Live a Good Story

A follow-up is a story that builds on an earlier event. Last April, Hendricks County was touched by our nation’s unfathomable trend of mass shootings.

Eight people died in a shooting at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis. Among the victims was Matthew R. Alexander, 32, an Avon High MATTHEW ALEXLANDER ________________________ School graduate.

In this issue is a follow-up to Matthew’s story, one that didn’t end with his death, but has continued through the strength of his family and the generosity of the community.

While such a senseless incident leaves a pain that never really heals for the loved ones involved, it does present the community with the opportunity to support them and honor the one that they lost.

It shouldn’t take a tragedy to make us aware of the people who make a difference in our lives or to show them our appreciation while they are still with us. We can, as the Alexander family’s message shares, “Live a good story” and make the world a better place in countless ways, both large and small.

See Melissa Gibson’s story on the community’s celebration of Matt’s life on page 9 of this issue. ______________________________________________

Delving Into Yester~Year

Local historian and writer Paul Miner takes items from

The Republican’s Yester-Year column to develop an interesting, informative and often humorous article.

To the Editor: As the 1896 presidential election drew nigh in September, Coatesville, Clayton, New Winchester, Union Township, and other county Republican strongholds organized McKinley clubs.

Plainfield’s club already claimed 226 members. North Salem’s roster reached 175.

Brownsburg had organized 100.

William McKinley, “the popular Representative from Ohio,” had visited Danville during the first week of August 1889. No reason was given for his visit. He had been “quietly resting in the mountains of Pennsylvania for some weeks.”

Perhaps he forgot to get off the train in Ohio.

Republican students organized the McKinley League of Central Normal College in March 1896. They resolved to “promote the nomination and election of the apostle of protection.”

McKinley was big on tariffs and protectionism. The Republicans promised a return to prosperity following the Panic of 1893, a major economic depression.

In April that year, the league obtained McKinley badges, “and they are to be seen on almost every student. The club boasted 400 members – 500 when “the ladies are enrolled as members.”

The League convened “a rousing meeting” at the Courthouse in July. “The Republican boys of the college are ready for the fray.”

Merchant C.F. Hall had already raised the first McKinley pole. “It proudly floats a McKinley banner to the breeze.”

In September, “the free silverites of Cartersburg were surprised and panic-stricken” by an enormous gathering of 1,000 McKinley supporters.

Free silverites supported Democrat William Jennings Bryan. In brief, Bryan wanted to drop the gold standard in favor of silver.

Lawyer Lucius Burrie Swift exhorted the “largest and most eager audience” the town had seen, eliciting numerous “That’s right. That’s sound.” responses. Many initially on the fence left convinced the silver policy “would be destructive to every interest in the country save only the mine owners and speculators.”

Then “all hands took the rope” to raise a 137-foot pole in support of the former Ohio governor and his running mate Garret Hobart. The crowd, headed by the Clayton band, marched around the pole singing the Civil War tune, “Tramp, tramp, tramp, the boys are marching.”

W. Smith Gibbs, for whom today’s W.S. Gibbs Memorial Park is named, climbed the pole and let loose the raising ropes.

That month, the paper reported “the McKinley wave rolls on in mighty force.” Rumors that Eel River Township Democrat Ben Rynerson planned to vote for McKinley led North Salem “sound money” Democrats W.H. Fleece and Thomas Moore to investigate.

Ben informed them he shot straight when hunting squirrels. He believed Bryan, “the mouthpiece of the free silver sentiment, ought to be killed.” He was voting for McKinley.

In September, Lizton hosted “not less than 1,000” in support of McKinley. Danville’s band furnished music. The newly organized McKinley Club “will do good work to reduce the Popocratic vote in Union Township.”

Popocratic was a disparaging reference to Democrats supporting populist policies at the end of the 19th century.

McKinley remained immensely popular in the county. His re-election bid was welcomed in late October 1900 by a four-mile-long Main Street Danville parade numbering in the thousands, according to The Republican. The crowd was estimated at between 12,000-15,000.

“The Famous Danville band” led the column, which included five bands and drum corps.

The “mighty demonstration . . . was a homage paid to prosperity, to good times, to an honest dollar and a chance to earn it.”

Dynamite explosions opened the day’s boisterousness. Numerous troops dressed as Rough Riders. “There were scores upon scores of pretty girls in wagons.”

“It was the greatest day in the history of Hendricks County Republicanism.”

McKinley was assassinated by an anarchist in September 1901. Vice President Theodore Roosevelt succeeded him.

Danville town board soon after resolved, “Whereas, the murderous bullet of a cowardly assassin has taken from our country our much beloved President . . . a wise, fearless and patriotic leader, a gallant hero and a noble citizen . . .

“Whereas, humanity of all classes has lost one of its staunchest friends . . .

“Resolved . . . between the hours of 12 noon and 3 p.m. (September 19) all business places be closed and suitable services be held in memory of our martyred hero.”

A memorial service convened at the college chapel with speeches and songs. Local Grand Army of the Republic members marched to the chapel. Every citizen was expected to attend.

East Coast Report by Jerry Vornholt [The Republican’s publisher shares observations and reflects on his recent trip to his home state of Delaware.]

The Boardwalk, A Lesson in 3 Acts: Part II, Shoutout to the Rehoboth Beach Patrol In the summer of 2018, I was one of 568 souls saved from drowning by the Rehoboth Beach Patrol lifeguards.

Caught in a rip current, I did everything you’re not supposed to do. I tried to swim back to shore, and I panicked. Within minutes it hit me; this may be the day I die.

My legs felt like rubber bands, my eyes were burning from the salt water, I was too exhausted to yell, and even if they see my flailing arms there’s no way to stay up long enough for the lifeguard to reach me. Yet, somehow, he saw me, and he did get to me, and I got to live another day.

Over the course of one hundred years the Rehoboth Beach Patrol has saved tens of thousands of lives. And in those 100 years, only one life has been lost.

