2 Trails To Expand

The B&O Trail will add 6.43 miles of paved trail through Brownsburg thanks to the Next Level Trails Grant.

Two of the popular trails in Hendricks County will expand, thanks to the recent round of Next Level Trails Grants.

Gov. Eric J. Holcomb and Indiana Dept. of Natural Resources Director Dan Bortner announed 18 communities and non-profit organizations will recceive a combined $29.6 million for a total of 70 miles of new trail development as part of the second round of the Next Level Trails program. In Hendricks County, two grants were awarded.

The B&O Trails Association (of Hendricks and Marion Counties) will receive $4,583,050 to add 6.43 miles to the existing trail through Brownsburg at both ends and complete an important link with Indianapolis.

The western extension will begin at Tilden trailhead, adding 2.1 miles of paved trail and equestrian-use side path west to C.R. 250 and paving an additional 1.9 miles from Maplewood to C.R. 50 for a total of 4 miles in rural Hendricks County. The eastern extension will run 2.43 miles east from Raceway Road into Marion County where it will connect to a portion of the trail currently under development by the Speedway Trails Association near Girls School Road.

The project includes trailhead facilities in Tilden and Maplewood. The trail is named for the former Baltimore & Ohio (B&O) Railroad. Key partners include Central Indiana Community Foundation, IU West Hospital, Hendricks Regional Health, Indy Gateway, Hendricks County Community Foundation, Hendricks Power Cooperative, and numerous indi- vidual contributors.

The Town of Plainfield’s Vandalia Trail will receive $1,712,000 to extend the existing Vandalia Trail with 2.3 miles of new asphalt trail from its current terminus near Township Line Road in Plainfield east to Raceway Road at the border of Hendricks and Marion counties. The project is part of the statewide National Road Heritage Trail and includes a connection to the Ronald Reagan Parkway multi-use path. Key partners include ADESA Indianapolis and the Plainfield Economic Improvement District.

“Trails have been an important resource for Hoosiers’ physical and mental well-being throughout the pandemic,” Gov. Holcomb said. “These projects are a transformational investment in quality of life for communities across our state and a valuable tool for economic and tourism development. We are creating important connections that take us one step closer to becoming the most trail-friendly state in the country.” ______________________________________________

Does The Public Notice?

The first public notices in Hendricks County were nailed to door of the court house. If you wanted to find what was going on, that’s where you went.

With the with the coming of the first printing press in the county, the newspaper became the place to find public notices.

That first newsaper, The Danville Advertiser, was an ancestor of The Republican, and for over 170 years, that tradition has continued.

“You mean that stuff in the back of the paper with all the small type? Who reads that?” you might be thinking. Yes, that stuff. And you’d be surprised how many people do read it - all of it. People who are interested in what’s going on in their town, township, school corporation, and county government.

There are notices of public meetings, changes in ordinances, from increased fees to lower speed limits. There are notices when government entities are bidding on projects or supplies.

There are notices from plan commissions and boards of zoning appeals. There are notices of the opening of estates, divorce filings, name changes, and other legal matters. The schools will soon be publishing annual performance reports..

There are some legislators who want to take the public notices out of newspapers and place them on government web sites. They believe that government money spent on legal notices are a subsidy for newspapers. Truth is, the money spent on publishing legal notices is not a subsidy, but an important service.

Now imagine coming home from work and wanting to catch up on what’s going on. You could go the the Hendricks County Government website, the websites for the Towns of Amo, Avon, Brownsburg, Clayton, Coatesville, Danville, Lizton, Pittsboro, Plainfield, and Stilesville. How about the 12 townships? And the six school systems?

Or you could sit down and read the newspaper, where you can also find local news, stories and public notices.

There’s no one source for all the news, but local newspapers are the best source for legal notices, the kind of news that can affect you and can keep you informed about what your local government is doing. _________________________________________________________________________

Honoring Lives Lost to COVID-19

To honor those in Hendricks County who have lost their lives during the COVID-19 pandemic, officials representing the towns of Avon, Brownsburg, Danville and Plainfield will come together to host a livestreamed event called “Brighter Together,” a virtual candlelight vigil on Saturday, March 13 at the Avon Town Hall Park, 6570 E US Hwy 36.

Due to the ongoing pandemic, the public is asked to stay home and participate in the ceremony by placing a candle in their windows to show their support. The virtual ceremony will be live-streamed on Facebook at https://www. facebook.com/hendrickscountycommunityfoundation beginning at 7 p.m.

Nearly 350 luminarias will be placed at Avon Town Hall Park to honor every Hendricks County resident who has passed away from the virus.

The agenda for the evening includes a keynote speech by Town of Plainfield Police Chief Jared McKee, comments by Hendricks County Community Foundation President William Rhodehamel, and a moment of silence in honor of the lives lost.

More information about the event can be found at https:// w w w. f a c e b o o k . c o m / events/255407579396512 __________ It were not best that we should all think alike; it is difference of opinion that makes horse races.

Delving Into Yester~Year

Local historian and writer Paul Miner uses items from The Republican’s YesterYear column to develop an interesting, informative and often humorous article.

To the Editor: Danville’s Lew Pounds declared he was “walking on feathers” since his baby girl, Rowena, was born in late February 1896.

I’ve heard of walking on sunshine, eggshells, air, clouds (cloud nine, to be precise), railroad tracks, on stilts, hot coals, water, the moon, tippy toes, nails, wet cement, thin ice, one foot (it’s one of those tree falling in the woods conundrums), pins and needles, and broken glass, but never feathers.

I think Lew farmed southwest of Danville. He had eight siblings and his father was Archibald Price Pounds. I know little about A.P., other than he declared in March 1882 that he had not refused to sign a petition to pardon the fellow who shot at Garfield’s assassin. He never saw the petition and could think of no reason why he’d refuse to sign other than the fellow’s “bad marksmanship.”

A.P. was a Democrat, but that doesn’t help me ferret out what feather walking means.

May I add that A.P. was present in September 1882 when the county’s Democratic Committee put on a show and parade in Danville? One fellow rode two horses going in opposite directions, but that didn’t work out. Another juggled “dangerous edged weapons.”

Around that time, The Republican encouraged correspondents to get their news in early, pad it “and present it in an attractive and spicy form.”

As for feathers, plenty plucking was needed to make any money. A pound was good for a quarter in July 1848 and only a dime more in 1890. In 1889, 194,592 pounds of feathers were plucked in Indiana.

Goose feathers were worth 45 cents a pound in early 1898.

Some took feathers in trade. Dry goods merchant J.M. Robbins, at Crawford’s Building two doors north of the post office, accepted feathers, ginseng, beeswax and rags; racoon, mink and other skins; and timothy, clover and flax seed in trade in November 1847.

Cabinet makers E.D. Young & J. Thompson in 1849 made sofas, tables, chests and coffins and took feathers, wheat, flaxseed, flour, pork, bacon, beeswax and cash.

I calculate 100 pounds of feathers were then worth $25. How many chickens is that?

My reckonings were sidetracked by what I thought was a good deal on McDonald’s chicken nuggets, but I finally discovered a five-pound chicken’s feathers weigh 2.6 ounces, leading me to figure 615 chickens were needed to produce feathers worth $25.

How big is a 100-pound sack of feathers? The parcel industry claims a 15x15x15 box is needed for 10 pounds of feathers. I’d need 10 boxes. I couldn’t stack a sack that big.

I can calculate beeswax, bacon and flaxseed shipping costs if anyone is interested.

Stove maker and tinsmith R.H. Moorhead in 1853 accepted vegetables, meat, flour, poultry, fruit, old copper and pewter, feathers, beeswax and “anything to eat” if buyers were cash-strapped.

Moorhead, who favored rhymed poetry in his advertising, also had sad and dog irons.

Anyone owning one of those is sitting on a cool collectible.

Ostrich feathers and plumes were big-city fashion hat trim in 1881, but I wonder about Danville where folks had cheap chicken feathers handy. Fashionable feather turbans approximated birds on a nest.

Ostrich pompons were worn in the hair. Feathers were patiently glued one at a time on fans.

Millinery trends saw small wolf heads showing teeth and tongues, tiny pistols, metal and feather rooster heads, silver snails, green turtles, lobsters, crab and shrimp.

Partridge feathers covered parasols, but likely shed little water. Ostrich feathers drooped over straw hats, but flowers were better on spring bonnets.

W.J. Meilam and W.H. Zell fitted up the old depot (which one, undisclosed) and launched a feather renovation business late in 1884. The Republican encouraged readers to have “clean beds.”

Danville welcomed the Electric Feather Washer and Mattress Company in October 1899. The outfit “renovated” feathers and manufactured mattresses declared by purchasers to be “the best on the market.”

Electric Feather is long gone, replaced at the corner of Indiana and Marion Streets by the Danville Public Library.

As for walking on feathers, I’ve deduced Lew was extremely pleased, but I’ve no idea whether they were chicken, goose or duck. I don’t think it matters.

