The Little Green Trailer is hard to miss. It’s bright, it’s green and it’s the only permanent food trailer in Creston. Open since the beginning of May, Kylie Clayton, Waylon Clayton and Luke Smith’s Little Green Trailer is Creston’s newest BBQ vendor. Open 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday in the parking lot west of First Christian Church on West Townline Street, the Little Green Trailer offers classic BBQ staples and some of its own takes

alongside homemade lemonade and the shaved-ice frozen treat Tropical Sno. “I’ve been doing vending for several years with my cake business,” said Kylie, “and also my husband liked to cook, and so a couple of those shows that I’d been at wanted food, and so we started smoking meat at those shows for those vendor-type shows. “And I kind of got tired of working under a tent,” Kylie continued, “and he (Waylon) wanted to grow it more, and my brother is really good at cooking and likes to mess with fun recipes so its just kind of evolved from there.” And the name? “Well, we went through a ton of names,” said Waylon. “And then we just said, ‘It’s a little green trailer. Sounds good to us!’” said Kylie. “It just seemed family-friendly. And if we ever get a bigger one, it’ll be a Big Green Trailer, I guess.” The trailer smokes its

meat daily, and operates out of the parking lot west of the First Christian Church on West Townline Street. “The BBQ came around because when I was a kid, that’s what my dad did,” said Waylon. “And he taught me a few things with it and I started expanding from what he had taught me and got into it that way.

“WHAT we’re doing right now is a spin-off of BBQ. We’re doing some fun things with BBQ that you can’t find anywhere else.”

We have our traditional stuff still, but also stuff like our BBQ tacos, our BBQ sundae — what’s neat about doing what we’re doing is we like to have the freedom.” The Little Green Trailer’s menu, with regular updates available on the food truck’s Facebook page Little GREEN Trailer, features a variety of BBQ classics and fresh takes featuring traditional ingredients. Brisket and pulled pork are served daily, alongside featured menu items like BBQ tacos, sundaes, sandwiches and Walkers, a kind of walking nacho. On most Saturdays, the trailer offers special event menu items like chicken hind-quarters, turkey legs and burgers. “But one of the biggest niches that we have,” said Waylon, “is we try to keep our prices so that everybody can enjoy.

McCain’s return sets stage for big Senate health bill vote WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump urged Republicans to “step up to the plate” for Tuesday’s crucial Senate vote on their bill eviscerating much of the Obama health care law. The stage was set for high drama, with Sen. John McCain returning to the Capitol to cast his first vote since being diagnosed with brain cancer. No stranger to heroic episodes, the Navy pilot who persevered through five years of captivity during the Vietnam War announced through his office that he would be back in Washington for the critical roll call

on beginning debate on the legislation. The 80-year-old has been at home in Arizona since he revealed last week that he’s undergoing treat- McCain ment for brain cancer, but a statement said he “looks forward” to returning for work on health care and other legislation.

Iowa firm tied to truck deaths has history of legal problems SCHALLER (AP) — The small, family-owned Iowa trucking company linked to the deadly case of immigrant smuggling in Texas has a history of safety and tax violations and financial problems, public records show. Pyle Transportation Inc. failed to pay federal employment and trucking taxes for years, faced lawsuits from Iowa labor regulators over unpaid wages owed to drivers and has been ordered to pay major penalties for violations of federal safety rules, records show. The IRS and others who say the company owes them money have often found no assets available to garnish. The company and its driver insist they know nothing about

how dozens of immigrants became packed inside the trailer of its 18-wheeler, which was found parked in the searing heat outside a San Antonio Walmart over the weekend. Ten of those passengers died and more than 15 others were hospitalized with extreme dehydration, with one passenger telling investigators people were taking turns breathing from a hole inside the trailer. Pyle Transportation owner Brian Pyle denied knowledge of any human smuggling and expressed shock and bewilderment over how so many people could have been crammed into a trailer that had his name on it.

“I’m absolutely sorry it happened. I really am. It’s shocking,” Pyle said outside the company’s ramshackle office near the tiny downtown of Schaller, Iowa, a village of 750 in the rural northwestern part of the state. He said he had reached a deal to sell the trailer to a person in Mexico and hired one of the company’s former drivers, James Matthew Bradley Jr. of Clearwater, Florida, as an independent contractor to drive the trailer to a drop-off point in the border city of Brownsville, Texas. Pyle showed a reporter a copy of what he said was a bill of sale, dated May 10, which contained no sales price. Pyle declined to identify the purchaser or say where in Brownsville the trailer was to be delivered. The county treasurer’s office declined to say whether paperwork transferring the truck’s title had been filed. Bradley was charged Monday with transporting immigrants who were in the United States illegally, resulting in the deaths. Bradley told investigators that he was transporting the trailer for his boss from Iowa to Brownsville, and made some stops along the way. He said he was unaware people were inside until he parked and got out to urinate. The driver claimed he was not given a delivery time or address. He told authorities that he

