Employer-educator summit to be held Oct. 18 in Creston CRESTON — IowaWORKS Southern Hills and Southwestern Community College are hosting “The Road to Success is Always Under Construction Conference” in Creston Oct. 18.

The summit is designed to increase collaboration between business leaders, school faculty and administrators, and community leaders to strategize workforce needs in light of the nation-wide middle-skills gap.

Speakers and panelists, as well as round-table discussions, will provide rich discussion on an array of workforce and education collaboration topics. Sessions will include: navigating a multi-generational workforce; soft skills in the workplace; creative business-school collaboration projects; changing needs, and career pathways.

Scott Siepker, Iowa actor and creator of the “Iowa Nice” videos will provide the keynote address.

Middle-skill jobs remain an important part of Iowa’s expanding economy. This trend is expected to continue as more of the baby boomer generation retires and employers expect more from their employees in terms of higher education and skills.

“Middle-skill” jobs account for over half of the Iowa economy. They generally require some education and training beyond high school, but less than a bachelor’s degree.

While the demand for middle-skill workers will continue to be strong in the

next decade, supply may not be able to meet the demand.

All too often, students do not pursue education in the fields that are most in demand.

One of the best ways to ensure that future workers will meet the new and evolving skill requirements for jobs is for employers to partner with postsecondary educational institutions.

Connecting employers with educators will help target essential skills and best practices for educating and training students.

Region 14 Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act Director Barb DeVore encouraged community participation in the conference, stating, “I hope you share my vision that Southwest Iowa is a good place to grow a business, work, get an education, and raise a family. Meaningful partnerships between businesses looking for talent and schools preparing students for the world of work are vital to the success of our communities. This conference is an avenue for community members to invest in this vision. Please make plans to join us!”

The conference will be Oct. 18 from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. at Southwestern Community College. The $15 registration fee includes breakfast and lunch. Online registrations can be made at http://www. swcciowa.edu/road2success For more information, contact Michelle Wilson at the IowaWORKS Southern Hills office at 641-782-2119, ext. 45 for any questions about this event.

JOHNSTON — The Iowa Corn Growers Association’s (ICGA) Political Action Committee (PAC) has endorsed Joel Fry, a Republican from Osceola, for Iowa House District 27.

The voluntary ICGA PAC is an essential tool we use to help select political leaders like Representative Fisher who have demonstrated their support to the Iowa Corn Growers Association’s policy priorities.”

By Steve Waterman Osceola

Dear Independent voters and undecided Republicans and Democrats, Is there anyone in Iowa that is not upset at the direction of this presidential election? Counting the time before the Feb. 1 caucus, we have been bombarded for about 15 months. No wonder the people of Iowa, and probably the nation, are ready for this election to be over.

Most of us who are registered Democrats are frightened with any possibility of a Trump presidency. However, we also admit that the campaign of our candidate has not always been up to standard.

With early voting in less than two weeks and the Nov. 8 election day less than 50 days away, it is time for registered voters to decide.

Following are seven major issues Hillary Clinton stands for. You may not agree with them all. I suggest that if you agree with four or more of her

positions, then vote for her. If you honestly disagree with four or more of these positions, then vote for Trump.

• Create more good-paying jobs and raise incomes • Guarantee paid family and medical leave • Build and improve the Affordable Care Act • Combat climate change • Make our education system work for all children • End secret and unaccountable money in politics • Protect our rights (women’s rights; voting rights; immigrant’s rights; worker’s rights; in fact, all guaranteed constitutional rights and civil liberties) On January 20, 2017, the oath of office will be given to our next president. Of the choices, who do you want to serve our nation for the next four years? Will your vote be FOR a candidate or just a negative AGAINST a candidate?

Celebrate Constitution Week

By Marjorie Kinkade Creston

September 17-23 was proclaimed as Constitution Week when it was signed into public law No. 915 by President Dwight Eisenhower on Aug. 2,1956.

Earlier than that, Abraham Lincoln said “Our safety and our liberty depends on the preservation of the Constitution of the United States as our forefathers made it inviolate. The people of the United States are the masters of congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.”