This was my first time back to Rehoboth Beach since 2018. I needed to stop in to the RBP headquarters to let them know how grateful I was. Knocking on the worn screen door of their boardwalk shack, Chief Rich came to greet me. “This is my first time back to Rehoboth since one of your lifeguards saved my life,” I blurted out, “and it’s my intention to say thanks and donate to the RBP every time I come back,” and handed him a $100 bill.

Chief Rich stared at me for a few seconds then turned away, went into another room, and came out a minute later with a piece of paper and a shirt.

“Here’s what we are going to do,” he said. “We are going to put this into the Dave Reynolds Scholarship Fund. Dave was a life6 East Main Street ~ P.O.

Museum Road Rally Travels Chocolate Trail

Becky Cervenka registers their Rubicon in the 2021 Hendricks County Museum Road Rally. __________________________________________________

Rally Master Tim Macsay gives safety instructions to the drivers and navigators before the start. ____________________________________________________

Some fifty-plus Hendricks County travelers in 26 cars gathered in the parking lot south of the Hendricks County Museum early Saturday morning, eager for the intriguing route designed by the Museum’s volunteer “Road Rally Master” Tim Macsay.

Tim and his family, also museum volunteers, checked in the drivers as they perused the turn-by-turn directions navigating throughout the northwestern part of our county and leading through a section of Boone County.

Of the group, about half were returning from previous rallies, while the rest were newcomers to the event. The sunny, mild weather was just right for this adventure, appropriately named “The Great Chocolate Caper Car Rally.”

Macsay and his team presented instructions, including safety pointers, and in addition to the list of directions for the 67-mile tour, a list of interesting points to look for increased the anticipation of the trip. Questions like “What substation is on this corner? How many hangars are there at this airport,” etc. provided a means of learning more about Hendricks and Boone counties.

A list of 40 facts about chocolate gave participants an even tastier learning experience.

Driver/navigator teams looked forward to working together to complete this tour. However, one quipped, “Taking direction from my spouse? Do you provide marriage counseling at the end or the drive?” bringing a knowing chuckle from throughout the crowd.

Drivers and their navigators left driving south and west, one by one, with a short time lapsing between cars.

What was the chocolate theme about? Hershey’s Kisses were given out at the start. At the first assigned rest stop, directions suggested that the team buy a chocolate candy bar, leading to learning the favorite candy bar of this group at the end. So many varieties resulted in just, “We all love chocolate.”

The route eventually made a stop at Donaldson’s Chocolate Shop on SR 39 just before Lebanon, where many took the opportunity to buy excellent chocolate.

The trip ended back at the same parking lot south of the museum where Tim answered the questions presented earlier and then presided over a few games. Grand prize was a wooden gear shift trophy from Forget-Me-Knots awarded to Janet Hladek for throwing a giant fan belt accurately.

Other prizes included a large, medium, and small chocolate car and even more Hershey’s Kisses. Afterward, participants were invited to tour the Hendricks County Museum and then many gathered at the Mayberry Café to exchange stories.

Watch The Republican in August 2022 for the date of the 2022 Hendricks County Museum Road Rally in early October.

This car was built by owner Simon Jahner’s relative in the 1960s. ____________________________________________________

Rally participants shared stories over lunch at the Mayberry Café in Danville. ____________________________________________________

Hendricks County Museum is at 170 S. Washington Street in Danville. The building served as the residence of the Hendricks County Sheriffs and their families from 1866 to 1974, while the county jail was in the basement.

Voices

Feeding birds isn’t cheap. Whoever said “eats like a bird” didn’t feed birds! They are gluttons! Nationwide $5 Billion a year are spent on wild bird food! John and I started with a single feeder and now have eight!

In the winter, we offer seed, suet, and peanuts to entice woodpeckers, juncos, sparrows, wrens, titmice, jays, and cardinals.

Come spring, we switch to grape jelly, oranges, and sugar-water attracting orioles and hummingbirds.

While it’s somewhat sad, we feed the hawks too. The Woodpeckers prefer suet. neighborhood Cooper’s ________________________ Hawk comes to the feeder occasionally. (We usually can tell she’s been here by the pile of fluttering feathers on the ground.)

That figure above doesn’t include the cost of feeders, birdbaths, and nesting boxes/birdhouses. That’s another $960 million/year. The Horns have three birdbaths, and a couple of birdhouses.

Sunflower seeds are a favorite food for a wide variety of birds including bluebirds, sparrows, and finches.

For The Birds The birds are flocking, preparing for migration. The squirrels are busy digging up my backyard and burying acorns and hickory nuts. I haven’t seen the hummingbirds this week. I assume they’ve already started their journey south. Some may find this time of year depressing but I enjoy watching the preparations Nature makes for winter.

The leaves changing color and falling. The grasses and wildflowers turning to seed. The bushes bursting with colorful berries. Hickory nuts, walnuts, and acorns... I can’t step out of my backdoor barefooted for all the acorns littering the ground. It’s that time of year again. Time to clean the birdfeeders and stock up on sunflower and thistle seed.

I am one of the 81 million people in the US who enjoys feeding the birds.

With that many people providing sustenance, it would be easy to think our feathered friends couldn’t A bright red cardinal at your survive without humans feeder will brighten your day. feeding them. Don’t kid ________________________ yourself. They’d do quite well without us. People feed birds because we like to watch them and how better to get a closer look than to lure them with food? Put a feeder near a picture window and we can be mesmerized in the comfort of our warm homes.

Cardinals, juncos, and sparrows on clean-up duty, eating the fallen seeds from the feeder. ___________________________________________________

Finches can empty a thistle seed feeder in less than a day

Accessories, I don’t have a figure for how much money Americans spend on those. Between the two of us, John and I own several pairs of binoculars (a set for each car, the sunroom, the living room, a “good” pair for the field, and a few spares). We have books and phone apps to identify birds by location, color, habitat, and even song. And we aren’t hardcore birders. We don’t even belong to the Audubon Society!

The pleasure we experience when we identify a new species at the feeder or recognize a return visitor makes it worth every cent to us.

