Joint effort 25 years ago led to shelter Cardboard City fundraising goal: $25,000

The jump-start for a joint effort to set up a local emergency shelter can be traced back to when a mother and two children stood in front of Wilmington City Council and she said she was homeless, a shelter founder said.

Linda Eichelberger, former mayor’s assistant and an instrumental person in opening the shelter, recently reflected on the early days as the Clinton County Homeless Shelter marks its 25th year at the Cardboard City event Saturday.

A place for the woman and her children to stay was found, and the city’s part in establishing a shelter started that night, said Eichelberger. But opening the shelter didn’t occur overnight.

“It probably took two, three

years of trying to find a fit. We were competing with all the big cities [for grant funds],” Eichelberger said.

One thing she believes helped the local cause was pointing out that, by being a small rural area, emergency shelter services here could be different in a good way.

Instead of “shipping people in and out overnight,” a smalltown shelter could keep them up to 30 days and begin to address some of the circumstances contributing to their homelessness, she said.

An effort involving the city, churches and other concerned citizens resulted in a $30,000 grant approval to be matched with local funds, according to a paper on the early history

of the shelter by Donald K. Mertz, vice president of the original temporary board.

An early challenge in the work to organize a shelter, said Eichelberger, was the fact the local homeless were not visible.

“It was hard for people to believe that Wilmington needed a homeless shelter,” she said. Unless you were a police officer on night patrol you were unlikely to have seen the problem, added Eichelberger.

Clinton County Homeless Shelter Executive Director Denise Stryker said that early on a lot of the shelter residents were “single moms with children.”

In her position, she said she sees people who are very disSee SHELTER | A6

Built in 1975, this concrete Port William Bridge was partially replaed in 2002, then completely replaced in 2013.

The Port William Bridge, as it currently stands, was opened to the public Monday.

Port William Bridge reopens

By ANDREA L. CHAFFIN achaffin@civitasmedia.com Port William’s scenic landscape was returned Monday when the village’s signature bridge reopened for traffic after three months of closure.

The Clinton County Engineer ’s Office replaced the bridge, located on State Route 134/Main Street, after discovering it had succumbed to rust and moisture issues, said Jeff Linkous, engineer.

The bridge, which overlooks the village’s dam and mill, closed for work June 17.

The new bridge is made from pre-stressed concrete and has a price tag of $539,984. The contractor was John Jurgenson. Federal funding paid for 80 percent of the project, with 20 percent coming from Ohio Public Works Commission.

Residents will be happy to have the road reopened, said Mayor Michelle Morrison, following a ribboncutting ceremony. The eight-mile detour from Sabina Road to Starbuck Road made traveling to Wilmington a bit frustrating, she said.

“I think I can speak for all residents and say they’re tickled it’s open,” she said.

Morrison complimented the design of the bridge, specifically its rounded concrete railings.

“It’s simple, but really pleasing, ” she said. “It adds a nice dressing.”

For Maynard Beam, 80, it’s the third bridge he has seen in the village. He remembers the first documented bridge — made from metal trusses and estimated to cost between $10,000 to $12,000. It was built in the early 1900s and

torn down in 1975 when the concrete bridge was built.

Beam’s family operates the grain facility adjacent to the bridge, and he has lived on the property since 1933 — with the exception of a few years spent in Germany.

As a child, Beam recalls running across the bridge with a “gang of boys” and his brothers into town, where a slew of businesses kept them busy.

“We would climb the top of the bridge and try to run up the slope,” See BRIDGE | A6

State Sen. Bob Peterson (R-Sabina) on Monday addressed the Wilmington Noon Rotary Club, talking about job creation in Ohio.

“We will not lose jobs to Michigan, Illinois or Kentucky,” said Peterson.

“We do lose jobs to Indiana. They have lower taxes.

They are more competitive.

Indiana is kicking our butt.”

Peterson said he considers himself to be Sen. Bob an advocate for lower taxes land less bureaucracy, and the primary Peterson barriers that keep Ohio from attracting business are tax policy, regulatory environment and workman’s compensation.

“I am pleased to serve with a governor that is a dynamic driver of change,” he said, referring to Gov. John R. Kasich (R).

Peterson said much progress has been made, but there is still much to be done.

One of the biggest challenges for Petersen as a senator is getting 50 constituents to agree with your idea or proposal, he said. As a former commissioner for Fayette County, he said, “I only needed one more to agree with me.”

Peterson joined the Ohio Senate in 2012 and represents the 17th Ohio Senate District, which includes Clinton County.

“I love representing Clinton County,” he said.

“My farm borders Clinton and Fayette counties.”

Your fixed income portfolio in a rising interest rate environment

T

he risk of safety – Your Fixed Income Portfolio in a Rising Interest Rate Environment.

A golfer’s short irons are typically their “safe” clubs — those that they turn to when they are riskaverse on a certain shot and absolutely have to keep the ball in play and/or when they are close to the green and trying to finish off the hole. Using a short iron sacrifices distance for safety.

Applying this concept in a different context, there are many similarities between a golfer’s short irons and the fixed income component of an investor’s portfolio.

An investor commonly turns to fixed income when they are risk-averse and principal protection is of primary importance, and/or when they are closing in on retirement and willing to sacrifice potential return for a more stable income stream. While fixed income is traditionally thought of as a very safe investment, in today’s current interest rate environment, the risk of that safety should be carefully evaluated.