Signed 229 years ago on Sept. 17, 1787, by 55 delegates of the Continental Congress in Philadelphia’s Independence Hall, the Constitution of the United States of America has been a guide for our good. It has enabled us to prosper as a nation for many years.

Many people do not even know that Constitution Week exists. We of the DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) are trying to help what it is all about. Posters and displays are being placed in the towns of our area by the members for you to see.

INTARSIA: CONT. FROM | 1

Mayors have signed proclamations, and there are articles in the newspapers and on the radio and TV. Check out these things and think about what the Constitution means to you.

You might read the preamble and think about what it says: We the people of the United States of America, in order to: Form a more perfect Union, Establish justice, Insure domestic tranquility, Provide for the common defense, Promote the genera welfare, and Secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and posterity, Do ordain and establish this Constitution for the united States of America.

We must understand that the privileges we have come to expect also come with responsibilities. Our commitment should be to our government, as well as to our fellow men and women.

We need teach our children to be respectable citizens and help them to get a good education. We must help in improving our communities and become better citizens ourselves.

Fly your flag during Constitution Week and say the pledge as you raise it!

Gypsy woman in Clarke County Jail

By Marie White

Clarke County Historical Society

Five gypsies, three women, a youth and baby are in the county jail awaiting charges of grand larceny following their arrest in the first of a series of crime events. They are charged with the theft of $685 from two Clarke County farmers.

Three well dressed members of their clan from Chicago were in the city attempting to make arrangements for the release of the gypsies. A couple came with the sheriff of Muscatine County and identified two of the women as those who took $80 out of a purse of the husband while he was directing them to a church two weeks ago. The gypsies were also wanted in Topeka, Kan. The gaudily dressed women, dirty baby and callow youth were soon the objects of a curious throng, which overflowed the jail yard.

The women, one of them expecting a child very soon,

he stayed active in the community with mayoral duties and substitute teaching. He served nine terms as mayor, starting his service in 1994.

Wheeler said Diehl’s legacy will be one of continual support and promotion of Osceola. He was someone who believed the city should hold itself to a higher standard, which is evident in his push for aggressive infrastructure redevelopment, the depot restoration and Clarke County Reservoir project.

“He was a good leader,” Wheeler said. “He had a very sound knowledge of the city, of its past, where it had been and how it had gotten to this point.

He was pretty blunt in his cri-

set up a terrible howl of innocence, but a little crowding was all the boy needed to make him confess. He admitted they had taken the money and said part of it was on the women and part in a feather bed in the car.

Two ladies were called to search the gypsies and a large sum of money was recovered.

Then, the feather bed was brought into one of the cells and one of the women ordered to rip it open and dumped the feathers on the floor.

The heap of dirty yellow feathers filled one corner of the cell three feet deep. Into this mess, one woman squatted and searched in vain. The boy was then commanded to start searching, and much to his distaste, also began pawing over the mess.

Finally, the other woman was brought into the cell and it took her only a few minutes to bring out a roll of bills, which when counted made the total amount recovered.

Soon after arriving in jail,

tique and wasn’t afraid to come out and offer criticism — constructive, most of the time.”

The city administrator said Diehl fostered healthy and supportive working relationships and never made a show of his expectations of others.

‘A good man’ “When we got to a meeting, he was business,” Wheeler said. “He was very supportive, and I think that’s why he was effective.”

Many officials had the chance to work alongside Diehl throughout his career in public service.

“He was a good a man and he tried to do the best he could for the city of Osceola,” said Councilman Dave Walkup. “That’s just the way he was.”

Walkup also described how Diehl was instrumental in bringing Lakeside Hotel and Casino to

one woman said she was in great pain and a doctor was called. He said it appeared she was about to give birth. He gave her some pain pills with directions to take one at stated intervals. She is reported to have taken them all at once.

In a few hours, she was carried to the hospital where she sat up and greatly moaned. A few days later, it was decided she was shamming and taken back to the jail, much to the relief of the patients and doctors at the hospital.

The “Gypsy King” from Chicago telephoned the sheriff several times to find out what could be done to get his subjects released. Three well dressed gypsies later came to town asking to see the county attorney, who told them it was his duty to enforce the law and he had no other interest.