Birdwatching doesn’t have to be expensive. One of the simplest ways to attract wild birds is to make your yard welcoming. Plant native bushes, shrubs, and trees that provide food and shelter for wildlife. Dogwood, Beauty Berry, and Crabapple are just a few examples. A water source is also important. An expensive fountain or elaborate birdbath isn’t necessary. A terracotta saucer or shallow pan works just fine. It will need to be dumped regularly to prohibit bacteria, algae, and mosquitoes in summer and ice in winter.

Whether you go all out and set up a deluxe feeding station or just drop a few breadcrumbs on the ground in front of your window, there’s something special about watching the birds flutter and hop from inside your cozy house.

Eighty-one million people can’t be wrong. ______________________________________________

JUST AN OBSERVATION

A Note From Bee We are fast approaching the time of year when vegetable soup would be good for supper. I have been said to make very good vegetable soup. That was not always the case. It has taken a lot of practice to come up with good soup. I think the secret to good soup was given to me by my uncle. He suggested I add ketchup. He was given this tip by his father. Nobody can make a small amount of soup. So I share with friends. I add some fruit and my friend has a meal.

Recipe for Bee’s soup (All amounts are approximate) 1 lb. browned ground beef small cans of corn, green beans, and carrots 2 cans beef broth 4 medium potatoes cut up and cooked 1 can progresso vegetable beef soup 1 can vegetarian soup 1/3 cup cabbage 1 can zucchini in tomato sauce any other vegetables you wish 1/2 cup ketchup 2 cups water Simmer for about an hour Bee Jones ______________________________________________ You can have no wise laws nor free enforcement of wise laws unless there is free expression of the wisdom of the people -- and, alas, their folly with it. But if there is freedom, folly will die of its own poison, and the wisdom will survive.

Ten And Two

By Janet Beam Remember back in the old days when driver training was offered during the summer? For a couple of weeks in the summer, we met our teacher at the school in order for him to make us safe and courteous drivers. Judging by the behavior of some driving today, some of those teachers failed miserably. But I digress.

The instructor had a set of pedals on his side so he could avoid a life-changing accident if necessary. He also had a large wooden block on the floor in front of him. The goal was to never, ever cause that block to fall over. Which, unfortunately, this driver managed to do by slamming on the brakes instead of coming to a gentle stop.

The most notable thing I remember learning is that you should drive with your hands at ten o’clock and two o’clock, which seemed utterly ridiculous to me with my 15 year old brain. Who drives that way? Old people!

The cool way to drive was with one arm out the window and the other casually holding the steering wheel either on the top or on the bottom or by the cool steering knob you would just have to have on your own car, whenever you managed to get one.

There are just too many things people are doing while driving where they absolutely cannot have both hands on the wheel. Who hasn’t seen someone eating a meal, drinking hot scalding coffee or ice cold tea, blowing their nose, picking their nose, holding a cell phone, texting, reading a newspaper, a book or watching a video on their phone, applying makeup, cleaning their ears or clipping their fingernails? With all this important stuff that absolutely has to be done while driving, there was no way, once I passed this class, that I would be at ten and two.

Fast forward 60 years and what do I find myself doing?

Driving with my hands at ten and two. It all of a sudden seems the most natural way to drive and the safest.

Just an observation. ______________________________________________

Here We Grow, Again

A crowd gathers to watch the rush hour traffic on Danville’s Main Street in the 1860’s.

This past summer, the town of Danville approved new home starts that will double the number of houses in our town within the next several years. Some of my fellow citizens are in favor, but many more are opposed. I am against growth when sitting in traffic, but in favor of it while walking the trails in Plainfield, enjoying the benefits of growth. Of course, it’s easy to favor the growth of Plainfield while living in Danville. The champions of growth are not without compelling arguments. More homes equal more tax dollars, which mean better schools, more parks and walking trails, more jobs, young families, and a deeper pool of civic talent. Several first-generation families in our town just opened Danville Dips, an ice-cream shop, on our town square. How can I be against ice cream?

The anti-growers fear it will mean more traffic congestion, which it most certainly will, and worse, more crime, which remains to be seen. I’ve heard some people say they don’t want “those people” moving to our town. If you want to have fun, watch people squirm when you ask them what they mean by “those people.” I’ve heard people who’ve lived here less than three years rail against newcomers, as if their ancestors had platted our streets in 1824. Several of the new residences will be apartments, causing some folks to sniff about renters and their theoretical dangers. When my parents first settled here in 1957, they rented for three years before buying their first home. Twenty-some years later my father was serving as the president of the town board. “Those people” we fear today will likely lead us tomorrow.

This growth is not just Danville’s story, it is central Indiana’s story. People from across the state and nation have discovered what many of us have known for decades, that central Indiana has much to offer—affordable housing, charming neighborhoods, excellent healthcare, good jobs, fine colleges, all this a stone’s throw from the sylvan splendor of the Hoosier National Forest, which nearly makes up for the Indiana legislature. What we sometimes lack—innovation, a global perspective, and political and ethnic diversity―will be improved by new citizens who don’t always look like us, think like us, vote like us or worship like us. Thank God! Or for that matter Allah, Bhagavan or Yahweh.

Danville has a population density of 1,298 folks per square mile, plenty of elbow room compared to Carmel, who shoehorns in 2,139 folks per square mile, while still making room for 137 more roundabouts. Danville’s answer to traffic congestion is to build some sort of bypass, one possible route carrying traffic right through my living room, or so it seems on the map. For the record, I’m opposed to any road project that involves my living room.

Another suggested improvement would split my son’s cattle farm in half, which doesn’t feel like an improvement to him. Nevertheless, the opposite of growth is stagnation, which serves no one well. We all need fresh infusions of life to keep things from silting over. Drive through any town that has declined in population since 1950 and ask yourself if you’d want to live among its shuttered storefronts, its weed-choked sidewalks, its tattered Trump flags, and failing schools. It is only then you realize “those people” are in fact your salvation, your insurance against your town’s decay and death.

