Calhoun theater hopeful in getting ‘Peter Pan’ musical off the ground By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald The production’s standing has been up in the air for months. The Calhoun Entertainment Company (CEC) was set to put on a production of “Peter Pan,� in March, but because of COVID-19 related restrictions, they were unable to do so. Since, the musical has been in limbo, with company leaders evaluating how they might still be able to perform for the Calhoun residents, and it appears the wait on what will be done with Peter Pan will soon be over. Jerry Sievers, production director and CEC founder, announced they are considering an outdoor performance on the main stage of the Calhoun County fairgrounds in September, and that there will be a meeting Thursday among officers and board members to vote on what to do next, where a “final decision� will be made. This would be the second outdoor performance for the theater company, Sievers said, with the first being a production of “Nunsense.�
“I think we had already done it once in the AV room at Calhoun High School, and we were trying to find something for the Thursday night of the fair, so we decided to repeat that musical,� he said. “But that was only fix or six nuns and a puppet. It was a very small cast. That was the one

The Calhoun Fair Board has yet to announce a decision on whether they will be hosting a fair. Surrounding counties, such as Greene and Jersey,

Some have expressed a concern or hesitation that the move would be too much of a risk for them personally, meaning possible changes to the cast, but many appear to be OK with the idea. “Most of them are all for it, just as
long as everyone follows the precautions,� Sievers said. They plan to ask people to wear a mask and properly social distance, which should be feasible, Sievers indicated. According to a social media post from the Calhoun Entertainment Company Community Theater, should the outdoor production be given the green light, rehearsal for “Peter Pan� could begin as early as August. Outside of it being outdoors, this production of Peter Pan may be different from what was envisioned for the project — namely when it comes to the flying. This year’s musical was set to mark a first for the theater company. Sievers said past productions have had a form of flying before, namely in the “Wizard of Oz� with Glinda the Good Witch, but this year’s production would have some of their characters flying in a way that has not been done in the 30 productions before it.

n 1920, the world was a heck of a lot different than what it is today, but in 100 years, things are bound to change. Back in those days, all the vogue young ladies in Hardin were sporting paper ribbons in their hair and the Apple Kingdom had many foreigners coming over in the modern Ford Model T, to the dismay of easily frightened horses everywhere. Some of the Doughboys were still returning from that “war to end all wars�, and the fury of the Spanish flu pandemic was dying down. A new era was dawning– one that would be encapsulated in the spirit of those such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, George Gershwin and Lillian Gish. America was living in newfound glory, building an empire of credit that would one day topple down and usher in the troubles of the Great Depression. And though the world beyond the rivers carried on in all its pomp and circumstance, amid the summer splendor of hopeful harvest, Calhoun county would welcome one of its most cherished daughters into the

Telephonic system eyed for county CALHOUN NEWS-HERALD
VOLUME 147 - ISSUE 30
By CONNOR ASHLOCK Calhoun News-Herald The Calhoun Commissioners spoke heavily Monday evening of an IT-based service known as Once Call Now for the county. It is a system that could potentially be used to alert the county or immediately affected persons in the event of a natural disaster or other situation. This service offers several packages to choose from, but the overall concern among the commissioners was if it would be worth the cost that would be incurred from it. How the program works is those interested in being on the call list would sign up by calling the agency that the county government designates for handling the system, which would likely be the sheriff’s department. In the event of an emergency such as a flood, water main break or tornado, the system would send out a message to every number on the call list, whether it be a landline or cell phone. The system is a creditsbased system, meaning that the county would pay for so
many credits, and one credit would be charged for every message that was successfully delivered to those on the call list. The concern over that is the cost of credits. The county could expect to pay up to $2,200, depending on the amount of credits that would be purchased, in addition to the $95 start-up fee. The benefit of the system is that there would be only one source of information going out to the entire county or affected region of the county, thus everyone would be on the same page as far as government-disseminated information goes. Another benefit of the program would be that those who are not on social media or don’t have access to the internet will still be able to receive updates in the event of an emergency, instead of having to rely on a neighbor or regional news network. The commissioners see that a system is needed in the county to help keep citizens updated, but they are still wading through the intricacies of (See, SYSTEM, A3)

By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald Many have registered for school in area districts, and with that, questions have been raised regarding what school will look like for students coming back in the fall. For the last quarter of school last year, students in the county and across the state had to work from home because of COVID-19 related restrictions. Now, with more relaxed state guidelines and a general interest in seeing learning return to the schools building, school officials are now working out how exactly it might look to be back in the classroom. Based on initial reactions from school leaders, it is a complicated and time-consuming process to fully lay out what schooling might look like in Calhoun and Brussels for the fall semester and the year as a whole. Recently, the districts were sent documents outlining the guidelines set for schools this coming fall along with invitations to various statewide webinars further explaining the Illinois State Board of Education’s guidance on the matter. While the guidance is intricate, and in some cases laborious, it has been left up to the
districts on how to implement the state’s health safety rules. Really, there are three options on the table: in-person, blended/hybrid and remote learning. And, in local districts, leaders are leaning toward in-person instruction, but in a way that is safe. “We are going to do everything we can to not be required to go back to remote learning,� Brussels Superintendent Mark Martin said. “We need our kids to be in school. Instruction person-to-person is so much more valuable than our best efforts with remote learning.� Calhoun Superintendent Andrea Lee said the Calhoun district is moving in the same direction. “We know that having the kids here in-person is the best for them educationally,� Lee said. “We do feel like we can provide the safety of social distancing and the cleaning and such.� The guidance coming down from the Illinois State Board of Education is dense. There are 60-plus-pages worth of guidelines that school officials have worked to mull over and that community members can also peruse at www.isbe.net/ Documents/Part-3-TransitionPlanning-Phase-4.pdf.

