New director of Nursing for Sigourney Care and Assisted Living

Sigourney Community School District Boundries

Special Election for School Board

By Amber Kephart NR Editor

The Sigourney Community School District will host a special election in April. This election is asking the community to vote for the school district to go from all district board members to all at large board members. Currently to

be a board member you have to live in the district that has an open position. Only residents in that district can vote for that candidate.

Superintendent Dave Harper said, “This makes it hard to get board members because of this strict criteria.” He is asking the community to allow them to go all at large with board members. This means there

would be no more districts, which would allow anyone to run for a position on the board and allow anyone to vote for any of those school board members. Harpers goal by doing this is to encouraging more community members to run for school board. There are two appointed school board members up for election in April.

Becca Yule (Wickenkamp) is the newest addition to the staff at Sigourney Care and Assisted Living. Becca will be filling the position as the Director of Nursing. She will be responsible for managing the nursing and aide staff to give the best possible care to the residents, a support system for the staff and residents, admissions, scheduling and making sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. Her passion is to be a great advocate for the residents, many of them don’t have family close by to be that person for them.

Yule intends to be very hands on; she does not want to be cooped up in the office. There is a lot of paperwork that goes with the job, but she wants to be out and about. She wants to be a constant for her residents and her staff. She has an open door policy and even joked that she is going to put a sign on her door that says candy, with an arrow.

She wants to encourage the staff, residents and family to come in and feel comfortable with her.

Yule currently resides between Ollie and Packwood with her husband Mark and daughter Ava. She was raised in Washington and graduated from Washington High School. She received her associates in Nursing from Indian Hills Community College. She spent three years working for Hospice Compassus and most recently was employed at the United Presbyterian Home in Washington. From a very young age Yule said she wanted to be a nurse so she could help people.

When asked why she chose assisted living, her response was “ I like to create happy moments for the elderly and I hate seeing them mistreated.” She also loves the fact that she has 50 plus grandmas.

The staff at Sigourney Care and Assisted Living is happy to have Becca join their team. Community Liaison Director, Cindy Murphy states, “Becca is a great asset here and we are looking forward to having her on our team.”

On The Hill With Klein

by State Representative Jarad Klein

Week 9 follows the first funnel (the date a bill must be out of committee to be still under consideration), and as usual form is a week we mostly debate on the House Floor. This week rather than focus on one or two key issues, I will summarize several bills that are House Priorities and survived the first funnel.

Collective Bargaining/Arbitration Reform The playing field is wildly tipped in favor of public-sector unions and against the taxpayers. HSB 204 begins to level that playing field for school boards and administrators in negotiating contracts with teachers unions. The bill makes three small, yet very significant changes to the binding arbitration section of the Iowa Public Employment Relations Act: Private Sector Comparison: Requires an arbitrator to consider a private sector worker’s comparison of wages, hours, and conditions of employment when rendering an arbitration decision. Under current law an arbitrator can only look at a comparison of other public sector worker’s wages and benefits.

Ability to Pay and Tax: Prohibits an arbitrator to consider the ability of the public employer to levy taxes, and the ability of the public employer to finance economic adjustments. Currently arbitrators are required to consider the fact that the public employer can raise taxes to pay for increased wages or benefits.

Selection of a Midpoint: Allows an arbitrator to pick between the two parties final impasse item offers, rather than one or the other which is required by current law.

Student Data Privacy HF 582 puts additional protections for student data collected by school districts and the state Department of Education. There must data collection, privacy and sharing policies for students and there must be parental access to student data along with data breach, retention and destruction plans. Additionally the state cannot include, among other things, health, family voting or political information in student files.

2nd Amendment Protections Under HF 527 Iowans will still renew their carry permit every 5 years, but will only be required to retrain every 10 years. Additionally the bill allows parents to train their children under the age of 14 how to safety operate and pistol or revolver. The bill legalizes suppressors and creates a process for a chief law enforcement officer to approve the paperwork necessary for the purchase of a suppressor. Finally the bill creates permit privacy for gun owners. Permits to carry and permits to purchase would no longer be public information.

This information remains available to law enforcement. The bill was sent to the Senate on March 10 with bipartisan support.