Visit Boswell or Knox and ask them if they would like to grow, if they would like their empty buildings filled with bright and cheerful businesses, their schools filled with students eager to learn and teachers eager to teach, their churches filled with kind and thoughtful folk. Ask if they would enjoy a town park with a swimming pool and somewhere to shop other than Dollar General and a nice restaurant that doesn’t close at 2 PM. I returned to my hometown in 1999 after being away for 20 years, thinking it would be the same as I had left it, but things had changed in my absence. I complained about these “godawful new subdivisions that are going up everywhere,” until my dad pointed out that I lived in one. Twenty-two years later, I’m still here, living in a neighborhood that was Sam Anderson’s horse farm when I was a kid.

Bob Dylan nailed it on the head, “Admit that the waters around you have grown…so you better start swimming, or you’ll sink like a stone.”

Here’s to swimming. ______________________________________________

Hunting Tips & Reflections

By Mike E. Neilson

By Colletta Kosiba Hendricks County Master Gardener

Mike Neilson, longtime Danville High School teacher and longtime hunting enthusiast is sharing his hunting experience with our readers.

He’s also shared his knowledge in three books, available on Amazon. com.

Making Pumpkin Planters

Hold a Bouquet Pumpkins will a hold colorful fall bouquet. After cleaning the pumpkins innards out, insert a jar or can inside pumpkin to hold the flowers and water.

Make a Candlestick Small pumpkins can be hollowed to hold candles.

Use tiny ones for table decorations. Add fall touches of color with pumpkins around your home. Have some fun!

Yes. In the fall real pumpkins can be planters for your mums or sedums. Growing plants inside pumpkins is easy.

Use your imagination -there are all kinds of plant possibilities. Any pumpkin will work, but a round fat pumpkin with a flat bottom is easiest to plant in.

Use a sharp knife to slice off the top, remove the insides.

(Make the opening large enough for digging and planting.) Then fill the hollow pumpkin half full with lightweight potting soil. Take 2 or 3 purchased bedding plants, set them on top of the soil in pumpkin, then fill in around the plants with more potting soil, making sure to cover the plants at the same level they were originally planted. Water the plants and your pumpkin flower pot is done!

Put a face on a pumpkin and put in a planter - instant Halloween decoration! ____________________________________________________

What did the pumpkins say at happy hour?

Let’s get smashed.

A Bark From the Past: Henry

[Editor’s Note: The Republican’s first four-footed correspondent was Henry. A mixed breed rescue dog, Henry would make observations about being a dog in a small town. The articles, which ran in 2006 - 2010, have been languishing in the computer’s memory and we thought a new audience might enjoy some canine commentary.]

WOOF! I’m back! Not that I actually went anyplace. But, our computer went down and my humans were not in a particular rush to get it fixed! Of course not! They both have computers at work! They can get their stuff done without a computer at home! But, hello? What about me? I’m the writer in the household!

I’m the one who has to have a computer here! Remember Henry?

Every time my human held up a treat and said, “Speak!”

I just wanted to say, “I could if you would fix the doggone computer!” But all I could do was bark and salivate and wait for my treat. But, now the computer’s back and so am I! I have been studying a problem that I keep hearing about on the radio, the state of the nation’s economy. Now, as for this economy problem, my humans have been getting lots of mail wanting them to get new credit cards.

Well, I remember from my experience with that box of cell phones I found that anything you get with a credit card, you have to pay for again later! So, it makes sense to me that if you only bought what you could pay for now, and not have to pay for stuff twice, that would go a long way toward solving this crisis! And, the problem is, the alphas you people seem to pick have yet to figure this out.

What you have to do is take away the government’s credit card and give it some money!

So, how about this? Get a big mayonnaise jar and drop all your spare change into it at the end of every day. When it’s full, send it in! That way, the government will have all the money it needs, and you can get rid of all that change that rattles around in your pocket or purse and weighs you down!

A Squirrel About Town

By Archy I told Archy one of my co-workers had seen a squirrel in the alley behind our office and wondered if it were him.

“I would expect that was Al. He frequents that area and is quite comfortable around humans, Archy said. “He’s an alley squirrel, quite a different lifestyle from we who inhabit government property.”

Not suspecting that squirrels had a stratified social order, I asked him to expound further.

“Alley squirrels are what you might describe as ‘from the other side of the tracks.’ They steer clear of the Squirrel Salon and prefer the back alley squeakeasy,” he explained.

“Don’t you mean speakeasy?” I asked.

“Not at all,” Archy replied. “They mix together the dregs of beer bottles, then set the bottles up in an impromptu bowling alley. Whoever makes a strike emits a high-pitched squeak in celebration. We can hear them here at the court house, but I think they’re out of the range of human ears.”

Archy paused, looked around, and said in a whisper, “I’ve joined them a time or two!”

From talking to him I’d never have taken Archy for a tippler, but he read my thoughts and quickly corrected them.

“With our high metabolism alcohol has little effect on us,” he clarifed. “Besides, the more elite members of the Squirrel Salon delight in lowbrow activities.”

I recalled the words of another Archy, the literary cockroach from the imagination of Don Marquis: “The fish wife curse and the laugh of the horse, Shakespeare and I are frequently coarse.”

“Exactly!” the squirrel said. “It takes a high intellect to appreciate the groaner joke or the unbearable pun.”

“What did the squirrel teacher say when the class lined up in order of height?” I said.

“Stop critter-sizing,” Archy answered.

We both laughed.

How about us hunters that like to do it all on our own?

Like many hunters, when I took my first couple of deer, I had no butchering skills or equipment, so I just dropped the deer off at a processor. However, I just wasn’t satisfied with the product and decided to jump in and do it myself.

On the plus side of butchering your own game, there is absolutely no question if you got your own deer back and if you got as much meat as you think you should. (Side note: Unless you have processed a lot of deer, you truly have no appreciation of just how much or little meat you can get out of a deer.) I have evolved a system over the years that works for me, and it might work for you as well.

Cutting your own deer gives the hunter a certain satisfaction and closure to the whole hunt. I have been processing my own deer for over 30 years and I still enjoy every moment except for washing everything up. Somehow, I seem to get more knives, tables, and other tools messy.