graduated from Lorimor High School in 1932. On Jan. 6, 1932, Allie married William A. “Bill” Winkler in Winterset at the Methodist parsonage. They settled in the Lorimor area where she worked as an active mother, farm-wife and homemaker. Allie had also worked with Watts-Lindsay Funeral Home in Lorimor. Bill died in 1992. On Aug. 3, 1992, Allie married George Axel Faust in Missouri. They lived in the Creston area. George died in June 2014. Allie then moved to Layfayette, Indiana, to live near her son, Jack. Allie is survived by her son Jack A. Winkler of Lafayette, Indiana; step-children, Jim (Sandy) Faust of Rising Sun, Indiana, and Sandra Rooker of Creston; six grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; three step-grandchildren; 12 step-great-grandchildren and one step-great-greatgrandchild. Allie was preceded in death by her parents; first husband, Bill Winkler; second husband, George Faust; son Bill Winkler; two brothers; step-son-in-law John Rooker in 2016 and step-grandson and granddaughter-in-law, Nathan and Kim Gross in 2003. had stopped in Laredo, Texas — which would have been out of his way if he were traveling directly to Brownsville — to get the truck washed and detailed before heading back 150 miles (240 kilometers) north to San Antonio. From there, he would have had to drive 275 miles (440 kilometers) south again to get to Brownsville. Pyle, 34, said there was no reason for the driver to stop in Laredo and San Antonio. He refused to discuss his company’s prior legal problems, saying the focus should be on issues surrounding the deaths. “It should be about what happened in Texas and not my company,” he said. Federal records show the company claims 15 drivers and 18 trucks that haul fresh produce, meat, food, paper products and other freight. The company reported logging 830,000 miles in 2013, the latest year for which figures were available. The company and its drivers have repeatedly been cited for safety, vehicle maintenance and record-keeping violations, according to Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration data. Many of the violations have been tied to truckers who didn’t get enough rest between shifts — or who kept false reports that suggested they did. Just last month, the company was penalized more than $50,000 over false reports of drivers’ work and rest activities. In 2015, it faced a $90,000 penalty for the same infraction.

and they can spend less than $30 for some nice brisket and then have a treat at the end. And that’s pretty hard to do in town here. I don’t even think you can do that at McDonald’s anymore. I think that’s one of the things people are liking — that we can keep our prices lower.” The Little Green Trailer requires about four employees for its operation, explained Waylon, but those four are assisted by some young volunteers. Son Willie Clayton, 12, daughter Kartar Clayton, 10, and other family friends give time to the trailer.

“Yeah, we’ve got some kids learning some ropes,” said Waylon. “One of my kids, Willie, he volunteers his time to come — well, I kind of force him to — but he comes down and he’s learning a trade. And we have a couple more kids his age who are friends that are learning the same thing. Like learning how to count back change, which is pretty much unheard of anymore. And customer service, and being polite — and I think the kids are doing great.” “They were real nervous about talking to people at first,” said Kylie, “but they’ll be ready.” Willie’s thoughts on his learning progression? “Next month I’ll be washing lettuce!” he happily ex-

claimed. Kylie, Waylon and Smith are especially thankful for the community’s support. “We’ve had to jump through hoops — you know — to get it going in Creston, which you know about,” said Waylon. “A bunch of other trailers tried to come in, and it didn’t work out too well for them. But Creston really wants this trailer in town — we’ve got a lot of support. And that’s one of the things we’re so thankful for.” “When we started,” Kylie continued, “we thought, ‘How hard are we going to have to work to get 50 people to come down?’ And that’s all we shot for. And we probably serve 150 people a day now.

“So we laugh,” said Kylie, “and it was rough on us because we didn’t expect it. That first day, we were out of food in an hour and a half. And it took a good week or two to even keep food past 3 p.m. So it was a big challenge for us to prepare for going over our goal. We were just being modest, you know, and I’ve learned it’s hit and miss at some places. But we’ve had a great outpouring of support here.” Aside from the trailer’s regular operation out of the lot west of First Christian, the Little Green Trailer makes regular appearances at area events, fairs and festivals. The trailer is also planning a grand opening celebration and event sometime soon.