Synthetic Drugs HF 279 was amended and passed unanimously out of the House Public Safety Committee. The bill focuses on Iowa’s fight against synthetic drugs. HF 279 reorganizes the synthetic drug list and makes it clear in the code as well as adding additional chemicals approved by the Board of Pharmacy. Additionally, the bill gives the legislature two years (instead of 60 days) to approve synthetic drugs temporarily designated as schedule I substances by the pharmacy

Bingo will be held at the Keokuk County Fairgrounds in What Cheer every Sunday through March 2015. 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in Thomas Hall.

board. Finally HF 279 treats simulated substances and imitation substances the same for prosecution. This language is key to stopping the spread of synthetic drugs throughout the state.

529 College Savings Treats Iowa Educational Savings Plans, or 529’s, like IRA’s allowing tax deductible contributions into plans until April 30. HF 124 passed the House earlier this session and is awaiting action in the Senate Ways & Means Committee.

HF 139 – Supplemental State Aid Law Change HF 139 amends supplemental state aid (SSA) language, requiring that SSA be set in each odd-numbered year for the fiscal year that starts July 1 of that calendar year, within the first 30 days of session, and for the fiscal year that starts July 1 of the following calendar year, by the end of the legislative session. This is applicable to categorical SSA as well.

HF 122 – Principal as an Operational Sharing Incentive HF 122 amends the operational sharing incentives provisions that were changed in 2013 and 2014 by adding principals to the eligible list. 2013’s language changed the weighting from a “per-pupil” formula to a “per-function” formula. Rather than calculating the incentives received based on the number of pupils in the district, it is based on a function basis. A principal position is designated as a weighting of 5.

HF 384 – Use of Physical Plant and Equipment Levy (PPEL) Funds This bill expands the use of PPEL to include the repair of equipment and technology, school busses, and recreational equipment purchased with PPEL dollars.

HF 515 – Management Levy for Mediation and Arbitration Costs This bill adds an additional eligible expense by allowing the cost of mediation and arbitration, including legal costs, to be paid for out of the Management Levy.

HF 228 – Transitional Coaching Authorization Addresses occasional coaching shortages in some districts by creating a Transitional Coaching Authorization that allows a district to hire a non-teacher coach for a sports team, provided the coach is at least 21 and completes the required coursework in the first year.

The license is valid only for one year, may not be renewed, and is only good for the hiring district.

HF 421 – CTE Instructor Classroom Experience Current code requires an instructor in the Career Technical Education field, absent a degree in the field of study, to have special training and at least 6000 hours of recent and relevant work experience. The bill would allow a teacher licensed to teach in high school and holding a CTE endorsement to count classroom instruction in a CTE subject area to towards the 6000 hour total.

That’s it for this week; week 10 will continue floor debate and resume committee duties. If you need to contact me before the upcoming forums you can reach me in Des Moines through the House switchboard at 515-281-3221, or email me at jarad.klein@legis.iowa.gov.

If all else fails, you can also call or text me on my cell phone at 515-689-5430.

Local Schools Make Best Decisions For Students

Iowa’s public and private schools won’t be able to start next school year before the week of September 1 because of a recent decision by Governor Branstad. The announcement surprised many schools, educators and parents.

For years, school calendar decisions have been made by local school boards based on their own community and student needs.

Many schools have already approved next year’s school calendar because parents and students schedule their plans around the start of school, athletics and holiday breaks.

Supporters argue that local control over school calendars is necessary for several reasons, including: • Dual-enrollment classes - Some want to align with a local college or university so that students can also take classes for college credit.

• Summer college courses - Teachers and students can take summer

college courses when local school and college calendars align.

• Advanced Placement - Many students take Advanced Placement exams for college credit. The date of these exams is set nationally in early May. A later start date means less time for students to prepare.

• Scheduling exams - Many schools want to give first semester exams before winter break. This practical approach requires less reviewing and makes more time for new learning in the second semester.

Ensuring student achievement and success is the responsibility of our schools. The directive from the Governor to require a later school start date conflicts with ensuring students’ educational needs come first.

That’s why I voted this week for SF 227, which would allow the school calendar to be a local decision, taking into account local needs.

English Valleys FFA to Host 2nd Annual Farmer’s Share of the Dollar Breakfast The Farmer’s Share of the Dollar breakfast was such a hit last year; the English Valleys FFA has decided to make it an annual event.

The breakfast will be held Saturday, April 4 from 8-10 a.m. The retail cost of the breakfast is $7.00$8.00 dollars but patrons will only be charged $1.00. This signifies the share that the producers get from the total cost of the breakfast. Many sponsors help with the breakfast, some of which include: Faas Feed, Cook’s Meat Locker, Rob Veatch of Tyson Meats, Millersburg New Century FS, Cassen’s Mill of Sigourney, Iowa County Farm Bureau, Danielle Render, Mike and Mimi Fisher, Kalona Organics Dairy, and Forrest Hometown Market.