Just another step in the whole processing step, clean up is essential for continued butchering efficiency.

Okay, so what’s the downside of home butchering.

Lots! First you need to have room to process a deer.

Where are you going to hang your deer after you’ve field dressed it? Outside in a tree or along a barn works but your neighbors might object. In the garage? Yep, I’ve done that a bunch much to the chagrin of my wife or the kids when they went into the garage to find something or hop in a car. Do you have access to a walk-in cooler to let the deer hang for a couple of days or do you need to cut it up quickly? Outside temperatures play a big roll. Too hot and you need to get that hide off quickly and cool the carcass. To cold and it’s a pain to butcher a deersicle.

Great, the deer has been field dressed, and hung up.

Now you have to skin the deer. Are you saving the hide or tossing it? I’ve done both and it’s simply a personal preference. I’ve had the hides tanned out for pelts as well as leather. This is another subject for another day, let’s get back to butchering.

Proper Gear Do you have the proper gear? Any old knife will cut but some knives are better than others. Everybody has their favorites in shapes and sizes of blades, I’m more interested in how long the blade holds an edge and how easy it is to resharpen. Don’t try to butcher a critter with a dull knife, just don’t. This is where accidents happen. Take a few moments, touch up the blade or grab another knife and keep cutting.

Where will the actual butchering take place? The kitchen table could work for the whole process if you are single or the family is all in with the butchering. Plastic folding tables work best for me. Not only are they mobile, but they are easy to clean and double as a cutting board as needed.

Where will you put the meat once it is cut from the carcass? Where will the bones go? What about the hide, head, horns (if applicable) and hooves? Each of these questions are vital to get the most out of your butchering experience.

I like to use plastic totes to hold the meat after I cut if off the bone. This keeps the meat clean, and I can separate what gets ground up for summer sausage and burger, versus roasts and steaks. I also have a tote for scraps and bones that I will either feed to my dog or take them to the back 40 for other critters to enjoy. I will also put game bags over the meat totes to keep flies off if the weather is warm.

I have wrapped meat using the old reliable freezer paper, I’ve also used Ziplock bags but my favorite method is to vacuum seal the meat after I have cut the meat into servings. (Note: if the meat is warm, allow it to cool before sealing to avoid freezer burn.) I also write on each package what critter it is from and what cut I’ve sealed. Most of the time this is obvious, but it just helps with clarification on cuts, species and when it was killed and butchered.

Other Equipment As mentioned earlier, I have a vacuum sealer for the meat. I’ve found the meat lasts longer when I keep it this way. If you go this route, you will need special bags for your sealer. Sometimes you have to recut the meat if the bag is too small or your hunk of meat is too large, a variety of sizes might be best. These bags aren’t cheap either, so costs are always a factor.

I also use a big grinder to take the scraps and meat to be ground up as burger. From this I can make summer sausage, brats, snack sticks, or burger. Another useful tool that I’ve added to my personal meat locker is a sausage stuffer. Again, summer sausage, snack sticks, breakfast sausage (wild boar, thank you very much), and venison bratwurst all go through the stuffer. Then there’s the smoker that I use to create some of the meat mentioned above plus lots of jerky.

I do not have a band saw to cut bone-in steaks but I do know people that use them and love those saws. I usually debone all the meat and separate the roasts and steaks by muscle groups. To each his own but boneless meat is just more versatile for my needs.

Whichever route you take after the kill, I wish you the best of luck this season and a freezer full of tasty meals. ______________________________________________

CIK9 Association Celebrates; Raises Funds

The CIK9 training facility has been designed by SEBREE architect Salil Nair and includes many opportunities for community use in addition to the K9 training. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

By Melissa Gibson In an effort to continue raising funds for a K9 training faculty in Central Indiana, many gathered to celebrate the current progress at TOPGOLF in Fishers last weekend.

The red carpet was full of recognizable faces, including Brian Calvert and Dixie the Praying Dog and television’s SEAL Team Justin Melnick and K9 Dita.

“I met the people with CIK9 a while ago during a training. They do a really good job of helping law enforcement, setting up training and helping with medical needs for the K9’s so I was honored to come out and support them today,” said Melnick.

Calvert said he welcomed any opportunity to support the dogs who help and protect first responders and military personnel.

Other VIPs in attendance included, Central Indiana K9 Association (CIK9) co-founders, Theresa Brandon and Kyle Schafer, world-renowned artist Susan Bahary, SEBREE Architect and President Salil Nair, PetPals host Patty Spitler and CIK9’s 2021 Working Dog of the Year, Liso-Lee and handler Lindsay Rozzel.

The focus for all attend-

ees remained on the K9’s and CIK9’s mission to build a training facility for dogs and their handlers.

SEBREE architectural firm has designed the facility, complete with a monument, modeled after K9 Harlej (Fishers K9 who died in the line of duty) and created by Bahary.

Bahary has been recognized in Washington D.C. and across the country for her work on the country’s

first war dog memorial, “Always Faithful”, displayed at the Pentagon.

“I really got to feel the heart of the military and law enforcement and see how incredible the people are. They are so selfless.

I was touched by that, whether it’s the human sacrifice or the animal’s sacrifice,” Bahary said.

“In a world where there tends to be division and going through a pandemic, it’s

great to recognize the good and there’s so much good about those who serve, including the animals. It’s something we can all agree on and we can all celebrate,” she continued.

The facility is estimated to cost $2 million and the association is currently looking for 3-5 acres of property to build.

Training can often be expensive, require travel and time away from fam-

Fans Tune In to Hendricks County’s WYRZ For News, Music & Much More

Executive Director Shane Ray has been a familiar voice on WYRZ for six years. __________________________________________________________

By Melissa Gibson The crew from WYRZ has brought local news, high school sports, locally produced programs and some great music to the airwaves since 2013.