VOTE: CONT. FROM | 1A

beginning debate for Tuesday, though it remained unclear exactly which version of the legislation would be in play. The Republican leadership expects McCain to support taking up the measure, and his mere presence could make it harder for wavering Republicans to cast a vote against even considering the bill. Democrats uniformly oppose the effort to tear down President Barack Obama’s signature legislative achievement. Republicans control the chamber 52-48, meaning they can afford to lose just two Republicans with McCain around and only one in his absence. Vice President Mike Pence would cast a tie-breaking vote. Trump kept up the pressure on GOP lawmakers, tweeting that “After 7 years of talking, we will soon see

whether or not Republicans are willing to step up to the plate!” He added: “ObamaCare is torturing the American People. The Democrats have fooled the people long enough. Repeal or Repeal & Replace! I have pen in hand.” McConnell’s bill would abolish much of Obama’s law, eliminating its tax penalties on people not buying policies, cutting Medicaid, eliminating its tax boosts on medical companies and providing less generous health care subsidies for consumers. But at least a dozen GOP senators have openly said they oppose or criticized the measure, which McConnell has revised as he’s hunted Republican support. While it had long seemed headed toward defeat, Republicans Monday began showing glimmers of optimism. Senators and aides said talks were continuing that might win over enough Republicans to commence debate.

The discussions involved holding an early vote on a plan scuttling much of Obama’s law and giving Congress two years to enact a replacement, a plan embraced by conservative Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., that seemed likely to lose. Moderates were seeking additional money for states that would be hurt by cuts in Medicaid, the health insurance program for the poor, the disabled and nursing home patients. And conservatives wanted a vote on a proposal by Ted Cruz, R-Texas, letting insurers offer bare-bones policies with low premiums, which would be illegal under Obama’s law. With leaders still struggling to line up enough votes to approve a wide-ranging

overhaul of Obama’s law, there was talk of trying to pass a narrow bill — details still unclear — so House-Senate bargainers could craft a compromise. That, too, was encountering problems. “This idea that we’re going to vote on something just to get in conference and then figure it out later is nuts,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., told reporters. Should Tuesday’s vote fail, it would be an unalloyed embarrassment for a party that finally gained control of the White House, Senate and House in January but still fell flat on its promise to uproot Obamacare. Republicans could try returning to the bill later this year if they somehow round up more support.

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, July 25, 2017

Is all this reading impressing her? Editor’s note: This is the sixth guest column by Kyle Wilson. His columns publish in the Creston News Advertiser on the fourth Tuesday of every month. I’ve never been much for reading. In high school, I fell somewhere in the “jock” category — caring far more about my batting average than my grade point average. I remember the girls, and even some of the boys, scowling at me in gym class. I was the guy that took kickball and dodgeball way too seriously. Also in high school, I only read books assigned to me by my English instructors. Even then I’d skim most of the chapters, retaining just enough of the content to get 70 to 75 percent on the multiple choice tests. I never read for leisure. This didn’t change much in college or even in my 20s. It’s a bit embarrassing, but the first book I completed — cover to cover — that wasn’t assigned by an instructor came at the age of 26. I was working in newspaper at that time and ran across columnist Mitch Albom. I became a regular reader of his work. He had the gift of bringing words to life. At that time, I’d just started dating my wife Stormy. She was renting a condo in Waukee while finishing up her degree at Des Moines University. On her bookshelf, I noticed Albom’s memoir “Tuesdays with Morrie.” She lent me the book and I finished the bestseller in about two weeks. Shortly after that, I bought the book “Wooden” by John Wooden and Steve Jamison. Was all this reading impressing Stormy? Seriously, that thought crossed my mind, which was a little shocking for me. That type of introspec-

In Transit Kyle Wilson guest columnist

tion had never, ever entered my tiny “jock” brain before. Still, the book was written by a basketball coach. It couldn’t be impressing her too much. Could it? My true reason for selecting the book, though, was that I wanted to know how Wooden was able to win 10 national basketball championships at UCLA in 12 years. But, as I discovered, this book really wasn’t about basketball. It was about family values, overcoming adversity, staying disciplined, improving leadership. The book included his famous “Pyramid of Success,” which hangs in my office at First National Bank today. I’ve read this book 3 times now and I still use it as a reference probably every other month. Here are two of my favorite maxims from Wooden: 1. “Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others.” 2. “The best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.” Imagine the world today if we could abide by these two maxims. “Wooden” is the book that gave me thirst for more. I’ve read right at 20 books since “Wooden.” They include books on time management, leadership, personal finance, investing, public speaking and parenting. They include authors like Covey, Carnegie, Maxwell and Meeker. I know, for some of you, me reading an average of 5 books per year doesn’t impress you much. Some of you probably read 20

