National Junk Food Day: a D JRRG GD\ WR VWXII LW a

7H[W DQG 3KRWRV %\ 5$< %$/2*+ 6WDII :ULWHU “I’m afraid someday they’ll ﬁnd me “Just stretched out on my bed “With a handful of Pringles Potato Chips “And a Ding Dong by my head. “... At night I’m a junk food junkie. “Good Lord, have pity on me.” Celebrating National Junk Food Day, Wednesday, July 21, need not end up in the tragicomic demise de-

picted by Larry Groce in the 1976 novelty song “Junk Food Junkie.” Just don’t overdo the gastronomic reveling associated with the day, whose origin remains unknown. Junk foods range from candies to baked treats to popcorn to soda pop to chili dogs and bacon cheeseburgers. Some consider bacon and pizza to be junk foods. Others extend the deﬁnition to include TV dinners and other packaged meals. In any event, junk food was a largely responsibly consumed tangent in American life until after World War II, when the popula-

tion was traveling more and embraced the convenience of eating at fast food restaurants, which today number more than 300,000. In the 1970s microbiologist Michael Jacobson coined the term “junk food” to curb the demand for sustenance high in fats, sugars, salt, preservatives and calories. The harmful effects of persistent consumption of nutritionally deﬁcient, albeit enticing, junk food are well known. But celebrating with gusto one day a year will hardly cause debilitation, so enjoy the day.

We asked several Kosciusko County residents about their favorite junk foods. Their answers appear here. * $ < 1 2 5 :25'(1 ³ , ZRXOG KDYH WR VD\ ,·P SDUWLDO WR FLQQDPRQ UROOV 7KLV LV GLIIHUHQW IURP ZKHQ , ZDV D NLG 7KHQ P\ ID YRULWH ZDV D ER[ RI IUXLW ÁDYRUHG 'RWV JXPGURSV

SSome JJunk k FFood d TTrivia i i • 50 million — one in seven — Americans eat fast food every day.

• On average, it takes 364 licks to reach the center of a Tootsie Pop.

• White Castle started in 1921 with a loan of $80 and is considered the nation’s first fast food restaurant. • Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups were originally named “Penny Cups,” though the first individually wrapped penny candy was the Tootsie Roll.

• Snickers was named for Frank Mars’s favorite horse, and Tootsie Roll was named for the inventor’s 5-year-old daughter Clara’s nickname.

• Production of junk food in America is prodigious. Rolling out of factories every day: 5.5 million cookies, 27 million donuts, 1.4 million Twinkies, 400 million M&Ms, 200 million Skittles, a quarter million chocolate Easter bunnies and more than 2,700 miles of Twizzlers. • A process called triboluminescence causes most hard sugar candy to spark when chewed. Wintergreen Life Savers spark the brightest because their chemical flavoring is luminescent.

• Despite Groce’s reference, the Food and Drug Administration prohibits Pringles from using the term “potato chips” for its products, as they contain only 42% potato-based ingredients.

• Every year Americans eat 13 billion hamburgers, 20 billion hot dogs, 70 million tater tots, 1.3 billion gallons of ice cream and frozen yogurt, 16 billion jellybeans, 700 million marshmallow Peeps and more than 2 billion popsicles, with cherry being the most popular flavor.

Hollar finds passion and purpose with BBBS was crazy powerful,” Hollar emphasized, and ensured him he was on the right path. Since the lunch program ends after sixth grade, Hollar soon switched to the community-based program with Chris. They get together about twice a month and ﬁnd things to do in the community. Each month there are also different match activities put on by BBBS. However, some favorite activities are laser tag and paintball. He has enjoyed watching Chris grow and mature and hearing the feedback that ensures Hollar he is making a difference. Now that Chris is 17 years old, Hollar is also helping prepare Chris for the future by taking him on a tour of Zimmer and sharing the wealth of career opportunities in the area. Hollar was excited to discover he could continue the program with Chris until he turns 22 in order to help him through college and entering the adult world. A new opportunity in BBBS arose for Hollar recently when he became co-chair of the Kosciusko County Ambassadors Committee. He describes the committee as “full of volunteers who are super passionate about it (BBBS).” His role revolves around assisting with programming, such as the Big Futures program. Big Futures targets middle school and high school students to help them begin to think about their future careers with a STEM focus. However, Hollar emphasized it won’t all be about STEM. They hope to offer a wide array of opportunities including writing, art and

%\ 1,&+2/(77( &$5/621 6WDII :ULWHU A little more than six years ago, Zane Hollar had started his job at Zimmer Biomet in quality engineering, bought his ﬁrst home and he “felt like it was time to start giving back to the community.” However, he was unsure how he wanted to give back. He went online and began searching for volunteer opportunities in the community. One immediately jumped out at him — Big Brothers Big Sisters. Hollar applied online and interviewed to be a Big. Approximately a month after BBBS completed his background check and called on his references, he discovered he had matched with a Little named Chris. He started in the Lunch Buddies program, which he believes is the perfect segue into the program. “The feeling when I walked out the ﬁrst time I volunteered