Hardin clinic officially moves to village hall By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald It has been a long time coming. The Jersey Community Hospital clinic in Hardin has officially moved out of the flood plain, and is now seeing patients at their new location in space once used by the Village of Hardin staff. The Village of Hardin and the business tenants of the Village Hall started shifting and making room for the clinic over the course of the last few months once the clinic sought to lease out space in the building. Notably, the city moved its operations on the lower level of the building outside of a meeting room. And with everything ready, the clinic packed up and moved in, starting to see patients Monday, July 13. It was an exciting move for those at the clinic, who have had to deal with ever concerning river levels just outside of their doors when they were located on the riverfront. “We have been displaced multiple times over the last years because of floods,� Kevin Goss, JCH Vice President, said. “Obviously, we will still have the same accessibility options as far as if the bridge is out, but the clinic will not be flooding, so that is great.� Beyond this though, the facility is an overall improvement. “The entire facility is definitely a huge upgrade for us and our patients,� Goss said. Parking is substantially better, Goss said. Handicap accessibility has improved. And, returning patients can expect to see a bigger waiting area, and the size of exam rooms is larger. Also too, they will be right next to a helipad, which will be convenient for necessary patient transports. This new location also puts the clinic next to the Calhoun Nursing & Rehabilitation Center,

and the clinic supports a large majority of the center’s clients. Outside of the benefits afforded by the building and the location, residents can expect the same services that were found at the previous location. “It is our standard family practice clinic,� Goss said. “We are offering annual wellness visits, physicals.

Threat of bubonic plague is overblown Clinic
By BILL HOAGLAND In a front page story on several national news outlets on July 13, there was a report about a squirrel in Morrison, Colo., that has tested positive for bubonic plague. Then on July 15, another national news outlet reported that a teenage boy just died of bubonic plague after eating an infected marmot in China. The news outlets, in reporting these incidents, noted that over a span of two centuries the bubonic plague has been responsible for more than 300 million deaths. The ultimate point of these stories, I guess, was that there could be a significant death rate if the bubonic plague got out of hand again. In just reading these headlines, this bubonic plague stuff sounds scary, doesn’t it? With the COVID 19 pandemic going on now for seven months, it is easy to understand why we get real nervous when we hear about another potential pandemic, especially one percolating in China. And certainly the bubonic plague is nothing to sneeze at; it has earned its reputation as the
“black death” of humanity by causing 30 to 50 million deaths from 541 to 549, and 75 to 200 million deaths in the Fourteenth Century plus many more since then. Before we get too worked up over these headlines, though, let’s back up a bit. First of all, the bubonic plague, and its two related diseases, septicemic plague and pneumonic plague, are bacteria-based diseases, not viral diseases. This means that for the most part, they can be successfully treated with a variety of antibiotics so long as the disease is promptly diagnosed and treated. The symptoms include fever, headaches, chills, weakness and specifically with regard to the bubonic plague, swollen and painful lymph nodes. If untreated, death in about 50 percent of the cases occurs in about ten days after the symptoms first appear, so the symptoms should not be ignored, but the disease is no longer regarded as the “black death” that it once was. It may surprise you to learn that between 1900 and 2012, there have been over 1,000
(Continued from A1) from the clinic. “We will still be providing the same great care that we have had down there on water street for many years. Really, I think the difference we are going to see is the cases of the plague diagnosed in humans in the United States, and 80 percent of these cases involved bubonic plague. According to the CDC, there currently is an average of about seven cases of bubonic plague per year here and nearly all of these cases have occurred in several western states, such as Colorado, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico, where a limited number of rodents are also infected with the disease. The disease is generally transmitted to humans by fleas from rats, squirrels and other rodents although the disease can sometimes spread when an infected animal coughs on a human or when an infected animal, such as a squirrel, is eaten by a human. Despite the ongoing presence of this bacterium in the United States, the CDC does
not regard this situation as particularly troublesome. So the long and the short of it is that despite the hype, it is unlikely that we are on the verge of a bubonic plague epidemic. On the other hand, for the time being, I am probably going to pass on that recipe I have for squirrel cobbler. Note: I really do have a recipe for squirrel cobbler. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Bill Hoagland has practiced law in Alton for more than 50 years, but he has spent more than 70 years hunting, fishing and generally being in the great outdoors.

