Scott T. Clouse 43, of Westfield, died Aug. 17, at Riverview Hospital in Noblesville. He was born Feb. 1, 1972 in Kokomo to Richard & Marilyn (Weaver) Clouse. He married obituary Amy Deimling on March 4, 2000.

Clouse served for 14 years with the Westfield Police Department. Hired as a patrolman, he quickly moved up the ranks to be appointed detective.

“Detective Clouse was committed to serving the citizens of Westfield,” said Westfield Police Chief Clouse Joel Rush. “He was passionate about his job, and he loved life. Detective Clouse will be remembered by our department as a hard worker, a dedicated officer and a friend.”

Through his work as a detective, he taught more than 100 parents and adults on how to prevent child sexual abuse. He also presented the program Smart Steps, a body safety program, to nearly 5,000 children.

Clouse battled lung cancer for more than three years. During that time he was instrumental in raising money for Relay for Life of Westfield-Sheridan. He served as captain and co-captain of his team, Shamrockin’ for a Cure. In 2015, Shamrockin’ for a Cure was able to raise nearly $10,000.

“Detective Clouse brought people together,” Mayor Andy Cook said. “He was able to raise thousands of dollars for Relay for Life just by engaging the community. Westfield lost a great detective, but also a great man who made a lasting impact on those he knew.”

He was a 1990 graduate of Clinton Central High School, where he was vice president of the FFA Chapter, active in the Choralaires Group, played football and wrestled. He graduated in 1994 from Indiana University with a degree in Criminal Justice and later graduated from the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy in Plainfield.

Clouse was a man of faith who enjoyed his family, spending time at the barn, riding motorcycles and showing sheep. Scott’s membership included, Boyleston Baptist Church, Hamilton County FOP #103, Hamilton County Sheep Association, and “HOG” Member, Harley Owners Group.

Survivors include his wife, Amy Clouse, and daughter Isabelle, of Westfield; parents Richard and Marilyn Clouse of Frankfort; brother Darren Clouse of Sheridan; father-in-law Joseph (companion Ellen Hankins) Deimling of Lebanon; grandmother-in-law Pauline Heckman of Zionsville; sister-in-Law Darian (Brent) Ochs of Avon; two brothers-in-law, Matthew (Nikki) Deimling of Indianapolis and Tim Deimling of Lebanon; and several nieces and nephews.

Clouse was preceded in death by his grandparents Dan and Frances (McMullen) Clouse, Harry and Flossie (Kirkpatrick) Weaver and mother in-law Janet Deimling.

Westfield resident to compete in London New Year’s parade

Dr. John Ward

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Guerin Catholic High School junior cheerleader Sarah Downing wasn’t sure about auditioning during the cheerleading Universal Cheerleading Association summer camp for a chance to march in London’s New Year’s Day parade.

Downing, 16, Westfield resident, was attending the camp with her Guerin teammates in July at Anderson University. On the last day of the camp, tryouts were offered.

“At first I was a little nervous because I wasn’t sure what All-American was,” she said.

“But one of my coaches talked about it more and I got more interested and thought I would give it a shot.”

Downing was selected and will be one of more than 650 high school cheerleaders and dancers from around the country who will represent Varsity Spirit.

“I’m really excited to see London’s landmarks and to march in the parade with my fellow All-Americans,” said Downing, of the seven-day stay.

Sarah Downing, a varsity cheerleader for football and basketball, began cheering in fourth grade. (Submitted photo)

“I’m a little nervous, but I know I’ll be welltaken care of by Varsity (Spirit),” she said.

Downing, a varsity cheerleader for football and basketball, began cheering in fourth grade at Saint Maria Goretti School.

Just the top 12 percent of more than 325,000 cheerleaders who attend the 5,000 Varsity summer camp sessions earn the chance. More than 20 countries will be participating.

Low Back Pain Seminar Join Dr. Praveen Perni and Dr. John Ward, board certified and fellowship-trained physicians, as they discuss latest treatment options for low back pain caused by sciatica, a pinched nerve or stenosis. They will present techniques for reducing pain, including injections and surgery. A light dinner will be served.

Police battle drunk driving news@currentinwestfield.com The Hamilton County Traffic Safety Partnership, a consortium of law enforcement agencies in Hamilton public safety County, is participating in the national and statewide 2015 Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement mobilization through Sept. 7.