books a year, maybe more. But, if my little library continues to grow at this pace I’ll have read about 200 books by retirement. Right now, I’m reading a book called “Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking” by Malcom Gladwell. It’s a book backed with cutting-edge neuroscience research on how the brain really works and why some people can consistently make sound decisions in a blink of an eye. I have about eight other books in the queue right now. Listen, I’m not saying I’ve had some serious transformation and all I do is pleasure read every spare minute. Believe me, I’m still the guy that takes dodgeball way too seriously. But, I do now realize the importance of challenging and expanding my mind, especially as I get older. In the book “Rhinoceros Success,” author Scott Alexander writes: “We become the product of three things: the people we associate with, the books we read and the media we listen to.” I think there’s a lot of truth in that statement. ••• Contact the writer: Twitter: @k_wilson85 Email: kylew3516@gmail.com

Here are some of the titles I’ve read since “Wooden.” I’m reading about 5 books per year right now. I’m guessing that average will start rising once my kids get older, begin hanging out with friends and don’t think I’m cool anymore.

It’s no secret the print journalism business doesn’t have the same following or financial backing that it used to. To work at a daily paper in a town the size of Creston is something I don’t take for granted given there are cities such as Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay whose print media is now subject to only being seen online. I understand that at the end of the day, it is a business, but I would be remiss if I didn’t ask the readers to do what they can to support local and national print journalism. Recently, Fox Sports and Vice Sports have both decided to shear their respective print departments and switch to video entirely. Fox announced those changes last month while Vice decided to change course just last week. ESPN also laid off a good chunk of its staff, print and video, for more on-air personalities and much less reporting. Having worked in front of and behind the camera in college, I understand the importance of video and the way that medium reaches vast audiences. Especially today, video can be shared without running up against a pay-wall, which prevents quite a few websites from ever gaining the eyes it may need someday. Plus, there is something to be said for reading information instead of having it spoken to you. I, for one, still keep and collect the front pages of major events such as the Giants World Series wins and Warriors NBA titles (they make great decoration and serve as a wonderful memory).

Carter’s 2 Cents Carter Eckl staff writer

All that being said, the video realm of journalism and media doesn’t exist without print. Techniques may be different and on-screen personalities may not have to adhere to AP style, but one still must know how to write. Print media is invaluable. There are so many stories, just through the last decade, that have been dug out by newspaper reporters, local and national, that have have helped change the community around them for the better. I say this as a reporter for a local paper, so I will admit to my bias and acknowledge the fact that it may be blatantly obvious, but there is still plenty that can be done to reverse the trend facing print. How many other industries are out there where competing employees and mediums alike are praising each others’ work? They do that because they care about the idustry as a whole. Support any print media outlet you can and keep the talented reporters everywhere in the industry. I, myself, am trying to continue to support new outlets when I can afford to do so. I am already a subscriber to the Washington Post, but as of last night, I am a new subscriber of The Athletic, a new start-up sports print medium. I first saw the news of the web-

site expanding on twitter. I still follow a ton of reporters from the Bay Area on Twitter and a few of my favorites recently announced they were transitioning to this new platform. The goal of The Athletic is to bring “premium sports journalism for diehard local fans” in some of the bigger cities in North America. The one that hooked me was the Bay Area edition of The Athletic that will be launching Aug. 1. The publication already boasts websites for Chicago, Detroit, Toronto and Cleveland. Though The Athletic is only an online publication, it is still going to be a competing media outlet on the main stage. Print journalism has been around for a long time. Times may be changing, but that doesn’t mean everything else has to. Now that I’ve said all that, I will leave you with this. If you’ve made it this far and don’t already support your local paper, you will undoubtedly reap the benefits of being more in touch with your surrounding community than you ever were before. ••• Contact the writer: Twitter - @CarterEckl Email - ceckl@crestonnews. com

A vacant White House job: first pet WASHINGTON (AP) — Politically ambitious pups and kittens: Put your resumes aside. The job of first pet — an enviable White House gig with luxurious live-in privileges, after-hours access to the president and guaranteed positive press coverage — is not currently available. That’s because President Donald Trump is not looking for a fluffy sidekick at the moment. Asked about plans for a four-legged addition to the White House, Stephanie Grisham, a spokeswoman for Melania Trump, said in a statement: “The first family is still getting settled so there are no plans at this time.” If Trump stays pet-free, he will be breaking with a long held tradition of presidential pet ownership. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s had his beloved terrier Fala. President George H.W. Bush’s English springer spaniel Millie was featured on “The Simpsons.” When President Barack Obama’s family acquired their Portuguese water dog Bo, it was big news. “In the modern-day pres-

idency, almost all of them have had a pet,” said Jennifer Pickens, a White House social expert who wrote “Pets at the White House.” Still, she noted, “all didn’t necessarily have them at the beginning of the administration.” Power and pets have long gone hand in hand. “For some reason people in power, they end up suffocating different opinions and dominating their staff, but they in some ways long for someone who will speak up to them, and a pet will,” said Doug Wead, a former George H.W. Bush administration staffer who wrote books on presidential children and the 2016 campaign. While there have been notable pets in the White House for generations, Millie was the first modern White House dog, said Pickens. She added that Barbara Bush was the first one to “use the pet as a tool to reach out.” During President George W. Bush’s administration, when the White House was closed for tours after 9/11, the administration tried to connect with the public through videos. Among them was the