accessibility for our patients,” Goss said. And if there is anything that needs a deeper look, they are just 25 minutes away from Jersey Community Hospital with paperwork and other things ready go.
Theater (Continued from A1) was set to come in to bring a little pixie dust to the stage. Now, leaders with the Calhoun theater company are looking into using the flying equipment outside, but it remains to be seen if that is possible. “That’s up in the air at this time,” the theater company post on social media read. Should everything go according to plan, the musical will still not be a sure thing for fall, Sievers stressed. “If the state moves back into Phase 3 or our region back into Phase 3, we’re
off,” Sievers said. “We could not hold this.” Sievers noted the next musical to come from the Calhoun Entertainment Company would be Peter Pan no matter what, though. “It is still going to be our next musical, whenever that happens,” Sievers said. Still, it will be disappointing for those with the company, should the production not be possible this year. “If we can’t have it, we can’t have it,” he said. “I will be sad, you know, and frustrated just like all of the other schools that weren’t able to have their musicals, but life goes on.”
Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller
Live in the moment even when pressure is on It’s July, and I feel a sense of pressure. I’m thinking of food plots and practice shots. I’m thinking we are two weeks from August, and August is 30 days from opening bow season in Kentucky. I’m thinking I’m not ready for this. I’m thinking no one cares if I’m ready and time doesn’t stop or even slow down for anyone — no matter what the circumstances. I’m thinking how do others do it? I’m thinking I’m wasting time thinking. All my friends are feeling the same crunch. They are moving tree stands, setting out cameras, and scouting new locations. Acorns are beginning to form, and we should know very soon as to which trees will hold an abundance of these delicacies. That is one thing we still can’t determine
with great accuracy. Yes, we can fertilize those trees, but Mother Nature still calls the shots when it comes to temperatures and amounts of precipitation. Most trees run in two to three-year cycles, but again, frost and rain amounts can throw these successions into a free-for-all. So, we scout, watch and wait right up until the very last possible day – even until opening day, because it’s better to be late and sure than early and guessing. In this case, it’s better to be a day late to the party but know you’re at the right place than to be early to the neighborhood and unsure which house everyone is meeting. I wish this luxury was available for more important areas of my life. I mean don’t you wish you could look ahead at the results before taking an
action? What if you could see if your investment would be profitable before you invested? What if you could know beforehand the girl you’re dating would be the girl you married? What if you could see your future before you pursued that particular degree or occupation? If we could do this, would we always choose the sure thing over the unknown? Let me ask another question. Would you choose great success with great pain, or mediocrity with no pain? To be honest, I think each of us may choose differently, and we would most likely be influenced by our present situation. Again, the problem is too much thinking and not enough living and this happens when we forget to live in the present. Regret is fretting over the past.
Worry is fretting over the future. N e i ther will get my food plot ready nor give me a steady hand with my bow. They will only make me waste more time thinking. And you too. Live in the moment. It needs you right now. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Gary has three books that are compilations of the articles he has written for nearly 15 years.

“They’ve all passed away except for me.” Marie graduated from Brussels High School in 1938 and the following year, on Nov. 23, 1939, would marry Robert Held, whom she had known since childhood from living in Brussels. “After they married, they moved to Wood River, where dad worked at the Western Ammunition Factory through the war,” Ward said. Marie would work as a homemaker, which was no small feat given the fact that she raised four children. Eventually, the family would return to the hills of south Calhoun, continuing their life in Brussels, where Robert ran the gas station in town. By no means though was Marie going to be any less than indispensable to her family and community. “She was a member of the St. Mary’s Altar Society for 75 years, a lifetime member of the Brussels Women’s Club in the south end of the county, served on the library board and kept the books for the gas station,” Ward shared. Robert would pass away in 1987, but in their time together, he and Marie built a beautiful life, which is evidenced by the 10 grandchildren, 19 great grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren that descend from their love. Throughout her life, Marie always kept a big garden and was skilled with the needle. She also read, and continues to engage in activities as she is able, but if not for anything else, Marie is still of utmost importance to those who know her.
With 100 years of life in her, she is living proof that excellence and wisdom ripen with age. She credits her long life to hard work, faith, God’s blessings and being surrounded by loving family and friends. But, there’s more to Marie than just 100 years of life. The centenarian shares that in the course of her life, some of the most challenging lessons that God has prompted her to learn have been to save for the future and to be true to her faith, but her reflection of life doesn’t stop short of herself. Young people can often forget that their parents and grandparents were young at one time, too. In light of this, Marie has some words of advice for young folks. For young men, Marie says “Live a clean life, stay away from drugs and work hard.” Continuing with her advice, Marie advises young women to “respect yourself and dress modestly.” In reflecting on any regrets she might have had throughout her life, Held can recall one: “That I was a widow at such an early age.” In thinking about her nearly 50-year marriage, Held also has advice for those couples out there just getting their start. “Make sure you keep the family unit together. Make sure to have family dinners and time as a family, and to have good communication between you and your spouse.” In her litany of advice, Held had on more piece of give, this time for the citizens
of Calhoun county: “Have respect for yourself and your neighbor, and have a strong family life.” When Marie Mossman Held was born, a new home cost $5,000, the average family income was $3,000, a dozen eggs cost 47 cents and gas was 30 cents a gallon. Even today, she can recall the time in her young life when there was no electricity, indoor plumbing or the medical advancements that the world enjoys today. In her time, one may have seen some of these things elsewhere, but in Marie Held’s young world, they were rare to come by. “Basically, her life revolved around faith, family and community,” Ward said. When Held was coming of age, she and those from her time had no choice but to help family and neighbors survive. Community-centeredness wasn’t a bygone thought, but a way of life. Today, the citizens between the rivers get to glean from Marie Held, so the world can keep its Fitzgeralds and Gershwins. May we all glean something valuable from her rich and indispensable life experience.