Historically record-low interest rates, a stabilizing national economy and fears that the Federal Reserve will begin “tapering” its $85 billion a month asset purchases have all been fueling a recent rise in interest rates.

As a result, investors who have his-

torically relied heavily on fixed income below market rate. Thus, the price funds to provide a stable income stream falls. while also focusing on principal protecWhile the best hedge against losses tion are, for the first time in years, over the long term is a diversified portbeginning to see losses on their month- folio invested across various assets and ly statements.

exposure to adverse interest rate movements.

While the actual calculation of duration is rather complex, the data point is commonly provided with the general information one receives when researching fixed income investments.

As referenced earlier, over the long term, the best hedge against rising interest rates is a diversified portfolio.

Interest rates typically rise when the economy is growing and expected to continue to perform well — a positive sign for stocks.

As such, traditionally a good way to hedge the price declines of fixed income is to have an equity exposure that would appreciate in value helping to offset such losses.

The amount of equity exposure one should have depends largely on a variety of factors such as life stage, risk tolerance and total investable assets (among others), but having some exposure to equities, especially in today’s environment, can greatly help reduce value fluctuations in your portfolio.

Stocks rally after Summers exits Fed race (AP) Wall Street was happy to see Larry Summers go.

Stocks rose on Monday after Summers, who had been the leading candidate to replace Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke, withdrew his name from consideration.

Summers, a former Treasury secretary, was viewed as being more likely to rein in the government’s massive stimulus program, which has kept interest rates low and boosted corporate profits.

Stocks were also helped by news that U.S. factory output rose 0.7 percent in August, the most in eight months.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 118.72 points, or 0.8 percent, to close at 15,494.78.

The Standard & Poor’s (NYSE:MHP) 500 index rose 9.61 points, or 0.6 percent, to 1,697.60. The Nasdaq composite fell 4.34 points, a fraction of a percent, to 3,717.85, pulled down by a loss in Apple.

Nine of 10 sectors in the S&P 500 rose, led by industrial stocks.

Only technology stocks declined.

At its highest point in late morning trading, the S&P 500 was within five points of its previous record close of 1,709.67, set on Aug. 2.

That worried Brad McMillan, chief investment officer for Commonwealth Financial.

McMillan said there are risks that investors don’t seem to be accounting for in the prices they’re paying. The Syria situation might not be resolved as easily as some are assuming. Europe’s debt crisis isn’t over. Investors seem to believe corporate profits will keep growing as fast as they have been, even though cheap debt refinancing has driven much of that growth. And there’s another debate upcoming in Washington about the U.S. debt ceiling. “The last time we had a real problem with it, it did result in a signif-

icant market correction,” McMillan said.

Linda Duessel, market strategist at Federated Investors (NYSE:FII) in Pittsburgh, said it’s just as likely that some of those issues will turn out in ways that don’t hurt stocks. And even if one of those issues causes stocks to decline, “that could be the correction that any us of who have cash on the sidelines are waiting for,” she said.

The Fed has been buying $85 billion per month in bonds, which has had the effect of keeping interest rates low and reduced borrowing expenses for companies.

The Fed has been saying for months that it will slow that stimulus once there’s a better outlook for jobs. The question has been how soon, and how much. The consensus with Summers was, sooner, and more. That’s why stocks rose once investors found out he won’t be the next Fed chief.

The president is expected to nominate

Ben Bernanke’s successor as early as this month.

The new front-runner is Janet Yellen, the Fed’s vice chair.

The Fed is expected to take its first step toward reducing that stimulus in a two-day policy meeting that ends Wednesday.

Many economists think it will trim $10 billion from its monthly bond purchases.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note declined more than a tenth of a percent earlier in the day, but regained most of that, and finished at 2.87 percent, down from 2.88 percent late Friday. The dollar fell against the yen and the euro.

Among companies making big moves: — Homebuilders rose as investors were encouraged by a decline in long-term interest rates.

The biggest gainer in percentage terms was PulteGroup, up 62 cents, or 3.8 percent, to $17.14.

— Boise rose $2.60, or 26 percent, to $12.56 after news that Packaging

Corp. of America (NYSE:PKG) is buying it for $1.27 billion.

Packaging Corp. rose $5.88, or almost 11 percent, to $60.43.

— Apple continued to slide, down $14.78, or 3.2 percent, to $450.10.

Apple has fallen 11 percent since announcing its new iPhone lineup last week. Investors believe the new phones won’t bring in as much overseas revenue as they had previously hoped.

Trading in stock options was halted for less than an hour Monday afternoon because of a problem with their pricereporting system.

Summers’ withdrawal helped stocks overseas, too. The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was up 0.6 percent.

Germany’s DAX rose 1.2 percent, and the CAC-40 in France was 0.9 percent higher.

Oil traders were monitoring Syria developments. The recent diplomatic drive, which has caused the prospect of a

U.S.-led attack on Syria to dissipate, has pushed oil prices lower. The benchmark New York price of crude fell $1.62 to $106.59 a barrel.

An adventure in yard selling

Immigrants could fill voids in rural Nebraska

W

e know that immigrants are filling many of the manual labor jobs that Americans don’t want to fill. We also know that some highly skilled immigrants are filling positions that require advanced knowledge of math, science and engineering.

