Pride Goeth Before A Fall

I was strutting, as I usually do, until I found myself face-down on the sidewalk. It was a dose of reality that bruised my knee, scraped my ego, and sent my phone sliding down Broadway. I entered an online giveaway. I won four tickets, so I took a couple of the grandkids and stepson Jerry to the Monster Jam in St Louis. Thankfully, Jerry couldn’t imagine riding with me in the city, so he drove. We parked at the Roof of the World and hoofed it to the Dome. We walked down from the 88th fl oor of the Mount Everest Parking Garage and ran into a million freezing pedestrians. I tried to merge, but my feet got confused and I face-planted on the nasty sidewalk. Embarrassed, I tried to pop up, but my knees wouldn’t let me. After decades of abuse and obesity, they went on strike. Jerry had to help me up, just like young people help old people every day. This was the fi rst time I was the “old people”. I wanted to slink away and lick my wounds, but pride got in the way and I went on to the Dome of Death. Do you remember watching TV wildlife shows where a wolf stalks and kills the injured caribou that can’t keep up with the herd? I looked back and the real-life, wolfish, un-welcome-wagon man was following us. After he stayed on my heels through a couple of turns, I turned and stared him down. He spotted a person with a fancier watch and went after new prey. We moved on with the herd and into the Dome. I briefl y wondered if his new prey got away. The free tickets ended up being for seats on the moon. Even though the steep stairs took my breath and what was left of my dignity, I made it thousands of steps to my miniature chair, which was next to Baby Huey. I squeezed into the little plastic vise #4 of row MM, which made me way too cozy with my neighbor. To the tune of overbuilt engines, I sat as well as can be expected. My sitting muscles went numb. My knee throbbed. My ego throbbed. My neighbor grinned at me. I got up and moved to an empty seat two rows away. As I sat in my misery, I noticed a pretty young mother running up the stairs while carrying a largish child. Five minutes later she went back down the stairs, which were steep enough to qualify as a ladder. Minutes later she ran back up. She repeated the regimen for hours. She

must have seen my fear and pain moving up the steps. Maybe she saw me fall earlier and was taunting me. As she skipped up the endless stairs, I started to despise her and her fl exible knees. Far below, on the fi eld, a monster truck fl ipped and threw fl ames and engine parts across the dome. Unlike me, it could be repaired easily. I sulked. We completed the event and made it down and out without consequence. I took more than the recommended dosage of Ibuprofen and went home. I’m not sure what to do with my new self image. I’m the old guy that needs a “Lifecall” because he’s fallen and can’t get up. Maybe this goes with being near my expiration date. It’s really not fair because I never signed an agreement to be old and infi rmed. Now that I’m home in the loving embrace of my recliner, I have time to wrap my mind around my circumstances. I should accept my lot in life and stay off the stairs. I should understand that I can’t do the things that the young wolfs do and embrace being a crippled caribou Continued On Page 15

Per IDPH and CDC, person-toperson spread of COVID-19 appears to be mainly between people who are in close contact with one another (within about six feet) through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It

FMH Bringing 3-D Mobile Digital Mammo Truck To Cisne Clinic Fairfield Memorial Hospital (FMH) will bring its Digital Mammography Truck to the Horizon Healthcare Cisne Medical Clinic for a mobile mammography event on Saturday, May 30th, with appointments starting at 8 a.m. The truck will be set up in front of the clinic, located at 413 Park Street in Cisne. No physician order is needed for those who are over the age of 40; however, it must have been at least one year since your last mammogram (this event is for annual screening mammograms only). Bring your insurance card, photo ID, and doctor’s contact information. Individuals can call the FMH Diagnostic Imaging Department at 618-847-8249 to secure an appointment. Walk-ins are also welcome until 11 a.m., but after 11, patients will be seen by appointment only. Screening mammograms take about 15 minutes to perform. Patients who are over age 40 and do not have any detectable problems or tissue changes at this time need to bring the following information when they come to register: name, birth date, insurance card, and the name of the doctor who they wish the report to be sent. 4

also may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it, then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes. That’s why proper hand hygiene is important in preventing the spread of disease. Signs and symptoms of COVID-19 include fever, cough, shortness of breath, loss of taste/smell, sore throat, ear pain, and muscle aches. Older adults and people with underlying health conditions or compromised immune systems are at a greater risk of developing serious illness from the virus.