(Continued from A1) ferent tune. Times were tough. The grown-ups knew it, the kids knew it, but you did what you had to do to get by. Contentment in your lot was a lesson learned young, and Marie was well aware of this, even if she didn’t fully realize it when she was growing up. Marie Mossman was only ten days old when her father died, leaving her mother to care for her and her two older siblings, Frank and Bernice. They would do a lot of moving around in those early years, but their mother would see to it that her children would receive an education. “When she was a little girl, the family did a lot of moving around,” Barb Ward, Marie’s daughter, said. “Eventually she’d live with the nuns in the convent so she could attend St. Mary’s school in Brussels.” Marie had to board up with the nuns because her mother and older siblings had moved to Beechville, where Mary ran the grocery store. Marie was still in touch with her family though, as the families of students who boarded in the convent had to supply their food for the week. “There were other students living there too, around four or five,” Marie said. “We had to sleep in the attic, where it was very cold.” After the course of two years, Marie’s family moved back to Brussels and she would rejoin her family at their new residence. Marie would go on to remain friends with those who shared the attic with her. “We all went to high school together,” Marie said.

School
(Continued from A1) leaders have been looking over these guidelines, so much so that it feels like the guidelines have been committed to memory, Martin said. The highlights include a lot of what people have been adjusting to in other facets of life, whether that be work or shopping. The general theme is the same: face-covering, social distancing, cleaning and screening. Regarding face coverings, mask are required most of the time while in the school buildings. Outside of time spent eating in the cafeteria and outside physical education classes where social distancing can be adhered to, students, faculty and staff need to be wearing a mask. The guidelines prohibit more than 50 individuals from gathering in one space, with an emphasis on social distancing when possible. In Brussels, this is very doable — at least in the classrooms. The size of the student body is especially beneficial in making in-person instruction safe and possible. “Our small size really helps us,” Martin said. Like with other public buildings in the state, individuals are asked to try to maintain a 6-foot social distance between those in the school. This should be feasible in the districts, with logistical issues centered on the bus and in areas like the cafeteria. Lee said this is an area that has been one of the more challenging for the school officials. “You only have so much physical space,” Lee said. She said it can be done, though. For Brussels, the buses will be especially challenging. The district is only working with one bus driver, and it appears that will be the case come time for school. Martin said the logistics of bus routes are something still being worked out at this time. For Calhoun, buses are also a concern; however, there is sentiment from many parents that they will not be having their child take the bus when school starts. Lee noted another challenge districts, including her own, are working out is cleaning. This fall, there will be a greater frequency of cleaning, which will require shifted schedules. In Calhoun, there is an interest to have early dismissal to allow time to clean and for teachers to keep up with the workload ahead of them. Lee indicated that they will have inperson instruction with an option to do remote learning for those parents that don’t feel comfortable or take issue with policies such as those for masks. With this option, Lee stressed families cannot flip-flop between the two. “At some point, there is going to have to be a commitment if they are coming back or no they are not,” she said. For the most part though, Lee indicated the district’s families largely plan on returning in-person, and are willing adhere to the

guidelines. In a district survey released a couple of weeks ago, 78 percent of parents that responded said they would send their kids and follow the rules. Among parents across the county, much of the conversation has centered on cleaning and masks. Lee said parents in the survey voiced a strong interest in how the schools would be cleaned, and the frequency at which they will be cleaned. Both Martin and Lee said there were definitely those with reservations toward the masks. Martin noted the masks will be a challenge this upcoming school year. “With the little kids, it will be more difficult, because the little kids, when they are uncomfortable, they take care of it,” Martin said. But, ultimately the reserved sentiments toward masks are moot at this point. “A lot of people have personal feelings about that, and it is their right to have that personal feeling, but we have to follow those guidelines,” Lee said. “I mean we just don’t have a choice. If that is what we have to do to get kids here so that we can teach them, and so they can be back in some type of normal school environment, then I am hoping people can see past their [personal feelings].” Those uninterested in following the rules simply will not be able to do in-person. “You don’t want them to come and then buck the system,” Lee said. “We have to enforce those rules.” Martin said the school district should and will do what is necessary to get kids back in school. “We are going to work really hard to meet those standards, because we do not want to be required to go into one of those other approaches [speaking of blended or remote learning],” Martin said. “Some of them are really not going to like it,” Martin said. “But without that focus, I would imagine a good number of parents would question whether it is safe to come back to school and they keep their kids out.” Even following these guidelines, though, there is still a possibility schools will have to go back to remote learning, entirely, a couple months in. Right now, district leaders are finalizing plans for in-person learning. And in the event those plans are quashed, local districts are already working out back up plans to ensure the transition is smooth. “When we put this plan together, we are going to have to make sure that we can work in a different phase if the state has us moving in a different phase.” Lee said. “…As you know, it is ever changing. It is a moving target.” Both district leaders were confident though that it can be done. They, like the rest of the county, will just have to wait and see what comes down from state officials next.