“We’re an educational station,” said Executive Director Shane Ray. “Our mission is to teach young people interested in going into broadcasting. We give high school students time on the air; they help write or edit news stories and we’ve seen some of them go on to host radio shows or work with television stations.”

On-Air radio hosts include Ray, Daryl Chiletz (DCtheDJ), Paul Poteet, Allen Kiger, Brian Scott and Kevin Robinson (KRob) and listeners tune in to a variety of music and interviews with local non-profits, government officials and organizations such as

the Brownsburg Lions and the Carmel Symphony Orchestra.

While things have been going well for the past six years, earlier this year, the station hit a snag, causing many to lose their connection to their favorite radio station.

The non-profit, educational station, WYRZ has a license through the Hendricks County Education Media Corporation and relies on listener’s support.

“I was on vacation and started getting messages on social media that another station was coming in. That could be due to weather at times, but when I got back to town, I realized, it’s not the weather, it’s actually WMYJ,” Ray said.

The application through the FCC is actually quite extensive, but Ray believes, something slipped through the cracks this time.

“When you apply for a license with the FCC, you have to prove with an engineering report that your station will not interfere with a television station or another radio station,” Ray said. “When we went on the air, 98.9 was completely

clear, that’s why we chose that one. We’re a small non-profit and our antenna can’t be more than 100 feet high and we’re at 100 watts.”

This means, WYRZ should easily cover Hendricks County, certainly protected within the Town of Brownsburg (where the office is located) but reaching out as far as the southern part of Plainfield and west of Danville.

Today, Ray can hear WMYJ on his car radio in the heart of Brownsburg.

The Martinsville station was originally an AM station and use a translator to broadcast to their FM station, 100.5 FM. Recently, the station, owned by Mid America Radio of Bloomington received permission from the FCC to post a second translator in Mooresville, but they put the translator on the same frequency as WYRZ. “It may look good on paper, but it’s not working out in reality,” Ray said.

“The new translator from WMYJ is 250 watts and is 235 feet in the air. I contacted them and spoke to an engineer who said they were afraid [interference] might happen. They said it was accepted by the FCC

and they would make sure everything was in accordance.”

Ray suggested swapping the frequencies from Martinsville with Mooresville, lowering the chance of interference and was promised a call back but didn’t hear from WMYJ until The Republican reached out to inquire about the situation.

With no reply to The Republican or follow up with Ray at WYRZ from WMYJ, to resolve the situation Ray will begin the process of reporting the interference to the FCC. Approval for WMYJ was most likely an oversight but at this point, WYRZ will have to show the numerous attempts to resolve the issue on their own, as well as the disapproval and disappointment from listeners regarding the interruption.

“We need to hear from our listeners,” Ray said.

“We need people that have been listening and haven’t been able to due to the interference from the other station and they aren’t happy about this change.”

In order to lend support and log a complaint, contact the station at 317-8521610, email info@wyrz. org or email Ray directly at shane@wyrz.org.

Ray interviews local leaders like Avon Police Assistant Chief Brian Nugent (right) regarding an upcoming fundraising event.

ily and duty. With a local training facility, the 196 K9 teams in Central Indiana, would be able to train more often, at less cost and provide a location close to home which the entire community could benefit from.

K9’s provide safety to law enforcement, military and others and have saved countless lives.

“The dogs are tools for law enforcement personnel,” Brandon said. “They are very effective and law enforcement considers them to be a ‘force multiplier’. They do everything from search and rescue to bomb sniffing with TSA. They really do serve us.

They are highly trained and serious athletes, serving alongside those that protect us.”

The CIK9 Association wants to pay honor and respect to those animals that have worked to protect our police officers and the community. They have a Shadow Fund, a grant for retired K9’s that have major medical issues due to their line of work.

Keith Gray and retired K9 Ttirado drew winners of the evening raffle with prizes ranging from a weekend stay and Brown County Bed and Breakfast to necklaces from Robert Goodman Jewelers.

The event was sponsored by Koorsen Fire and Security, SEBREE Architects, Tactipup, PetPals, ICON, Current, Dixie the Praying Dog, REX Specs, Robert Goodman Jewelers, Hot Box Pizza, Ultimate Canine, Walmart and Fox 59.

Next week, learn how Brandon and Bahary are continuing their work to recognize service animals on a national level.

Community Celebrates Matt Alexander with Fundraiser

Matt Alexander played for AJAA and Avon High School for many years.

By Melissa Gibson In April 2021, eight people were killed and several more injured as a gunman opened fire at the Indianapolis FedEx facility.

Thirty-two-year-old Matt Alexander, an Avon High School graduate, was one of those victims, changing his family and community forever.

“Matt had a heart of gold,” Debbie Alexander, Matt’s mother said. “We heard so many cool stories the night of the viewing. We had no idea our son had touched so many people.”

The avid sports fan loved the St. Louis Cardinals, St. Louis Blues, Butler basketball and the Buffalo Bills.

“He loved to travel and on the drop of a dime, he’d do anything for anybody, not just close friends or family,” father, Brad Alexander said. “He’d always say, ‘thank you’ and friends and family knew that coming from Matt it was deep from the heart. That night at the viewing, we knew what kind of son we had, but never knew how many lives he touched. It was so gratifying to see that we had an idea but never to this extent.”

His only sibling, younger sister Michelle, grew up on the baseball fields with him and misses his dry sense of humor and thoughtfulness.

Alexander began playing T-ball at the age of five and participated in baseball and basketball through AJAA. He then played for Avon High School and even came back the first two summers at Butler University to umpire at AJAA. “We were pretty close, explained Michelle. “I’m a Type A and he’s Type B, so we we’re complete opposites, but we complemented each other. We were big on being a family of four and it feels weird without him, I’m missing my other half.”

He was laid back, had a large group of friends and liked to go with the flow, but made a name for himself with his giving and energetic spirit.

“You knew he loved you,” Debbie said. “He had an infectious smile and a fun laugh. If a friend called and said, ‘Let’s go to a game’, he’d go in a heartbeat.”

Literally, overnight, the community of Avon began surrounding the family with love and support.