Osceola finally rid itself of the gypsies when they plead guilty and were sentenced with fines and costs collected from them. Five year penitentiary sentences were suspended.

the city.

Train depot One of Diehl’s biggest improvements was his decades-long push to restore Osceola’s historic train depot.

In August 2015, Diehl and his wife were honored with the dedication of the train depot park being named the Fred and Ann Diehl Depot Plaza.

It’s fitting Diehl was able to attend a ribbon-cutting ceremony held at the train depot Aug. 1.

The event drew a large crowd from the community, and the Diehls were honored for spearheading the efforts.

There was nobody quite like Diehl, and he will be missed by many throughout the city and state.

“He’s made it a better place.

There’s no question about that,” Walkup said.

A review on his Facebook page stated, “Absolutely gorgeous! What a great gift you have been given to share with the world.”

Pages are paid and many schools offer class credit for a student’s work in the Legislature.

Rep. Fry is encouraging local students to apply for the 2017 Page program.

“The legislative page pro-

gram is a great way for high school students to see their state government in action. I hope area students will apply to serve as Legislative Pages next session,” Rep. Fry said.

The application for the 2017 Legislative Page Program is due no later than Friday, Oct. 7. To see more information or fill out an application, visit https:/www. legis.iowa.gov/agencies/careers/page.

Sweet homecoming finale n

Clarke football holds on to win first homecoming game in many years

CNA photos by RYAN KRONBERG

Clarke sophomore Conner Deutsch (21), junior Nick McVey, junior Nathan Porter and sophomore Kolby Hansen celebrate after the Indians’ 14-6 over Chariton in Class 2A District 6 play Friday on Homecoming night in Osceola.

By RYAN KRONBERG OST sports editor rkronberg@osceolaiowa. com

OSCEOLA — Four days earlier after a gut-wrenching loss to Centerville, Clarke senior Brandyne Olin implored his teammates not to give up on their season.

Olin’s teammates took his message to heart in Friday’s homecoming game against Chariton.

As the clock wound down, Olin and his teammates ran around the field with smiles a plenty, celebrating a thrilling moment for the Indian program as a capacity crowd on the home side roared its approval.

Behind a touchdown run from Andy Hurtado and a long interception return for a touchdown from Olin, the Indians were able to earn a 14-6 win over the Chargers.

Clarke won homecoming for what is to believed the first time in many years, with some estimates approaching 30 years.

Olin stood in front of his teammates after the Sept. 12 weather-delayed demoralizing 47-8 loss to Centerville imploring them to stick with the season.

Olin’s teammates listened.

“I told them we had to keep looking forward. We can’t look backwards anymore. We had to stay 0-0 and, no matter what happened before this game, this game was the most important game of the season,” Olin said. “Our guys came out and executed.”

The coaching staff harped on a similar message between games.

“The message is if it’s not now, it’s not never,” said assistant coach Aaron O’Tool.

“The message is if you’re not going to win now, it’s going to be a rough season.”

Olin and his teammates listened. By game’s end Friday, Olin and his teammates were beaming about what the win meant.

“This is the best feeling of my life,” Olin said. “I’ve never had any feeling better. We haven’t won homecoming in 30 years.

We’re going to be Olin remembered forever, my class and everybody else who participated in this.

“I couldn’t be more proud of my team and myself. We played really well.”

Clarke called on its defense throughout. The Indians picked off four Charger passes, including one by Jon Bair with 5:42 left that stopped a Charger drive into Clarke territory.

“Our defense came up clutch,” O’Tool said.

Clarke’s defense held Chariton to 10-of-32 passing for 180 yards. The Chargers were limited to 22 yards on 27 carries.

“Our defense played phenomenal,” O’Tool said.

After Clarke was forced to punt, the defense was called on one more time. The Indian defense forced a quick three-and-out, giving the Indians the ball back with three minutes to go.

The offense delivered. A

19-yard run by Garett Moore on second-and-11 gave the Indians a first down in Chariton territory. On third-and-1, Nathan Bair rumbled for 4 yards for a game-clinching first down.