Officers have joined more than 250 state and local law enforcement agencies, and thousands more across the nation, to conduct high-visibility patrols encouraging drivers against drinking and driving.

“This campaign provides us another opportunity to educate and enforce messages that save the lives of Indiana drivers and passengers,” said Hamilton County Sheriff Mark Bowen. “Driving intoxicated is not only illegal, it’s unsafe and unwise. We will be out in full patrol and if you do drink and drive, you will be caught.”

Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over is an annual enforcement effort supported by federal funding allocated to the Hamilton County Traffic Safety Partnership from the Traffic Safety division of the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, or ICJI. Officers from the Sheriff’s Office, Carmel, Ci-

cero, Fishers, Noblesville and Westfield police departments are working overtime to conduct sobriety patrols and checkpoints around the clock.

According to ICJI, in 2014, there were 94 fatal alcohol-impaired collisions in Indiana.

While this accounted for 13 percent of all fatal crashes, there was a 17 percent decrease in fatal alcohol collisions between 2013 and 2014.

“The decrease in the number of fatal alcohol collisions in Indiana is a clear indication citizens are realizing drinking and driving don’t mix,” said ICJI Director Dave Murtaugh.

“Through the hard work and dedication of all of Indiana’s law enforcement agencies, we continue to work toward our goal of zero intoxicated drivers on our roadways.”

Indiana law enforcement agencies have been actively involved in the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign for more than 20 years.

Supt. Keen: Westfield entering ‘golden decade’

By Navar Watson • news@currentinwestfield.com Dr. Mark Keen has served as superintendent at Westfield Washington Schools for 18 years, but according to him, the best years are still ahead. schools “I believe that the city of Westfield is entering the ‘golden decade,’” Keen said in his State of the Schools address on Aug. 20. “The schools every year get better and better and better.”

Since 1997, the district has jumped from 2,400 to 7,000 students and gained five buildings. Keen noted several other accomplishments at the Westfield Chamber of Commerce luncheon, many pertaining to high test scores.

He pointed out growth on NWEA scores for almost every grade level, with math being the most successful. Students take NWEA assessments at the beginning and end of every year.

The high school also produced “tremendous results” in Ad-

vanced Placement rates, Keen said.

This year 174 students earned an Advanced Placement designation, versus 110 last year. Furthermore, 40 percent more kids

took an AP exam, and the passing rate still increased.

Unlike other schools, Westfield requires AP students to take the AP exams.

“We make everybody take it and still over 80 percent of our kids are passing and getting college credit,” Keen said. “That’s still astonishing to me.”

Keen also outlined his goals for the next five years. The current five-year strategic plan ends after this year. It focused on growth in three areas: NWEA, honors diplomas and AP passing rates.

The goal to see 56 percent of students graduate with honors diplomas has yet to be fulfilled.

By 2020 Keen hopes to see 1,000 more students, 40 more teachers and potential plans for a senior center, which would operate like a college campus.

“I think it’s going to be a better year than we’ve ever had before,” Keen said.

We’re makIng tHe monon a busIer place.

More people are walking, running, biking, and even skipping because of the outstanding care they received at our Franciscan St. Francis Health – Carmel hospital. From short-stay surgical care for spine, orthopedic and sportsrelated injuries to total joint replacement by nationally-recognized, highly skilled surgeons, we’re helping more people enjoy the Monon.

City aims to win millions for economic development in nationwide contest

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com The City of Westfield has gotten one step closer to receiving $3 million.

Westfield has been competing in the America’s Best Communities competition, where cover story they were just recently named as a quarterfinalist with 49 other cities across the nation, beating out more than 350 other communities who originally entered.

Sponsored by Frontier Communications, Dish Network, CoBank and The Weather Channel, the competition is described as an “initiative to stimulate economic revitalization in small towns and cities.”

By advancing to the quarterfinals of the competition, Mayor Cook along with the Downtown Westfield Association accepted a check for $50,000 from Frontier Communications.

The acceptance took place at Bridgewater on Aug. 13, accompanied by dinner and drinks with most of the Westfield celebrities in attendance.

If Westfield wins the competition, the city has said the money will be put towards the creation of Grand Junction and connecting the city’s five trails to make Grand Junction a destination point, similar to Grand Park.