Those are two good economic reasons for U.S. lawmakers to proceed with immigration reform. Here is another.

New research by a Duke University professor shows that immigrants are raising the value of housing stocks in some U.S. communities. The findings by Professor Jacob Vigdor, based on extensive study of census data, certainly are of interest to urban Americans, where the Great Recession left scores of vacant homes as owners walked away from upside down mortgages…

Vigdor’s study concludes that an influx of immigrants can resurrect such urban neighborhoods, but could the same effect not be expected in Nebraska, where rural population decline has become a serious concern?

If we believe that immigrants could help reinvigorate rural Nebraska, the key is allowing them a path to citizenship so they can settle down. Until Congress resolves the legality issue, undocumented immigrants will continue to live in the shadows. They’ll hesitate to become permanent residents because their illegal status poses the threat of deportation.

That’s why allowing a path to citizenship makes sense…

According to Vigdor, naturalized immigrants are more productive employees. With experience, they win promotions and contribute more to their companies’ success. As a result, they out-earn undocumented immigrants by 16 percent.

Think of the implications in rural Nebraska, where reform could open the door for new residents to reverse the population decline and provide employers a stable workforce that reinvigorates main streets as these new residents put down roots. The new home owners would patronize grocery stores, appliance dealerships and purchase other goods and services.

Evidence favoring immigration reform continues to grow, yet too many lawmakers in Washington — including most of Nebraska’s delegation — are dragging their feet. Why? — Kearney Hub (Neb.)

NEWS JOURNAL — Serving Clinton County, Ohio

Auctions are fun. I don’t get to go to too many auctions, but the ones I’ve attended have always been fun.

Bargains and treasures are waiting within every box-full of goodies that is going for just one low, low price. At least, that has been my hope every time I’ve purchased a box-full of books, knickknacks, pictures or just strange, fun-looking miscellaneous … stuff.

Auctioneers are fun.

Ever auctioneer I’ve known has been equal parts salesman, entertainer and showman. It’s not good enough to take bids at lightening-fast speed and talk that special auction-speak that requires the rapid-fire, staccato, million-milean-hour speaking ability, they also have to make bidders laugh, smile and be happy about parting with their money.

The reason I don’t go to many auctions is because I sometimes get caught up in the moment. My hand snaps up or my head bobs to signal I’m placing a bid.

The next thing I know I’m walking to my car carrying a box full of … who knows what; books, gadgets, do-dads any number of things that up to the moment that I bought them I could have cared less about, but in the heat of the bidding moment, I suddenly realized that I needed to own that stuff. It’s fun.

Years ago, I stopped

by an auction barn near Germantown. Walking through the barn and examining the various pieces of furniture and boxes of treasures, I found a very old, small copy of Samuel Coleridge’s epic poem “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.” It was nestled near the bottom of a box full of other books and magazines. It was printed on extremely thin, onion-skin paper and was about the size of a little New Testament bible. I wanted it.

I waited as the auctioneer made his way around the auction barn. From the direction he was headed, it should have been about 20-30 minutes before the Coleridge classic was sold. I figured I had time for a hotdog and soda, so I headed to the food trailer for a quick bite to eat. Five minutes later, I returned to find my box had just sold. Apparently, after I headed toward the hotdog stand, the auctioneer changed directions and sold my box.

I found the man who bought the box and asked if he would be interested in selling any of the books or magazines.

“Sure.” He said. “You can buy anything in this box for a buck, except for ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.’ That’s the only one I really wanted.”

I gave up on auctions for a long time after that.

Working toward American energy independence T his week, the United States Senate began to debate a bill I introduced called the Energy Savings and Industrial Competitiveness Act. This bill — the first major piece of energy legislation to come to the Senate floor in six years — is the next step in the all-of-the-above energy strategy we need to achieve energy independence.

We were reminded again over the past few

weeks why that energy independence is so important. The Middle East, where much of our energy comes from, is often a volatile and unstable region. Since our economy depends on cheap, reliable sources of energy, disruptions in places like Syria have consequences far beyond their borders, often leading directly to an increase in the price of oil, with effects throughout markets of every kind.

Instead, we should find ways to produce more energy here at home, while practicing good stewardship of the resources we have. For instance, I have been a vocal proponent of domestic production.

Technology has opened new areas to exploration, including the Marcellus and Utica Shale in Northeast and Eastern Ohio, which we should support. And I have advocated for commonsense, environmentally sound projects like the Keystone XL Pipeline.

But I also believe there is room to improve in the area of energy efficiency.

Volatile younger sister must reach out for help on her own DEAR ABBY: My younger sister, “Tanya,” is 22 and a single mother.

Her son is 2. She’s pregnant again, and this time her baby will be a girl.

My sister is very dramatic and emotional. She gets angry easily and has a short fuse. She’s great with her son, except he picks up on her drama and is somewhat dramatic himself. My worry is that girls are more likely to imitate that behavior, and I’m concerned my niece will be just like her mother. Although Tanya has a good heart, her emotional issues have caused her to have horrible relationships with men, as our mother did.

When I suggested to

my sister that she talk will be receptive, but to someone about her also accept that it may anger, she flipped never happen. Not out on me.

I hate to see you give yourself a pejorative label. It’s time to have yourself evaluated because it is possible you suffer from attention deficit disorder — and if you do, there is help for it. If that’s not the case, then start small, give yourself a goal you CAN accomplish and don’t stop until you have reached it. It doesn’t have to be anything complicated, but see it through. Then give yourself another, more difficult assignment and finish it.