Community Grants For Recycling

Each year the Hendricks County Recycling District offers grants to local tax-exempt and not-forprofit organizations that take on projects that further the District’s mission of waste reduction, reuse and recycling. Places of worship, schools, charities and service organizations are encouraged to apply.

Since 2006, the District has awarded nearly $300,000 in grants to organizations here in Hendricks County. Past projects that have been approved include purchasing new recycling receptacles, recycled plastic picnic tables, dinnerware, water bottle refill stations, reusable shopping totes and more.

The District has earmarked $10,000 for the Spring 2021 round of Community Grants Program and applications are now being accepted.

All applications must be received by March 19, 2021; awards will likely be announced by May 1, 2021.

To download a Community Grants Program Guide and application for Spring 2021, visit recyclehendrickscounty.org. For more information about the Community Grants Program, email Lenn Detwiler. ___________

Free vision screenings for children at Little Cadets Preschool at Mill Creek East Elementary in Clayton on Tuesday, March 2nd & Wednesday, March 3rd were provided by members of the Plainfield Lions Club.

Over those two days a total of 28 children were screened. Parents of 2 children will be notified that the screening indicated that their child may have factors indicating a vision disorder and the parents will be strongly advised to make an appointment with an eye care provider.

By correcting vision defects early in life a child is able to more easily learn and achieve more in life as an adult.

Operation KidSight is a program carried out through the volunteer efforts of Lions of Indiana.

Only an eye doctor can diagnose and treat a vision problem, but screenings by Lions volunteers can help identify those children that need to see an eye care provider for a full eye exam. The screenings may pick up the presence of eye disorders including farsightedness and nearsightedness, astigmatism, misaligned eyes, etc. No physical contact is made with the children and no eye drops or medications are used. The information obtained from these screenings is preliminary only, and does not constitute a formal eye exam. Not all vision problems will be detected by the vision screening process.

Any preschool or childcare provider who would be interested in having the Plainfield Lions Club conduct a free vision screening at their facility can contact Tom Iles at 317-600-5193 or via email at t.iles@sbcglobal.net. ______________________________________________

Town of Avon Welcomes New Businesses, Growth

Costco Wholesale at Avon should be open for business by the holidays of 2021. ___________________________________________________

Avon Town Counci: Top Row: Aaron Tevebaugh, Steve Eisenbarth; bottom Row: Greg Zusan, Dawn Lowden (Council President), Robert Pope (Council Vice President)

_______________________________________________________________

By Melissa Gibson The Avon Town Council is making plans to utilize available land and welcome several new businesses with forward-thinking preparation for the future.

Perhaps the most popular addition to the town is Costco Wholesale at the northwest corner of U.S. Highway 36 and County Road 900 East.

Town Manager Ryan

AVON TOWN MANAGER RYAN CANNON

Cannon said Costco is in the final stages of the planning process and hope to break ground in May to be open by Thanksgiving of 2021.

“We’ve heard good feedback about Costco.

They only have two in Indy and have a regional draw.

People are willing to drive to the north or south to get there, so we’re really excited to have them come to Avon,” Cannon said.

Rural King Supply is another highly anticipated new business in the area.

The farm and home store at 7508 Beechwood Centre Road will offer livestock feed, pet food, lawn care supplies and automotive supplies. Catering to the rural farming areas, they also offer supplies for the farm and live chicks and bunnies.

Rural King’s soft opening is March 13 with a grand opening celebration on March 27.

Residents will also see Culver’s arrive on the scene at U.S. Highway 36 where the closed Bob Evans used to sit, though a grand opening date is not set and industrial building are currently being developed in several areas of Avon.

“There are three industrial areas in the works which is good for us as a community because they diversify our tax base. We don’t current-

ly know who is going into those buildings, but are excited to welcome them as well,” Cannon said.

Avon Logistics is coming to the north side of County Road 100 South.

The first building of the first phase is 880,000 square feet and the entire development will eventually become 5 to 6 million square feet as additional phases are met.

Reagan Logistics Park will build on the west side of Ronald Reagan between Country Road 100 South and County Road 200 South. They are purposing 1 million square feet with one building at 700,000 square feet and a second at 300,000 square feet.

Avon Landing is the third anticipated industrial development, located to the north on Ronald Regan between County Road 200 North and County Road 300 North. This property includes a planned unit development (PUD), featuring apartments, small commercial area and six to eight small industrial buildings.

“It’s been more of a shift

HCCF Supports Indiana Agricultural Leadership Program

2021 AgrIInstitute Class

Agricultural and rural leaders across the state rely on the AgrIInstitute to provide leadership development and to prepare leaders to advance agriculture in their communities. The Agricultural Leadership Program (ALP) provides training sessions locally and educational experiences in both Washington D.C. and abroad to agricultural students across the state. The program focuses on education on public policy issues impacting agriculture and leadership skill development.

While tuition is $5,000 per member, the total investment for each participant is approximately $15,000.

Since its beginning, AgrIInstitute has provided this training to nearly 500 individuals.

Hendricks County is home to 17 of the graduates of the ALP. Hendricks County ALP graduates include: David Booher, Sarah Browning, Lynn Campbell, Jerry and Vyanne Chandler, Denise Derrer, Michael Edmondson, Todd Greenwood, David Hardin, Michael Larr, Jamie Price, Vanessa Smith, Hal Truax, David Whicker, David Wyeth, Amy Berg, and Brooke Smith.

To continue growing and developing strong leaders in the agriculture world, the Hendricks County Community Foundation (HCCF) awarded AgrIInstitute $513 from the Hendricks County AgrIInstitute Fund to provide a portion of the funds needed to administer the two-year program. “ALP provides a valuable platform for the adults who are actively engaged in serving agriculture to become better informed and skilled decision-makers and leaders for agriculture locally and nationally,” said Beth Archer, the Executive Director of the AgrIInstitute. “The investment made in this program is one that will have a lasting benefit as these leaders advance the industry that feeds the world.”

The Hendricks County AgrIInstitute Fund is a permanent, designated fund at HCCF that was established in 2010 and grants every year to the organization to support their programs. Designated funds like this one empower people who care about Hendricks County to forever support a charity they believe in. HCCF President and CEO William Rhodehamel expressed the importance of designated funds, “Designated funds like the Hendricks County AgrIInstitute Fund are one of the simplest and most effective ways for donors to invest their money in organizations they love.”

in thinking by the town council,” Cannon said.

“They have taken the approach of we have limited land so we need to use it the best way possible. The town has made substantial capital investments, widening Ronald Reagan Parkway and County Road 100 South is the largest project in the history of the town. These are important because we want to take advantage of the economic opportunities.”

Long term, Cannon said, the industrial developments are exciting because it’s what the town needs. With little office and industrial space to date, the areas will lead to success in good investments for Avon.

“I think the strength of Avon is that we are in the middle,” Cannon said. “We have commercial development along the 36 corridor, and we can attract businesses because we are in the middle. We’re a short distance from Brownsburg, Plainfield, Danville and Indianapolis. Our strength is also a weakness because it gives us limited land for development.”

“The council has hired an economic director, John Taylor and he’s been a driving force behind attracting businesses and connecting them to land. We still have 30 percent of the town undeveloped so there’s more to do, but the council has

done a great job at planning for the future when we are eventually land locked,” Cannon added.

Looking toward that future, Avon has received federal funds to widen Dan Jones Road to four lanes between U.S. Highway 36 and County Road 150 South in 2023 and 2024. A roundabout will be added to County Road 150 South to allow for better traffic flow in the congested area.

Cannon has served the Town as Public Works Director for more than 20 years and was named Town Manger last fall. He’s excited to see what he can bring to the town and continue the growth the council has set forth to accomplish.

“I’m enjoying the position and it’s challenging.

I’m still getting all the pieces in place,” Cannon said.

“We want to hire a communications coordinator to allow us to be more responsive to residents. Tom [Klein] did a fantastic job and I’m hoping to build on what we’ve already done.

Avon is the youngest town in Hendricks County at 25 years, but we’re not the new guy in town anymore.

I’d like to see Avon have more influence in our county and to take things to the next level.”

North Salem

Local & Social Jim and Barbara Oliver visited his sister, Vivian Dillman at the nursing home in Ellettsville, Ind., Friday.

Missed school bus this morning (later learned they didn’t have school today.

Going to have to get their schedule to keep up with them). Did see squirrel on neighbor’s house - jumped to tree across the road and scampering about. Bet Archy would have liked this neighborhood. Still kinda cool sitting on porch waiting for bus.

Special Thank You to all for cards and notes. (They like The Republican Newspaper!).

Time out to have coffee and donut with Dottie, Leann and Bella. Got to visit with Dottie short time with promise to return soon. We could fill a whole newspaper with all our adventures and episodes in our younger days. Dottie is 91, too (will be 92 in August). We had a great time growing up in North Salem. We moved here from Jamestown in 1937 when my Dad was manager of Busenbark Grain and have been friends ever since.