“The Downtown Westfield Association is leading this effort and completing this application,” said Ken Kingshill, executive director of the Downtown Westfield Association. “The Grand Junction project itself is a community revitalization plan, and the whole project was to create an economic development catalyst. The idea was that if we build, they will come.”

Jim Ake, a city councilor and active member of the DWA, said, “We are a city on the move. We are a bold city. We make plans, and we complete them. We have a saying around here that Westfield is the best field.”

Right now, the city says they will use the $50,000 award money to “develop a comprehensive strategy to accelerate the revival of the local economy and improve quality of life,” something that is required of the competition.

The city was also awarded a GoPro camera to document their journey via social media in doing just that. By searching for the hash tag #ABC50, residents of the cities in the competition can see local videos and updates of each community’s efforts.

By Nov. 6, the final “community revitalization plan” must be complete. The plan will address both a short and longterm vision, complete with an 11-month implementation plan, where the city will spell out their plans with a bud-

get of only $100,000.

America’s Best Communities says the $100,000 budget is low, but important, as it is the prize amount semi-finalists will receive after the next round of competition. Finalists in the competition will then be able to restructure and add to their plans using a $3 million budget.

Semi-finalists will be chosen early next year, narrowing the competition down to 15 communities or less.

After that, eight or less will be chosen as finalists in April 2016, and in April 2017, three winners will be chosen with awards of $3 million for first place, $2 million for second and $1 million for third.

Westfield is competing against cities around the coun-

try, and the state. “...How does Westfield do that?” Mayor Andy Cook asked at the event. “We have this intangible thing called community collaboration, and that’s the main reason why Westfield is where it is today – the involvement of our citizens.”

Cook described three major programs with Westfield that brings it up to par with the other cities in the competition, pinpointing those programs as Grand Park, the Westfield Youth Assistance Program and the Grand Junction project.

“The fact is our community has worked very hard to develop these unique programs, and has it paid off? Right now, people are looking at Westfield in a lot different light than 10 years ago,” Cook said.

For more information, visit www.americasbestcommunities.com.

fast facts: • Other communities Westfield has been pitted against in the competition include cities in: Arizona, California, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

• 20 percent of the competition lies within Indiana in the cities of Angola, Greencastle, Jasper, Lafayette, LaPorte, Madison, Richmond, Terre Haute, Wabash and Valparaiso.

Jake Laird golf outing As friends gathered to check in for the golf outing, I was touched by the many awards and medals on display for Jake Laird. His memory lives on through the Jake Laird Fund. (Photos by Amy Pauszek) “Where’s Amy?” … I recently attended the 12th annual Jake Laird Golf Outing on Aug. 21.

Jake had been an IMPD officer for four years when he was shot and killed in the line of duty. Following the loss of their son, Mike and Debbie Laird decided to create something positive and formed a non-profit agency. The Jake Laird Fund is dedicated to providing financial support for police officers and firefighters injured in the line of duty who are experiencing financial hardships. In addition the nonprofit provides funding for special projects and equipment for police and fire agencies. The Jake Laird Fund has donated approximately $400,000 to help others in need throughout Indiana. Each year the Laird family and friends host a golf outing to celebrate Jake’s life. They thought the idea would last a couple of years after their son’s tragic death but they are still amazed at the amount of support they receive each year. The event also included Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard, Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear and U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks (R-Ind.). I attend and experience so many wonderful things for my column, but it is the meaningful events like this that open our hearts to appreciate life and the ones around us. To make a donation or learn more information, visit thejakelairdmemorialtourney.org

Family friend U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks (R-Ind.) attended the golf outing and sat with Mike and Debbie Laird at dinner.

The entire Laird family works hard all year round to make the golf outing run smoothly and be successful. Nephew Andrew Dodson, from left, Debbie Laird, Debbie’s brother Doug Dodson, Son/Brother Gaben Laird take time to pose with Noblesville Mayor Ditslear.

The Crew of Pebble Brook Golf Course worked hard to make sure the golf outing ran smoothly – Thanks to team members Hojo Householder, Karen Lucas, Joey Jenkins, Kim Padgett and Jeff Mays. Hats off to the staff and crew with a huge thanks from the Laird family to Head Pro Craig Brunnemer and Dan Tabeling, assistant golf pro.

Grab a cup with a cop

The Westfield Police Dept. last week held another of its burgeoning Coffee With a Cop events (coverage is elsewhere in this edition).