“Barney Cam” series of short videos featuring the Scottish terrier having adventures in the West Wing, with cameos from the first family and White House staff. When he declared victory in the 2008 presidential race, Barack Obama told his daughters: “You have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the White House.” Several months later, Bo joined the family, a gift from the late Sen. Ted Kennedy. Bo quickly became a household name, appearing on morning television shows and in videos promoting the White House Easter egg roll. Some notable pets belonged to first kids, including Amy Carter’s Siamese cat Misty Malarky Ying Yang and Caroline Kennedy’s pony Macaroni. The Kennedy family had a veritable menagerie of pets, complete with dogs, cats, birds, hamsters and a rabbit named Zsa Zsa. Going back in White House history, some presidential pet stories get more outlandish. According to the Presidential Pet Museum website, President Mar-

tin Van Buren was given a pair of tiger cubs that he donated to a zoo and President John Quincy Adams was presented an alligator. While Trump has not embraced presidential pet ownership, Vice President Mike Pence has picked up the slack. The Pences have a bunny, Marlon Bundo, and a cat named Pickles. Another cat named Oreo recently died. And they just added two more pets to the household — puppy Harley and cat Hazel. They also installed a beehive. Pickens said she doesn’t know that it matters if Trump gets a dog, but she said they are “effective tools to connect with the American people and I think pets help humanize the presidency.” Of course, while pet ownership can provide personal and political perks, it can also go wrong. Former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney was dogged by criticism for admitting that during a 1983 family vacation, he strapped his Irish setter — in a pet carrier — to the roof of his car for a 12-hour drive from Boston to Canada.

Victory for ‘Dunkirk’ and ‘Girls Trip’ at the box office LOS ANGELES (AP) — It’s victory for “Dunkirk” and “Girls Trip” at the box office this weekend. Both original and well-reviewed films smashed expectations and enticed diverse audiences to the theaters, even though cumulatively summer remains down from last year. Christopher Nolan’s World War II epic brought in an estimated $50.5 million to easily top the charts, according to Warner Bros., while the raucous comedy “Girls Trip” broke the R-rated comedy slump of 2017 with $30.4 million to take second place. “Dunkirk” was far from an inevitable summer success. But stellar reviews, awards buzz and hype around the film’s largescale production helped drive people to the theater and large-format screens. “It became a must-see event,” said Paul Dergarabedian, a senior media analyst for comScore. Drawing quite a different audience was the buddy comedy “Girls Trip,” starring Regina Hall, Tiffany Haddish, Jada Pinkett Smith and Queen Latifah as a group of girlfriends who head to New Orleans for a weekend of fun. The Universal film drew in an audience that was 79 percent female and 50 percent under the age of 30. Fifty-nine percent of attendees were estimated to be African-American. Notably, audiences gave the film a stellar A+ CinemaScore, suggesting the film will have long-term playability. “ ‘Girls Trip’ was a perfectly counter-programmed box

office surprise,” Dergarabedian said. “It broke the R-rated comedy curse that has afflicted this summer with ‘Baywatch,’ ‘Snatched,’ ‘Rough Night’ and ‘The House.’ “ For Universal, the formula is more simple: “Girls Trip,” unlike the aforementioned comedies, is resonating with audiences. “When the taste for entertainment and comedy has been somewhat underserved, it is not because people aren’t interested in laughing, it’s that they’re waiting for something funny to come along,” said Nick Carpou, Universal’s president of domestic distribution. “One of the great things about this comedy is that it’s really funny.” Not so successful was Luc Besson’s nearly $180 million sci-fi epic “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets,” which earned $17 million from North American theaters over the weekend for a fifth-place start. It came in behind “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” in third in its third weekend with $22 million and “War for the Planet of the Apes” in fourth place in its second weekend with $20.4 million. Besson’s film, starring Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne and based on the French comic “Valerian and Laureline,” was produced by EuropaCorp. STX Entertainment distributed it in North America. The film’s financial exposure was limited, however. EuropaCorp says 90 percent of the budget was already covered by foreign pre-sales, equity financing