Perseverance is a skill that can be learned.

Each time you succeed, you will reinforce the idea that you CAN do it.

The more you do this, the better you will feel about yourself, and it will be reflected in your work and social relationships.

DEAR ABBY: I am a married woman with several single friends. They are always eager to do things with me, but married life is a lot different than being single. I’d love to connect these friends, who don’t know each other. I realize making friends can be hard, and I’d love to help them in that way.

What would be the best way to do this? I don’t have a lot of time to spend inviting everyone together and having them get to know each other.

I’d like to do a quick introduction, then let them go have fun doing “single people” things. Is this possible? — UNIFIER IN PITTSBURGH DEAR UNIFIER: Absolutely. Call or email your friends and tell them there are people you want them to meet because you think they’d enjoy each other.

Then arrange a group lunch at a convenient location and introduce them. After that, if the chemistry is right, they’ll become friendly.

Operation Christmas Child concert Sept. 19 The Pfeifers, a wellknown gospel quartet from Washington C.H., will headline a benefit concert for Operation Christmas Child (OCC), a project of Samaritan’s Purse, on Thursday, Sept. 19 at 7 p.m. at the Sardinia Church of Christ.

The concert is being hosted by the South Central Ohio Area Team and the Church of Christ in Sardinia. A love offering will be taken.

The Pfeifers have a family tradition of a gospel music ministry, the third generation sharing their faith and the message of the gospel,” said Helen Hiestand, OCC South Central Ohio area coordinator, who is from Hillsboro.

“They travel the country in excess of 150 days each year, lifting their faith in churches, concert halls, auditoriums and arenas. Their desire is

always to show compassion to others, and continually to reach out to the lost.”

The South Central Ohio Area Team is a core of volunteers from Highland, Adams, Brown, Clinton and Fayette counties working year round to further the project.

Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse (http://www.samaritanspurse.org).

Promotional material and shoe boxes will be available at the event.

For more information on the event or the Shoe Box Ministry project, contact Ed or Helen Hiestand at 937393-2790.

Operation Christmas Child, a project of international Christian relief and evangelism organization Samaritan’s Purse, is the world’s largest Christmas project of its kind. Since 1993, the project has hand-

delivered more than 100 million shoe box gifts to needy children in more than 130 countries, according to Hiestand. “Samaritan’s Purse uses tracking technology that allows donors to ‘follow your box’ to the destination country where it will be hand-delivered to a child in need. By clicking on ‘Follow Your Box’ at www.samaritanspurse.org/occ, families can register their boxes and find out where in the world their boxes brought joy to children,” Hiestand said.

For more information on how to participate in OCC, visit www.samaritanspurse. org.

National Collection Week for gift-filled shoe boxes is Nov. 12-19; however, shoe box gifts are collected all year at the Samaritan’s Purse headquarters in Boone, N.C.

State regent addresses local DAR organization The George Clinton Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution gathered for a guest luncheon at Cape May Campus Center on Saturday, August 24.

Regent Judy Sargent welcomed State Regent Sandy McCann. Frances Sharp introduced guests who are the descendants of John Hatter; Kimberly Stackhouse, Mary Ann Webb Van Tress, Linda Lon Walls, Ruth Ellen Walls Malyuk and Jeanne L. Walls George. Sargent thanked the hostesses Nancy Bernard, Karen McKenzie and Pat McKenzie. Chaplin Kitty Werner gave the blessing before the meal.

After lunch, Sargent presided for the opening ritual with Eva Botts leading the Pledge of Allegiance and Shirley Lakatos leading the American’s Creed.

The afternoon program was given by McCann who spoke on how the DAR has changed over the years.

She began by unveiling a 1930s’ painting by artist Grant Wood depicting ladies of the DAR. This produced a smile from the audience.

In the late 1890s, the founders of DAR needed a place for relics and a fireproof building in Washington D.C. — and so DAR was born.

This organization was set up on the committee system and over the years, the committees have changed as the needs have changed.

They have seen committees for radio, TV, flags, orphans, libraries and electronic media. The newest DAR committee is Celebrate America! which documents the community service of members.

McCann also spoke of

the websites for DAR which provide information about membership, committees, state information, questions and answers and much more.

The Oath of Membership was administered to new members Jacolyn Poske, Melinda Finnegan and Hannah Anderson.

Sargent introduced Linda Lee and Linda Bledsoe who displayed new bags, pins, shirts and necklaces with the DAR logo which are available for purchase after the meeting.

Nancy Bernard reported that in September the DAR would be recognized during Constitution Week by Mayor Randy Riley.

Susan Henry gave the President General’s Report which told about the new Celebrate America!

Committee.

Sandy Daugherty reported

that President Obama signed the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act which provided $633 billion for the military.

The minutes of the July 15, 2013 meeting were read

by Claire Ropp, acting secretary, and approved as read.

Correspondence was read from Kay Fisher, director of the Clinton County History Center, and from Gayle IrvinClary, chief of voluntary services at the Veterans Medical Center thanking the group for donations.

Treasurer Suzanne Madison reminded members that dues were now $59.00.

Pat McKenzie asked DAR to purchase owl pins and to collect labels for DAR schools. Frances Sharp, membership chairman, reported five prospective new members.