The idea, and a darned good one at that, is to offer a rare chance for residents to ask local law enforcement questions and learn more about how WPD operates in our city.

Congratulations to the department for making the effort, especially in a time when, nationally in certain locales, there is heightening tension between law enforcement and residents.

••• Thumbs up to Republican presidential hopeful Ben Carson, who last week said he and some fellow party members are “very interested in putting together mechanisms that allow people to climb out of dependency and to become strong parts of the fabric of America.” Wouldn’t that be something?

••• Once Vice President Joe Biden declares his intention to seek the Democratic Party’s nomination for the presidency, all you-know-what is going to break loose in Iowa, where Hillary Clinton has a commanding lead, according to recent polling, and in New Hampshire. That race could reduce Republican hopeful Donald Trump to a sideshow, which many believe he already has become. This also might become President Barack Obama’s chance to and keep himself in the conversation.

••• Current, as a result of Labor Day, will arrive in your mailbox on Sept. 5 instead of Sept. 8.

The U.S. Postal Service is closed on holidays, and Labor Day is Sept. 7, a day on which our papers are sorted for delivery at post offices.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The cool side of the pillow Commentary by Terry Anker It has been a sleepless night – tossing and turning as if the dilemma’s resolution could be found on the cool side of the pillow. What is keeping that much needed (and desired) sweet, deep sleep out of reach? Yes, there is much to do. However, there was much to do yesterday, and the day before, and the day before that one – and yet each delivered a perfect and restful slumber. The mind wonders from one topic to the next without finding a satisfactory place to rest. Thoughts emerge and recede never fully gaining the benefit of consideration.

Soon, dawn is upon us. The sounds of the night are giving way to the industrious early birds beckoning first light. Focus is emerging from unresolved problems dwindling to a few. The digital clock across the room is advancing – at first by the minute, then in groups of ten or so at a time. What will the day bring? Will the resources and

ability to achieve the objective be attained?

If at all, can the problem find a solution?

And if it cannot, does it really matter?

Soon, the house will come to life. The dog will awaken, stretch awkwardly, and nudge me to let him outside. Alarms will sound and school busses will arrive. If only there was time for a second cup of coffee. Just take it along for the drive to the office. On the radio, the weather forecaster predicts the climate in clichéd but comfortable prose. Did the extra hour this morning of silent thought prepare for the challenges ahead or would the benefit have been greater from a bit more REM? At this point, the machinery of life has begun again and we come to it prepared as we are. Happily, another chance for sleep arrives with nightfall.

My husband Doo and I began participating in triathlons last year. We were looking for something new to whip us into shape that wouldn’t require knee replacehumor ment surgery any time soon.

We’ve completed three sprints thus far, and are gunning for an Olympic length tri over Labor Day. If you’re in with the Lord, please send up prayers this Sunday!

I bring this challenge to your attention because in my quest to beat Doo, my formercollegiate-athlete brother-in-law and every middle-aged female on the planet, I’ve found that in addition to actually training, looking the part is equally important. To that end, I stepped up my game this summer by purchasing not only an honest-to-goodness road bike (the hybrid model I used in my first race was so slow I should have just attached a wicker basket and enjoyed a nice ride to market), but also real adult goggles (that don’t fog over after 2.3 seconds and won’t have to be stripped away for the second half of the swim) and a legit cycling outfit (on sale and straight from China). For me at least, appearing to be a capable, competitive athlete really does provide a boost in confidence, and consequently, in my performance.

Plus, if you look like the winners, then even if a pregnant woman pushing a jogging stroller blows past you in the run, you can still pretend it never happened as you roam the post-race celebration, free brew in hand.

The problem arises when people assume you know more than you actually do.

Case in point, I recently fell off my bike and dropped the chain on a very busy riding trail.

I received a few offers of help, but no one actually stopped. I think I looked too dang good! They probably thought I was sprawled in the weeds on purpose, perhaps practicing a therapeutic yoga move. And then I crashed again, less than 10 feet away! This time?

Chirp.

Alas, though I’ve done a decent job of exuding the serious triathlete vibe, I’m really just a gal trying to stay fit without bionics.

Peace out.

Please hold: Cable blues Commentary by Dick Wolfsie “There’s someone at the door,” said my wife, which is never a statement of fact, but rather a request for me to go humor see who it is. Generally, it’s best that Mary Ellen not answer the door. She’s a softy and can’t say no to solicitors, which is why we have 20 years’ worth of garbage bags.