New $6 Million Water Treatment

Facility Finished At Wayne City Construction of a $6 million water treatment plant that began in the fall of 2018 on the north edge of Wayne City has been completed. Wayne City Village Clerk Staci Choate confirmed that it will benefit around 600 households in Wayne City and Keenes, plus additional residents in Sims. Wayne City also sells water to the Western Wayne Water District. The new facility—which will go online as soon as they work out the kinks—was built because the existing plant, constructed in the early 1950s, is simply worn out (prior to the construction of that facility, people had their own wells or cisterns). “In 2013, the Village had a study completed to determine which direction would be best to go: remodel the old plant, buy water elsewhere, or build a new one. They decided to build new to maintain control of their destiny,” said Kris Shreve, who has served as water plant superintendent since October 2014. “The new plant is so much more advanced than the old one, as far as being fully automated and things of that nature. “Benefits of the new facility to the community are safe, clean drinking water, and the possibility of luring industry with a more stable water source.” Midwest Petroleum & Excavating, Inc., of Benton was the contractor for the new water plant, which is being funded by a combination of grants and loans; a utility rate increase was implemented last year. The entire project included: ~ a rebuild of the pump station at the Skillet Fork River, from which the Village pumps water into its eight-acre reservoir, which acts as a natural settling basin. The reservoir was built in the early 1980s as part of a major expansion to the old water plant; ~ a rebuild of the pump station at the reservoir; ~ the new water plant; ~ a new bulk water station south of town, and ~ an on-site backup generator that starts almost instantaneously if the power goes out (the old plant has a tractor-type PTO generator that’s not automatic). Wayne City’s new plant—which can store slightly more than the old plant’s 100,000+ gal-

lons—utilizes a conventional filtration system, which according to Shreve is more economical than other state-of-the-art processes. He added, they use dual ClariCones, with water coming through the bottom and out the top with a three-cell sand filter bank. “We have a maximum capacity of 650 gallons per minute, and plan on running it at 500 gallons per minute. As a comparison, the existing plant is maxed-out at 430 gallons per minute,” he noted. “As everything expands, you want to be able to produce more water, so that you leave room for the town to grow.” Plant workers also utilize about a dozen chemicals to purify the water. All chemicals are in liquid form, pumped from a truck into containers that are isolated for safety. If two chemicals aren’t compatible, they are stored in separate rooms. “In the course of a month, we will have zero personal contact with chemicals, whereas at the old plant, we had lots of personal contact. This is a whole lot safer,” Shreve said. He added, the amount of chemicals now being used is greater compared to what was used in the past. “Now you have chemists designing chemicals all the time.

Continued From Last Page are more chemicals (due to increased state regulations), but they also work better than the old ones,” Shreve said. “We used to just run water through the plant, hit it with chlorine, run it through the fi lter, then run it to town. Now you have to meet certain guidelines on clarity. “They’re getting stricter and stricter with that, but it’s for the safety of the public, and that’s a good thing,” he added. “Municipal water is more closely regulated than bottled water. It has to be tested monthly, quarterly, semiquarterly. I’m sending samples off to a lab all the time.” The old plant has continued to meet guidelines, “but is just sliding under the door,” Shreve said. “There are limitations due to the age of that plant.” As for the infrastructure that transports water to townspeople, no additional work has been required yet. “Our water lien system is in good shape. We’ve always updated lines. Our Village Board has always been real progressive on this stuff,” Shreve said. “Like any other small town, we still have some sections of town that need attention, but we will get to them, eventually (with new water lines and mains). You’re always gonna have that because upgrading infrastructure is a continuous thing.” Shreve credited Wayne City Mayor Rocky Hedden as well as trustees Roger Noe, Diane Wood, Ryan Austin, Chris Simpson, Tim Piper, LaDonna McKinney, Choate, and Assistant Clerk Sondy Holleman for offering him “tremendous support” through the process. “The new plant gives us a sense of responsibility and pride,” he said. “This expansion is something for the community to be really proud of.” Shreve began working for the Village in August 1991, Continued On Next Page

Jessica Warren Recruited By College In Iowa; Competed Vs. Boys At FCHS Of all the examples that Jessica Warren has set, this one stands out: persistence pays. The first female to ever wrestle all four years at Fairfield Community High School (FCHS), Warren finished her senior season ranked #10 in the state among girls in her weight class, and has secured a scholarship to wrestle in the women’s division next season for Indian Hills Community College in Centerville, Iowa. Warriors Coach Cole Spree sees big things on the horizon for the 4-11, 147-lb. Warren, who qualified for the Illinois Wrestling Coaches and Officials Association (IWCOA) State Tourney, which is for high school girls and frosh/soph boys. It was called off due to COVID19. “We believe Jessica can be a national qualifier, and if she continues to grow as a wrestler, who knows where she could be by the time she completes her career at Indian Hills,” said Spree. “We see her competing for a starting position and making an immediate impact next season. We understand that she still has some areas that she needs to improve on, but we are excited about the potential she has already shown. “Jessica just needs to continue to get mat time,” he said. “As long as she can do this and continue to stay active throughout the summer, she should be in a great place at the beginning of next school year.” Warren knows she has her work cut out for her, but is pumped about the process. “My biggest weakness is my lack of upper body strength, and over the summer I will be hitting the gym and working out at home to build up as much strength as I can,” she said. “Another weakness I have going into college is

that I will be wrestling a style that I have never wrestled before: high school wrestling is folkstyle, and women’s collegiate wrestling is freestyle. While they are similar in certain aspects, they are also different in many ways. “I will have many new things to learn, but I am hoping to go to some summer camps to get my foot in the door so I won’t have to go knowing almost nothing about freestyle wrestling.” Warren has proven herself to be an overcomer from the beginning. When she first mentioned wrestling to her parents, Tammy and the late Gary Warren, she got two stern no’s. Continued On Page 11 9