and tax subsidies. Dergarabedian said it’s more about the international returns for “Valerian,” but it’s hard not to see Besson’s return to sci-fi as a disappointment. Not adjusted for inflation, “Valerian” earned basically the same as “The Fifth Element,” which came out 20 years ago. For comparison, his film “Lucy,” starring Scarlett Johansson, opened to $43.8 million in 2014. Overall, the year remains around flat from last year, and the summer season looks unlikely to make up for its deficit through the end of July and August. “Despite the weekend being down close to 10 percent, the currency that was most valuable is the currency of goodwill,” Dergarabedian said. “Nobody can say that Hollywood threw the same old stuff at the wall this weekend.” Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to comScore.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Heloise: I’m wondering how your readers feel about SHOPPING MALLS? When I was a kid, I loved spending time at the mall with my friends; some malls had carousels, ice-skating rinks and movie theaters, and they all had wonderful food courts with delicious choices of eats. But now so many malls are going out of business. In San Antonio, we still have malls that are doing well, but off-price stores and shopping online are gaining in popularity. Will your readers always go to the mall? Do you like the energy there? The service? The people? It was convenient to have all the big stores under one roof, and years ago, I used to walk in the mall for exercise. That was fun. The salespeople in the kiosks outside of the stores can be pretty pushy, but I’ve learned to just say, “No, thank you.” Is the shopping mall becoming a thing of the past? Hopefully not! – Jana B., Helotes, Texas Readers, what do you say about the shopping mall? I’ve done many book signings in many malls over the years – a great place to come

together! – Heloise WAX ON; WAX OFF Dear Heloise: My daughter gave me two beautiful scented candle jars (cinnamon and vanilla). Most of the wick and wax is almost used. The jars are beautiful, and I wish to keep them. How can I safely remove the remaining wax? – Mom in Florida What a lovely daughter! And kudos for wanting to repurpose the jars. Tuck the jars in the freezer for about an hour. Carefully place a table knife at the edge of the wax and wiggle it gently. The wax should pop off! – Heloise ‘S’ OR ‘C’ Dear Heloise: I’m sure there are a lot of talented folks who design containers, so it has always amazed me that they fail to recognize that people who wear glasses usually don’t wear them in the shower. Shampoo and conditioner bottles are ordinarily the same size. How about a giant “S” and “C” printed on the bottles? – Marian L., Omaha, Neb. THE LEARNED WORD Dear Heloise: While my kids (ages 8 and 10) are out of school for the summer, I

SUDOKU

am having them read for an hour per day. I set a goal for them to find one word they are unfamiliar with. I challenge them to learn the meaning of the word, and then the context the word was used in. Then the next day, we talk about yesterday’s word, and set upon the task of finding a new word to learn! We are having fun reading, learning and sharing! – Mary H. in Pittsburgh LETTER OF LAUGHTER Dear Heloise: Why is it that in school, teachers tell you, “Keep your eyes on your own paper” and “No talking,” and then when you get out in the real world, people tell you, “Network!” “Meet and greet!” and “If you want to be like this person, do what he does!”? A paradox indeed! – Glenn C. in New York Send a money-saving or timesaving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 1-210-HELOISE or email it to Heloise(at)Heloise.com. I can’t answer your letter personally but will use the best hints received in my column. (c)2017 by King Features Syndicate Inc.

IOWA DIGEST

Dean of the castle

Iowa’s Ferentz has longest FBS tenure CHICAGO (AP) — Kirk Ferentz enters his 19th season as Iowa as the longest tenured Bowl Subdivision coach in the country. He isn’t dwelling much on his longevity. “I haven’t spent a lot of time thinking about it,” Ferentz said Monday at Big Ten media days. “I feel very, very fortunate. This will be my, I guess, 28th year at Iowa and feel fortunate that, in 1981, I somehow, some way, ended up there as an assistant.” Bob Stoops was the longest-tenured active coach in major college football, taking the job at Oklahoma a day before Ferentz started at Iowa. But Stoops retired this summer after 18 seasons, leaving the stage to Ferentz. The Hawkeyes are coming off an 8-5 season and Ferentz has promoted his son, Brian, to r u n t h e o f fense. Form e r c o - Ferentz ordinator Ken O’Keefe is back as the quarterbacks coach in hopes of sparking what has been a lackluster offense. Ferentz, who is 13592 at Iowa, recalled Stoops and called him a good friend. Stoops was a player at Iowa when Ferentz a r rived i n 1981 a n d t h e y Stoops later worked together. “So in my mind, we lost one of the good coaches in this game, one of the best coaches that’s ever coached,” Ferentz said. “But I’m happy for him. He’s totally at peace.” Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany praised Ferentz. “I’ve gotten to know him in a good way over a couple of decades and have tremendous respect for him as a leader of young people, as a football coach and as a consistent coach leader,” he said. “I count him as a friend and I count his contribution as a college football coach among the very best in the country.”