Sargent announced that

the Fall Fun Fair and $10 Bazaar had raised $940.

Under new business, Kay Stotts presented a citation from NSDAR for Chapter Achievement.

On Oct. 19, the Genealogical Records Committee is holding a workshop in Columbus.

On Nov. 23, the Christian Waldschmidt Homestead is sponsoring a craft festival. If anyone is interested in a field trip to Parkersburg, W. Va., please see Sargent.

The next meeting will be Saturday Sept. 21, 12:30 p.m. at Cape May Campus Center.

Susan Henry will give the program and hostesses are Carolyn Matthews, Phyllis Carey and Mary Jane Bone.

Several members lined up to spell out O-H-I-O for a picture for the state regent.

Those attending the meet-

ing were Judy Sargent, State Regent Sandy McCann, Janet Achor, Hannah Anderson, Nancy Bernard, Linda Bledsoe, Eva Botts, Joann Chamberlain, Sandy Daugherty, Melinda Finnegan, Joan Foley, Jane Gardina, Jeanne George, Susan Henry, Leslie Holmes, Mary Jane Johnson, Bonny Kanyuck, Shirley Lakatoes, Linda Lee, Suzanne Madison, Ruth Malyuk, Carolyn Matthews, Pat Matthews, Karen McKenzie, Patricia McKenzie, Katherine McMillian, Beth Mitchell, Jacolyn Poske, Claire Ropp, Barbara Scarboro, Frances Sharp, Kim Stackhouse, Carol Sternsher, Kay Stotts, Mary Ann Vantress, Linda Walls, Sandra Warner, Kitty Werner, Judy Schnatz and Claudia Fowler.

“It’s a fun place to be,” Terry Hoggatt said.

While they opened their shop at The Greene September 14, 2012, Kilwin’s has been, as the company proclaims, “a celebrated part of Americana” for seven decades. It was established in Petoskey, Mich., in 1947. Kilwin’s initially became popular in many of Michigan’s summer vacation towns on the Great Lakes and expanded into a booming business throughout Florida.

Today, stores can be found — and the sweet tooth of many sated — from Colorado to New Hampshire.

Kilwin’s at The Greene is Ohio’s first.

While Mike Hoggatt is employed fulltime with Toyota in Kentucky, Terry Hoggatt and her father, Delmar Mahlerwein ’58, were considering a joint business venture when Kilwin’s came into the picture.

The mother of five sons, she taught preschool for a number of years and was “looking for something different.”

Delmar retired from a career in public education in 1988 and spent 11 years as superintendent of the Nike Center in Wilmington. Delmar

went on to run a Payday Loans business for seven years but, now retired, he “got bored staying home.”

They have relatives in Petoskey that introduced them to Kilwin’s.

M a h l e r we i n wa s impressed with its business model but attempts to find a traditional resort location in southwest Ohio proved problematic when faced with no-competition clauses, lease prices and driving distances from their homes in Wilmington.

“People said, ‘We can get Kilwin’s on vacation but can’t when we get home,’” Terry Hoggatt said, adding that considering The Greene for the store location soon became an appealing prospect.

They conducted traffic surveys at the popular mall and, when considering the upscale nature of the massive shopping complex and the large number of nearby restaurants (think dessert), Kilwin’s franchising management also saw great potential in them locating there.

“We realize we have to make it on the service we give and the quality of our product,” Mahlerwein said, noting it’s one thing to sell ice cream at a Kilwin’s in a

vacation town all summer and another to do so yearround in Beavercreek, Ohio.

Making good first impressions and gaining repeat customers are essential to success in food service.

They offer complimentary tastes of fudge and ice cream to those entering the store — all wrapped in greeters’ sincere smiles, views of employees making specialty treats, brightly colored furnishings and, oh yes, that tempting aroma enticing the customer to splurge on all things chocolate and sugar.

In addition to instore sales to shoppers, Kilwin’s caters birthday, graduation and engagement parties, as well as producing party trays, corporate gifts and wedding favors (they monogrammed 150 S-Mores).

Terry Hoggatt runs the day-to-day operation and employs 14 mostly parttime workers, including some of their sons.

“My dad’s good for about two hours in a supervisory capacity,” Terry Hoggatt added, noting that, often, three generations of her family are working together.

It’s also no wonder that Terry Hoggatt’s husband, Mike Hoggatt, aims the business’ exhaust fans toward the sidewalk and street, where the sweet smell of confections wafts through the upscale shopping center, enticing olfactory-induced memories of vacations past and recruiting new fans of Kilwin’s 36 flavors of ice cream, fine chocolates and the Hoggatts’ homemade Mackinac Islandstyle fudge and caramel treats.

Vacations are the stuff of memories and Kilwin’s is in the business of helping customers create new memories through the shared experience of enjoying sweet treats.

Consider the mother that brought in her three children to celebrate their successful swim tests with ice cream, the lovestruck young man that traveled many miles to purchase a caramel apple for his girlfriend and the couple that held their engagement party surrounded by waffle cones, truffles, orange peel chocolates and floats, shakes

late!”

Mahlerwein admitted, “Terry and Mike do most of the work. I’m mainly a go-for.”

Mike Hoggatt often shows up in the evening and weekends.

“It’s a lot of fun for me, especially on Saturday when we can work together,” he said. “For me, it’s play. The candy business is fun business.”