The young man at the door was selling a new cable service. As a creature of habit, I am not inclined to change anything unless something much better comes along … and I say that proudly after 35 years of marriage.

The time was 7:03 p.m. Keegan began by trying to convince me of the benefits of a faster Internet connection.

“How long does it take you to get on the Internet now?” he asked.

“Well, I start upstairs with a beverage, then, with this pesky knee of mine, it takes me a while to get down the stairs to the computer.

By the time I find my glasses, we’re looking at eight to 10 minutes.”

Keegan was on his cell phone, on hold during our entire conversation, trying to get approval from his supervisor for the discount package he presented to me. He explained the advantages of this offer, which meant instead of 240 shows available every hour, we could get 270 – giving us an extra 30 we also had no time to watch. The deal-maker was that he was going to provide us with four DVRs, the devices that record TV programs for future viewing. We only have three TVs, so we’ll just stick one next to the toilet in the half bath.

I bet it will creep out our guests at our next dinner party.

It was now 10:05 p.m. The phone rang and it was yet another cable service wanting to talk about their new promotion, which sounded pretty good, too. “Let me think about that,” I said. “Can I put you on hold for a moment?”

Generally, it’s best that Mary Ellen not answer the door.

The newest addition to Indy Irish Fest this year is Barry “Jazz” Finnegan, an award winning charcoal portrait artist from Dublin. Finnegan will be onsite creating a commemorative piece for the festival during the weekend of activity.

Celtic rock bands Black Irish Texas and the Wild Colonial Bhoys will be featured during the preview pub concert night that Thursday.

I think that was what we wanted to do, celebrate, let people have a good time, and let people experience all the parts of this culture.”

Family activities include sheep-herding exhibitions and the Celtic Canines tent, featuring dogs of Irish breeds. More than 25 vendors selling Irish wares will be included. O’Rourke added that vendors of all price ranges were included for families looking to purchase Irish items on a budget.

Not wanting to sound like a broken record, but every year we need to discuss food safety because each season people are either new to tailgating or others simply forget to be careful. You can be sure that from each game some tailgater will go home to be awakened in the night by all the bad symptoms of food poisoning.

It’s very easy to avoid problems by following our simple SAFE rules.

• Safe Start - buy fresh USDA certified beef, pork, or poultry.

• Safe Prep - cook all hot foods thoroughly (beef and pork: 160 degrees; and poultry parts: 170). Keep hands and cooking/ serving items clean.

• Safe Storage - keep cold foods cold at least at 40 degrees. Use two coolers: one for beverages (opened frequently) and the other for foods that must be kept cold before and after serving.

Since this early part of the season is a time for lighter cold foods, here is a recipe that

Honey Dewdrops come to Carmel

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

A unique performance with a mix of old American music and bluegrass will come to The Warehouse Sept.

Performance 5 in the form of husband and wife duo, Kagey Parrish and Laura Wortman.

Parrish and Wortman are the two parts of the band The Honey Dewdrops.

“We are singer-songwriters who love a lot of old American music, old country music and old bluegrass styles,” Parrish said.

“There’s an old, familiar sound to (our music) coming from traditional American influences but written from our point of view and the world we live in today.”

Parrish said he and Wortman write most of their own music, and about 90 percent of their performance will be original work. He described their music as having local harmonies, with their musical instruments consisting of guitars, a mandolin and a banjo.

The couple started performing music full time in 2009, and while they are not on tour, they live in Baltimore. They’ve been making music together for 12 years after

Westfield company eyes Fishers

#1 A GEN IN C T ARM &W E L ESTF IELD !

news@currentinwestfield.com After more than a decade in Westfield, the 25-year-old Enterprise Marking Products, Inc., a label manufacturer, is business planning a move a half hour southeast to Fishers.

The business current sits at 17450 Tiller Court and is owned by Chris and Carol Fread, with partners in Sony, Du Pont, 3M and more.

During the Fishers City Council meeting on Aug. 17, representatives from the company said they purchase office space at 12840 Ford Drive in Fishers for upwards to $2 million with the intent to hire 20, putting their employee count at 52.

Requesting personal property tax abate-

ments, the company could save nearly $9,000 in its first three years after the potential move.