Mike Leake silences Rockies, bats back him up in Cardinalsâ€™ 8-2 win ST. LOUIS (AP) â€” Coming off his worst three-game stretch of the season and facing the red-hot Rockies, Cardinals pitcher Mike Leake said Sunday that skipping his turn in the rotation wasnâ€™t an option. Leake backed up his words with an emphatic outing, leading the Cardinals to an 8-2 win Monday. Leake entered the game having given up 17 runs â€” nine of them earned â€” in his last three starts combined. He hadnâ€™t seen the sixth inning once in those three starts, and in his last start he pitched just two frames. The Rockies, meanwhile, entered Monday having scored 74 runs in their

last seven games. Naturally, Leake pitched seven scoreless innings. The outing was his second scoreless appearance of the season and his first since April 12. Leake allowed just four hits, all of them singles, and didnâ€™t issue a walk. He Leake struck out six Rockies batters, including All-Star third baseman Nolan Arenado, twice. Entering Mondayâ€™s game, Arenado and fellow Rockies All-Star Charlie Blackmon were each hitting over .400

since the All-Star break. Between them, they had hit nine home runs, driven in 24 RBIs and scored 26 runs. Neither got on base against Leake on Monday. Leake enjoyed ample run support, thanks in large part to four Cardinals homers in the game. The Cardinals got on the board, however, not with a homer but a Paul DeJong single in the bottom of the first. Dexter Fowler, who walked to lead off the game, advanced to second when Tommy Pham also walked, and took third on a passed ball, scored on the hit, which was initially ruled a ground out but was overturned after a Cardinals challenge.

The challenge became significant the following at bat, when Jedd Gyorko grounded into a double play but Pham scored because the inning was not over. Randal Grichuk extended the Cardinalsâ€™ lead in the bottom of the fourth as he blasted his fourth home run in as many games to score two runs. Grichuk has now homered in each of his four games since being activated from the disabled list on Friday. Leake was removed in the bottom of the seventh inning in favor of Jose Martinez, who made his first appearance since being hit in the side of the head by

a foul ball on Friday. Martinez knocked a 402-foot home run over the wall in left field. The homer was his sixth of the season and the sixth of the season by a Cardinals pinch-hitter. Two batters later, Pham also hit a solo homer to extend the Cardinalsâ€™ lead to 6-0. The Rockies mounted a challenge in the top of the eighth inning. With lefty reliever Zach Duke on the mound for the second time this season after he missed the first half of the season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, pinch hitter Pat Valaika hit a two-run homer to cut into the Cardinalsâ€™ lead.

Blackmon and D.J. LeMahieu followed with back-to-back singles, bringing Arenado to the plate with a chance to cut the Cardinalsâ€™ lead to one run. Reliever John Brebbia struck him out. Kevin Siegrist then took over and retired the next two batters to end the threat. The Cardinals added an exclamation point to the win in the bottom of the eighth. Yadier Molina led off the inning with a double, stole third, and scored on a single hit by Kolten Wong. The Cardinals are now three and a half games behind the Cubs and four games behind the Brewers in the NL Central standings.

Walnut, spoke on behalf of Agenda Item #8, regarding the review of a permit application for shooting off fireworks. He offered advice regarding the amount of insurance that is currently required via the Creston City Ordinance, stating that professional shooters, such as himself, cannot afford the cost of the insurance for private fireworks shows, recommending the amount be lowered.

Division. All voted aye. Koets was absent. Motion carried. Council discussed the proposed permit application for fireworks provided by Fire Chief Jackson. He emulated another city's permit application using the required insurance amounts from the City of Creston's current ordinance on fireworks. He will not sign any application that is submitted without proper proof of the required insurance coverage. He would eventually like the Council to be the ones to approve these applications. Brandon Vonk suggests that small shows that have Class C fireworks fall back on the homeowner that is hosting the show, not the one that's putting on the show.