Along with the breakfast, a pie and labor auction will be held. The proceeds from the pie auction will be donated to the Terry Harriman Memorial FFA Scholarship. Last year over $3,000 was raised and $1,500 worth of scholarships handed out. Everyone in the community is encouraged to donate pies. This

is a great way to get your dessert for your Easter dinner! Mrs. Flander will be at the high school from 4:00-7:00 p.m. Friday, April 3rd, or they can be brought the day of the auction.

The FFA labor auction is scheduled after the pie auction. Over 40 FFA members will be sold and will volunteer 8 hours of work to the buyer. The proceeds from this auction will go into the FFA’s general fund and will help fund conferences, such as state and national FFA convention, along with various other leadership development event. Besides the chapter greenhouse and the 5 acre test plot, this is the only fundraiser that the FFA chapter utilizes to raise fund for activities.

The breakfast will be located in the high school cafeteria and the auction will start at 10 a.m. in the old gymnasium. If you have questions, you may contact Mrs. Flander at 319.664.3632 or kflander@ english-valleys.k12.ia.us. Come on out and support the English Valleys FFA and farmers everywhere!

What is the Iowa Public Information Board (IPIB)?

Editor’s Note: This is a monthly column prepared by the Iowa Public Information Board to update Iowans on the IPIB’s activities and provide information on some of the issues routinely addressed by the board.

QUESTION: What are the powers and duties of the IPIB? ANSWER: The IPIB is an independent agent authorized by statute (Iowa Code chapter 23) to issue advice, or declaratory orders with the force of law, regarding the applicability of the open meetings (Chapter 21) and open records (Chapter 22) laws.

It can receive and investigate complaints alleging violations of the laws and seek resolution through an informal process. If a complaint cannot be resolved informally, and the IPIB has probable cause to believe the law has been violated, the board may prosecute the government body or ofcial in a contested-case proceeding under the Administrative Procedures Act (Chapter 17A).

The IPIB can issue subpoenas to investigate complaints and prosecute cases, and it can also issue orders with the force of law to require compliance with

the sunshine laws.

The IPIB also offers training in Chapters 21 and 22 to government bodies, disseminates information to the public, submits an annual report to the Governor and Legislature and makes recommendations relating to access to government information.

QUESTION: What are the limits of the IPIB jurisdiction?

ANSWER: The IPIB does not have jurisdiction over the judicial or legislative branches, or over the Governor and Governor’s ofce. A complaint must be led with 60 days from the time the alleged violation occurred or the complainant could have become aware of the violation with reasonable diligence.

QUESTION: Do I have to file a public meetings or records complaint with the IPIB instead of going to court? If I file a complaint

with the board and am dissatisfied with the result, can I appeal?

ANSWER: Any person, the Attorney General or a County Attorney seeking to enforce open meetings and records laws can bring the complaint before the IPIB, or the individual can bring an action in state district court, as under current law. If more than one party simultaneously brings an action before the IPIB and in court, the court shall stay the case pending resolution of the complaint by the IPIB. A nal IPIB order is subject to judicial review.

QUESTION: Where can I find out more information about the IPIB? ANSWER: The IPIB has a website: www.ipib.iowa.gov. You can also contact the IPIB staff by phone at 515.725.1781, by fax at 515.725.1789 or by email at IPIB@iowa.gov.

Keokuk County Society News

Tales of the Ancient Sportsman

By Burdell Hensley

Yes it does look like spring. What beautiful weather and I am on the DL (disabled list). I picked up a phantom injury at the Boys State Basketball Tourney Monday, and I have yet to figure what happened. I had just arose from my seat in the stands and found that I could not put much weight on my left leg. There was intense pain in my knee joint and in the area behind my knee.

To my knowledge, I had done nothing to irritate the knee. It just came out of nowhere.

I limped my way through the Monday and Tuesday games and it was a chore. Monday at noon, I watched Belle Plaine compete for the first time ever in the tourney. The bank I work for has a branch in Belle Plaine and some of you people have kids on the team. The Plainsmen played well, but could not hold off a strong Earlham team.

In the last game Monday evening, Aplington-Parkersburg beat a pretty good Woodward Academy team. We also have a branch bank in Parkersburg.

Jolene Krusey is my Connections Club point person at the bank and her husband, Chuck was selected as the A-P fan of the game.

