The Calhoun County Board of Supervisors opted to take no action Sept. 20 on a request from a contractor to extend the deadline to finish pouring sidewalks around the courthouse square. Contractor Cory Juergens of Estherville contacted Calhoun County Engineer Zac Andersen earlier this month to seek the extra time for the sidewalk work. The project deadline is Sept. 30. “The last time he did work here was July 28,” Andersen told the supervisors. “There were three rain days in August. I don’t feel too sorry for him at this point. If he got rained out somewhere else, why wasn’t he here working?” Andersen and the supervisors noted that Juergens could have completed the sidewalk on the east and north side of the square. Supervisor Scott Jacobs said he has been concerned for weeks about the unfinished work on the square’s east side, which has left a gap between the street curb and the courthouse square grass. Large chunks of gravel have been left in that gap, and courthouse visitors often just step over the curb and walk through the gap. Andersen said he doesn’t have a problem allowing Juergens extra time to finish the sidewalks on the south and west side, where the main contractor has yet to finish street construction. But for the other two sides of the square, “I don’t see any value in extending anything,” Andersen said. Board Chairman Mike Cooper was absent Sept. 20, attending a family funeral. Jacobs and Supervisor Gary Nicholson did not take any action on the request beyond discussing it.

Nicholson said Juergens is probably hoping to have to come to Rockwell City just once, to pour all four parts of the sidewalk in one trip. Andersen said county road crews have likely wrapped up their concrete work for the season. Their last project was work on county road N65. Nicholson questioned why the county was doing diamond grinding on a road around Twin Lakes before a similar project on the road to Lanesboro. “I think the priority should be going to agriculture,” Nicholson said. Andersen said the projects are funded differently. The county will pay for the Twin Lakes area project with local funding, but the Lanesboro area project is federally funded and not on the funding schedule until next year. Nicholson also asked about using more concrete instead of asphalt. “We have a lot of pavement that’s been down sine the late 1960s,” Andersen said. “We’ve patched. The cost to rip something out and replace it with new concrete (would run very high).” Andersen acknowledged that the concrete pavement seems to hold up better than asphalt. Crews laying the Dakota Access pipeline through Calhoun County finished boring under four more roads, Andersen said, bringing the total finished bores to 13. He said he did have some concern about how the gravel roads will hold up, based on weather reports. “This rain probably isn’t the best thing for the roads, with all the traffic in and out (for the pipeline work),” he said. Some of Dakota Access’ crews are now working seven days a week to push along the project, which started later than company officials had wanted to.

These stories are part of a two-week series about pediatric cancer. McAlexander: ‘I want my life to be normal again’ By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor

By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor

Jacy McAlexander doesn’t remember a lot about the first time he got sick. As a second-grade student, Jacy was diagnosed in 2009 with Ewing’s sarcoma, a relatively rare form of cancer that causes tumors to grow on bones or around bones. After a surgery to remove a tumor, and part of the rib on which it was located, and an aggressive treatment plan comprised of radiation and chemotherapy, Jacy was declared to be cancer-free. “I remember some of the painful things like bone marrow tests – they really hurt,” Jacy said in an email to The Graphic-Advocate last week. “I remember some of the other tests that hurt.” The two hours he spent in an MRI chamber stuck with him – the heat he felt and the cramped space that prevented him from moving around. The food during his treatment wasn’t very good, he said, and he remembers getting really homesick.