Lots of great memories and friends, classmates along the way. God’s blessing to you, Dottie - I will see you soon! _____ Guess people do take note of my Birthday Listings as hearsay from one: No, Lynda Brackin, I didn’t forget your birthday, just stopped my calendar on March 31.

So Happy Birthday to: Belated wishes to friend Tim Albron in Verna Vista, Florida on March 6. Hope you had a great one.

March 23 - Lise Portwood, Larry Campbell.

March 25 - Special Birthday to Lynda Brackin. Oh, yes, Lynda - I’ll it add it be the big 59th (Karen made me do it!)

March 29 - My little Buddy, Blake Basham’s 8th birthday. He has already put in that he now likes Pokemon. Told him to save his money for the Lamborghini he wants!

March 29 - Bob Dinsmore’s birthday in Heaven.

March 30 Shelly & Kelly Buckingham, 41st birthday. Both former softball players of mine. Now a mother and teacher, they did survive our past days!

Also with all those who loved Betty Weesner - it has been five years since Betty went to Heaven. Loved you, Betty. _____

Just a Friday - Saturday update on food: Veggie soup and cherry pie from Gene McCullough.

Chicken salad from Linda Chaney. Bacon and tomatoes for sandwiches from Phyllis Pearcy (also donuts). Homemade cookies from Barb and Jim Oliver.

So yes, this is a wonderful neighborhood to live in. _____ Sympathy The Celebration of Life service for Robert “Levi” Watkins took place Saturday, March 6, at the Eel River Township Community Center in North Salem.

It was very well attended, a great tribute to a young man.

Calling for Mike Selch was Sunday at the Pittsboro Funeral Home. Mike was such a loved and active person at North Salem. Our sympathy to Betty and all the family.

Birthday Note Received a nice birthday card and note from Bob Palma in Brownsburg. Here is a part of it: “My wife and I thoroughly enjoy your column every week; never did know how far back you were doing it...to 1959 - wow, that’s some tenure! No wonder you do such a great job and know everyone in town.

The only North Salem resident we now know is Larry Lynch, since Steve Clark and his wife moved to Danville. Larry and I go ‘way back to working at Howard W. Sams / Bobbs-Merrill Publishing together in Indianapolis in the 1970’s. He’s a good friend. In fact, when I was getting my Indiana Real Estate Brokers License in the 1970’s, Larry’s House on S. McKinley Street was the first house I ever sold... and to Larry, so he’s been there a long time. ... Keep up your interesting reports of all things North Salem: Yours, Paul Miner’s and the Obituaries (!) are interesting reads every week.”

Bob says he’s a columnist himself for the national collector - car magazine, Hemmings Classic Car. He sent along one of his columns for me to read.

Talk about connections - he said he worked at Bobbs-Merrill Publishing Co., Indianapolis, in the 1970’s. Between junior and senior years, I worked at Bobbs-Merrill office in Indianapolis. Loved it - a long way to go for a 17-year-old back then!

Thanks Bob, for the card and letter! A great birthday gift! __________ There is no better exercise for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.

Maple Syrup Days Continues at McCloud Nature Park

Visitors to McCloud’s Maple Syrup can try their hand at drilling tap holes to start the process of gathering sap to be turned into syrup.

On Saturday, March 13, McCloud Nature Park, 8518 Hughes Rd., North Salem, will continue Maple Syrup Days. Guests can watch the process of making maple syrup from tapping the tree, to the modern evaporator, to the bottle you pour on your pancakes in the morning.

A guided tour will be provided at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. but families can walk through the tour self-guided between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. if they wish.

Throughout the tour, a scavenger hunt (picked up at the Nature Center) will lead individuals on a half-mile hike, with stops at stations educating visitors on the process of syrup production.

Children can enjoy a story along the trail provided by a Curious George book on maple syrup and crafts will be offered at the Nature Center to take home and continue the discussion.

Guided tours may be limited based on the numbers interested, but with six and a half miles of trails and plenty of activities, social distancing will be easier. Masks are required inside the Nature Center and in the restrooms but not outside if groups can safely distance.

Dress for the weather - boots or waterproof footwear and layers are recommended.

Garden Club To Hear About Federal Election History The Hendricks County Garden Club is pleased to welcome our own Barbara Stauch as she introduces us to her historical review of U.S. federal elections.

While we will not be discussing the most current election, Barbara tells us that there is much to learn BARBARA STAUCH from considering the elections of the past. She’ll share interesting and sometimes contentious issues from our history of federal elections.

With her degree in historic research from Butler University, Barbara has a unique talent for digging up the realities of the past. She’ll reveal interesting tidbits about the First Ladies as well. For example, do you know why John Quincy Adams’ wife Louisa was so upset with Andrew Jackson?

A native of Hendricks County, and a member of the Merritt family of early pioneers in the area, Barbara Stauch has dedicated her life to educating others. Whether teaching history and social studies during her 25-year tenure at Brownsburg High School, or teaching gardeners and floral arrangers how to improve their craft, Barbara is an engaging and knowledgeable educator. (Fun fact: Barbara’s ancestor, William Merritt is listed as a voter in the polling books for the first general election held in the county on August 7, 1826.)

As garden club members, we are dedicated to not only beautifying our community, but to being well-informed, involved citizens. We’re looking forward to learning from Barbara.

The free virtual meeting takes place on Wednesday, March 24, from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. To register, send an e-mail to seoyder@hotmail.com or call 317-908-1905.

This is a casual, free event, but you must pre-register to participate. You don’t have to live in Hendricks County Indiana to participate - everyone is welcome. We will use the virtual meeting software, ZOOM. You don’t need special software to participate, just a computer or phone. Join us on camera, or simply with audio. Once you register, you’ll receive a link and password to participate!

In these times of physical distancing, the Hendricks County Garden Club is committed to eliminating social isolation. Please join us! _____________________________________________

A Girl’s Year Interrupted

By Elshadai Aberra

“Weather” or Not I looked out at the snow piling up outside my window and tried to recall what the winter forecast had been back in the fall. Was it supposed to be a colder than normal, snowy winter or mild and dry? Were the Woolly Bear caterpillars extra dark this year? Did the oak trees hold on to their leaves? Were the corn husks and onion skins thicker than usual?

Since Biblical times (and before), people used proverbs to predict the coming weather patterns: “He answered and said unto them, when it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red….” (Matt 16:2-3). A lot of people pooh-pooh weather proverbs as superstition, but it turns out several of our sayings have some scientific basis.

Several adages deal with animals and their behaviors prior to a change in weather conditions. Scientists know animals are more sensitive to changes in barometric pressure and humidity than humans and may react accordingly.

Cattle feel the drop in pressure and lay down on the side of a hill. Before meteorologists were around to tell us a storm was coming, our ancestors would notice that when the cows lay down, it rains. The next time the cattle decided to lounge on the side of a hill, they were “predicting” a coming storm. A few other sayings that have scientific support include: “If the goose honks high, fair weather. If the goose honks low, foul weather.” High barometric pressure indicates clear weather; low barometric pressure means rain and storms. Geese fly where the air density is best: higher in the sky when the pressure is high; lower when the pressure is low.

“When the ass begins to bray, surely rain will come that day.” Lower air pressure makes animals more active or irritable. Donkeys bray; dogs bark; even some humans feel grumpy when the pressure drops. (I know several folks who complain of headaches or achy joints when bad weather is coming.)

“If spiders are many and spinning their webs, the spell will soon be very dry.” Spiders’ webs absorb water, making them heavier and more apt to break. If it’s going to be wet, spiders stay in their hidey-hole and wait until the humidity is lower, then they spin webs.

Plant conditions were another means of “seeing” humidity and barometric pressure changes and “forecasting” weather trends.

“When dew is on the grass, rain will never come to pass.” The reasoning behind this adage has something to do with dew points and heat escaping and dispersing. I couldn’t quite understand the scientific explanation well enough to clearly explain it to someone else, but dewy grass is a sign of good weather. The jury is still out on the proverb, “Leaves turn upside down before a rain.” One “expert” said it is because the humidity changes rapidly before a storm, making the leaves limp and allowing the winds preceding the storm to flip them over. Another “expert” says nope, it’s just a breeze blowing them around. I don’t care- if the leaves flip, I’m grabbing an umbrella!

My grandmother was full of folk wisdom. A few of her favorite sayings were, “Six weeks after the Goldenrod blooms, expect frost.” It tends to work out that way.

Goldenrod usually blooms in mid to late August and we can usually expect frost sometime in October.

“The frogs croak three times under ice before Spring arrives.” That means after the frogs start coming out during the first breath of Spring, don’t get too excited. It’s going to be cold at least three more times. If you’ve lived in Indiana for more than a few years, you know that’s true.

“If the oak trees don’t lose all their leaves in autumn, it’s going to be a hard winter.” The trees “hold on” to some of their leaves so the squirrels can refurbish their nests mid-winter. It made sense to me. The funny thing is, Science isn’t certain why some trees don’t lose all their leaves.

“Weather” or not you believe the old-timers’ adages, you might find yourself watching the cows and leaves a little bit closer from now on. ______________________________________________

COVID-19. I remember it like it was yesterday… waitit was yesterday, and today, and what feels like is lasting forever.