He has a plan in place for his group and envisions eventual monthly or bimonthly meetings, coming in with new questions each time to keep the progress moving. The ambassador committee only began a few months

ago, however, so they are still in between the planning and implementation of ideas stages. Hollar grew up and continues to live in the Warsaw area. He believes he was drawn to the program because of his own upbringing and the handful of positive role models in his own life who left a lasting impact. He loves summertime and ﬁtness. Running is his passion. Hollar completed a half

marathon and will run his ﬁrst marathon in November. His long-term goal is to compete in an Iron Man. He also enjoys biking, Brazilian jiu jitsu, golﬁng and spending time with friends. “If someone is interested in giving back and helping the community, one of the coolest ways you can help the community is one person at a time,” Hollar stated.

Warsaw Library shares thoughts on Anti-Boredom Month %\ 0(/,66$ &+$30$1 &DWDORJLQJ 6XSHUYLVRU Have you been bored this month? July is considered National Anti-Boredom Month. Sometimes it’s not that you are necessarily bored, but maybe you aren’t thinking of ways to use your time sufﬁciently. Boredom is subjective to the individual. There are people who are content with staying in bed all day and they’ll never get bored,

but others have to get out. During Anti-Boredom Month, you are encouraged to find out what makes you bored and to find ways to stop the boredom. Finding creative and healthy ways to beat boredom will improve our everyday lives. Once you’ve identified your causes, approach boredom with a set of positive challenges or stimuli to keep it at bay. What are some ways to beat boredom? Take some time to

‘Celebrating Survivorship’ to be at YMCA Aug. 9 “Celebrating Survivorship” is a time of learning and support for those who had cancer. These events are free to cancer survivors, their spouses, family, and caregivers at any stage of their journey. This is a free lunch and a presentation from a doctor will be about the gut-brain connection. The event will be from 11:30 a.m. 12:30 p.m. Aug. 9, at the YMCA in Warsaw. It will be presented by Dr. Reshi Kanuru of

Fort Wayne Gastroenterology. Topic-oriented sessions will be combined with a light catered lunch in a “lunch and learn” format. Registration is required by visiting www.kcymca.org/programsand-classes/learning/celebratingsurvivorship. Child care will be available for YMCA members. YMCA is located at 1305 Mariners Drive, Warsaw. Call (574) 269-9622 to learn more.

learn something new, take a cooking class, learn how to draw, write a story or teach yourself to knit. Take your dog to a dog park, start a garden or watch a movie you’ve never seen. Explore your community. Find a place to volunteer, visit a local farmers’ market or look for festivals and events near you. Do you have kids experiencing summer boredom? For children, the anticipation of summer fun wanes as the summer goes on and all those previously fun activities start to feel stale. Having a campout in the backyard or building an awesome indoor fort with them is great fun. Get creative by ﬁnding crafts and activities for the whole family, like scrapbooking, sewing or woodworking. You could even turn on the lawn sprinkler and run through it as you did when you were a kid. Your kids and dog will love it. Another way to ﬁght boredom is to get moving with exercise. Take a dance or yoga class. Walk around your neighborhood or one of the many trails in Warsaw and Winona Lake. Warsaw Community Pub-

County Attorney Ed Ormsby said Indiana law provides 50 percent of meetings can be missed in person and can instead be done virtually; however, commissioners previously expressed concern about that ﬁgure and instead agreed to a 35 percent limit. In other matters: • Emergency Management Agency Director Ed Rock was given approval to apply for a $15,000 hazardous materials training grant. • County Administrator Marsha McSherry was given the OK to proceed with applying for an Indiana Healthy Workplaces grant. • McSherry also received approval to seek out a request for proposal regarding conﬁguration of the county justice building parking lot.

County Auditor Michelle Puckett presented the 2022 county holiday calendar, which was adopted by the commissioners. The calendar includes holidays as well as dates of commissioners meetings. The commissioners will continue to meet Tuesdays during 2022 except for Nov. 8, which is election day. That week’s meeting will be held Monday. Attorney Travis McConnell later inquired if Juneteenth is included in the 2022 county holidays. Puckett said the new federal holiday is not among the approved holidays. She explained the holidays approved by commissioners are not a complete, all-inclusive list of federal holidays but rather some of the main ones the county has observed historically. She added each county employee has two ﬂoating holidays that may be used at their discretion. Commissioners also approved

adding to present otherwise is a violation of county commissioners duties. This led to a round of applause by many in attendance. In another matter, County Clerk Ann Torpy announced there will be a public meeting at 6 p.m. Thursday, July 22, to discuss the initial county vote center plan. The meeting will be held in the old courtroom and will allow for public comments. Torpy also received permission to purchase encoders for ePoll books. “The encoders attach to the iPad and program the vote cards speciﬁcally for each voter as they sign in so that way when the poll worker goes to the voting machine they place that vote card in the machine and it will pull up that speciﬁc voter’s ballot so they can go ahead and cast their votes. It’ll make it a lot easier, especially in larger vote centers that are a little busier,” Torpy explained.

