heck, he even provides water and snacks for all. During the summer, the boat leaves at 6 a.m., and there’s normally a short ride before we begin to locate the species we’ve come after. Mike’s fish-finder looks

like a large computer screen, or maybe a small television. It has more lines, graphs, shapes and notifications than a stock market ticker tape. Again, it’s all part of making it easy for those who are his guests, whether they are novices or experts. When we do locate our fish, Mike baits the hooks, lowers the lines and instructs his crew to simply raise the rod and give it a little tug when a fish gets on. Mike has done all the work so anyone who wants to fish can have success. Pretty neat. This is a great illustration of the work Christians believe was done by Jesus for each of us, to ensure a right relationship with God. Jesus made all the preparation, did all the work and sacrificed all the effort needed, so the sin that was separating us from God would be destroyed. And after he did all that, he invited every person to join him in the boat.

Don’t be concerned about bringing anything. He has that covered. Don’t concern yourself with your lack of ability. He has planned for that. Just get in and enjoy the gift the captain has provided for you. While it cost him everything, it costs you nothing. And he paid the price not out of resentment, but for the hope he has of being the good captain of your life. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Gary has three books that are compilations of the articles he has written for nearly 15 years.

A considerable amount for us was spent on COVID.” These expenses included cleaning supplies, masks, rubber gloves, disposal styrofoam trays, plastic silverware and bus services. At the same time, they were saving money on heat-

“Grinnell Mutual can only be successful when our business partners are successful,” said President and CEO Jeff Menary. “The trusted relationships we have cultivated with our mutual members and agents is the foundation for that success.

Its products are available in 17 states.

ing costs with the relatively recent switch from fuel oil heating their buildings. They also saved on substitutes, because their drivers did not get sick as much, “which was probably a function of wearing masks all of the time and lots of cleaning and hand washing,” Martin said. It was announced at the meeting that Brussels High School Principal Pam Long will be expanding the district’s orientation program for freshmen. “We have done some kind of minor ninth-grade orientation, freshman orientation

stuff in the past, but I think Pam is wanting to expand it a bit,” Martin said. The intent for such a program is to help ease students’ transition to the high school operations.

What a horrific rain and wind storm that hit Calhoun on Saturday afternoon. Hardin, Batchtown and Meppen were hit the worst with rainfall, anywhere from 5 to 7 inches in a short period of time. Perhaps you saw videos of rushing water, vehicles not able to drive through and many yards looked like huge swimming pools. Brussels area only got two inches of rain but the wind did a number on the corn fields and trees. The highway department was called out to remove trees, logs, etc. from roadways that were blocked, assisted by the sheriff’s department. Sunday afternoon my son picked up four small trailer loads of limbs and other huge limbs had to be dragged off. Sure don’t want another one like that anytime soon! A combined birthday party for Brantley and Graceyn Heffington was held last weekend at the home of their parents, John and Kelly Heffington in Golden Eagle. Present were their school mates, cousins and family. A water slide, trampoline, hot tub, etc. kept them entertained throughout the afternoon. Later a buffet meal was enjoyed by all, along with Brantley’s cake with a “9” on it and Graceyn’s with a “5.” Among family present were grandparents Bill and Cindy Heffington and great grandparents George and Jean Lesseg. Many more happy ones to both! Alex and Justine Schulte and family, Chad and Melissa Nolte and family, Craig and Pam Friedel and family, Tim and Carol Friedel and family and Everett and Karen Friedel recently spent a week camping at Montauk State Park. They enjoyed a lot of trout fishing, float trips and canoeing, as well as great evenings together. Barb Hanneken and Barb Hagen and great granddaughter Alessa visited on Thursday with Carol Edwards in Grafton. The two Barbs and Carol worked