Tuesday I was back for the Pella Christian game against Western Christian at noon. PC upset the defending champions and moved on. It was probably the best I have seen the Eagles play. Also My good friend, Dick Vander Laan was the PC fan of the game.

In the late evening game I covered the Pella game with Cedar Rapids Xavier.

Pella gave it all they had but couldn’t stay with a tough Xavier squad. The special thing about this game was that Stan and Carla Eysink were named the fans of the game for Pella. Carla was one of my students and athletes at Eddyville when she was Carla Ferguson.

Wednesday I had no game to cover so I decided to try and play golf. I figured that with a cart, I could do it. Wrong!

Jane Green Larson

After five holes I had to give it up. I could not put much weight at all on my left leg. I went home and iced it down and that seemed to help. Surely I would be able to go back Thursday.

I did go back Thursday for the A-P game with Treynor at 2:00 and the Pella Christian game with Iowa City Regina at 3:45. Both A-P and PC lost so that meant that they would meet in the third place game on Friday. I just could not do it again, but PC did win 64-51 on the strength of 11 three point baskets.

I tried to save my strength for Friday evening as the twin grandson’s were running for Ottumwa in Pekin’s indoor track meet at Central field house in Pella. The meet was delayed an hour because of the funeral of a Pekin student who was killed in a tragic accident last week. Then with about 20 different girls and boys teams invited, the meet took forever. I finally had to give it up at 8:45.

I could not stand any longer and I had to get home to some ice.

I did nothing Saturday and I have decided that maybe this aging thing should be taken seriously. I will slow down next week. I have no games to cover and I plan on complete rest. Maybe by the end of the week I can get on the golf course again. I will get this knee checked out, but my athletic training background tells me that it is a case of tendonitis. And no, I am not getting a cane or a walker.

The Ancient-ess has been slaving over our income taxx (Yes it is a four letter word). Every year it gets more complicated and every year I owe more. I have got to work harder. There are millions who are depending on me to let them go scott free.

There is good news. Baseball is back, although it is spring training games that are quite meaningless. I watched the Cardinals play the Twins on both Saturday and Sunday. I didn’t recognize most of the players and they were using a lot of minor leaguers. Saturday a big rookie lefthander probably pitched himself

into a ticket to Memphis as he gave up four runs in a Cardinal loss. Sunday the teams tied after nine innings and there were no extra innings. That would cut into their beach time to much.

The NCAA pairings are complete and three Iowa teams are in. As a former athletic director, I have a hard time understanding some of the things the NCAA does. Iowa is in and they play Davidson, a team from the Carolinas, in the South Region, but the game is to be played in Seattle. Really? That is called gouging the fans. And UNI is in the East Region and they play Wyoming in Seattle. Iowa State has the only decent draw as they play UAB in Louisville.

I was saddened this week when I received my hometown paper and found the obituary of one of my heroes. Verlain Rathkamp passed away at 94 and he was a class act. Verlain was the shortstop for the Lyman Cardinals in the old Nodaway Valley semi-pro league.

When Verlain teamed with Hank Mueller at third base there was very little that got through the left side of the Cardinal infield. Verlain was a friend to everybody and the only weakness we had was that he was a Cub fan. 94 years and he never saw his team win a world series. Life is too short to be a Cub fan.

It is time to look back at our yesterdays and it was a dead time for sports activity in late March and early April.

100 years ago: Mar. 16, 1915- The Ball Park Comedians have reorganized and will be on the field this year for games with any teams in their class. Jim Hilleary is the manager and George Carr is the captain. Mar. 20- Penn closed the season by walloping Parsons 32-19.

Cadwallader led Penn with 12 points.

The Penn girls won 21-9 as Miss Reese scored 14 points. Mar. 22- Ottumwa beat Clinton 46-23 to win the high school state championship.

75 years ago: Mar. 18, 1940- Mason City beat Ames 41-30 for the state basketball title. Mar. 23- Alice Terpstra, Lynnville star guard, wasted little time in

Hilda Souer

swinging into amateur play.

She joined the Thompson Beauty School team and turned in a swell game. Fremont’s Ruth Reeves has been with AIB of Des Moines for two years.

50 years ago: Mar. 16, 1965- Grinnell crushes Marshalltown 82-61 to gain a state berth. Mar. 18- Pekin’s Susie Meyers and Nancy Reinier were third team selections on the IDPA All-State teams.