at Monday night’s meeting, but County Clerk Rita Hagen reports that there is still a need for more election judges, and anyone interested is encouraged to contact her office. Belleview, Crater-Carlin and Gilead precincts are in desperate need for election judges from both parties, and all precincts need alternates in the event a judge cannot carry out their duty. Also, it was reported at the meeting that the county census count is up to 41 percent. Commissioner Terry Woelfel stressed the importance of participating in the census, as it is imperative that the county receive the funding it needs to function. Local organizations in the county are assisting those who need help with filling out the census. Anyone needing assistance may seek it out through the Health Department, Illinois Valley, Farm Bureau or Senior Center.

WHAT'S GOING ON BETWEEN THE RIVERS
Q Kampsville News
by Diane Brangenberg Q 618-653-4520
The business in Kampsville continue to be busy, and that’s the way we like it. The water is down, and the boat ramp is accessible and open for use. The Mark Bowers Benefit was held Saturday evening, and it was very successful. Mark is a great guy, and we can always count on Calhoun people to come together when needed. Christina Pence’s grandson Brodie celebrated his fifth birthday on July 19. Danny Sievers turned 59 on Saturday and was treated to a honking vehicle parade
as he sat outside at the Cilla home. One of my favorite Kampsville kids that I got to enjoy watch grow up into a great guy Ben Lehr celebrated his birthday on July 19. Kelsey (Agney) Lathem was honored Sunday with a dinosaur themed baby shower hosted by her family. Baby Lathem received lots of wonderful gifts. With the current COVID restrictions, I am very sorry to report we will be unable to have our Kampsville Fireworks Celebration. The social distancing restrictions
would make it impossible to have the festival and the festivities, fish stand and donations are what funds the fireworks. We would also run the risk of our insurance not being covered because of the restrictions. This decision wasn’t made lightly and the committee appreciates your understanding. We hope to be back to normal next August. Continued prayers for Cathy Taul, Cindy Smith, Joe Gress, Darren Kress, Eileen Gardner, Jim Hill, Bill Schumann, Kurt Roth, Linda Herkert and Sami Angelo.

Sharon McLeod, her daughter Kelly Brewer and her four sons all of Roundup, Mont., spent the past week with their mother, grandmother and great grandmother, Marie Held. They were her to help Marie celebrate her 100th Birthday. Sounds like they had a great week together. After Sharon, Kelly and boys left on Sunday morning headed to Montana Barb Ward stayed on for a few days to help her mom.

Many thanks to Vera Droege for driving me down and back, especially since it was her birthday that day. Enroute home, I treated her to birthday lunch. Many thanks Vera — I really appreciated it. In midAugust, I will have the other eye done. Caleb Carnes of Edwardsville spent the week with grandparents Francis and Liz Toppmeyer. On Thursday, he came over and helped me with meals, watering the garden and putting drops in my eye, etc. Sounds like he helped grandma clean house while he was here. He is really a good helper, I hated to see him return home on Friday. Thanks again Caleb for all your help. On Saturday evening, my great granddaughter, Adelaide “Addy” Keppler, celebrated her fourth birthday at the bowling alley in O’Fallon, Mo., and her brother Noah celebrated his eighth birthday. The event was hosted by his mother Ashley Kirn.