together for many years in the housekeeping department at Principia College in Elsah. Congratulations to Larry and Mary Kay Wieneke of Hardin who celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary on Saturday, June 12 with a family dinner at Pere Marquette Lodge. Present were their four children Jeff, Jason and Jacob Wieneke and Jessica Droege, along with their spouses and families. Many more happy and especially happy years ahead to them! On Friday, a group of family and friends spent the day at the Knights Action Waterpark in Springfield, Ill. Vince and Elaine Stahl and family, Karen Droege, Amanda Brodbeck, Olivia and “PJ”, Lily Tepen, Kathleen Droege and other family members enjoyed the water park. It was also Kathleen’s birthday. What a great way to celebrate. Many more “happy ones” Kathleen! Emil and Cindy Kuhn and Cody and Ashley Affholder and son Cohen, all of Golden Eagle, enjoyed a week at Okaloosa Island/Fort Walton Beach in Fla. at the Waterscape Resort. Cindy’s sister and family, Susan and Steve Rose and Haley Rose of Golden Eagle and James and Lindsey Tapp and son Lincoln of Maryville met up with them for a wonderful family vacation. Father’s Day dinner guests and visitors of Bob and Anita Nolte on Sunday were Keith and Renee Ballard, Audrey Nolte, Erik and Alexandria Ballard and Wayne and Eadie Nolte. They all enjoyed a great meal and visited afterward. Father’s Day was celebrated at the home of Francis and Liz Toppmeyer on Sunday. A delicious meal of barbecued chicken, along with many sides and desserts were enjoyed by Lisa Heffington, Matt and Emily Kane and Augie, all of Godfrey, John and Julie Carnes and Caleb of Edwardsville and Todd and Jane Mandernach and Wyatt of Marthasville,

Mo., and myself. The Carnes family provided the chicken, which John barbecued and Lisa and Jane brought yummy side dishes and desserts. Many thanks for the invitation, it was all delicious. Father’s Day guests at the home of George and Yvonne Baecht were Keith and Becky Baecht, Matthew and Samuel of Jerseyville, Lynette Eberhardt of Chenoa, Ill., and Daniel and Leann Baecht and son Conner of Springfield, Mo. They all enjoyed a wonderful meal and day together. Father’s Day guests of Roy and Barb Hagen were Lee and Elaine Mans, Kenny and Judy Devening, Mitchell and Paige, Dave and Kara Hagen, Emma, Ryan and Alessa, Derrick and Jan Bick, Cole and Kaela and Scott and Ashley Timmerwilke. Later in the day, Tony Moennig and Judy Peer joined them. Birthday blessings this week to my niece Laura (Kamp) Sparks, Connie Sievers, Irene Wallendorf, Tess Drainer, Liz Toppmeyer, Austin Thompson, Bernice Snyder, Austin Stepanek and all others celebrating their natal day this week. Happy Anniversary to Joe and Tammi Snyders, Tim and Suzie Snyders, Fred and Debbie Kuhn, Greg and Sarah Harding and all other couples celebrating a wedding anniversary this week. –––––––––––––––––––– PRAYER OF THE WEEK With June being a month for weddings, my prayer is for everyone celebrating an anniversary. Blessed are You, O Lord, who gave us the institution of marriage. You knew from the beginning of creation that it was not good for man to be alone, so You then made a woman to be at his side, that together they may honor and glorify Your name in Holy Matrimony. Thank You Lord, that we use our anniversary as a remembrance of Your love and care, Amen.

Illinois officials confirm algal bloom on portions of the Illinois River

Following sampling on the Illinois River, Illinois officials have confirmed the presence of the algal toxin, microcystin, above the 8 parts per billion (ppb) health advisory established by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency collected samples on June 10 along the northern bank of the Illinois River at the Starved Rock Lock & Dam (Illinois River mile 231.1). The Illinois EPA’s laboratory confirmed the microcystin level in the sample at 95.4 ppb, well above the health advisory limit. Illinois EPA proactively sampled again on June 16 for microcystin and awaits the results of the resampling event. Algal toxins (e.g., microcystin and cylindrospermopsin), sometimes produced by blue-green algae, can cause sickness or other adverse health effects in people and pets, depending on the

amount and type of exposure. Illinois EPA also tested for cylindrospermopsin, anatoxin and saxitoxin but did not detect their presence near any level of concern. The very young, elderly and people with compromised immune systems are most at risk of illness if exposed to algal toxins. Adverse health effects attributable to algal toxins can occur from direct skin contact, swallowing contaminated water, or inhaling water droplets in the air. Symptoms of exposure include rashes, hives, diarrhea, vomiting, coughing or wheezing. More severe symptoms may result from longer or greater amounts of exposure. If you are concerned you have symptoms that are a result of exposure to algal toxins, contact your health care provider or call the Illinois Poison Center at 1-800-222-1222. If your pet experiences symptoms that

may be a result of exposure, contact your veterinarian immediately. Residents who plan to recreate in, on, or near Illinois rivers, lakes or streams are advised to avoid contact with water that: Q Looks like spilled, green or blue-green paint. Q Has surface scums, mats, or films. Q Is discolored or has green-colored streaks. Q Has greenish globs suspended in the water below the surface. Do not let pets drink from or swim in water with any of these characteristics. If you or your pet have come into contact with water you suspect may have a bloom of blue-green algae, rinse off with clean, fresh water as soon as possible. Do not let pets lick scum from their fur. With all activities that may involve contact with lake or stream water, wash your hands before eating.