Surrounded by chocolate and ice cream, Mike Hoggatt shared the “real treat” for him is the stories customers share, whether it’s about vacations involving Kilwin’s, the childhood memories of ice cream on family outings, or even the confectionary challenges faced in their kitchens.

“A lady came in and told her story about making fudge at Christmas.

It wouldn’t set up,” Mike Hoggatt said, noting the story emanated from her being mesmerized at the sight of a tray of perfect fudge in their display case. “They ate it anyway and, that Christmas, they had chocolate soup.

“For us, the best part is the people — they’re so fascinating.”

The “people” have made Salted Caramel their top selling ice cream.

Another popular flavor is Cinnamon Crumb Cake,

“the ice cream you can eat for breakfast,” Terry Hoggatt joked.

They declared Kilwin’s initial year a success and especially enjoyed the recent, late arriving, 90-plus temperatures— prime time ice cream season.

“We have the same people come in week after week,” Terry Hoggatt said about their success at developing a loyal clientele. “Also, a lot of people just wander into the shop. Many of them have been on vacation in Florida or Michigan and recognize the store name.

People walk and say, ‘It smells like vacation.’”

That’s music to their ears.

NOTE: Mike Hoggatt and Terry Mahlerwein met in high school in Blanchester and both enrolled at Wilmington College, where he majored in industrial supervision and she in education. He was the first student in the College’s co-op program at Cincinnati Milicron. Her great uncle was WC’s 15th president, Robert Lucas. Mike and Terry Hoggatt are members of WC’s classes of 1982 and ’83, respectively.

“When visiting the College as a high school student, it impressed me that people looked you in the eye and said ‘hello,’” she said.

“Being from a small town, Wilmington College’s diversity was an eye-opener,” Mike Hoggatt said, noting that his circle of friends included African-Americans and a student from the Middle East.

“Wilmington College for me was the first time when you could hear the other side of issues — that was important for me, especially because it planted seeds for later in life.”

Teenagers, who tend to be embarrassed about being at the shelter, can start feeling hope after being “so used to not knowing where they are going to stay night to night,” Stryker said.

For those who are severely depressed and need counseling, the shelter works with the local Recovery Services agency, one example of the shelter’s multiple partnerships.

Board member Sharon Benning said a “pretty ambitious” goal of raising $25,000 from Cardboard City was set for the milestone 25th anniversary. Last year, the event raised a little more than $18,000.

“We’re hoping the community, churches and area businesses understand how important the shelter services are,” said Benning.

A second goal pertains to social networking.

The goal is to have 1,000 likes on Facebook by the Cardboard City event.

For one thing, that would improve the shelter’s ability to let the public know when there’s a need.

In 2012, the shelter served as a temporary home for 275 people including 48 children.

Guidance to find employment and affordable housing, and to help with other basic needs is provided by an on-site staff.

A testimonial provided by a former resident whose first name is Ashley said staying at the shelter has turned her life around and she is “on my way to moving into my apartment.”

Cardboard City will be held at the city hall parking lot, with registration beginning at 6 p.m.

Saturday, Sept. 21. For more information, call the shelter at 937-382-6272.

Shelter From page A1 couraged, but who can start having hope when they see the generosity of people.

“We still have churches that bring meals in the evening and cook homemade meals for our residents,” Stryker said.

There also is a church gospel group that comes in and sings to the residents.

“I’ve had more people say, ‘These people don’t even know me’,” said Stryker.

An example of a local volunteer is Rebecca Waits.

Waits made a special dress for one of the resident girls who wanted to go to a dance, and has made Easter baskets and school book bags.

‘Chaos’? Obama goes after ‘extreme’ Republicans WASHINGTON (AP) — A potential federal shutdown looming, President Barack Obama on Monday warned congressional Republicans they could trigger national “economic chaos” if they demand a delay of his health care law as the price for supporting continued spending for federal operations.

House Republican leaders were to meet Tuesday in hopes of finding a formula that would avoid a shutdown on Oct. 1 without alienating party conservatives who insist on votes to undercut the Affordable Care Act. Even more daunting is a midto late-October deadline for raising the nation’s borrowing limit, which some Republicans also want to use as leverage against the Obama administration.

“Are some of these folks really so beholden to one extreme wing of their party that they’re willing to tank the entire economy just because they can’t get their way on this issue?” Obama said in a speech at the White House. “Are they really willing to hurt people just to score political points?”

The Republicans don’t see it that way.

House Speaker John Boehner, who opposes the threat of a shutdown, said, “It’s a shame that the president could not manage to rise above partisanship today.” Obama, said Boehner, “should be working in a bipartisan way to address America’s spending problem, the way presidents of both parties have done before,” and should delay implementation of the health care law.

While some conservatives supported by the tea party have been making

shutdown threats, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky said Monday that was “a dumb idea.” At a community meeting in Louisville, he said, “We should fight for what we believe in and then maybe we find something in between the two. … I am for the debate, I am for fighting. I don’t want to shut the government down, though. I think that’s a bad solution.”

Obama timed his remarks for the fifth anniversary of the bankruptcy of Wall Street giant Lehman Brothers, a major early event in the nearmeltdown of the U.S. financial system and a severe global recession.

He used the occasion to draw attention to the stillrecovering economy and to what he called a “safer” system now in place.