OBITUARY DORIS M. BECKER
25 Years Ago July 26, 1995 Students in Brussels Community Unit School District #42 will be faced with stiffer penalties for misconduct this coming school year than in years past. The board looked over the new student handbook at its regular meeting on July 18. The new handbook, a consolidated version for both the junior high and high school students, was crafted by a committee consisting of three teachers, two parents and two board members. The committee put a lot of emphasis and time in the discipline section of the new handbook. The policy states, “A disciplinary record is maintained on all students referred to the principal’s office.” District #42 will also have a new principal enforcing the rules, James Roderick, who is from the Chicago area. Some of the changes from the former handbook include: electronic devices will be forbidden on campus; students must be off school property after 3:30 p.. unless they have permission; and if a student is under suspension, he/she will not practice any sport. For repeat offenders, detentions and in-school suspensions (alternative education) will be assigned on Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. “We never had many demerits until last year,” Superintendent Michael Siemer said. “If they don’t come to the alternative education, then it will be out of school suspensions,” he added.
50 Years Ago July 23, 1970 At the Monday night meeting of the Lewis-Clark Community College Board of Trustees, the plan for a traffic study survey as put forth by Rep. J. Corbett and other legislators at a previous meeting was accepted by the college trustees, and the firm of Keeney and Stoltz of Godfrey was offered such a contract for a study. The Lewis-Clark Junior College is already thinking of the traffic and parking problems which will occur when the new college blooms in a few years to an enrollment of 7500 students or more. At their special luncheon meeting last week, Rep. Jerry Corbett, Sen. Merrill Ottwein, Reps. Kennedy, Harpstrite, Vandalabene, Elmo McLain and Sen. Wm. Lyons discussed these problems with the board of trustees. Rep. Corbett told the board that he felt a feasibility survey should be made as soon as possible, such as the one
made by the firm which did the study on the Brussels Bridge proposal. Rep. Corbett has been a member of the Highway Study Commission of Illinois for several years and has much experience in highway needs and traffic problems. Corbett said that this study then could be presented to the State Highway Department for consideration and that this procedure would bring the quickest and most satisfactory results toward solving the traffic problem which will be incurred on Route 67 at the entrance of the College. A minimum of 2,000 to 3,000 cars will converge on the Lewis-Clark campus when it really gets into operation a few years hence, and the traffic at Rt. 67 and the entrance will create an enormous problem, Corbett told the board. With the completion of the Beltline highway around Alton, traffic will increase as a whole in the area, with Lewis-Clark College students adding to the traffic and parking problem in the area. Parking space at the college is available on the 160 acres of land which went with the purchase by the Board of Monticello College, but at present time there is room for parking 160 cars in the Hathaway Hall lot, and smaller lots already available, as well as one across the highway around the college church. Paul Hanks, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, told the group that they are anxious to get started immediately on plans to take car of these problems of traffic and parking and that this was the reason for calling the Legislators to the luncheon meeting so that they could discuss them and begin proper planning in time. District 8 Traffic Engineer Harold Ruffner told the group that the new college would not affect traffic greatly at this time, but that eventually a six-lane highway will be necessary in the area. 75 Years Ago July 26, 1945 Aloys C. Schleeper, formerly of Hardin, who is in the Navy, assisted in rescuing a man from drowning near his base at Farragut Idaho Naval Hospital. An article in the local paper says: Carl Cunningham, 25, of Spokane, Wash. said to be an inspector for the Washington State Liquor Department, was reported resting at the Lake City General Hospital after a narrow escape from drowning in Lake Coeur d’Alene early last evening. Cunningham was a member of a swimming party and sank in about
Doris M. Becker, 92, of East Alton, passed away on Sunday, July 12, 2020 at Christian NE. Doris was born May 13, 1928 in Grafton, Ill., the daughter of Theodore and Goldie (Buskirk) Richey. She married Sylvester Joseph Becker on Oct. 16, 1948 in Crossville, Ill. He preceded her in death on May 24, 1999. She was a member at the Eastern Star and enjoyed traveling with her husband. Doris is survived by her niece; Annett (Roger) Becker.
40 feet of water in front of the bathhouse. The man was in the water about five minutes before being brought to shore where three sailors administered artificial respiration until city firemen arrived with the inhalator. He was revived in about 35 minutes and taken to the hospital in an ambulance. Sailors assisting the man were Aloys C. Schleeper, Robert J. Stonecepher and D.R. Parks, all seamen second class and all connected with the Hospital Corps school at the Farragut naval hospital. Seaman Schleeper’s wife is living in Jerseyville, and he is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Schleeper, also of Jerseyville, formerly of south of Hardin.
She was preceded in death by her parents and husband, Sylvester. Visitation will be on Wednesday, July 15, 2020 from 10 a.m. until the time of service at 11 a.m. and Elias, Kallal and Schaaf Funeral Home in Bethalto. Burial will follow at Rose Lawn Memory Gardens in Bethalto, Illinois. Donations can be made to Abundant Life Church in Alton, Ill..

What’s Happening
ONGOING Veterans info request: Since the publication of the 2011 version of the Calhoun County Historical Society cemetery book much additional data has been compiled in the constant update process. A new section titled “Calhoun Veterans Interred Abroad” will be included in their honor and memory in the next edition.
100 Years Ago July 22, 1920 Some of our citizens spent Sunday at Bartholomew’s Beach at Kampsville and they report several hundred people in the bathing pool having a merry time. An airplane was in operation at that place, carrying passengers from the east side of the river over the pool, charging a fee of $1.00 per minute. This airplane will be on the job next Sunday at the beach. This beach is becoming quite popular and hundreds of people visit the place daily, three to enjoy themselves in the cool refreshing waters of the Illinois river. Why is it that Hardin can’t wake up to a like recreation? Our Kampsville correspondent has the following to say concerning the airplane visit to their town: “Spectators were certainly fascinated Sunday afternoon when an airplane owned by the Springfield Aerial Service flew over our town. The fact that they were to take passengers created intense excitement among a few of our citizens. The young and handsome pilots ‘Bill’ Bardens and Chester Ingels, surely encouraged at least one of our young ladies. The first fair passenger was Miss Lucille Ritter. ‘No, it isn’t a funny feeling,’ said Lucille after she had made the trip. ‘It’s a wonderful sensation, I only wish it had lasted longer.’ The height attained while Miss Ritter accompanied the pilot was 2400 feet. Other delighted flyers were Murril Lumley, Herman Camerer, Harley Goings, Mr. Bess and one other whose name we failed to obtain. Murril Lumley and Harley Goings were brave enough to do the ‘loop’ and ‘tail spin’ and other blood curdling stunts. The pilot informed one of our citizens that they would make the trip to Kampsille again the first of August.”
The Society would appreciate receiving names, birth and death dates and military service information for family members of others. Please submit information with name, address and phone number to the Society at P.O Box 46 Hardin, IL. 62047. Contact Society president Emerson Retzer at 618-535 4945 as well as Society board members.