A year since March 13, Avon was the first school district in the entire state to close due to COVID and we were told we’d return April 7 after two weeks of e-learning and another two weeks of spring break. They were wrong.

Next, we were told that we would return in May after the nationwide lockdown. They were wrong yet again. The second half of my junior then torn away from me, prom and a proper graduation torn away from the Class of 2020.

Yes, in the moment it all was disconcerting. I hated attending classes over Zoom, I wish I had went to prom, I wish I could’ve watched my friends graduate, I wish that– the list goes on, not just for me yet for everyone, as COVID, for lack of better terms, sucked. What I wish most of all, however, is that I took the pandemic seriously. I wish everyone took it seriously, or at least as seriously as most of us take it now. Honestly, quarantined life wasn’t so bad, I honestly wouldn’t have minded it lasting longer for a chance at normalcy.

Looking back, I remember masks being optional at grocery stories, more people on bikes and runs than I’d ever seen in my life, and families oddly going on walks around the neighborhood together. I remember a multiplex of trends going viral on social media platforms, celebrities ridiculously posting random videos of themselves or collaborations of them singing– it was a different life, a life most complained about due to how foreign it felt. But sometimes foreignness is beneficial and can open one’s eyes to what they need to change. Many, such as myself, discovered the mental illnesses they had kept hidden from themselves and finally sought help, others started exercising more and practicing self-care, most took up new hobbies, some dropped friends from their lives while others gained new ones, and some discovered the significance of sanitization and cleanliness. Yet what everyone seems to ignore, as devastating as it is, is the number of lives that were lost. The lives lost due to our deadly ignorance and defiance of a disease that overpowered us. Not the government, as some would say– yet a virus.

If we approached the pandemic the way we’ve learned to approach it now, I’m certain we wouldn’t be where we are today. With 2.56 million dead worldwide and 116 million infected at least once. Or from a simpler standpoint, I wouldn’t be typing this in a booth socially distanced from the one a booth away from me at a Panera, wearing a mask that honestly is not that comfortable.

Now, keep in mind that this isn’t me pointing fingers whatsoever (though some people are definitely a little more to blame for COVID’s spread than others). Transparently speaking, I was that idiot that couldn’t keep my mask above my nose at Walmart, the one complaining about having to stay indoors, or crying that I couldn’t get Chick-fil-A whenever I wanted, but I’ve changed now, and I think a lot of us have.

Honestly, this is just me wishing that I, along with the rest of the world, had been cognizant enough to take the pandemic more seriously a year ago and not when it was too late. I wish our society had not mindlessly believed that the Corona virus would end in two weeks when it’s now been a year and counting.

A Squirrel About Town

By Archy “Of course, the majority of our genetic memory is passed down through our mothers,” Archy said. “The female of most species are generally more observant.”

I had asked Archy if squirrels celebrated Women’s History Month.

“I remember my several-great grandmother witnessed the arrival of the college in Danville in 1878,” the squirrel continued. “It was quite the event and the squirrels had the best seats in the trees to watch the parade. She remembered the carriage at the head of the caravan carrying the schools’ founder, William French Harper, and a woman of striking appearance and regal bearing.”

“CeDora Lieuellen,” I said.

“None other,” the squirrel said. “We squirrels admired her independence and intellect. In fact, several of my family moved to the trees at Lieuellen Cottage, as it was called, on North Wayne street to observe her. She did all landscaping herself and put up the first squirrel feeder in town. Wore trousers when she worked, you know. Practicality incarnate. She would have students over for discussions and lessons in rhetoric,” Archy said, calling up the image of the students lounging in the well-kept yard. “She had an interesting theory on teaching history as well. And you should have heard her recite her poetry parodies. We still discuss some of her ideas at the squirrel salon.”

I was a bit jealous of Archy’s historical connection to this fascinating woman.

“Of course,” he went on, “Many believe that she had an influence on other segments of this town, too. That’s why Danville has the reputation of having highly intellectual squirrels.”

If only her influence was still as strong on the present generation of people, I thought to myself.

“Who says it isn’t?” Archy replied to my thoughts. ______________________________________________

Should We Care About ‘Space Traffic’ Congestion?

Did Grampa Care About ‘Air Traffic’ Congestion?

When you hear the word, “traffic,” what emotions are emoted? Do you think of only car traffic? Or air traffic?

We better start including space traffic…

Last July, three rockets from three different countries launched toward Mars — all within two weeks of each other. This was not a competition (?) but there was a small window of opportunity. Mars and Earth are only on the same side of the Sun every 26 months (I’m talking about earth months). If you miss this window, you will have to wait another two years to launch (i.e., earth years). Apparently, we have to see Mars when we launch. Makes sense — how else would we know where to point the rocket?

Space traffic is indeed becoming a concern. Space traffic includes launch vehicles, satellites, space debris, and of course, The International Space Station (TISS). Granted, there is only one space station (1SS) operating at present, but there about a dozen defunct space stations. Most of these disintegrated into a million pieces (an approximation) when they re-entered the atmosphere (now you know what your dog found).

Satellites, however, number around 6000! Only about half of these are currently active. But very soon, probably Tuesday, major companies including Amazon and Elon Musk, plan to add more than 50,000 additional satellites (that’s not a typo). This will make it very tricky to get to the moon (or even see the moon). And then there’s space debris (you can probably imagine what that entails)...

There’s urgent need to establish ground rules for space traffic. And because ground rules don’t apply to space traffic, we are talking about something that doesn’t exist. Who would ever imagine that “outer space” could get crowded?

It wasn’t that long ago we had a similar attitude toward airspace. But planes and jets and drones (and geese) have changed all that.

The accelerated growth of the satellite population requires worldwide cooperation. There are valid concerns about satellite collisions. As the number of satellites increase, the potential for collision increase. Creating even more debris which in turn increases the likelihood of more collisions. Some debris remains in orbit and some debris disintegrates in the earth’s atmosphere. And since an orbital collision can occur at speeds up to 30,000 mph — you can understand how debris could result. “Fido, put that down!” _____________________________________________

Branch Trimming Tips and Tricks

Our Readers Write

By Colletta Kosiba Hendricks County Master Gardener You saw a branch that needs to come off your tree, the weather is milder.

A few tips: First do not engage in tree topping. Tree topping is when the top main branches of a tree are cut back all the way to the trunk. People think this is the best way to keep branches from falling on the house during a storm. Tree topping severely damages the tree. The main branches may grow in again, but if they do, they will be much weaker. They are now vulnerable to damage or being destroyed in storms. (to see what the trees look like when topped- go south of 36 onto Stafford Rd- there are several blocks of trees to view. An arborist would not do this.

Once you cut the branch to the tree collar it will not grow back. the tree can grow new branches from buds near the site: these are new branches.

the right tools, make sure they are in operating condition, and know how to use them.

“It’s March”

It’s March. It’s Indiana. That means it’s basketball time. There are “watch” parties planned in homes, although the groups are small and strictly limited. No longer are living rooms crowded with a large number of screaming partisans who could not get tickets to the “Big Game” and who had to settle for watching on TV. This year no one is loudly complaining because they could get a ticket to actually BE at the game. Because this year there will be very few in the stands. All the excitement will be inside the homes. But there will be excitement. And cheers. And fans leaping up and screaming, “Did you SEE that!?!” It’s March. It’s Indiana. It’s basketball. So there will be excitement. And cheers. And, sometimes, disappointment.

But this is nothing compared to the electric atmosphere in Danville in the 1930’s, 40’s, and 50’s. Then, the town was full to overflowing and the search for a parking spot around the square was similar to trying to find a space in the Walmart parking lot at Christmas. For some people this was about the only time they visited the county seat.

For others, this was familiar territory, but an unfamiliar situation. Usually Danville was tranquil - you might even say, “sleepy.” The pace was slow. The stores no so busy that customers could not stop to talk and joke. Not at Tourney Time.

At Tourney Time, people were in a hurry to get back to “The College Gym” so they did not miss a minute of the action. And there was action. And not always inside the gym where high school boys were defending the honor of their home community.

Ok- so on with your project. Proceed with caution! Remember cut only into the branch wood.

Do this carefully. Remember it takes two cuts to remove the branch. The first cut controls the weight of the limb and prevents tearing of the bark, the cut is done on the underside of limb about a third of the way into branch.

The second cut is made closer to the trunk to remove the limb. Do not make this cut any closer than the branch collar - 1 foot out from collar is safe. Now, the limb comes off without ripping the bark from the trunk of the tree.

You can make a third cut to trim branch to the tree collar so looks nice. Good Job. While you are out there: Look for any suckers.

Suckers come up from around the tree: remove them, they rob nutrients and water from the tree.

Remove “water spouts” the growth that grows straight up from an outwardly extended branch, (you see these mostly on “Water spouts” need to be reflowering or fruit trees). moved.

Last but not least, have someone hold the ladder, be careful with power equipment. It is great to have someone to hand you the saw and just be there with you for safety.