Clarke finally broke through on the scoreboard in the third quarter. The Indians marched 60 yards over nine plays, capped by Andy Hurtado’s 8-yard run. Hurtado’s pass to Gabe Crawford for the two-point conversion gave the Indians an 8-0 lead with 8:59 to go in the third.

It marked the second time this season Clarke held a lead.

The Indians made some slight adjustments at halftime. Those minor tweaks showed up on the first drive of the second half.

“We told the guys at halftime if it’s going to happen, it has to be on the first drive,” O’Tool said. “They listened.”

The points were badly needed after the offense sputtered on three separate occasions inside the Chariton 35 yard line in the first half. Twice, the Indians had the ball inside the Chargers 10-yard line and came away with no points.

“We had opportunities in that first half,” O’Tool said.

“When we hit the 20-yard line, we freeze, we freak out, then we don’t capitalize.

That’s something we have to improve on.”

On the ensuing Chariton drive in the second half, the Chargers marched to the Clarke 20-yard line. A false start penalty backed the Chargers up 5 yards. Two incomplete passes set up the

Chargers with third-andlong. A 10-yard pass gave the Chargers fourth-and-resonable.

That’s when the defense came up with a play Clarke football fans will long remember. Conner Deutsch tipped a Jackson Fisher pass, and Olin was right there for the interception.

Aided by a big block from Gabe Crawford, Olin raced down the far sideline 90 yards for the score.

Olin’s interception for a score was the longest such play in school history.

“Conner stepped in front of me and tipped it,” Olin said. “I caught and I got a big ol’ block from Gabe Crawford.

“All I saw was green and I couldn’t be more happy.”

Olin was huffing and puffing deeply by the time he reached the south endzone.

“I’ve never run so hard in my life,” he said. “I almost collapsed in the endzone.”

Chariton’s offense finally broke through in the fourth quarter. On a fourth-and-14 at the Indians’ yard line, a long pass turned into a

touchdown. The extra point kick was blocked, leaving the Indians up 14-6 with 7:27 to go.

Clarke would hold on on this night.

“We believed in ourselves,” Olin said. “We believed if we execute our plays that we couldn’t lose.”

UP NEXT — Clarke, 1-3, 1-1, is on the road at Davis County. The Mustangs, 1-3, 0-2, fell to Eddyville-Blakesburg-Fremont 32-29.

“That’s definitely a winnable game,” O’Tool said. “The guys have to come prepared and stay focused.”

7 SPORTS Tigers pounce early on Mustangs, 36-6 OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE

By LARRY PETERSON OST senior feature writer lpeterson@crestonnews. com

MURRAY — Lenox scored on the first play from scrimmage to set the tone in a 36-6 victory on Murray’s homecoming Friday night at Keith Shields Field.

Seventeen seconds into the game, the Tigers owned an 8-0 lead on a 49-yard pass from Dawson Tullberg to Sam Donaldson, and a successful conversion pass from Tullberg to Noah Standley. “We had a blown coverage there,� said Murray coach Taylor Fulton. “Our guy thought he was going to jump a screen play and it ended up going for a long touchdown.

We came out and it didn’t look like we were ready to play. I know there are a lot of distractions and stuff with homecoming, but the guys need to come out ready and firing.�

Lenox coach Matt Malausky said his team’s success with a different play in previous games set up the opening touchdown. “We ran that bubble screen

real successfully the last two weeks, so we thought we’d run a bubble-go (route) and see if they bite,� Malausky said. “Those are the ones you see dropped, he was so open. Sam got it and took off for the end zone to get us off to a good start.�

That’s the kind of opening shot the versatile Tullberg likes as the Tigers’ dual-threat quarterback this season. “We got things rolling pretty fast,� Tullberg said. “We like to play fast and get them tired.�

The Tigers’ 28-player roster showed more depth and more weapons on the field Friday against the Mustangs’ squad of 19. And, Murray senior running back Jack Jones returned after missing the East Union game with a painful foot injury suffered in a weight-training accident.

Jones managed 31 rushing yards on 15 carries and teammate Dustin Teas was held to 17 yards on 11 attempts. “We are playing real well as a unit defensively,� Malausky said. “Offensively, Dawson distributed the ball well, both in the option game

and through the air.�

Quick start Lenox raced to a 28-0 lead in the first quarter and got the 35-point running clock before halftime with a 36-0 lead. Murray’s lone score came in the final two minutes as reserves were on the field for both teams. Freshman quarterback Reece Held ran two yards for a touchdown for the Mustangs.