“Our faith and God has placed the right people in our path at the right moment for the past six months. We were overwhelmed by the outpouring of support; the meal trains, all the people asking what they could do… those are the things that got us through the first couple of weeks,” Debbie said.

Within hours, the Avon baseball team was recognizing Alexander with a moment of silence, the flag flown at half mass and an official retiring of Alexander’s number 16.

Over the summer, members of the Avon Police Department, Avon Community School Corporation and the Danville Police Department quietly worked to deliver an official Cardinals jersey with Alexander’s No. 16 on the back, with Hall of Fame Cardinal, Ozzie Smith’s signature. They had a letter from the Cardinals as well as a jersey made by the Indianapolis Indians with the No. 16 and the special acts of support didn’t stop.

As the family was planning the funeral for Alexander, they came up with an idea to ensure Alexander could continue coaching and leading young men through baseball.

They established the Matt Alexander Baseball Memorial Scholarship Fund, a non-profit, 501c3 and plan to award a $1,600 scholarship to an Avon High School baseball player with plans for the future in May. As a ‘thank you’ to the community, Debbie said the free Zander Community Night at the AJAA fields, from 4-9 p.m. Oct 22 will be a great evening for families.

Matt Alexander and his sister, Michelle, loved to spend time together and with their family.

An online auction will begin Oct. 18 through Oct. 24 and includes autographed items from Tony Dungy, Bob Knight, Danica Patrick and the Colts. Week-long trips to Florida, home décor and more are also up for auction.

The items will be displayed at the AJAA fields during the event.

There will be a live DJ, a dunking-for-dollars tank, a first responders baseball tournament (including Avon, Plainfield and Danville Police as well as Brownsburg Fire), a police dog exhibition at 6:15 and appearances by Dixie the Praying Dog, popular sports mascots and more.

On Oct. 23 and 24, 8U, 10U, 11U and 13U baseball and14U, 16U, girl’s fastpitch, men’s and co-ed slow-pitch softball tournaments will be underway at the AJAA fields and nearby RBJ fields. Participate in the tournament costs $300 and each team will receive 12 custom T-shirts, featuring a special phrase the family feels describes Alexander the best.

Tournament fees, T-shirts for sale and other donation opportunities will all go toward the Memorial Scholarship.

“Live a Good Story” is the message the family hopes to share and spread in memory of their son, but also to encourage the good in the world.

“Spend time with your family,” Debbie said. “Tell them you love them, give them a big hug. When something horrible like this happens, remember to celebrate their life.

Just live a good story and live your life to the fullest.”

The family has made a bucket list of items they’d like to plan in honor of Alexander, including a trip to the Buffalo Bills/Colts game scheduled in late Nov.

After 67 Years, National Guard Armory Still Serves

A telephone caller to The Republican office asked where to take donations for the Afghanistan refugees at Camp Atterbury. “I think it was the Legion,” they said. We replied that it was the Armory. “Where’s that?”

For 67 years, the National Guard Amory at Danville has serve the Nation in time of need and provided a space for many community activities.

In 1950, it was announced that appropriations had been approved for the construction of six armories in Indiana.

Captain Sam Eggers of the local National Guard reported that Hendricks County had a good chance of scoring one of the buildings.

The Hendricks County Commissioners agreed that if chosen, they would donate 4.76 acres to the State of Indi-ana as a site for the armory.

In 1953, stakes were set for the building located east of where the new Hendricks County Jail is currently being built. The proposed cost was around $190,000, with 25% coming from the State of Indiana and 75% contributed by the federal government.

The 14,000 sq ft. building would be modeled after the one located in Greencastle. It would be faced with brick and include a 60 x 40 ft. auditorium. The building would contain offices, lockers, showers, kitchen, and storage areas. It would be available for public use except on drill nights or other military uses.

In June, 1953, a benefit, “On Stage America” for the National Guard was organized and held at the Danville Park. It featured a amateur talent contest and Tiny Tot Popularity Contest. Brucie Baker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Rawley Baker, was crowned King and Candy Wellman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Wellman, Jr. was voted Queen of the Tots. A total of $391 was raised.

The Amory was dedicated on November 9, 1954. John Hughes, prominent Indianapolis attorney was the principal speaker.

On November 27, the new building was the site for “You Can’t Beat Fun,” a comedy directed Elizabeth Osborne, featuring a cast of local “celebrities” including Fr. Anthony McLaughlin, Marion Sanders, Hugh Weaver, El-mer Davission, Chuck Cummins, Bill Piel, Charles McCo-llum, Hugh Miller and Marvin Cassity, and Lloyd Hadley. The show was sponsored by the Danville National Guard, Co. H, 151st Infantry Regiment, to benefit recreational fa-cilities for the Armory.

Over the next half-century, the building served by the National Guard and the community. When the 4-H Fairgrounds were established on the land adjoining to the west, exhibitions were housed there.

In 1968, the Hendricks County Medical Society sponsored a massive measles immunization clinic.

The auditorium made a perfect setting for auction sales for many years.

In the 1990’s, the Danville Tri Kappa hosted its annual Kappa Kloset there.

The Hendricks County Humane Society hosted its Dogtona event there for several years before moving to the present fairgrounds.

Blood drives were often held inside the Armory. Also basketball games and wrestling tournaments, In 2008, Members of the 38th Military Police occupied the Armory as they prepared for deployment to Iraq. A visit by a reporter for The Republican “found some of the young men and women, clad in desert camouflage, tossing footballs back and forth during a break in the training exercises.”

While those fairly new to Danville might pass it by without notice, many recognize it as an important part of Hendricks county history as it continues its role in National Guard.

Danville Merchant Chatter Ruff House Adventures “Four on the Floor” Are you tired of your dog jumping on you or other people? Does your dog get excited when you come home? It’s great they are excited to see us, but getting scratched doesn’t feel that good. Or you may be tired from work, and don’t have the energy at the moment. This is a common issue, and with a little training this behavior could be fixed. Continue reading if this happens with your doggie.