He delayed his remarks as authorities responded to the shootings that officials said left at least 13 people dead at the Washington Navy Yard just a few miles from the White House.

His remarks also came amid public skepticism over the state of the economy and his handling of it.

While unemployment has dropped to 7.3 percent from a high of 10 percent and the housing market has begun to recover, the share of longterm unemployed workers is double what it was before the recession, and a homebuilding revival has yet to take hold. A new analysis conducted for The Associated Press shows that the gap in employment rates between America’s highest- and lowest-income families has stretched to its widest level since officials began tracking the data a decade ago.

Mom who lost 5 children in Ohio fire is in shock TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — A mother who lost her five young children and boyfriend in a weekend mobile home fire was still in shock Monday, a family spokesman said.

Anna Angel, who was working at a fast-food restaurant Sunday morning when the fire broke out, is now faced with trying to make funeral arrangements for her children, said Keith Hodkinson, the family spokesman.

Investigators said Monday that they have finished going through the home in Tiffin, about 50 miles southeast of Toledo, but do not know yet what started the fire.

They also were waiting on results of autopsies performed Monday.

A state investigator said Sunday there was no indication of anything suspicious.

Angel lived in the home with her five children, ages 2 to 6, and her boyfriend.

A funeral home identified the children Monday as Tiara Angel, 6; Stormie Huey, 5; Trinity Huey, 4; Sunshine Huey, 3; and Domonic Fresch, 2.

Hodkinson identified

the boyfriend as 25-yearold Tim Fresch, of Tiffin.

A fund has been set up to help Angel pay for the funerals and replace her belongings lost in the fire. Some in the community have come forward to help with paying for cemetery plots and grave markers, Hodkinson said “The only thing she had left was the Burger King outfit she was wearing,” he said.

A relative said Fresch was the father of the boy who died. The two oldest children were in kindergarten and first grade, said Owanna Ortiz, the woman’s cousin.

The family didn’t have a car and got around on bicycles, Ortiz said.

Police and a neighbor said Angel raced home from work on her bicycle when she heard about the fire.

Fire officials said there was heavy fire in the center of the mobile home and heavy smoke throughout it when firefighters arrived. Witnesses said the fire burned quickly, breaking out windows and peeling some of the trailer’s aluminum siding.

Armed U.S. Marshals leave the scene where a gunman was reported at the Washington Navy Yard in Washington, on Monday, Sept. 16, 2013.

At least one gunman launched an attack inside the Washington Navy Yard, spraying gunfire on office workers in the cafeteria and in the hallways at the heavily secured military installation in the heart of the nation’s capital, authorities said.

3 killed in Washington Navy Yard shooting rampage WASHINGTON (AP) — A former Navy man opened fire Monday morning inside a building at the heavily secured Washington Navy Yard, spraying bullets at office workers in the cafeteria and the halls, authorities said. Thirteen people were killed, including the gunman.

Authorities said they were looking for a possible second attacker who may have been disguised in an olive-drab military-style uniform.

But as the day wore on and night fell, the rampage increasingly appeared to be the work of a lone gunman, and Navy Yard employees were being released from the complex and children were let out of their locked-down schools.

Investigators said they had not established a motive for the rampage, which unfolded about 8:20 a.m. in the heart of the nation’s capital, less than four miles from the White House and two miles from the Capitol.

As for whether it may have been a terrorist attack, Mayor Vincent Gray said: “We don’t have any reason to think that at this stage.”

But he said the possibility had not been ruled out.

It was the deadliest shooting rampage at a U.S.-based military installation since Maj. Nidal Hasan killed 13 people and wounded more than 30 others in 2009 at Fort Hood in Texas. He was convicted last month and sentenced to death.

President Barack Obama lamented yet another mass shooting in the U.S. that he said took the lives of American patriots. He promised to make sure “whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible.”

The FBI took charge of the investigation and identified the gunman killed in the attack as 34-year-old Aaron Alexis of Texas.

He died after a running gunbattle with police, investigators said.

A federal law enforcement official who was not authorized to discuss the case publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity said Alexis was believed to have gotten into the Navy Yard by using someone else’s identification card. But Navy officials said it was not yet clear how he got onto the base.

Alexis was a full-time reservist from 2007 to early 2011, leaving as a petty officer third class, the Navy said. It did not say why he left.

He had been working for a fleet logistics support squadron in Fort Worth, Texas. The Navy listed his home of record as New York City.

At the time of the rampage,

he was working as a Defense Department contractor, but it was not clear if the information technology worker was assigned at the Naval Yard, according to two defense officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

He was also pursuing a bachelor’s degree in aeronautics online with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, the school said. He started classes in July 2012.

In addition to those killed, more than a dozen people were hurt, including a police officer and two female civilians who were shot and wounded. They were all expected to survive.

The Washington Navy Yard is a sprawling labyrinth of buildings and streets protected by armed guards and metal detectors, and employees have to show their IDs at doors and gates to come and go.

About 20,000 people work there.

The rampage took place at Building 197, the headquarters for Naval Sea Systems Command, which buys, builds and maintains ships, submarines and combat systems. About 3,000 people work at headquarters, many of them civilians.

Witnesses described a gunman opening fire from a fourth-floor overlook, aiming down on people in the cafeteria on the main floor.

Others said a gunman fired at them in a third-floor hallway.