Tullberg and senior Jared Hensley had productive nights on both sides of the ball. Tullberg rushed for 114 yards and two touchdowns, competed five passes for 101 yards and three more TDs, returned a punt 40 yards and had four touchbacks among his six kickoffs. On defense he intercepted two Murray passes and finished with five solo tackles and two assists.

receptions totaling 38 yards, and on defense finished with a pass interception and 14 total tackles, including nine solo stops.

Noah Standley and Derek Venteicher combined for 17 tackles from the Tigers’ defensive front, including six tackles for losses. “Lenox is a great team and Tullberg is a heck of an athlete,� Fulton said. “Our front four defensively is pretty tough,� Malausky said. “With Colby Lange out with injury we have Donaldson and Standley on the ends with Venteicher and Dillon Mendez inside.�

Key matchup They’ll need all of their firepower in this week’s homecoming matchup with undefeated East Union.

Both the Eagles and Tigers received votes for the Associated Press top 10 poll last week. “East Union is a big, phys-

ical team that will come ready to play,� Tullberg said. “We just have to come out ready, too. It should be a really good game.�

East Union enters the week at (4-0, 2-0) while Lenox is 3-1. Both are 2-0 in Eight-Man District 6 play.

Murray, (2-2, 0-2), plays at Stanton this week.

Fulton expects Jones’ recovery to continue after showing he could play Friday. “He’s been medically cleared so we wanted to give him a decent workload tonight to just gauge where he is at,� Fulton said. “He came out at the end of the third quarter tonight so we could properly care for that injury an be sure he’s with us the rest of the year.�

As we recognize

National Farm Safety Week, please join us in promoting safe and healthy practices on our area farms!

NATIONAL FARM SAFETY September 18-24, 2016 WEEK

We Salute Our Farm Industry!

We’re grateful to our nation’s farmers for the important role they play in supporting our economy and our prosperity.

Farmers face a variety of challenges every day, and one of those challenges is maintaining a safe work environment.

What’s Appropriate - Farms and Kids Many accidents to children on the farm occur when a child is doing something that is beyond his or her mental, physical or emotional ability.

Children are more likely to be injured or killed than adults. Each year, hundreds of these children die and thousands are injured on the farm where they live, work and play.

Children are vulnerable to many of the same hazards as adults who live or work on farms, but they are far less capable of understanding those hazards. Although parents cannot completely child-proof a farm, they need to make it as safe as possible.

Farm parents can take these precautions to prevent children from getting hurt on the farm: • Find out what the developmental characteristics of children are at specific ages.

• Identify the dangerous areas on your farm.

• Set up appropriate rules for children to follow.

• Supervise children according to their age.

No family should have to experience the loss of a beloved child’s health or life.

Here are a few essential tips every farmer should keep in mind for safety’s sake: Make sure tractors are equipped with rollover protection and appropriate shields.

Use equipment lights, flashers and reflectors whenever necessary.

Test farm equipment and machinery regularly for proper functioning.

When hitching and unhitching implements, always use proper equipment and procedures.

Always follow confined - space safety rules when entering a manure pit, grain bin or silo.

Train employees to use equipment properly and review safety procedures with them.

Learn basic first aid and CPR techniques.

Before assigning a farm task to a child, make sure the child is able to perform that task safely, and always provide adult supervision.

The Farmer’s Prayer God made heaven, then made earth. He then gave us man who, on this land, will do our work. Without the work of the farmer the world would not exist. Americans would not enjoy the food and the comforts never missed.

Let’s stand behind the farmers for the work they have done and pray for all their families who help make America number one.

Beware of viruses

By Chuck DeVos

Lead Pastor LifePoint Church

I’m a bit of a computer geek. I have several security programs that run on every computer at the office and at my home. I’m a backup junkie! Every important file is backed up nightly in at least three locations. I want the information to be secure in the event of any kind of data loss.