Wrestler, Ranked #10 In State Among Girls, To Compete At Collegiate Level Continued From Page 9 “It took awhile to convince them to let me wrestle, and they still weren’t totally on board for the first half of my (freshman) season, but they started to enjoy it,” she said. Warren showed up the first day of practice not knowing what to expect. “I was in a room full of boys I had never really spoken to before, and I was the only girl there. The first day of practice was brutal; we ran stair laps for the first half hour, then went out to the track and did lunges for a full 400 meters. My legs were dead, and I couldn’t walk the next day without having something to hold on to,” she grinned. “Many of the boys didn’t expect me to come back after that, but I did.” Of course, she had to weather her share of remarks. After all, it isn’t every day that a girl wrestles boys. “Nobody ever said anything directly to me, but I still catch wind of some of the comments,” Warren said. “I don’t let things like that bother me, because I know that I have all the same rights as the boys, and I earned my spot on the mat by constantly getting beaten on, yet still giving it my all and coming back. “Being a female wrestler is hard,” she added. “Even though you’re competing against boys who weigh the same as you, they are built differently and are so much stronger. I know what I am doing on the mat, but wrestling the boys is difficult because I know I should’ve won several of the matches I had (based upon technique and skill), but there was just nothing I could do against someone who overpowered me.” As a freshman, Warren took most of her lumps in practice, “but coach got me in several matches throughout the season so I could get some mat time, and I even got to compete in regionals,” she said. “My sophomore year was the same way. People didn’t think much of me and didn’t expect me to make it through the entire year, or they expected me to quit after the season--but I didn’t. “When I stepped out on the mat for the first time my junior year, I could tell people were shocked that I had stuck around this long. I knew I wanted to Continued On Page 14

FCHS’ Warren Recruited For Wrestling Continued From Page 11 make a name for myself. Even if I lost match-after-match, I was having the time of my life. I made it this far, so there was no way I was going to quit now.” Her senior year started out with a huge personal setback. The second week of school, her father died after a short battle with brain cancer. “My dad never missed a match, and I honestly didn’t want to wrestle this year knowing I wouldn’t have him there to support me,” Warren said. “I thought about just being the manager this season, so I’d still be part of the team. I laced up my wrestling shoes, though, and headed to the first practice of the season. Soon after getting there, I just knew I had to keep wrestling, and that my dad would not have wanted me to quit.” Mules Coach Jordan Griffith wasn’t at all surprised that she stuck around. He wrestled with girls at different times throughout his four-year career at FCHS, where he was a two-time state qualifier in the 189 lb. class. Griffith could tell that she loved the sport, and the fact that she worked as hard as the boys gained her acceptance from day one. “My first impression of Jessica was that she took the sport seriously and was in the practice room to better herself. She was more focused each time she stepped on the mat, and she worked hard on improving her imbalances,” Griffith said. “Her strengths, in my opinion, are that she has a great attitude, she enjoys pushing herself, and she really loves wrestling.” Warren’s love for and commitment to the sport are what caught Coach Spree’s attention. “Jessica has been put in a tough spot throughout her four years of high school, primarily only being allowed to compete against boys. Although this may not have always been fair, she never complained. Her attitude and effort never seemed to waiver, and this is what we love to see as coaches,” he said. “Next year, she will finally have the opportunity to compete on a level playing field. Her experience of only competing against males will serve as a huge asset.” Warren cited the acceptance she received from her parents, coaches, teachers, fans, and teammates as making all the difference, especially after her dad—who

she says was her biggest influence—passed away. “He worked practically his entire life, and growing up seeing my dad working hard really had an impact on me. He is definitely where I get my work ethic from. My dad pumped oil wells and almost never took a day off. He would work, rain or shine, even if he was sick. Things like that really reflect on a child, and it showed me the importance of never slacking off and always working through hard times,” she said. “The boys (on the team) have been a big part of me having a great senior season. They all knew what I had been through with losing my father; they always encouraged me and pushed me at practice, and always had my back in whatever situation I needed them.” Warren translated what she learned growing up to the mat, where she isn’t ashamed of having a losing record against the guys. “Wrestling was never about winning for me, it was always about having fun, improving, and learning,” she reasoned. “It has taught me many things that are important and will help in my adult life, such as dedication, work ethic, responsibility, hard work, good sportsmanship, and much more.” Even though she didn’t get the chance to compete at the state wrestling match, nor did she get to do her senContinued On Page 16