“Four on the Floor” is a great training tactic. At the times your dog jumps, don’t look at them or give any pats. You don’t want to reward the dog for doing a behavior that is not wanted. You should continue to ignore your dog until they have all four paws on the floor. Immediately reward after all their paws on the floor, start giving your dog some pats and “good doggie”.

The Danville Town Council started the October 6 meeting with a resolution honoring Danville resident Connie Lawson for her many years of public service. Mrs. Lawson served as Clerk of Hendricks County from 1989-1996; served in the Indiana Senate from 1996 - 2012, where she was the first woman to serve and Majority Floor Leader; and served as Indiana Secretary of State from 2012 - 2021, making her the longest serving Secretary to date.

In other business, the Council decided to stay with NFP as Insurance Agent of Record.

Say It Ain’t So, Santa!

With little fanfare and quite a bit of the sound of chainsaws, the community Christmas tree on the north side of the court house yard was rcently cut down and cleared away.

That tree was planted in memory of H. Hunt Palmer (1955-2000), a member of the Hendricks County Council (see photo at right). The tree was showing signs of damage with many of the interior branches broken off.

A new Christmas tree was planted on the southside of the court house last July, a cooperative effort between the Downtown Danville Partnership, Hendricks County, and the Town of Danville. It will be several years before a ladder, let alone a scissor lift, will be needed to decorate the new tree, but Santa has entered it in his GPS.

Puffball Makes Appearance

When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.

Alexander Graham Bell

The Danville Warriors are in the middle of another great season of football as they stand poised to make a second consecutive run at a state title. There are times, however, when what happens on the gridiron is dwarfed by what happens outside of the confines of a game and will have an even greater impact on the life of students, and the community.

It was Senior night at Danville last Friday. As is customary on a such a night, senior football players, cheerleaders, team assistants, and band members took a stroll across the field with family members to their left and to their right, in a moment designed to recognize the contributions made by the students in their time at Danville High School, and to say ‘thank you’ to the supportive parents and siblings who were a part of the journey.

One-by-One, the senior names were called and with family in tow, they made their way across field before stopping on the home-team sideline. All was going as you would expect until football player, Hayden Lamb’s name was called.

The announcement of Lamb’s name started just as everyone else’s. As he began his walk across the field with his mom, the announcer said his father’s name and explained that he was not there because of his active military duty status. Everyone was surprised and began to cheer as Hayden’s father began walking from the north end of the field as the announcer continued the introduction by explaining that he was able to return home for this special night. Once Hayden realized what was going on, he turned and saw his father and they instantly embraced. The crowd cheered, and for at least that moment, the task at hand for the night was a distant thought. It was a touching moment that left hardly a dry eye in the stadium. Congratulations to all who were able to make that happen!

Oh yes…the football game.

This night marked the second time Coach Jayme Comer had to face his old team since leaving an assistant role at Western Boone (Webo) to take the head coaching job in Danville before the 2020-2021 season. He would look to go 2-0 against his former club.

While Webo was not the same team that dominated just a couple of years ago, they entered the contest with a 5-2 record and a game that carried a little more importance because of the history. This did not seem to matter to the Warriors as they started the game the same way they start many games this year: On fire offensively and defensively.

Webo took the opening possession but was quickly met by a stiff Warrior defense when Trey Morrell intercepted a pass from Quarterback Elliott Young. He returned it to the Webo 17 yard line, giving Danville quarterback Kale Payne a short field. The Warrior offense wasted no time scoring as Andrew Poppa ran it in from 7-yards out to give the home team an early 7-0 lead.

The defense for Danville continued its stingy play stopping the Stars and forcing a punt. On the first play of their next possession, Matthew McGovern had one of his best runs of the season when he ran 35 yards, taking the ball down to the Webo 32-yard line. A few plays later, Payne ran it on the keeper for 16 yards and the score, giving the Warriors a 14-0 lead with 5:15 left in the first quarter.

Danville would eventually take a 21-0 lead before the Stars kept it respectable with a 64-yard toss from Young for the score. The point-after-try was missed so the score remained 21-6. The Warriors would quickly answer with a 34-yard pass from Payne to BJ Wuest just before the half to give Danville a 28-6 lead going into the locker room.

Danville controlled this game from start to finish and added another to the win column with a final score of 34-13.

Payne finished 19-23 for 198 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Poppa ran the ball 17 times for 65 yards and two scores.

Next up for Danville is the regular season finale as they travel to North Montgomery.

They drew Greencastle for the first round of the Sectional and will host them on Friday, October 22 at 7pm.

MINOR CHILD NOTICE TO NAMED FATHER Brandon Marquis Shirley who has been named the father of the child born to Kiara Fuller on July 6, 2008, or who claims to be the father of the child born to Kiara Fuller on July 6, 2008, is notified that a petition for adoption of the child was filed in the office of the clerk of Hamilton County Superior Court, 1 Hamilton County Square, Noblesville, IN 46060.

If Brandon Marquis Shirley seeks to contest the adoption of the child, he must file a motion to contest the adoption in accordance with IC 31-19-10-1 in the above named court not later than thirty (30) days after the date of service of this notice.

If Brandon Marquis Shirley does not file a motion to contest the adoption within thirty (30) days after service of this notice, the above named court will hear and determine the petition for adoption. His consent will be irrevocably implied and he will lose his right to contest either the adoption or the validity of his implied consent to the adoption. He will lose his right to establish his paternity of the child, by affidavit or otherwise, in Indiana or any other jurisdiction.

Nothing Kiara Fuller or anyone else says to Brandon Marquis Shirley relieves Brandon Marquis Shirley of his obligations under this notice.

Under Indiana law, a putative father is a person who is named as or claims that he may be the father of a child born out of wedlock but who has not yet been legally proven to be the child’s father. For purposes of this notice, Brandon Marquis Shirley is a putative father under the laws in Indiana regarding adoption.

This notice complies with IC 31-19-4-5 but does not exhaustively set forth a putative father’s legal obligations under the Indiana adoption statutes. A person being served with this notice should consult the Indiana adoption statutes.