Mar. 22- Osky sophomore, Brent Slay, finished third in the 440 dash at the USTFA state indoor meet at Drake Fieldhouse.

25 years ago: Mar. 16: Pella Christian came back from 17 points down to beat Western Christian 60-57 and advance to the Class 2-A state finals.

Montezuma advanced to the Class 1-A finals with a 73-66 win over Postville.

Mar. 17- Montezuma wins the Class 1-A title with a 73-55 win over West Marshall, and Pella Christian crushed Forest City 81-55 for the Class 2-A crown. Montezuma’s Rich Grife and Jamie Arendt were all tourney and Pella Christian’s Mark Van Gorp and Eric Pothoven were also all tourney.

Mar. 22- Tri-County’s Dawn Striegle was named to the second all-state team at guard by the INA. Pella Christian’s Karen VandeVoort was third team as a guard and Eddyville guard, Brenda Roberts was a fifth team pick.

Have a great week and enjoy a slower pace for a while.

Ponderings of the Heart

It is now March and it seems the sun is shining, yet remains chilly and it makes a good case of “cabin fever” set right in!

Well, I have the solution! Read on, if you are interested.

My husband, Dick, can think of more things to do on a daily basis and as my mother used to say, “More things to do than Carter has liver pills!” So, early one morning as he was telling me all the things he had on his daily agenda, I made a suggestion! “Let’s take the afternoon off and go to Grinnell and visit the Second Mile Thrift Store and top the day off with a late lunch at the Candyland Station, I will pay.” Ah! This got his attention real fast! My niece, Shirley Tremmel from Searsboro had previously taken me to this fascinating place, the Candyland Diner, and so in turn I had taken Dick there soon after my first visit, however that was two years ago and we simply had not taken the time to go back. I also told him I would like to stop on a road by Deep River to see the eagles. We had heard they were now starting to gather before going north. I have to tell you, eagles have always fascinated me. A few years ago, I held a

whole series of lessons at our Church in Des Moines for the children in Vacation Bible School and they loved it. There are several verses in the Bible in which to build life lessons from the eagles.

Anyway, much to my surprise, Dick thought this idea was a good one too (after all I had offered to pay for the lunch). So by 1:00 p.m. we were off to see the eagles. I immediately saw 18 resting in the trees or flying in the sky.

My camera is not much good taking far away pictures, so I snapped only a few.

By 2:00 p.m., we entered the doors of the Second Mile Thrift Store. The people that work as volunteers are cheerful and friend, a person cannot help but be lifted and feeling better about the day. I did not spend much money, but I had a great time looking through the store! It was almost 2:45 p.m. when we entered the doors of the Candyland Station and Diner. It is located at 831 West Street, Grinnell. The owners are Doug and Roberta Lee. The station was built in 1931 and the diner came in existence after the Cunningham Drug closed its doors.

A soda fountain was in the drugstore until it closed in 2003. Thusly it was purchased and moved to the Candyland Diner.

The décor of the diner has memorabilia of the 1950’s. The jukebox plays as the owner kept feeding it and we enjoyed tune after tune of 50’s music. We actually sang along to The Tennessee Waltz. My dad used to sing that wonderful old song to me as a kid. A pair of girl’s roller skates with pom poms sat on the floor directly beside the jukebox.

How I remember my white skates when I was a teenager! I made my own pom poms out of red and white yarn from my mother’s sewing basket. I remember this vividly because my mother scolded me for using her yarn without asking.

Pictures of World War II service men deck one wall with other Grinnell artifacts. The impressive menu boasts of times gone by with a photo of a red and white 57 Chevrolet on the menu cover. This brought back memories of my high school friend, Janice Huffman Tish when she dated her now husband and they rode around in his 1957 brown and white Chevrolet. Food items range from sandwiches to items such as salads, fountain cokes, and only 50 cents to add a vanilla, chocolate, or cherry flavoring.

I remember cherry cokes from Clutters Drug Store in What Cheer years ago.

The Candyland Diner offers shakes,

malts and sundae. The specialty item is a Sundae which is a dip of vanilla ice cream with marshmallow and chocolate topping and Spanish peanuts scattered all over the bowl. Oh, they also have Root Beer in a frosty mug that can be made into a float. They offer Green Rivers and numerous other items. They have a good variety of food and memories of days gone by will promptly begin to flow into your heart and mind!