On Having a Humble Opinion of Oneself Rull Brothers Hardin, IL

Jersey Community Hospital 618-498-6402 www.jch.org

“Better to be lowly in spirit along with the oppressed than to share plunder with the proud.” Proverbs 16:19 NIV

ur egos are fragile things. How easy it is to have our egos bruised simply by someone pointing out some flaw that we have. Unfortunately, most of us have plenty of flaws, and if our friends and family members, not to mention our coaches, teachers and coworkers are honest with us, they will sometimes point them out. Instead of getting upset about this, we should really thank them and consider how we might work on these flaws. The truth is, most of our friends and family members don’t know the half of it when it comes to our flaws. Besides the obvious ones, most of us also have hidden flaws that run deep. And even our positive attributes often stem from some

character flaw. I may consider myself a simple man with simple tastes and say that I am frugal when in fact I’m really just a cheapskate. We often make a virtue out of necessity, and all of this is just to say that we ought to have a very humble opinion of ourselves. Thinking that others are better than ourselves, even when they are not, is a good way to avoid having your ego bruised. –Christopher Simon

25 years ago June 26, 1996 The Calhoun High School class of 1971 held their 25-year reunion on Saturday evening, June 22, at the K.C. Hall in Hardin.

A complete resource to Calhoun High School graduates through the years, including 1971, can be found under the alumni tab on the Calhoun Unit 40 webpage. 50 years ago June 24, 1971 Dr. S. Earl Sweeney, a practicing dentist in Hardin for the past 10 years, died at his home Monday evening just before midnight after a long illness. He was 72 years of age and had been in declining health for the past two years.

Dr. Sweeney had continued his dental practice until his health began to fail. Dr. Robert Held of Brussels came to the Sweeney office one day a week for about a year, and recently his nephew, Dr. Sherman Sweeney, has taken over the practice on a near full-time basis. Dr. Sweeney and his wife came to Hardin in 1960 after he had been a dentist in Wellston, Mo., for 48 years. They built the Sweeney Professional Building on Countyroad and French streets, where they lived and which contains the German Insurance Agency, the county health department and offices for the Supt. of Unit 40 James Ringhausen. Surviving Dr. Sweeney are his wife, the former Eva Pontero, a native of Kampsville, three brothers, Irwin of St. Louis, Sherman of St. Jacobs, Il., and Carl of Neosha, Mo., and one sister, Mrs. Margaret Richardson of Miami, Ok., and other relatives. Dr. Sweeney was a member of the Hardin Presbyterian Church and his wife has served as organist there since they came to Hardin. He was also a member of the Clayton, Mo. Shriners and active in that organization’s benevolent work for many years. His military record consisted of serving in the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps. S. Earl Sweeney was born Feb. 15, 1899 at Columbus, In., the son of Sherman and Mary Ellen Smith Sweeney. Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. Thursday in the First Presbyterian Church of Hardin with the pastor, Rev. James O.

75 years ago June 20, 1946 Resuming after four years of war, the Hardin American Legion will hold its annual Fourth of July celebration this year at the American Legion Park at Hardin from July 1 through July 7. The Barlows Shows have been engaged for the occasion, and there will be dancing from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. on the nights of July 3, 4, 6 and 7. Chaw Mank’s Orchestra, George Fries and his band, Bob Gloss and the Music Makers and the Solid Senders have been secured for the dance music. The celebration as sponsored by the Calhoun American Legion Post 636 will be an event which will give opportunity for all returned servicemen and their families to get together. The general public is invited and a good time is promised for all.

100 years ago June 23, 1921 A band of gypsies have visited towns recently in this section of Illinois and before they hit Calhoun County, if they do, the News wants to put our readers next to them. They are traveling in automobiles and they have pulled off some artistic stunts in the way of daylight robbery. At one of the towns not far from Calhoun, one of the gaudily clad young women of the band entered the bank at noon time, when the cashier had gone to dinner, and wanted to tell the fortune of the young lady in charge. She proved to be an adept thief, and got away with $160 before the young lady clerk realized the bank had been robbed. From there they went to another town and one of the women entered the express office and offered to tell the agent’s fortune for nothing. In spite of his protests, she edged in to the side of his desk, took $35 out of a purse without taking the pocketbook out of the agent’s pocket. People in the towns and country in Calhoun should take warning and if the gypsies show up in their locality, keep them moving.