“Good things come in trees.” Colletta There always was a crowd milling around on the sidewalk outside the gym. Some people were trying desperately to get a ticket to see “their” team play. It was almost a bidding war to try to obtain that priceless piece of admission. And those (do not know whether to call them “unfortunate,” because their team had lost and was now out of the tourney, or “fortunate” because they now had a chance to make some money) who were going home early.

There was also a group who were taking a break form the action and were having a smoke - in fact there often was almost a cloud of smoke hovering over the front of the gym.

I will not mention the few who gathered in the alley beside the gym to share a little “liquid refreshment.” They were usually quite and trying to be discreet - after all there always were women in the crowd in front of the gym, and a mob of teenagers and younger children as well.

Once in a while voices were raised in anger as emotion ran high. After all, the tourney winner not only got a trophy to take home, but his whole community got “bragging rights” for almost a year. Those 15-16-17 year old boys carried a lot of responsibility. Winning was important.

Most of he smaller schools did not have football teams, so basketball was IT. The basketball team was the pride of each town and the game was serious business. Particularly at Tourney Time. Not only was it important to the students, but being at the game was important to community members. So, getting a ticket was serious business.

The College Gym in Danville was the largest in the county at that time. But there was no way all the fans from the 12 county teams could crowd inside at one time.

Hence the scramble for a ticket.

And inside the gym it was fierce. Each school had a vocal cheer block of students. And an even more vocal one - the cheers were not as organized - of adults. It was mayhem. It was LOUD. And even if your team was not playing in that particular game, you chose a side and yelled. (“Anybody but Danville,” was always a popular choice.)

The top row beneath the open windows was were the rowdiest fans gathered. The view was good. The conditions not so good. You see, that is where the radiators were localed. And to keep the temperature on the playing court comfortable, the radiators ran at full blast. Temperature on the top row was above 90° while the boys down on the court were playing at a chilly 65°. To keep the top row fans from having a heat stroke, all the windows were open. Environmentalists would have a field day with that!

The situation of having the radiators running at full speed while the windows are wide open was a perfect example of choosing between heat stroke and frost bite. Plus, there was enough condensation on the windows to look like it was raining outside.

Down on the court, cheerleaders and team members were deadly serious. It did not matter if the team had a losing season. Every teen-ager in that gym - and most adults, too - was sure that their team would be Sectional Champs.

Some things still have not changed. The location is different the crowd is smaller. There certainly are fewer schools, thanks to consolidation. But after all, it is still March. It is still Indiana. And it is still basketball.

The Idiom Challenge

SUDOKU SOLUTION

Idioms aren’t an American invention. Here a couple more examples of expressions from other countries: Russian: “Hang noodles on someone’s ears” This to BS someone.

Italian: “A dog in church.” This refers to an unwanted guest. “He’s like a dog in church. Can’t get him to leave my house.”

[Got a favorite idiom? Send it to us and we’ll try to “spread the word.” Just email to betty@TheRepublicanNewspaper.com, put in the mail to P.O. Box 149, Danville, IN 46122, or give us a call at 317-745-2777.

A couple of weeks ago I saw a notice in The Republican that a coloring group met the first Wednesday of the month at The Gallery on the Square from 10-12. The last time I colored was probably with my granddaughters 20 years ago. I know a lot of people buy adult coloring books in which to color. I decided I would like to try it. There is a $5.00 charge which is donated to the gallery . There are many coloring books to choose from and colored pencils are provided. The group consisted of about 6 ladies who were all very friendly and welcoming. When you color you can talk, which I really like. I found that I had two hours when I didn’t have to think about covid, politics, and so many other unpleasant things. I could have bought a coloring book and pencils and colored at home but I would not have met six possible new friends. I’ve already signed up for April and May. A person needs to sign up. Telephone # 317-386-3111. I am going to ask family members to put my coloring pages on their fridge since I did that for them.

Can Your Family Escape?

It is that time of year again when we spring forward into daylight savings time. Not only do we change the time on all our clocks, but we are reminded to check the smoke detectors in the home. As a home inspector we will test the operation of the smoke detector only to find the battery has been removed, the device does not work, or the test alarm causes the batteries energy level to go low enough the warning beeping begins. Rather than being awaken in the middle of the night to hunt for the chirping sound, replace the battery while you are wide awake, and ladder in hand.

Besides making sure all the smoke alarms are properly placed (at least one outside the sleeping rooms and on each level of the home) and functioning, your family needs an escape plan. Make sure everyone knows how to leave the home in the event of a fire. The National Fire Protection Association’s (nafp.org) has an article on “How to Make a Home Fire Escape Plan” giving you detailed instructions on putting a plan together for your family. The very first thing to do is involve everyone family member in making the plan so everybody understands the importance of getting out and staying out. A meeting place should be designated so you know everybody has made it out. There should be two paths of exit, which brings me to the egress window.

When the home was built the code required every sleeping room have an egress window. This is a window when opened is at least 20 inches wide, 24 inches high and no further than 44 inches off the floor (simplified definition). Many homes have either been modified, putting bedrooms in basements, or not maintained with windows that properly open. Along with checking those batteries in the smoke detectors, take the time to open and close the windows in each bedroom. Can the child occupying the room open the window, remove the screen, and climb out?

If not, someone will need to be assigned to assist in the event of a fire?

A basement egress window needs a window well having a landing of at least 3 feet by 3 feet. If the window well is deeper than 44 inches, it must have a ladder to assist in escaping. These wells then may be equipped with a cover to prevent someone from falling in. If that is the case, can it be opened easily from the underneath side? Checking every escape path to assure there is a clear path to exit the home could save a life in an emergency.

Spring is coming, we cannot wait to get outside. Let us make sure everyone can make it out! Especially in an emergency. ______________________________________________

A Fishy Story My parents took us on a week vacation to the Dale Hollow Reservoir during my 10th year. They had rented a cabin with a boat. My Dad, brother Ron, and I loved to fish and catching stripe bass on this lake was exciting.

You would motor down the lake slowly looking for a disturbance on the surface of the lake along the shore. This was caused by a large school of shade minnows. When you spotted one, you cut the motor and quietly cruised into the disturbance and cast a silver spoon bait right into it You would usually catch 2 or 3 then they would move on.

It was on the third night of our trip that a funny thing happened. It was about 10 p.m. and I realized I had left something in the boat, probably my flashlight. I went down to the dock and went to our boat, climbed in and started looking. It just happened that there was a light on the dock down low, almost to the water, to help people see where they were going. There were lots of bugs and I noticed, occasionally, a fish would come up and catch a bug. I remembered that we had 5 or 6 minnows leftover in the minnow bucket, so I put one my pole and dropped it in the water. I bobbed it up and down and, wham, a fish.

Wow, that was cool. I tried another and caught another fish. Soon I was out of bait. I took the fish up to the cabin and Dad cleaned them. Everyone was excited.

The next night, about 10 p.m., I wandered down to the dock with a few minnows. Guess what? There must have been 25 people all over the dock fishing. I couldn’t even get on the dock. Guess word travels fast sometimes. I didn’t care. It was fun.

NicView System Connects Babies & Parents

Occasionally newborns need an extended stay in Hendricks Regional Health’s level two Special Care Nursery (SCN) for specialized care or extra monitoring, but their parents are unable to remain by their sides. This may be due to distance, employment or to care for other children and loved ones. Leaving a baby, even in the hands of caring healthcare professionals, can be an extremely emotional and anxious decision.

In 2019, the Hendricks Regional Health Foundation asked for support through the Associate Campaign to help purchase a web-based camera system that would provide a way for parents to watch their SCN babies around the clock. Associates and physicians rose to the occasion and raised enough money to buy six NicView cameras. The COVID-19 pandemic delayed the system’s arrival to August 2020.

Look, then, into thine heart, and write!

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

“We were anxious for it to come,” said Clevette Price, Director of the Childbirth Center (CBC). “It is really hard on parents when their newborn is admitted into the SCN right after birth and they can’t bond with their baby right away.”

Parents previously were given iPads so they could check on their babies in the SCN. However, the iPads could only be used by the baby’s parents and could not be taken outside the CBC. The NicView camera system eliminated those limitations.

“One couple’s baby was here for a few weeks,” said Clevette. “They were so happy to have the NicView cameras. They hooked up a connection to their TV at home.

They loved having this option while they couldn’t physically be with their baby.”

To date, the new camera system has been accessed well over 2,000 times from logins across the nation.

“The NicView system is one example of how the Foundation’s Associate Campaign has advanced the compassionate care we are able to give to patients,” said HRH President & CEO Kevin Speer. “Giving to the Foundation in this way enables HRH to enhance patient programs and services we wouldn’t otherwise be able to do. I’m very proud to see our associates working together to benefit our community in such an important way.”

Over the years, associate donations to the HRH Foundation have funded more than $550,000 in projects that improve patient care, comfort, and safety at HRH.