Dick and I simply spent an hour eating and pondering of long ago. Roberta not only fed us well, smiled and visited with all the customers, but also invited us to sign her well used guest book. Now, I would like to invite you to take a little “spin” over to Grinnell and enjoy the atmosphere of the Candyland Station and Diner. On our ride home, my husband said, “Let’s not take so long before we return…and next time it’s on me!” With that said, I am ready to have a hot dog and I’m thinking maybe we’ll share one of their old fashioned malts too!

We were late getting back as we had a late start.

Bobby Rauch and Mona came Saturday and brought some sugar-free caramel corn she had made. One was

plain and the other was Root beer flavor. I ate a bunch, and Kenny really liked it too. They had to pick up Bobby’s tax returns in Grinnell and we went to Second Mile and Goodwill. They took me out to lunch at the Brooklyn Café on I-80. Kenny stayed home till later and went after something for his tractor at Riley’s in Grinnell. Adam rode along to pick up Myla for a day and overnight with him. Her hair is so long, she is having it cut to donate to make wigs for children with cancer.

In the days and weeks prior to July 4 and 5, 1975 several in the Delta area, as well as former residents, were busier than usual. The reason was because Delta’s Centennial observance was held on those days. Then the nation’s Bicentennial was in the following year of 1967.

In thinking back to the special years I remember my mother compiling the history book about our town’s history as well as my writing some history related items for some newspapers. Then I also remember asking mother to keep some notes, etc. she had written and/or told about. Then, guess what? I was afraid they’d gotten lost in the tornado of June 1984, but were found not long ago. I’ll now share some with you, with this being Part 1.

The town was carved out of cornfields and not timber as was true of many towns at that period of time.

Many of the town’s early buildings were not log cabins but frame buildings moved from the “old” town of Springfield (Northwest of this “new” town). This “new” town’s peak population of 735 persons was between the years 19091919. (When my mother started to Kindergarten the town was 32 years old).

At the time she began school there were two banks. The Delta Savings Bank (located on the corner where the Branch office of the former Hayesville Savings Bank was), and the People’s Savings Bank, (former location of the Farmer’s Union Store). Also there were three Lumber Yards. Mathew Lumber (in the block north of the vacant car wash building). In a few years it was sold to H.H Lynn and in a few years to Spahn and Rose Lumber Co. Which was later re-located to the site across the road and East of the Farmer’s Union Store.

In later years this site was no longer a lumberyard, but was Stanley Feed. The other early lumberyards were by Mark Dugger and sons and another by Richardson Family.

Also during these “peak” years of population the town had three doctors: Dr. Jarvis (my mother was the first baby he delivered). A few years later he sold his practice to Dr. F.F Piercy (married to a Delta girl, Alice Fisher). He later sold his practice to Dr. D.L. Grothaus. It is also interesting to know the home and office of these three doctors was in the same site or located in

the home immediately west of the now vacant Champlain Oil Station.

Another doctor was a local boy, Dr. W.W. Stirlen, whose home and office was two doors west of the present Delta Grocery, and also west of the former Telephone Office. Stirlen’s office was in the lower part of the building or two rooms at the front with the kitchen/dining room to the back. Sleeping quarters for the doctor and his widowed mother were on the second floor. When Dr. Stirlen was married a few years later and their home was in a different location, and his office was located on the site of the now vacant Champlain Gas Station which was built on the site of the Beatty House. Then when the Beatty House was torn down for the gas station, Stirlen moved his office and my mother thought it was where a Dr. W.L. Busby had been awhile. This location was a small wooden building on the site where Delta’s last Post Office was located (now a vacant brick building). The second story was also the site of the Masonic Lodge Hall with Dr. Stirlen’s next office in the smaller part or front of the second floor. Although there is no longer a Post Office at the front of the buildings lower level, the area at the back houses the town’s Fire Department trucks. Dr. Josiah Johnston was another early doctor and one of Delta’s first Masonic Lodge Officers. He moved to Des Moines in 1901.

This brick building was constructed under the idea and efforts of Dr. W. L. Busby whose first office was at the site of the now vacant Champlin Station. Dr. Busby’s second location was at the front of the Masonic Hall, until he passed away. Dr. Busby was also a dedicated Mason and my mother remembered his Masonic funeral with a number of Masons in attendance in Regalia.