So awhile back, when my wife informed me that the firewall on our home computer had indicated that a virus was attempting to “attack” our system, I had to check it out.

Indeed, a virus was attempting to make it’s way in — so I fought back and was ultimately able to win! Whew!

A man whose company provides data security for military space operations explained how vulnerable computers are to outside attack. During a training exercise, hackers were able to shut down a highly protected system without ever stealing a password or cracking a code.

They simply accessed the unsecured maintenance program for the building that housed the computers and turned off the air conditioning. When the computer room became too hot, the system automatically shut down.

In computers, whether personal or military, it’s important to keep up your guard in order to protect against unwanted scenarios with your data information. The same applies to life.

Sometimes we get comfortable where we are in life, with how things are going. But overconfidence and a false sense of security can cause us to let down our guard, and when that happens things start to “creep in” to our lives that we really don’t want to be there.

Things like criticism, being judgmental, rudeness and being short tempered — to name a few — can begin to define our character in short order. That’s why it’s so im-

portant to guard our hearts.

Proverbs 4:23 tells us: Above all else, guard your heart, for it affects everything you do.

Notice, our heart affects EVERYTHING we do.

That’s why it is so critical that we guard our hearts. When the “viruses” of criticism, cutting speech, anger, bitterness — the list could go on — begin to make their way into our hearts, they begin to come out in our lives. The end result is always damage — to ourselves and to others. Always.

“Can’t happen to me.” No? 1 Corinthians 10:12 cautions us: people who think they are standing firmly should be careful that they don’t fall.

Another translation of the Bible says it this way: Don’t be so naive and self-confident. You’re not exempt. You could fall flat on your face as easily as anyone else. Forget about self-confidence; it’s useless. Cultivate God-confidence.

Let me encourage you to do a little heart examination.

Are you finding yourself being overly critical? Angry without apparent cause? Sharp tongued? Those are indicators of something deeper going on. It’s time for a heart examination.

Remember, the heart affects everything we do. If you find something there that shouldn’t be, it’s time for a little “surgery” to remove it. Ask God to use the scalpel of His love and grace to remove the things that shouldn’t be there. Surgery isn’t much fun, but the end result is a much better heart and life.

HCI Care Services and Visiting Nurse Services of Iowa named a 2016 Top Workplace

Colby Wilken shows his Grand Champion Purebred Landrace.

Osceola Big Chief FFA members participate in Iowa State Fair Many Osceola Big Chief FFA members participated at the 2016 Iowa State Fair.

Carter and Colby Wilken showed swine, Nathan Manternach showed sheep, Erin

McBroom was an FFA usher, Ashton Spidle showed horses and Noah Heckman worked in the 4-H building as a state council member.

Carter received two blues

with his commercial gilts.

Colby received Champion Purebred Landrace and a blue ribbon. Manternach received two blue ribbons and a blue herdsmanship ribbon.

Spidle received three blues and a red.

Congrats to the FFA members on the success, recognition and representation at the Iowa State Fair.

HCI Care Services and Visiting Nurse Services of Iowa (VNS of Iowa) has been awarded a 2016 Top Workplaces honor by The Des Moines Register.

The Top Workplaces lists are based solely on the results of an employee feedback survey administered by WorkplaceDynamics, LLC, a research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement. Several aspects of workplace culture were measured, including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.

“We’re proud to be a Top Workplace, but the real thanks goes to our more than 400 employees and hundreds of volunteers who believe in our non-profit mission and care about the people we serve,” said Tray Wade, president and CEO of HCI Care Services and VNS of Iowa.

The HCI Hospice Care

Services team, with locations in Osceola and Winterset, is part of the HCI Care Services & VNS of Iowa family of services. Organization-wide, the non-profit reaches 44 counties and serves more than 128,000 individuals and their families with critical health care and social services.

“The Top Workplaces award is not a popularity contest,” said Doug Claffey, chief executive officer of WorkplaceDynamics. “But to be a Top Workplace, organizations must meet our strict standards for organizational health. And who better to ask about work life than the people who live the culture every day — the employees. Time and time again, our research has proven that what’s most important to them is a strong belief in where the organization is headed, how it’s going to get there, and the feeling that everyone is in it together.”