Our Readers Write Dear Editor: The Danville Town Plan Commission & Council face nearly five decades of delay in building a bypass or widening 36 west of Kroger in the proposed annexation of Miles Farms west of Mackey Road, north side of 36. (I live just east of Miles Farms.)

Miles Farms is to be turned in to nearly 400 acres of 1500 homes & apartment units across from Clear Creek & the high school. Problem: 90 percent or so of those leaving the subdivision will turn left or east (there is no north south road to speak of), unlike those leaving Clear Creek, who mostly turn right. Turning left can be lethal, & is 10 times harder than turning right. Ask any driver ed student.

Two lanes of 36 are not enough to handle new traffic loads the subdivision promises.

Common sense tells us you build road capacity before increasing population, sort of like letting those leaving an elevator get out before entrants get in. Expansion or diversion of U.S. 36 falls to The Indiana Department of Transportation and Indiana Highway Commission, who offered in the 1970’s to build a bypass for free. We turned them down. (Now the cost of land acquisition to widen lanes or bypass what we have doubtless has ballooned a great deal.)

Unless we are willing to put in three stop lights and let this new subdivision flounder on its own, the prudent course is plain. Begin prodding the state to spend millions to expand 36 or bypass this area altogether before approving a subdivision that will yield another 2,000 or so vehicles in garages proposed to be built across from Dave’s All American Pizza.

The propensity for congestion is obvious: Miles Farms is just north of the High School, a half mile north of South Elementary & The Middle School. And all this is to say nothing of the impact on road maintenance & water & sewer infrastructure. I urge delay here until traffic concerns are put to rest.

Sincerely, Greg Black

Animal Rehab: Saving One Critter at a Time

Photo courtesy of Paws, Wings and Other Things

By Melissa Gibson Kat Craft of Martinsville has always loved animals.

From a young age she read every book and watched every movie or documentary on animals she could.

“Birds were my first passion and I always donated to rehabbers because they don’t get paid. I had retired and was really bored and received a newsletter from a rehab organization and the first thing it said was, ‘We need more of us’,” Craft said.

She set to work; training for a year, taking a test and having her house inspected for animal care and more.

“I always assumed that everybody knew about animals like I did, but that’s not the case,” Craft said. “I’m an empath and I feel their emotions as much as they feel mine.

They know I’m not a threat and want to help.”

For most of us, when we find a wounded bird or abandoned baby animal in our yard, we too, want to help but the animals don’t sense that. It frightens them.

Crafts says it’s very simple: place the animal in a box with an old towel or blanket. Keep them in a dark, warm area and keep the area quiet. Then call a rehabber.

She’s careful to warn that Googling the animal for suggestions can lead to death of the wildlife and an expert is always your best bet.

“You’re stressing them,” Craft said. “Their hearts are racing and adrenaline is pumping. For birds and bunnies, it can literally cause them to drop dead. Don’t try to feed them or give them water, don’t carry them around or pet them, don’t love on them.”

She often has animals dropped off to her, but if the fam-

ily has been carrying them around for an hour, it could be too late to save them.

“The touching and talking is the worse things people can do to wildlife. They don’t communicate that way.

Imagine if a gorilla came and picked you up and was cooing and growling. Their mom told them people are really bad, so though you are being loving, they’re just wondering when you’re going to eat them. To them, we’re the predators,” Craft said.

She took in over 1,000 animals last year and has several safe release sites for the animals across the state. Though she loves the animals, Craft takes special care not to handle them unless absolutely necessary. If they can feed themselves, it’s better for them in the long run.

“When I release them, they don’t want anything to do with me. That is how it should be. I’m teaching them to run away from humans, I keep them with their own species and I teach them to forage for their food and how to survive in the wild,” Craft said.

She teaches them about natural diets in the wild, and as they get older, stops feeding them out of food bowls.

Raccoons for example, fish for their meal. Once they can fish for their own meal, Craft knows she has taught them right and they’ll be able to feed themselves.

“If you give them marshmallows and Cheerios, they won’t be able to find those in the woods. They’ll most likely starve or walk right up to a predator,” Craft said.

The rehabber moved from Marion County, which doesn’t allow for rehabs due to zoning restrictions, to Morgan County so she could better serve the wildlife.

The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has a list of rehabbers in Indiana, including Julie McLaughlin with Indiana Skunk Rescue in Hendricks County but if you don’t find one in your area, you can always contact McLaughlin, Craft or another person on the list and they can help.

Rehab licenses extend across the state, so its not uncommon for them to travel hours away, rescuing animals or at the very least, getting families in touch with someone who can help.

“I’ve met many nice people doing this, it gives me hope in humanity. People with large acres of property offer it to me for release sites. So many are well intentioned, but just don’t realize that you can’t keep wild animals as pets.

When you get in over your head and can no longer take care of the animal, it has a 20-minute life span once released in the wild,” Craft said.

Common in Indiana at this time of year are squirrels, raccoons, opossums and rabbits. In the winter, Craft gets a lot of calls about owls.

She’s not allowed to trap but can pick up an animal that the home resident has trapped and she picks up any injured or orphaned animal. She can also give advice on how to move along animals that have taken up residence in your attic.

While there is not a rehabber in the Marion County area, McLaughlin operates in Hendricks County at 317273-9288 and Craft is in Morgan County at 317-263-1131 or under Paws, Wings and Other Things on Facebook.

Women in Hendricks County History Mary A. Soper, of Danville, and an old [Central Normal College] student, graduate from the Indianapolis Eclectic Medical College, February 8th, ’82, and is now practicing with Dr. Kendrick, 73 N.E. St. Indianapolis. She is the first lady, ever in attendance here, to take a medical course.

The Normal, as a whole, says, may her success be great.

The Republican, March 30, 1882 The first woman in Hendricks County to earn a medical degree was a practitioner of eclectic medicine, which made use of botanical remedies and physical therapy practices.

Mary Alice Soper was born on a farm near New Winchester and grew up on a farm two miles west of Danville, with her parents and her brothers, Fred and Clay.

She was educated in the Danville schools and enrolled in the Preparatory Class at Central Normal College in 1878. She graduated from the Indiana Eclectic Medical College in Indianapolis in 1882. She practiced with Dr. Kendrick for two years, but then gave up her chosen profession to assist her parents and brother, Fred, in the management of the family farm.

That she was the first woman doctor in the county should have been at least a footnote in its written history, but the biography of her brother, found in the 1914 history of Hendricks County, had only the following mention of his sister’s accomplishments: “Miss Soper deals in White Leghorn chickens and the finest poultry farm and equipment in the Middle West.

She is also a club woman, belonging to the Modern Priscilla and New Era clubs at Indianapolis, and to the Lawrence School Girls’ Club.”

While her accomplishment wasn’t recognized in that history, the Journal of the Indiana State Medical Association for Jan.-Dec. 1915, remembered her as a colleague: “Mary A. Soper, M.D., of Danville, graduate of the Indiana Eclectic Medical College in 1882, died May 7, of diabetes.”

She is buried in the New Winchester cemetery. _____ Dr. Mary Smith, formerly a student here, and a recent graduate of Ann Arbor Medical College, paid her respects to her “Old Alma Mater’ last week. Dr. Mary expects to locate in Iowa and practice her profession.

The Republican, November 27, 1884 “The world needs the woman doctor.”

Dr. William Heath Byford’s belief that women would make successful physicians led him to establish what would become the Northwestern University Woman’s Medical School in 1879. The school lasted 10 years, graduating several hundred doctors, including two women from Hendricks County.

Mary Hadley Smith was born in Iowa in 1856. Her parents were William Brazelton Smith and Susannah Hadley Smith. The family moved to Indiana, where William died in 1861. Mary had five siblings and four half-siblings from her mother’s first marriage. In 1860, Susannah and Mary were living in Hadley, where Mary was teaching school.

To further her education, Mary enrolled in Central Normal College in 1878, graduating from the Special Science Class in 1879. She enrolled in Northwestern University Woman’s Medical school, graduating in 1882.

Mary was hired in the Department for Women at Indiana Central State Hospital for the Insane in 1889.

She was appointed Medical Intern at Willard Asylum for the Insane in New York in 1909, retiring from that facility in 1918.

She later moved to Long Beach California, where she died in 1941. She is buried in Hadley Friends cemetery. _____ Maria Allen was born in 1846 on a farm near Fairfield. She received her early education at Fairfield Friends School and the Friends Academy in Spiceland.

For 20 years, she taught in the district schools of the area. Her brother and a cousin were doctors and at the age of 38, Maria DR. MARIA JESSUP enrolled in Northwestern University’s Woman’s Medical School, graduating in 1887. Two months after graduation, she married Joel Jessup, a widower and dairy farmer.

“Dr. Ria,” as she was called, had her office in their home in Friendswood. Her black buggy and horse was a familiar sight in the Fairfield and Friendswood area, day and night, as she visited the sick and delivered babies.

She was active in the Fairfield Friends Meeting, the Woman’s Foreign Missionary Society, and the Women’s Christian Temperance Union. In 1912, on the Prohibitionist ticket, she became the first woman in the county to run for the office of Coroner.