The memories aren’t all bad, he said. A friend who lived in Des Moines would bring Butterfinger Blizzards to him as a treat while he was hospitalized. “I remember that I had to be in the hospital on my birthday, and my mom put labels on candy bars and we passed them out to kids and all of the hospital staff,” he said. Everybody helped me celebrate. We had one big party all weekend.” Jacy surpassed the five-year mark cancer free. Last spring, he began noticing new pain. Scans showed new growths, again on his ribs. Late this summer, doctors found several more very small tumors on his liver and lymph nodes. After his diagnosis, Jacy went to his room for awhile, and sat by himself in the dark, his mom, Kerri McAlexander, recalled. After a few hours, he came out and said he was ready to begin fighting the disease again. Jacy said he feels like he doesn’t have much of a choice about facing down cancer again. “This is what life has given me,” he said. “I wish no other kids would

ever have to go through this. I know that I have a lot of people who are working hard to help me. I’m really lucky that I have awesome doctors who are trying so hard to help cure my disease. Lots of people care about me, and are trying to help.” Even while going through the treatments, Jacy, a sophomore at South Central Calhoun High School has stayed active in school and extracurricular groups. He’s up early each morning for jazz band practice, and stays after school to help with the football team. At SCC’s homecoming skit night, SCC Coach Bryan Case praised Jacy. “He’s the most courageous,” Case said. “He’s the toughest. He’s the most inspirational member of our team.” Jacy shrugs off the implication that he could do anything less than follow through with his commitments. “If I give up my activities, it’s like cancer wins,” he said. “I don’t want cancer to win. I have to do everything I can to make my life as normal as it was before. I don’t want or need special treatment. I know that I don’t have to be in these activities

– they are a privilege. I want to do my share. I just want my life to be normal again.”

See Jacy Page 4

Jacy McAlexander and his mom, Kerri, are insistent about one thing – more resources need to be directed to researching cures for childhood cancers. “Many people think that when they donate to cancer research that all the money is divided up equally among all kinds of cancers, and this just isn’t true,” said Jacy, a 16-year-old South Central Calhoun High School sophomore. “I wish that childhood cancer research was given a larger portion of those funds. There has been a lot of progress made in the last few years in curing childhood cancers, but until more funding is given to pediatric cancer, the research won’t be equal to that of adult cancers.”

Empty Nest By Curt Swarm Living off Grid Before we ate, I helped Zach catch a marauding piglet that had escaped from its pen beside the house. Zach had separated the piglet from its mama and litter because it wasn’t doing well. It needed some TLC. Ginnie and I were having supper at our friends’ house, Erin and Zach Griebahn, who live west of Mt. Pleasant on 30 acres of rolling farm land. The Griebahn’s have three small children, Jonathan, Eleanor and Benjamin. Erin cooked bacon-cheese burgers on a Coleman propane grill in the barn, because the wood-burning cook stove would make the house too hot. We ate outside at a picnic table, under a shade tree. Chirping birds, crickets, and the buzz of bees from the Griebahn’s bee hives, serenaded us while we ate. The bacon on the cheeseburgers was home grown, and delicious. Zach, in characteristic fashion, finished his meal before any of us, because he likes the last bite to be as cold or hot as the first. After supper, Zach and I walked up the hill to gather eggs from their three moveable chicken coops. After feeding and watering, Zach, with a handy dolly he made, moved the coops forward one cage length, to give the chickens fresh grass. He does this daily, and says he can really see the difference between the newly fertilized pasture, and the non-fertilized. And the chickens love the fresh grass and insects, clucking away contentedly as if talking. The Griebahn’s live off grid—no Access Energy, no Rural Water, no propane delivery. They’re not hippies, they’re not Amish, they’re just a regular family who enjoy not being dependent on utilities that can abruptly stop or skyrocket in price. They do their laundry at a laundromat, buy ice for cold storage in coolers, and purchase drinking water. For now, that is. The newly constructed windmill behind their house is for pumping water from a springfed pond to the livestock—pigs and chickens, cattle in the future. Also in the future may be a water filtration system for drinking water, a solarpowered water heater, and a generator being designed by Zach and an electrical-engineer friend, that will be powered by the windmill. Cur-