Patricia Ward, a logistics-management specialist, said she was in the cafeteria getting breakfast.

“It was three gunshots straight in a row — pop, pop, pop. Three seconds later, it was pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, so it was like about a total of seven gunshots, and we just started running,” Ward said.

Todd Brundidge, an executive assistant with Navy Sea Systems Command, said he and other coworkers encountered a gunman in a long hallway on the third floor.

The gunman was wearing all blue, he said.

“He just turned and started firing,” Brundidge said.

Terrie Durham, an executive assistant with the same agency, said the gunman firing toward her and Brundidge.

“He aimed high and missed,” she said. “He said nothing. As soon as I realized he was shooting, we just said, ‘Get out of the building.’”

Police would not give any details on the gunman’s weaponry, but witnesses said the man they saw had a long gun — which can mean a rifle or a shotgun.

In the confusion, police said around midday that they were searching for two men who may have taken part in the attack — one carrying a handgun and wearing a tan Navy-style uniform and a beret, the other armed with a long gun and wearing an olive-green uniform.

Washington Police Chief Cathy Lanier said it was unclear if the men were members of the military.

But later in the day, police said the man in the tan uniform had been identified and was not involved in the shooting.

As emergency vehicles and law enforcement officers flooded streets around the complex, a helicopter hovered, nearby schools were locked down and airplanes at nearby Reagan National Airport were grounded so they would not interfere with law-enforcement choppers.

Security was tightened at other federal buildings. Senate officials shut down their side of the Capitol while authorities searched for the potential second attacker. The House remained open.

Adm. Jonathan Greenert, chief of naval operations, was at the base at the time the shooting began but was moved unharmed to a nearby military installation.

Anxious relatives and friends of those who work at the complex waited to hear from loved ones.

Tech Sgt. David Reyes, who works at Andrews Air Force Base, said he was waiting to pick up his wife, Dina, who was under lockdown in a building next to where the shooting happened. She sent him a text message.

“They are under lockdown because they just don’t know,” Reyes said. “They have to check every building in there, and they have to check every room and just, of course, a lot of rooms and a lot of buildings.”

According to public records, Alexis’ neighbor called Fort Worth police in September 2010 after she was nearly struck by a bullet that came from his downstairs apartment. Alexis told police he was cleaning his gun when it went off.

He was arrested on suspicion of discharging a firearm within city limits but was not prosecuted.

Lady Hurricane plays Lady Indians to 1-1 deadlock

HILLSBORO — The Wilmington High School girls soccer team battled Hillsboro to a 1-1 tie Saturday in non-conference action.

“Hillsboro is a physical and wellcoached quality soccer team,” said WHS coach Kerry Lewis. “Longtime Hillsboro coach Leslie Molen is among the best high school coaches in the area. We respect Hillsboro soccer.

“None-the-less, we played well, matched their intensity, and didn’t relinquish a close range goal. This was our best defensive performance since our opener. Brelee Arehart led our defense supported by Brittany Keller, Hannah Putman and Megan Kees. Hillsboro’s lone goal came from distance.”

Wilmington (5-2-1 on the year) trailed 1-0 early but tied the match early in the second half.

“Our girls showed a lot of composure to overcome an early deficit,” said Lewis. “We continued to build pressure and threaten the HHS goal throughout the second half.

We adjusted to an offensive formation the final eight minutes and closed the game at a frenzied pace, but were unable to convert. Our girls gave tremendous effort down the stretch. Credit the Hillsboro defense. I was very pleased with our strength and conditioning in the final minutes.”

Wilmington’s lone goal came in the 43rd minute when Allison White connected from the top of the

box off an assist by Drezden Beam.

“It’s great to see players rewarded for their hard work,” Lewis said.

“Allison began our scoring sequence from beyond midfield on an outlet pass to Drezden up the side. Beam beat her opponent to the corner, then found White making a 35-yard run to the top of the box. Allison hit a rocket inside the left post. It’s fun to watch two great players working so well together.”

Lady Quakers record 2-1 upset over Fighting Scots WOOSTER – The Wilmington College women’s soccer team turned up the defense Saturday in recording a 2-1 upset over regionally-ranked Wooster in nonconference action.

“The key for us is we played well defensively,” said head coach Steve Spirk. “We marked well in the midfield and the back four was outstanding.”

Seniors Rachel Gutowski and Jenni Marck were joined by sophomore Ashley Stockton and freshman Morgan Combs in leading the stellar defensive effort. WC held Wooster to five shots, four

by the same player. Wooster’s lone score came on a penalty kick following a hand ball in the 86th minute.

Not only was the defensive effort effective, Wilmington controlled the pace of the game by maintaining possession offensively, said Spirk “We passed the ball as well as we have all year long,” said Spirk.

“In the second half, we didn’t just sit on our lead, we took it to them. We got an early goal on a free kick.”

Wilmington took an early lead as Lauren Hamrock found the

back of the net for her second goal of the season in the 11th minute. The insurance goal came in the 57th minute when Lauren Lewis scored from a free kick from Bonnie Grace.

“I think we were well prepared for them, and talked how we were going to attack them,” said Spirk. “It’s been a long time since we have beaten this team (at Wooster).”

Wilmington (4-1-1) returns to Charlie Gilhart Field 7 p.m.

Wednesday, hosting Earlham in the first of four consecutive nonconference home games.