A rather quiet Kosciusko County Commissioners meeting July 6, involving standard items such as grant requests and adoption of the county’s 2022 calendar, became a bit more spirited toward the end when residents raised issues about an upcoming public meeting that will likely touch on the Critical Race Theory. After the last item on the agenda was addressed, President Bob Conley asked if there was any further business to come before the commissioners. Brian Smith of Leesburg spoke up and asked if the county is paying the rental fee to use the Winona Heritage Room for a July 8 public meeting where Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita discussed his office’s “Parents’ Bill of Rights” and concerns over CRT. The event featuring Rokita was originally planned as a special commissioners’ meeting, however, due to the amount of interest it was moved. Responding to Smith’s question, Conley replied, “I think that was taken care of by the attorney general’s office. They’re putting everything together. We were asked to be there and represent the community and that’s the extent that we are involved.” Don Zolman approached the podium and said he’s working to create an online petition urging county officials to focus on county business. He’s calling the petition a “Taxpayer Bill of Rights.” The petition says Kosciusko County deserves to have county

officials work in the best interests of the health of Kosciusko County residents. “When they don’t follow government mandates and scientifically proven data, they make taxpayers and themselves liable for damages due to illness, injury and death caused by exposing the public to disease,” Zolman said, adding when there is scientific information, the county should be focusing on that and putting those mandates in place. He then referenced “county commissioners passing ordinances or resolutions to which they fight to have constitutional authority.” Zolman said county officials have no right to determine what is or is not constitutional. “Those answers lie with Congress and the Supreme Court of the United States of America, not the county commissioners of Kosciusko County,” Zolman said,

www.the-papers.com — the PAPER — Wednesday, July 21, 2021

What will my next topic be? I sat at my desk, my computer screen before me to compose my next newspaper article. I had the heading of any article on the computer screen, but nothing more. I wasn’t looking at the computer screen, however. I was looking out the window behind the screen, watching the birds ﬂying about in the trees and bushes and to the bird feeder outside the window. The sky was blue and clear,

there wasn’t a cloud in sight. This was a day to be outside, not sitting inside at my desk. I’d been outside. The temperature was chilly, not cold, and there were many birds in the trees and bushes. There was a female red-winged blackbird on the feeder. A house wren landed on the feeder, beside the redwing, and another. The redwing flew but another redwing promptly took the place of the first. Then a purple finch and a black-capped chickadee landed on the feeder. I had just recently written about wrens. A pair had built a nest in the eave of the front porch of my home and their nestlings had now left the nest, become fledglings. The family had been in the yard when I was out earlier, two adult wrens and COUPON PLU PL #1099

three fledglings. A white-breasted nuthatch landed on the edge of the roof of the feeder, head down, then dropped to the feeder platform. An adult male cardinal flew in and the chickadee and nuthatch flew out, to a branch of a nearby tree. I could write about any of those birds. I could write about the weather, which was very pleasant when I’d been out earlier, but had been stormy days before. Recently, I wrote about stormy weather I’d seen, a tornado, hurricanes and typhoons. I could write about efforts to reduce the amount of CO2 being discharged into the air or about global warming. I could write about the cowbird that had landed on the bird feeder or the hummingbird I had seen on the hummingbird feeder outside the dining room window earlier as I ate breakfast.

Outdoor Notes, the title of my articles, is almost unlimiting. It includes all outdoors, anything outdoors, not just birds, but other animals, the three opossums I’d seen in the road a few days ago for example, a mother and two little ones, all dead. I’d stopped, got out of my car, and with tears in my eyes, moved them out of the road. It included the sandhill cranes that had nested in our pasture and the two little ones they’d had. It included the fawns I’d been seeing. It included plants, the early spring blossoms, the blossoms on the trees, now the summer ﬂowers. So what was I going to write about today? What was my next topic going to be? I thought about birds named for people, but how many are there? I don’t know them, don’t remember them. That subject would require a lot of reading, a lot

of time, and I didn’t feel like spending that much time. Besides, I had a deadline, just two more days before I should mail the next article. I could write about the questions I’ve received from readers of my articles. Recently, I received a picture of a bird nest and a question, what species of bird made the nest. I didn’t know. I still don’t know, though I’ve tried to ﬁnd a picture of it. There’s the picture of a hawk I received. The bird was ﬂying. Was it a Cooper’s or a sharpshinned hawk, but the picture was not sharp. The tail wasn’t clear and I couldn’t tell whether it was a Cooper’s or a sharpie. Questions are welcome. They indicate readers. Without readers, newspaper editors would not publish my articles. So what should I write about this week that would interest readers?