The Fishers Redevelopment Commission will hear the proposal at their next meeting, which has not yet been scheduled.

Helping your child with loss Commentary by Sean Keller, MD Coping with the loss of a family member or friend is difficult for anyone – especially children and adolescents. For family parents trying to help their children deal with death, the situation becomes even more challenging when the parents themselves are also grieving the loss.

Here are some strategies for helping your child cope: • Let your child know that grieving is OK. Don’t be afraid to let your child see you cry or show emotion, and be sure to let her know that grieving is acceptable.

• Answer questions honestly. Children may have questions about death and dying. Unless there are unusual circumstances, it’s best to answer your child’s questions in an honest, direct, ageappropriate way.

• Offer reassurance. Young children often have “magical thinking.” They may feel their own actions caused the family

member’s death. You may hear things like, “I didn’t listen to Grandpa last week, so that’s why he died.”

• Know the signs. Children often express grief through anger or silence. Teens may be more likely to engage in risky behavior, especially if they were very close to the person who died (parent, best friend).

• Talk openly. Help your child find closure and acceptance by recalling good memories or looking through photos. Young children may benefit from creating artwork about the person who has died.

• Seek help, if needed. If you feel your child (or an adult), is having difficulty moving forward after a death, consult your primary care physician.

Blueprint for Improvement: Updating your ’90s kitchen Before

Commentary by Larry Greene Background Info: This home is located in the Avian Glen Subdivision in Carmel. It was built in 1994 and the kitchen was original to the home. The homeowners have lived there for eight years and were ready for an update.

Before Problems: The cabinets were old thermafoil cabinets that were beginning to peel. The island was too small for the space and countertop would often move in place.

The space was poorly utilized and did not meet the needs of the family.

After

After Solutions: The goal was to achieve a fully functional and beautiful kitchen for a busy family.

1. A large prep island was installed to create room for additional seating.

2. The built-in desk and pantry closet were eliminated to provide room for a more functional cabinet pantry with roll-out drawers. This also provided room for additional countertop space.

3. Pull out wire baskets were installed providing the perfect storage solution for produce.

4. Under cabinet lighting and two large pen-

dant lights were installed to brighten up the space.

5. Granite countertops replaced the outdated and decrepit laminate tops. Solid, black granite with a matte finish was used for the perimeter and lighter granite with ample movement was installed on the island.

6. Personalized city tile backsplash was installed allowing the clients to select tile of the cities where they previously lived.

7. Hardwood flooring was installed throughout the first level creating a continuous flow between the kitchen and the rest of the home.

8. New ceramic tile was installed in the adjacent laundry room and half bathroom completing the flow and new look of the home with the kitchen.

9. The traditional kitchen was energized by adding industrial touches in the backsplash, island seating, and lighting.

Ruins of Deir el-Medina, near Luxor, Egypt (Photo by Don Knebel)

Deir el-Medina’s tomb builders Commentary by Don Knebel

Deir el-Medina is the name given to the ruins of an ancient Egyptian village that housed workers building tombs in the travel Valley of the Kings. Records from the site reveal an ancient economic development strategy.

Contrary to popular beliefs, Egyptian tombs, including the Great Pyramids, were not built by slaves but by workers employed by the government. When Egyptians began entombing pharaohs in the Valley of the Kings, near Luxor, they built a town about two miles away for the tomb builders and their families. The town, originally named The Place of the Truth, was founded in about 1500 B.C. and lasted until interment in the Valley of the Kings ended about 400 years later. At its peak, the town included more than 100 four or five-room stone houses.

At least some of the workers and their wives were literate. Letters written on ostraca and papyrus indicate the work schedule consisted of eight days on and two days off. Workers were given additional days off for festivals and

when they were ill or, on at least one occasion, drunk. During their time off, the workers constructed chapels and tombs for themselves and their families. The government provided the houses, medical care and laundry services.

Wages consisted of food, firewood and other supplies the workers needed, with occasional bonuses of items for religious celebrations and materials for their eventual mummification. The painters, stone masons, carpenters and sculptors received about three times the wages of a field hand. When the skilled workers were dissatisfied with their wages and benefits under Pharaoh Ramses III, they went on strike until their demands were satisfied.

Deir el-Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, includes some of the most finely decorated tombs in Egypt. It also provides an example of a government creating middle class jobs 3,500 years ago.

One of those days?