L&C moves fall sports to spring semester Following a July 13 vote by its Board of Regents, the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) will move most Fall 2020 athletics to the Spring 2021 semester. “Our greatest focus is and always has been providing the best opportunities for our student athletes,” NJCAA President and CEO Christopher Park said. “Through a unified effort from our Presidential Advisory Council, the Board of Regents and leadership staff, our most recent plan of action provides a path that keeps our student athletes competing at the highest level with proper safety measures in place.” For member school Lewis and Clark Community College, which fields three of the
league’s fall sports (men’s and women’s soccer, along with court volleyball), the change will limit teams to 60 consecutive dates on which fall practices can be held between Aug. 15 and Nov. 15. Soccer teams will be allowed two fall scrimmage games (four total) and court volleyball will be allowed three fall scrimmages (five total). L&C Athletic Director Doug Stotler believes the delay will allow time to educate student athletes and coaches on how to protect themselves. “This plan put forth by the NJCAA clears a path for all of our L&C sports to compete in the spring, provided the virus can be managed safely within our college
community,” he said. “There is still much work to be done internally within the athletics department and at L&C to conform with the protocols that the medical community recommends.” The move will delay the start of winter sports, including Trailblazers men’s and women’s basketball, which usually begin in November, to January 2021, with most playoff games moving from March to April. Soccer teams can begin spring practices on March 15, with competition beginning on April 2. The seasons will have a maximum of 14 games, with all region and district games to be completed May 24. Men’s and women’s soccer championships will begin June 2.
Court volleyball will begin spring practices Jan. 11, with competition beginning on Jan. 29. The season will have a maximum of 21 competition dates, with all season, region and district games completed by April 11. Championships will be held April 15-17. L&C baseball, softball, men’s and women’s tennis and men’s golf, which are traditional spring sports, will remain intact with a few minor adjustments at this time.

S
ocrates’ famous remark that the unexamined life is not worth living is probably an overstatement, but there is certainly a grain of truth in the idea that we should examine our lives, and by this Socrates really meant a moral examination. That is, do our words match up with our deeds? Have we sinned by breaking any of the ten commandments or have we perhaps sinned by omission, by failing to do something we should do? A thorough self-examination might also require us to really question our beliefs about right and wrong. Are there things which we take for granted as permissible which in reality are not. This is where it can be helpful to have a spiritual advisor, someone who can tell us the things which we sometimes refuse to see about ourselves. Sometimes our intuition about
something makes it appear selfevident and too obvious to question when in fact this is just a blatant prejudice. Finally, we can be fooled by our feelings. Feelings can be so strong that they appear to us as facts. The feeling of jealousy can seem to prove that your beloved was unfaithful, just as the feeling of anger seems to validate the fact that you were wronged. A conscientious self-examination should be a regular part of our spiritual journey. – Christopher Simon