Famous artist series — Titian

%\ '$5/$ 0&&$0021 *XHVW :ULWHU

Let’s get his name right. He is tremendously famous and his name is pronounced TIH=SHUN and rhymes with tie-shun. Titian was born in a small village in the Italian Alps. But as youngsters, Titian and his brother were welcomed to their uncle’s home in Venice where they were to learn a trade. Titian tried several tutors and different trades than the art he preferred, but good fortune smiled on him. He was accepted as a student, where he learned excellent art practices from Giovanni Bellini, who happened to be very advanced in new techniques in oil painting. Bellini was considered one of the best artists in Italy. Venice was one of the best landing places for a striving artist. The city of Venice, itself huge and prosperous, also controlled an enormous empire. Bellini and Titian were in high demand. It was not long before Titian, on the death of Bellini in 1516, became the ofﬁcial

painter of this great Republic. Titian’s patrons were of the highest level of society and his friends, such as the Duke of Mantua, boosted his career to the elevated level of friendship and approval by Charles V, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. Some of the princes of this empire competed for the work of Titian and a few became angry at the slow progress of Titian’s fastidious and careful manipulation of the paint on his canvas. Their frustration, however, had to be tempered as they could no longer ﬁnd a competitor to replace Titian since both Raphael and Leonardo Da Vinci had both died in 1520 and 1519. Titian was known to be charming and a welcome guest at the highest levels of society, thus he became one of the wealthiest and most successful court painters in history. Titian produced a painting titled “Sacred and Profane Love.” Most experts believe this was a tribute to Aurelio’s new bride, but others question that explanation. Regard-

less of interpretation, this painting is representative of the talent of Titian. His brushwork in oil paint was judged to have excelled before all other artists before his time. As old age began to creep into Titian’s fingers, his son, Orazio, also very talented, began running a workshop in which paintings were produced by Orazio and the staff with a few final flourishes by Titian. One nobleman, an admirer from Spain, was heard to say, “I believe that a blotch by Titian will be better than anything by another artist.” Kelly Shoemaker’s exhibit will be at Warsaw City Hall Art Gallery for the next two to three months. The Lakeland Artisan Holiday Show, always a big success, will be Oct. 23, at Center Lake Pavilion, Warsaw. Email LakelandartAssociation.com@gmail.com to request an entry form and regulations.

OBITUARIES Arden E. Ayres

Melvin Jones Fellowship Award Winner Arden E. Ayres, 101, North Manchester, reunited with his wife in the Kingdom of Heaven Wednesday, July 14, 2021. Born in Wabash County on Oct. 3, 1919, Arden was the son of the late Edward and Ruth (Metzger) Ayres. After graduating from Sidney High School in $5'(1 ( 1937, Arden began his life as a farmer, which later $<5(6 helped him to provide for his family. He also became involved in the cattle business and was a Pioneer Seed salesman for 25 years before retiring in 1997. Before retiring, however, Arden received the International and Indiana Distinguished Achievement Awards in both 2004 and 2005. He also received the Melvin Jones Fellowship Award through the Lions Club, where he was a 50-year member. On Feb. 24, 1940, Arden’s life changed forever when he married his soulmate and best friend, Mary Elizabeth Badskey. During their 77 years together, Arden and Mary traveled throughout Europe as ambassadors of the United States for education on farming. The most important thing they did together, though, was worship their lord and savior Jesus Christ and teach their children about the love and compassion he had for the world. For 25 years, Arden taught Sunday school at the First Brethren Church in North Manchester. He also served as a deacon for the Congregational Christian Church, where he was a member, and then became deacon emeritus. His faith, as well as his family’s love and support, helped him through the passing of his wife on Oct. 31, 2017, and the loss of a grandson and great-grandson. The loving memory of Arden E. Ayres will be forever cherished by his daughter, Becky Sue (David) Long, Yorba Linda, Calif.; sons, Terry (Toni) Ayres, Leesburg, David (Sheri) Ayres, South Whitley, and Dennis (Annette) Ayres, North Manchester; brother, Bill (Clara) Ayres, Tipton; grandchildren, Tricia Robinson, Trent Ayres, Brad, Bryan, Brendon and Brandt Watrous, Denver and Jason Ayres, Hilari Goris Halie Harris, Ryan and Andy Ayres, Abbie Richards, Erin Long and Lisa DeSana; 36 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.