Mother also told me that Delta had three general stores: Payne’s (East of the Peoples Savings Bank) and two on Main Street. The concrete block building (where today’s Delta Grocery is located) built

by J.C. Reed, W.C. Dunn and J.R Dunn. The third was Stout and Stought (no relation) and later Stought and Whisler. This store handled not only groceries, but dry goods and some feed kerosene and bought or “took in trade” cream, butter and eggs for awhile. To be continued…

The action climaxes with an amazing naval battle, but who will win “The Hunt for Red October”? Red October did for modern submarine warfare what ‘Das Boot’ did for WWII. It took a concept that is inconceivable to most people (living in a boat underwater with people trying to blow you up) and brought it up close and personal.

because Will was rough at getting the truck moving, he stalled the truck and continued to keep stalling it for what he thought was about 15 minutes. Another one of his favorite stories, was when it took 3 weeks to replace the brakes. The company they ordered from kept sending the wrong size brakes; it took three tries to get it right. While the brakes were being replaced, they continued to drive the truck. This truck has a indestructible metal body and aftermarket suspension making it a perfect Baja 1000 race machine.

“The Hunt For Red October”: A Movie Review

Senior Spotlight

Senior Spotlight

the action/adventure genre did a fabulous job as director. This film focused less on the submarine and its crew than its cousin ‘Das Boot’, and more on the international intrigue angle. McTiernan is very effective in keeping up the pace and giving the viewer riveting suspense as smart torpedoes chase subs through the murky deep.

As always, Sean Connery was powerful as the defecting captain, determined not to allow this first strike weapon to start a nuclear holocaust. Connery gave his character both a conscience and a ruthless commitment, stopping at nothing to reach his goal. Alec Baldwin turns in one of his better performances as Jack Ryan. Unlike Harrison Ford who made Ryan into an action hero in other Tom Clancy adaptations, Baldwin seemed better cast as the CIA nerd who was thrust into a field situation without any real experience. In this way, I felt he was a better representation of the character as Clancy originally wrote him. This is a highly entertaining and engrossing film that will keep most action and suspense viewers on the edge of their seats. I rated it a 9/10 Submarines.

Trapshooting meets. We have a good looking team so far, and we have high goals for ourselves. The ultimate goal, like in every sport, is to make it to state.”

World Views

by Aaron Kitzman Recently, the prime minister of Israel spoke to the U.S. Congress on our attempts at talks with Iran.

He claimed that any talks with Iran will result in consequences. The Congress is split on his words; some wish to continue their talks with Iran while others wish to stop and keep things the way they are. With that said ,perhaps you may have an opinion on the subject. If you would like to weigh in on the issue, all you need to do is message a government official. I know it seems like the government is this impenetrable force where only a few people can speak their minds, but if you really look and pay attention you’ll see that your voice has power to it.

Democracy only works if the people are informed and get involved something. I feel a lot of people have forgotten to have their voice heard.

DHL

By: Lily Hammes, Maddie Berg, and Danielle Stout The Delta Hockey League is off to a great season this year! DHL has four teams participating this year.

The teams include Sigourney Tree Care, County Country Insurance, The Design House Plus, and the Osky Dental. There are five players on each team. Each team has a center, a wing, a defender, a goalie, and a bencher. With three 20 minute periods, each period the goalie changes. We had the opportunity to interview a fellow DHL player, Sarina Gretter. When asked how the season is going, Sarina said, “I am looking forward to an exciting season with my team! I’m hoping for some improvement, not only individually, but as a team.”

30 Day Challenge

By: Lily Hammes, Maddie Berg, and Danielle Stout Mrs. Webb has recently challenged students ranging from junior high to high school to participate in the “unplugging” challenge.

Every single morning when they get to school they’re asked to turn their phones into the office, and they can pick them up at the end of the day. The goal of this is to show students that you don’t have to be on your phones 24/7.

“By unplugging it will help promote and encourage social interaction, which seems to be lacking in today’s society,” says Mrs. Webb. This challenge will push students’ willpower to go 30 days without a cellular device.

Of course the students have a little incentive to do this. If they’re able to keep this up for 30 days, their name will be put into a drawing for an iPad mini. The challenge started with 70 phones and is now down to 60 phones. It’ll be exciting to see how many will be able to stick it out for the entire 30 days!

Sigourney Fire and Rescue responded to a house fire in Sigourney.

Keokuk County Disaster Assistance Team was present for aide.

Emergency Response Units Respond to House Fire in Sigourney

By Amber Kephart, NR Editor Sigourney and Keota Fire Departments responded to a page early Saturday morning to Lonnie and Jenny Bell’s residence. It appears that the fire started in the living room and the cause is still undetermined at this time, but does not appear to be suspicious in nature. Due to the smoke and heat this is more than likely a total loss for the Bells.