They plan to do East Howard Street in phases and hope to be able to collaborate with Farmers Cooperative when they are doing their building improvements to cut down on access difficulties. South Chestnut Street will experience some access difficulties. West Howard Street will be a little different, as it is mostly residential. This will be done in two or three phases as well, and there will be realignments at the intersections of Howard/Jarvis and Howard/Division. The

2017 Adams County Speedway

G N I C RA Update

Kasey Kahne seizes first NASCAR Cup victory in 3 years at Brickyard 400 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – Kasey Kahne needed a break Sunday – and got it. The 37-year-old driver barely reached the overtime line before the last caution flag came out in a crashmarred B r i c k - Kahne yard 400, allowing Kahne to complete a sixhour marathon and snap a long winless streak. He crossed the yard of bricks under caution with daylight fading and his muscles cramping, just ahead of Brad Keselowski and Ryan Newman. “I had a great car out front. I had a pretty good car all day long. I was really happy,’’ Kahne said. “Unbelievable to win in Indianapolis. Unbelievable to win a Cup race – it’s been a while. I know it’s great for my team.’’ But even before kissing the bricks and pos-

ing for photos, Kahne’s long-awaited victory celebration was put on hold as he dropped to the ground and his crew members tried to rub out the cramps he fought through late in the race. Afterward, Kahne went to the speedway’s infield medical center where he received intravenous fluids. Other drivers said temperatures inside the cockpits topped 130 degrees. The wacky race had a little of everything – 14 cautions and 55 caution laps, both race records, three red flags and a 1-hour, 47-minute rain delay. Nineteen cars did not finish. It lasted so long, drivers were racing against the impending darkness as much as they were themselves. For Kahne, his 18th career win might have been the sweetest of all. He had only three top-10 finishes in the first 19 races. His future with Hendrick Motorsports was in question, and after going

almost three full years and more than 100 races without a win, he was finally back in victory lane. “It puts him in the chase,’’ team owner Rick Hendrick said after his 10th Brickyard victory. “It puts him in the playoff. We’re excited about that.’’ Kahne’s last win came in Atlanta in August 2014. By any measure, it was a wacky day. The two fastest cars on Indy’s 2.5-mile oval – Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. – went out in a crash with 49 laps to go. Truex’s car slid up the track going through the first turn and the Toyota teammates both wound in the wall. Busch led the first 71 laps, 87 of the first 110 and swept the first two stages ahead of Truex. “That’s the way it goes,’’ B u s c h said. “Just chalk it up to another one we found a Busch

way to lose.’’ The finish was even wilder. Over the last 16 laps, there were five crashes and two red flags. The craziness began when Kurt Busch, Erik Jones and Clint Bowyer got together coming out of the fourth turn. On the ensuing restart, Kyle Larson hit the wall on the front straightaway to bring out another caution. Things again went awry when Jimmie Johnson, Keselowski and Kahne w e n t three-wide through the third turn on what was supposed Johnson to be the secondto-last lap. But Johnson’s smoking car started spinning and hit the wall to force overtime. “I wouldn’t call it an absurdity, I just think it was a crazy race,’’ Keselowski said. “There was some crazy

strategy.’’ Trevor Bayne got into the mix with two laps in the first overtime when his car was bumped from behind, sending it sideways through the field. Six cars got collected in the crash, bringing out yet another red flag and adding more laps to the race. Kahne finally ended it by reaching the line just ahead of Keselowski as another multi-car crash occurred behind him. “As much as I didn’t need him winning I’m happy for (at)kaseykahne,’’ Clint Bowyer wrote on Twitter. “People have written him off lately. HUGE win under extreme pressure.”

Earnhardt and Danica results Dale Earnhardt Jr. also had a tough day in his final Brickyard start. The 42-year-old driver damaged his radiator when he hit the back of Bayne’s car on Lap 77 and wound up pulling off the track and stopping underneath the Gasoline Alley sign. When he climbed out, Earnhardt received a loud roar. “There was just a bunch of cars slowing down, starting a chain reaction. We got into the back of (Bayne),’’ he said. “It just knocked the radiator out of us. We had a great car. We had a top-10 car. I thought we could finish there.’’ Former IndyCar favorite Danica Patrick received a penalty for a pit violation early in the race and finished 11th.

Up next Sunday, the series moves to Pocono, Pennsylvania, where Chris Buescher is the defending champion.

Laura Ingalls Wilder butter statue coming to Iowa State Fair DES MOINES (AP) — The Iowa State Fair will this year celebrate “Little House on the Prairie” with a butter sculpture of author Laura Ingalls Wilder. The Des Moines Register reports that the dairy likeness of Wilder will be displayed next to the butter cow, which is an annual

feature at the fair. Wilder wrote the “Little House” series about 19th Century homesteaders in the Midwest, and the books formed the basis for the long-running television show. She spent part of her childhood in Burr Oak, Iowa. A butter replica of the

Solheim Cup golf trophy will also be displayed at the Aug. 10-20 event. Previous butter sculptures include Elvis Presley and a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The Iowa State Fair attracts more than a million visitors every year.