She practiced medicine in Hendricks, Morgan, and Marion counties for 30 years, retiring for health reasons in 1914.

She died in 1922 and buried in Fairfield Friends cemetery. In her obituary, she was described as “an exponent of the gospel of good cheer, a sympathetic and conscientious physician.” ______________________________________________

Danville Gets Ready For Mayberry Man Premier

Karen Knotts, daughter of Don Knotts (Barny Fife on The Andy Griffith Show) is pictured in a scene from Mayberry Man.

Danville is getting read for its close up, as Saturday, May 15, has been selected as the date for the premier of the Mayberry Man movie at The Royal Theater.

Centered on the continuing popularity of The Andy Griffith television show and the fans who bring back a little bit of Mayberry through festivals, the independent movie was made by brothers Stark and Cort Howell. The Howell’s father, Hoke Howell, played the role of “Dud Wash” on The Andy Griffith Show.

The plot involves an arrogant movie star, busted for speeding in a small town, and sentenced to attend Mayberry Fest, a week-long festival celebrating The Andy Griffith Show. Immersed in a modern-day version of Mayberry, he is forced out of his Hollywood bubble and given the chance to discover the true meaning of friendship and family.

A portion of the movie was filmed in Danville last year.

Preliminary plans for the movie premier include a mini “Mayberry Fest,” and red carpet premier for stars and special guests. There will also be screenings of the film for the public on Sunday.

Details of the event will be publishes as the plans are finalized.

For more information about the film, visit mayberryman.com. ______________________________________________

A coming red carpet event, the Host Fund budget, a new K-9 and a DPW online garage sale were among the range of topics at the March 3 meeting of the Danville Town Council.

First on the agenda was Dan Distler, representing the producers of the Mayberry Man movie requested the closure of the east, south, and west sides of the court house square for the world premier of the film on Saturday, March 15. A mini-festival will be part of the activities that will accompany the premier. Mr. Distler said he would consult with local fire and police department as the plans are finalized. The Council approved the request.

Approval of 2021 planned expenditures for the Host Fund, amounting to $1,157,577, was next on the agenda.

The expenditures would leave the fund with a balance of $956,164.10. Greg VanLaere made a motion to approve the budget, adding that a $300,000 deposit be made to the Host Future Fund. Clerk-Treasurer Jenny Pearcy said that she would rather wait until fall to make such a deposit. No second was made and the motion failed. Then, the motion was made by Nancy Leavitt to approve the Host Fund budget “as is” and the motion passed.

Resolution 4-2021 was passed to amend the Town’s Policies and Procedures Manual to extend the time off benefit for those diagnosed with COVID-19, or are required to quarantine on account of contact with someone with COVID-19, to extend the benefit to October 2021, retroactive to Jan. 1, 2021.

The Council approved plans to move forward with the Recreation Impact Fee (RIF) Study and the Park Five-Year Master Plan Update.

An Expenditure Request of $11,000 for replacement of the retiring K-9. The Police Department had raised $30,000 in donations for the project, which will be used, with the remainder of the donations to be used for K-9 equipment and improvement of the dog agility course used for training. K-9 Sgt. Jeff Slayback said that retiring K-9 Zeke will be replaced by K-9 Jack in the spring or summer.

Public Works Superintendent Andrew Pitcher received permission to dispose of surplus equipment by use of electronic public auctions.

A first reading was made for Ordinance 7-2021, increasing the speed limit on CR 200 E from 30 mph to 40 mph. The rules were suspended and the change passed.

The ordinance will require to be published in the newspaper for two weeks before it will become effective. ______________________________________________

Letters To The Editor At the last Town Council meeting I made a motion to add $300,000 to the Host Future fund. Since the meeting, several people have asked me what the motion was about, so I want to explain my reasoning.

Our town is in a very unique situation. Through hosting the Waste Management facility, our town collects a portion of the tipping fees collected at the landfill. Since these funds are NOT taxpayers’ funds, they can be invested outside of the strict criteria that is laid out by the State of Indiana. The Town also has an Emergency fund that IS taxpayer money and has to comply with state statute.

The Host Fund has two components to it. First, is the Host Fund which pays for Town priority projects. Then we have the Host Future Fund. This is the fund that the Town invests host money into because the tipping fees will end in the future and the Town is planning for that future.

The Town Council held a Work Study session to discuss the budget for this year’s Host money. There are a couple of priority projects (Roof for Hargrave Hall and Boiler for town hall). These items were included to be paid for from the Host Fund.

During our work study, I suggested that those items should be paid for from the town’s Emergency Fund. I did this from a purely mathematical analysis. Taxpayer funds (Emergency funds) can only be invested in short term fixed income investments. Currently those investments are yielding a very small sum.

The Host Future fund can be invested for a much longer term and slightly more aggressive investments.

The Council then worked together to remove the roof and boiler from the host budget and pay for them from the Emergency fund. This created about a $400k excess in the Host fund at year ending 2021.

My motion was to approve the Host Budget and invest an additional $300k into the Host Future fund. Mathematically, you want to spend the laziest money first; Emergency funds earning 1% or less verses Host Future funds earning over 10% just between June and November of 2020.

My motion did die from a lack of a second.

I wanted to get this excess into the Host Future fund so it could be earning money for the future. Tipping fees will eventually go away when the landfill stops collecting trash. The Future Fund will continue to live past the usefulness of the landfill and be available for our children and grandchildren.

If these funds are not invested, they sit in cash and do not earn hardly anything, much like your checking account at the bank. The Clerk Treasurer preferred to wait until October to see if maybe something would come up where these funds would need to be used.

Being in the financial business, I know that funds can be added and withdrawn from this type of brokerage account in a matter of days. Hence, I see no reason for waiting to invest these additional funds.

I look forward to working with the Clerk Treasurer and the rest of the council to iron out the details on how this can move forward in a more timely manner.

By David Winters The sometimes tumultuous (because of never knowing when a game might be cancelled because of Covid protocols), hard-fought regular season finally came to an end and the real season was set to begin. Danville drew perhaps the most difficult road to the Regional on selection Sunday with a first-round Sectional game against Crawfordsville.

The Athenians were hungry to return the favor to the Warriors who, just a couple of weeks earlier, handed them their first conference defeat, falling short in their quest for a Sagamore Conference Championship, as Danville took the win. Crawfordsville wasted no time in putting the Warriors on notice that this game would be different.

The game was very tight throughout the first have with both teams displaying a gritty determination and clarity that nothing less than their best would be needed to walk out with a trip to round two on Friday. The half time score saw the Athenians with just a one-point lead.

I n the third quarter, the Danville fans were beginning to squirm in their seats as Crawfordsville began to create space between them and the Warriors, and it began to feel like their playoff run would come to a premature end. At the end of the three quarters, the Athenians led by a score of 48-40.

Whatever Coach Barber and his players drew up during the quarter break must have been good as they began to show their early-season offensive prowess and held their own on the defensive end. The game would remain tight down the stretch and as the clock wound down at the end of the fourth quarter, the score was tied at 62 apiece.

The Warriors had the ball as the clock ran down and while running their final play, Senior Kobe Ward was able to create some space on the right-side perimeter and drained a three-pointer with just 4.2 seconds left. All that was needed to push Danville to Friday nights round two

game was a solid defensive stop. That is exactly what happened, and the Warriors were victorious by a final score of 65-62.

Leading the Warriors in scoring was Kobe Ward with 16 points while Braxton Fulwider finished with 12 and Peyton Jones added 11 of his own.

The Warriors would advance to Friday night’s Sectional Semi-Final to take on the Greencastle Tigers for an opportunity to return the favor of an early season loss.

You could feel the energy in Case Arena, the home of the Frankfurt Hotdogs, as the great crowd of fans settled into cheer on their team. It was quite obvious, as well, that the players knew that this game likely decided the Sectional champion.

The Tigers came out with purpose as they started the game with more energy than the Warriors. Danville had an unusually slow start offensively and were only able to must eight points in the first quarter. They trailed 15-8 heading into quarter two.

Consistency can be a good thing, but in this game, a repeat in the second quarter of the performance in the first quarter did not bode well for Danville. They were only able to lay another eight points on the board while giving up 17 to Greencastle and were staring a seemingly insurmountable 32-16 halftime deficit.

The Warriors would not go away in the second half, however, and Junior Braxton Fulwider decided to shoulder the weight of the team and almost single-handedly bring them back from the brink. The young man scored 10 of his 12 points in the quarter, bringing Danville within two points mid-way through the third quarter.

In the end, the 16-point deficit was too much to overcome and while Danville won the second half, it was not enough and Greencastle was victorious and became Sectional 25 Champions by a final score of 66-51.

Congratulations Danville on a good season. We look forward to seeing you on the court again in just a few months.

Leading the way for Danville in the game was Tyler Dostin with 13 points while Kobe Ward and Braxton Fulwider finished with 12 apiece.

All’s Cool - The Team’s in the Pool!