Calhoun News-Herald

Area counties seek new regional development organization By CONNOR ASHLOCK Calhoun News-Herald There’s currently a new plan in the works for Calhoun County, along with several neighboring counties, to form a new regional organization that will better facilitate grant writing and administration for economic development and infrastructural projects. Calhoun, Christian, Greene, Jersey, Macoupin and Montgomery counties are currently engaged with the West Central Development Council (WCDC), an organization based out of Macoupin County that originally served to aid in regional economic growth through grant writing. But, according to Jersey County Board Chairman Don Little, the WCDC is no longer a viable aid in economic development, citing that the organization can no longer write for grants to support economic development projects. Now, regional government and community leaders are seeking the formation of a new organization that will carry out the responsibilities of writing and administering grants. The new 501(c)(3) organization is expected to be formally known as the MidIllinois Regional Planning Council, Inc., and will serve to provide technical support, program planning, grant writing and grant administration services to its member counties in accordance with the comprehensive economic development strategy (CEDS), adopted by those counties through an intergovernmental agreement. “This project has been a work in progress over several years after the realization that West Central was not providing the service for which it was formed, which was project planning, economic development planning, grant writing and grant administration,” Little said.

“That all fell apart with the falsified reports that went up to the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (IDCEO) in relation to the Nutwood Levee District pump replacement grant.” The Nutwood Levee District pump replacement grant provided for approximately $360,000 to aid in the replacement of a pump. “Fraudulent reports were provided by an official associated with West Central in order for them to receive around $24,000 in administrative fees,” Little said. According to Little, the falsified information resulted in the state paying out approximately $18,000 of the $24,000 administrative fees, but when those falsified reports were discovered, Jersey County was informed by the state that it would have to reimburse the $18,000 that the IDCEO paid to WCDC, since the grant was for a project in the county, despite the fact that county officials had no knowledge of the incident. As Little explained, the board demanded from West Central that they pay Jersey County the $18,000, receiving cooperation from the organization. After Jersey County received that money, they utilized it to repay the IDCEO. “Since then, West Central has gotten out of the planning business,” Little said. “They no longer do grant writing and obviously they no longer do grant administration. West Central has admitted they don’t do planning or grant writing anymore, and their simple purpose in life is job services for all the counties except Jersey and Calhoun.” In 2018, following the events with the WCDC, Calhoun and Jersey counties removed themselves from the council’s job service region and transferred to the one utilized by Madison and Bond counties.

Now, the stage is being set for the formation of the Mid-Illinois Regional Planning Council (MIRPC), which will serve to pick up where the WCDC left off, and regional county leaders are hoping that the MIRPC will be an improved and more well-rounded organization, according to Little. The board of directors for the WCDC was composed of county board chairmen from the six constituent counties, but under the proposed MIRPC, the board of directors would be made up of county board chairman, one member from each county that is a member of a noncounty level governing body and various community and civic leaders. It’s also a possibility that individual businesses, including non-profits, could join the MIRPC, which will require payment, but would potentially increase grant opportunities. Such factors are being seriously considered by leaders involved in the planning process in order to expand the base of interest beyond that of county government. According to Little, this format would help weed out the lack of accountability that existed under WCDC leadership. “For instance, two counties had stopped paying their dues to West Central while other counties were still paying their dues,” Little said. “This wasn’t revealed to the board for several years. It was information that was withheld by the director. This, of course, is in addition to the issue of falsified reports.”

Little continued by adding that term limits are being imposed to further bolster organizational accountability, as well as to keep the group refreshed with new ideas and oversight. Little noted that for now, the organization is still in the planning process, with numerous factors such as locating office space, hiring staff and allocating funds being items on the to-do list. “You’ll still have people who know and have learned the lesson of the failing of West Central as a planning agency, so that should serve as an object lesson for this new group,” Little said. After regional county board officials have completed their planning for the proposed organization, which has been largely aided by University of Illinois Extension personnel, it will be presented before each of the six county boards for consideration. “I hope that there will be a document that the board can act on at least by August,” Little said. “I’m fairly confident this county board in Jersey County will participate in this because we participated in the development of the new CEDS document for economic development grants.” Of course, Little expects that board members throughout the region will need some time to digest the material and offer suggestions, but he hopes that an intergovernmental agreement can be reached before the late fall so that work can continue in securing grants for regional development projects.