Along with the 18 Sigourney firemen and 10 Keota firemen, the Keokuk County Sheriff’s Office, Sigourney Police Department, the Keokuk County Ambulance and Keokuk County Disaster Assistance Team were present.

Wayne and Sandy Smithart, Keokuk County Disaster Assistance Team, are present at any structure fire in Keokuk County.

Keota Fire Department responded for mutual aide. Sigourney and Keota Fire Departments have an agreement that in the event of a structure fire they will respond as mutual aide for the other.

Keokuk Farmer Directs Funds To Richland Community Club

The Richland Community Club has received a $2,500 donation from Keokuk County farmer Judy Weber and America’s Farmers Grow Communities, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund.

The donation will help the organization improve Central Park of Richland for the enjoyment of the 500 residents of the community.

“The Richland Community Club is a service organization that is working to improve our community, whether it is community events or contributing to various community enhancement projects. We are grateful for this donation, which will help us with our proposed pavilion improvement and digital signage project,” said Weber, who also serves as vice president of the club.

For five years, America’s Farmers Grow Communities has collaborated with farmers to donate over $16.5 million to over 7,300 community organizations across rural America. This year winning farmers will direct another $3.3 million to nonprofits to help fight

rural hunger, purchase life saving fire and EMS equipment, support ag youth leadership programs, buy much needed classroom resources, and so much more.

America’s Farmers Grow Communities is part of the America’s Farmers initiative. Since 2010, the America’s Farmers campaign and programs have advocated on behalf of farmers and their efforts to meet society’s needs through agriculture. Today, consumers are more interested than ever in agriculture and how food is grown. Consider joining the conversation and helping to raise awareness about agriculture.

Tri-County MS Leadership Donation

Members of Tri-County’s Ricochet Leadership Program raised $75.87 through a bake sale to benefit children who visit Mahaska Health Partnership’s Emergency Department in Oskaloosa. Shown at the check presentation are, front row, from left: Jason Daughenbaugh, Lucas Haberling, Brayden Monroe, Mikayla Hoover and Avery Roorda. Back row, from left: Angelina McCullough, Emma Miover, MHP Director of Emergency Services Andrea Hagist, Miranda Little, Mariah Seaton and Annabelle Jennings.

Students from Tri-County Community School took on a leadership project and raised funds to benefit children utilizing the visitor’s lounge at Mahaska Health Partnership’s Emergency Services in Oskaloosa. The students were members of Ricochet, a middle school leadership initiative created and sponsored by Iowa State University Extension and Iowa 4-H. According Michele Sieren, who served as co-lead with Jorie Altenhoften from the Keokuk County Extension and Outreach, the group of 10 students met for nine weeks to learn team building and leadership skills.

“Ricochet uses adventure and experience to help build leadership skills as they get involved in a real project that benefits the community,” Sieren said.

“The students wanted to help a local hospital that they could potentially have friends or family taken to in an emergency situation. Mariah Seaton, one of the Richochet members, has a grandmother who works at Mahaska Health Partnership, so it was an easy choice for the students as they worked to raise

money.

“They wanted to have a positive impact on children and agreed that sometimes during an emergency, there can be a lot of waiting around, and children don’t always have time to bring things to stay occupied while waiting on news about their loved ones. That is why they wanted to raise funds toward purchasing books and toys for the visitor’s lounge at Mahaska Health Partnership.”

A total of $75.87 was raised through a bake sale the students sponsored. Sieren said both leaders were very impressed with the effort put forth by all the students. “Everyone brought something for the bake sale,” she said. “We had to find additional tables to fit it all.”

MHP Director of Emergency Services Andrea Hagist, said she has already ordered children’s books with the funds donated by the Ricochet students.

“We are grateful for the donation, but also very impressed by the students who showed real leadership with this project,” Hagist said.

Pekin Gets First Warmup at Pella Indoor

By Adam Meier Regional Sports Editor As crazy as it may seem, track and field is already upon us.

Pekin’s varsity and junior varsity teams were the first area squads to get real action in a meet, last Friday, when the Panthers hosted the Pella Indoor on the campus of Central College.

The Panthers, along with large contingent of other teams, shook of

the rust and competed 11 different events.

Coach Davis Eidahl’s boys’ squad put on a solid showing, placing first in two events and finishing second in four more.

“For our first meet of the year, I was very pleased with the performance of our team,” said Eidahl. “They focused and were mentally ready for the meet.

We had a well-rounded team performance. Our veterans took the lead