The Danville Community High School Swim Team celebrated the last home meet of the season with a pool party, of sorts. Even the coaches jumped in and joined in the fun. _______________________________________________________________________________________________

Tribute

P a g e A-14)

ARTHUR “ART” LESTER CURTIS, 87, of Clayton, passed from this life on Monday, March 1, 2021, while surrounded by his loving family. He was born on April 30, 1933 in Burlington, Vermont, to the late Lester Arthur and Isabelle Bella (McGreevy) Curtis.

Attending school in Vermont, it was there he met his future wife, Polly. They were married on January 10, 1953.

Art proudly enlisted in the United States Navy from 1952 to 1955, serving in the Korean War on the US Franklin D. Roosevelt. After being honorably discharged, Art joined the Burlington Fire Department, serving as Deputy Chief for 32 years, retiring at 55.

Throughout the years, the family frequently took vacations, visiting State Parks, and enjoying the serene beach life of places like Chincoteague, Virginia.

Later in life, Art and Polly left Vermont for Florida, before settling into the rural life of Indiana for the remainder of their golden years. Along with his family, Art’s passions included playing Bingo, watching and attending Nascar, Formula One, and the Indy 500.

Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Corrine (Curtis) LeBlanc.

She is survived by daughters Debra (Barry) Mason and Amy (Mark) Lincks and four granddaughters: Emily Mason, Hannah Mason, Madison Lincks, and Sophia Lincks, as well as brother William C. Singleton, Lucy Detro, and Rebecca Fair.

Revenna was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. She was happiest when serving others and ministering to people in their times of need. Renowned for her cooking, baking, gardening, reading, and sewing, she found great joy in sharing these gifts with both her family and friends from many cultures.

Her “formal” education began in a one-room schoolhouse with no electricity, plumbing, few books, less paper but with industrious, resilient students and teachers. Her desire for knowledge continued to burn brightly after her family moved to Indiana. A Fillmore High School graduate, she went on to earn a B.S. from Franklin College, an M.A.T. from DePauw, and an M.L.S. from IU. Revenna served as a teacher and librarian in several districts including Monroe-Gregg, IPS, and Covenant Christian. She especially treasured teaching senior adult Sunday School class at Plainfield Christian Church for 20 years.

Services were Tuesday, March 9. at Plainfield Christian Church. Interment was at Center Valley Cemetery.

The family suggests donations in Revenna’s honor be made to the Plainfield Christian Church Missions (800 Dan Jones Road) or to the Arbor Day Foundation (211 N. 12th Street, Lincoln, NE 68508).

From:​ Court House Grounds To:​ “GrandmaPete” Thelma S. Bodily Stephenson May 27, 1916 - March 5, 2021

On May 27th 2016, Grandma Pete worked her last day at Court House Grounds. When I asked her why she was quitting she replied, “um… because I’m 100!” (...that was four years ago.)

In 1916 ​Woodrow Wilson​ was president, Olivia de Havilland was born, James James Whitcomb Riley died, ​ Cadillac​ first used a “key” start the ignition in their cars, King George V was on the British throne and Grandma Pete was born. Her parents were school teachers and both of her grandfathers crossed the plains in covered wagons as little boys with the Mormon Pioneers.

Working side by side with Grandma for the first 18 years of our business exposed us to an ethic that could only be taught by a woman who had her children during the depression and raised them during the war. As a team, we loved, we learned, we fought, we laughed, we cried, but most all we worked. Over the years the business has faced every sort of personal and economic challenge, not to mention things like, September 11th, and a pandemic. As business partners, Bill, Tracy and Dawnna, could not have survived without each other’s hard work and sacrifices, and we certainly could not have succeeded without Grandma. We “owned” the joint, she “ran” it… These past 4 years of working without her, we have missed her presence in our shop, her talents in the kitchen, her steady influence, reliable skills, and her spirit in our daily lives. She was the ultimate “war buddy” and now with her passing her absences seems painfully and sadly final.

We miss you already, Court House Grounds- Tracy Jones Bill Franklin Dawnna (Dodson) Hogan-Guerra

MICHAEL SELCH, 78, passed away on March 2, 2021.

He was a young 13-year-old when he met the love of his life, Betty Perkins. A sweet farm boy set eyes on her pair of yellow shoes, and the rest was history. Mike and Betty were married, and welcomed 3 baby girls: Joanie, Laura, and Kathyrn, and grieved the loss of a sweet baby boy, their 4th child. In 1969, the family moved to “the Ponderosa,” a beautiful, white farmhouse on a hill in North Salem, where Mike eventually served on the town board. In June of 2020, Mike and Betty moved to Indianapolis to be closer to their 3 girls, 8 grandchildren, and 14 great-grandchildren.

Everyone who knew him has heard a story about his time working for Firestone Racing and Aldo Andretti Firestone High Performance Center & Associated Sales.

Always Mr. Fix-It, Mike used his woodworking, carpentry, and electrician talents to tend to maintenance and the grounds of Tri-West Hendricks Schools for over 10 years, build sets for Hendricks Civic Theatre, and in the creation of several of his own businesses including “Mike’s Fix It Shop” and “Many Mansions.”

He was a man of strong faith, who committed to over 10 years of Lay Witness mission work with Betty by his side. Mike spent time as the church maintenance director, and eventually obtained his Pastoral License to officiate weddings, a pleasure he was able to perform for two of his granddaughters in recent years. Mike ministered at the Boys School, teaching Sunday School classes, leading Bible studies, and through the book he authored, “Finding Peace About Death.” His family invites you with love to listen to Mike’s testimony in his own words. You can watch Mike’s interview on WYTV7 Shine Your Light: Learning to Find Peace About Death, by visiting here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BR8kkhJWsW0 .

3-11-21-2T hspaxlp ________________________________________________________________________ NOTICE OF HEARING ON PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO LEASE BROWNSBURG COMMUNITY SCHOOL CORPORATION

You are hereby notified that a public hearing will be held before the Board of School Trustees (the “Board”) of Brownsburg Community School Corporation (the “School Corporation”) on April 12, 2021 at the hour of 6:30 p.m. (Local Time) at F. L. O’Neal Administration Building, 310 Stadium Drive, Brownsburg, Indiana, upon a proposed Eighth Amendment to Lease (the “Eighth Amendment”) to be entered into between Brownsburg 1999 School Building Corporation (the “Building Corporation”), as lessor, and the School Corporation, as lessee.

The proposed Eighth Amendment upon which the hearing will be held amends the existing Lease Agreement originally dated November 23, 1994, as previously amended (the “Original Lease”, and together with the Eighth Amendment, the “Lease”). The Eighth Amendment extends the term of the Original Lease and increases the rent payable thereunder solely as to sixth-grade addition to the West Middle School (the “2021 Leased Premises”). The Eighth Amendment extends the term of the Original Lease, as it the 2021 Leased Premises to December 31, 2042 and increases the annual Lease rental, as the 2021 Leased Premises, by a maximum of $3,285,000, payable on June 30 and December 31 beginning with the completion of the 2021 Leased Premises or June 30, 2022. Once the Building Corporation’s Ad Valorem Property Tax First Mortgage Bond Refunding and Improvement Bonds, Series 2016B, Ad Valorem Property Tax First Mortgage Refunding and Improvement Bonds, Series 2017 and Ad Valorem Property Tax First Mortgage Bonds, Series 2020 mature, the parties agree to terminate the Lease as it applies to the Leased Premises, except the 2021 Leased Premises.

As additional rental, the School Corporation shall maintain insurance on the Leased Premises as required in the Lease, shall pay all taxes and assessments against such Leased Premises, as well as the cost of alterations and repairs, and shall pay rebate amounts to the United States Treasury, if necessary. After the sale by the Building Corporation of its bonds (the “Bonds”) to pay for the cost of the renovation, improvements and construction, including any other expenses incidental thereto, the increased annual Lease rental stated above shall be reduced to an amount equal to the multiple of $1,000 next higher than the sum of principal and interest due on the Bonds in each twelve-month period ending on January 15 plus $5,000, payable in equal semiannual installments.

The Lease gives an option to the School Corporation to purchase the Leased Premises on any Lease rental payment date.

The 2021 Leased Premises is the sixth-grade addition to be added to the Brownsburg West Middle School located at 310 Stadium Drive, Brownsburg, Indiana in the School Corporation.

The plans and specifications, including the estimates for the cost of the renovation, improvement and construction, as well as a copy of the proposed Eighth Amendment, are available for inspection by the public on all business days, during business hours, at the Administration Building of the School Corporation, 310 Stadium Drive, Brownsburg, Indiana.

At such hearing all persons interested shall have a right to be heard upon the necessity for the execution of the Eighth Amendment, and upon whether the increased Lease rental provided for therein to be paid to the Building Corporation is a fair and reasonable rental for the renovations to and construction of the 2021 Leased Premises. Such hearing may be adjourned to a later date or dates, and following such hearing the Board may either authorize the execution of the Amendment as originally agreed upon or may make modifications therein as may be agreed upon with the Building Corporation.