Brilliant Barryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s The story of Calhoun Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pioneer family By MEAGAN MCGLASSON Calhoun News-Herald July 31 marks what would be the 179th birthday of Dr. Peter Carthage Barry, the patriarch of a remarkable Calhoun County family. On July 31, 1841, Barry was born in County Waterford, Ireland. He spent much of his youth on education, enrolling in the University of Louvain, Belgium in 1869. He left university shortly thereafter, to serve under Pope Pius IX in 1860 and was commissioned a Second Lieutenant. Two years later, Barry found himself in St. Louis studying medicine and decided to move his practice up the river to Peoria. While traveling via steamboat, he encountered some Calhoun County men who persuaded Barry to change his plans and establish himself in Hardin. A few years later, in 1868, he married Miss Jersey Delong Smith, a descendent of the first governor of New York, Dewitt Clinton. Barry served as the first editor of the Calhoun Herald in 1872. In 1884, he was elected to the House of Representatives and enjoyed enormous popularity as representative of the 36th senatorial district. Yet, Barry was not the only remarkable member of his family. He and his wife, Jersey, had six children, four of which grew into adulthood, including Zita Agnes and Edward Standish. Zita Agnes (Barry) Schrieber would go on to become president of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Council of Defense in Calhoun County.â&#x20AC;? The organization, which was headquartered in the Bank of Calhoun County ended in 1924, but Schrieber and the other ladies put the money in a Time Deposit. By the time the money was withdrawn in 1933, the women had amassed $1,010.12, worth nearly $20,000 today, which they donated to Calhoun Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s American Legion post. Barry and Jerseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son, Edward Standish Barry, would later have a son of his own, Edward Elmer, who rivaled his grandfatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worldly ways. Edward, upon completing schooling in the 1930s, designed and constructed a sailboat with some of his friends and set off to sail the world via the Mississippi River. The boys traveled south to New Orleans before setting off across the Gulf to Key West, followed by Miami and then eventually Cuba. The young men explored CaibariĂŠn, otherwise known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Li Villa Blancaâ&#x20AC;? or the White Town for its white sandy
beaches, and Baracoa, the oldest Spanish settlement in Cuba. The young men finished their southern journey in Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic. Here, Barry and his compatriots abandoned their boat and headed inland to mine the Cordillera Mountains for gold and platinum. By the 1940s, Edward Barry had returned to the States and became active in the Coast Guard. During World War II, he served as a ship delivery captain sailing between St. Louis and New Orleans. During his service, Edward, while docking his ship during a snowstorm in Arkansas, broke his neck ending his military career. A broken neck would not slow down Edward Barry, however; and he returned to Grafton to run the Welcome Inn Restaurant with his parents. Grafton was evidently too quiet for Mr. Barryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s liking and he taught himself to fly, earned a personal pilotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license and then endeavored to teach others the skill. While in Grafton, Edward met his future wife, Helen A. Schleeper, and the couple moved to the Florida Keys. Finding teaching pilots to his liking, Edward decided to continue his career as a guide, but this time to tourists staying at the coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Barry Beach Fishing Resort. When he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t acting as a world renowned bone fishing guide, Barry took up sports writing for the Miami Herald and Key West Citizen. Edward and Jersey remained in Key West into middle age, splitting time between Hardin and the Keys before moving out to Battle Mountain, Nev. In his â&#x20AC;&#x153;retirement,â&#x20AC;? Edward founded the Gem Center and purchased mines across the region. He then moved the Gem Center to Arizona and later Texas. There the family sold the highly successful business when Barryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s neck injury began to bother him. In addition to his amazing travels, Edward Barry was well known for his contributions to any community in which he resided. He was a Shriner in Illinois, Arizona and Texas, a member of the Scottish Rite Bodies and politically active in Veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; groups and The Capitol Hill Club. Upon his death, Mr. Barry counted President George Bush Sr., Sen. Barry Goldwater, Congressman Paul Findley and President Gerald Ford among his personal friends. July 25 will mark 44 years since Edward E. Barryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death and the loss of one of Calhoun Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more remarkable residents.

Hardin Village still looking into fixing Innmanville Bridge By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald The Village of Hardin is still pursuing repairing, or more likely replacing, the Innmanville Bridge, also known as the Vineyard Street Bridge. This bridge has been closed and has sat in disrepair for a number of years. Those in the small neighborhood adjacent to the bridge have had to use other outlets, like that of Myrtle Lane, for the time being. And, it appears village leaders are still determined to see a repair or replacement of the bridge. The consideration was addressed at a recent Hardin Village meeting. Danielle Hurley, Hardin Village Clerk, confirmed the village is working out how they might fund the project. Earlier this year, Hardin leaders were brainstorming projects they could fund using money garnered from the ending Revolving Loan program. As previously reported, the village held funds as part of that program, and the program is ending. These funds were then required to be returned to the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO). However, that money could still be used by the village. An entity can apply to have those funds returned as a grant for up to two public infrastructure, housing rehabilitation or economic development projects. One requirement for an infrastructure project is that it corrects a serious safety issue that is a threat to the health and welfare of the community. The village sought to tackle the bridge, along with the repair of Poor Hollow Farm Road, which is being worked on in tandem with the county. But, it was determined at the time that grant funds would not cover the expenses of both projects.
Therefore, village leaders decided, at the time, to focus the second project on sidewalk repair instead of the bridge and to look at other avenues for those living in that area. That has since changed. The option to drive around Innmanville and go out in a different direction is not going to pan out, and Hardin leaders voted to add the Innmanville Bridge project to the villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s DCEO grant application. Hurley noted there was discussion regarding using motor fuel tax money to help in funding the project. A public hearing regarding this project will take place July 29. Also in the Hardin meeting, village leaders went over the feasibility of establishing a tax increment financing (TIF) district in the village. Municipalities use TIF districts typically to divert future property tax revenue increases from a defined area toward an economic development project or public improvement project in the community â&#x20AC;&#x201D; often related to the area where a TIF district is established. Village Attorney Bill Strang said they are currently in the process of nail-

ing down whether a district would be feasible in Hardin. He said the idea has been under discussion for a couple years among village leaders. Now, leaders are getting closer to finding out if it will become a reality. Strang said the concern among village leaders is the business in the town. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re more concerned about keeping their businesses, the few businesses they have, and trying to keep the community infrastructure up,â&#x20AC;? Strang said. Should it be viable, Strang sees the establishment of a TIF district as plausible before the end of the year. In the same vein, the village is also looking into whether it is feasible to sell the villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water system. Currently, the villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water systems are aged and poor, and work to repair the systems would cost upwards of $10 million, according to Hardin Mayor Dave Hurley in the meeting. Also in the meeting, council members OKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d use of Johnson Tree Service to remove a tree that had become a public nuisance. Danielle Hurley said the tree had died and hung over the street. The cost for the work was $900.