rently, three solar panels on the south side of the house supply 12 volts of electricity for small LED lights that Zach built in Ball Mason jars. (There’s a 12-volt movement going around amongst back-to-nature people.) The 12 volts also recharge their cell phones, and powers the WiFi and television. Yes, television. But, as of yet, the television is not for pulling in air-wave broadcasting. It’s for watching movies, documentaries, and educational DVD’s. Erin and Zach homeschool their children. They enjoy being able to teach their kids about God without fear of ridicule. Zach was homeschooled, and is obviously bright and socially well adjusted. The kids may be the friendliest, most non-adult fearing children I have ever seen, helping their parents with chores, and naming the farm animals— Mike, Mary, Wilbur, etc. Zach, Erin and the kids built their 550 sq ft house and barn. They have a gas-powered generator for the power tools. The house is heated by an authentic-looking pioneer cook stove that will drive them out of the house in the coldest of weather. They go through 4 – 5 cords of wood over the winter that they all take part in splitting. See their website at www.oldefood.com. The Griebahns raise chickens, pigs, and soon-to-be cattle for customers. They have the meat slaughtered, butchered and packaged, then personally deliver the meat to the cus-

tomer’s home—something called Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). Customers can actually come and visit their hog at the Olde Farm. The animals are free range and antibiotic free. All of this pioneer-type lifestyle obviously takes a lot of time and work (and courage!). Zach works two-to-three days a week helping his father run the family business in West Branch. The rest of his time is devoted to family and farm. To guard against, what they call “homesteader burnout,� they do a lot of activities off the farm, like taking the kids to Adventure Land, play dates with the neighbors, and going to the library. Erin and Zach are 30-years old. Their entire approach to living, from the square footage of their house, to its location on the land, to the distance to the compost pile, has been meticulously calculated to make the most efficient use of their time. They both plan on living off grid up until old age, when carrying a bucket of feed or splitting wood may become too difficult. Their motto is, “Financial freedom through a drastically downsized standard of living.� Have a good story? Call or text Curt Swarm in Mt.

Rockwell City council takes step to add franchise fee By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor Members of the Rockwell City Council approved a measure Sept. 19 that will allow them to adopt a franchise fee. Iowa empowers utility providers to add up to a 3 percent surcharge on customer bills in cities in which the city council has adopted a franchise fee, with the money to be directed to specific uses as outlined in Iowa law. Those uses include repairing, replacing or otherwise improving pub-

lic buildings and facilities, projects that could prevent or mitigate future disasters, energy conservation measures of low-income homeowners, low-income energy assistance programs or a variety of public safety and public works projects. “We haven’t decided� to actually pursue a franchise fee, City Clerk Kelly Smidt said Sept. 20. “We can do that at a later date.� Passing the initial reading to consider the franchise fee opens up the option for Rockwell City, which has never had a franchise fee on residents’ utility bills, she added. Lake City enacted a franchise fee

said. The council adopted the final reading of the city’s updated code of ordinances, Smidt said. The city already has several new ordinances to add to the code, though, items that were approved during the monthlong process required to adopt the new code. Council members are ready to take action on a proposed ordinance allowing ATV use in town. Smidt said Police Chief Larry Schoop brought an updated version of the proposed ordinance, allowing city residents to use ATVs in removing snow from driveways.

Instructional coaches highlight collaboration By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor A mission of the state’s teacher leadership compensation program is to create more transparency in how school districts operate, a South Central Calhoun instructional coach told the SCC school board Sept. 19. “We thought we should start by sharing about the committees we have in each building,� Erin Blair said. Blair, formerly a vocal music teacher, was assigned to SCC Elementary, and has been helping that building’s established committees shift to address the goals outlined by Iowa education officials. One new initiative this year, Blair said, has been an attempt to curb rambunctious behavior before school starts. Teachers began bringing carts of books to the elementary multipurpose room, where younger students wait between arriving and heading to their classroom each morning. “The kids have really taken to

that,� Blair said. “They’re just trying to structure some of that (time).� Teachers are also working to encourage students to adopt a growth mindset, Blair told school board members. The concept instructs students to stop thinking about themselves as bad at math or good at sports, and instead shows students how to think about what skills they have yet to master. “Everybody is growing in skills,� Blair said. “You can get it. You have to work at it. Everybody works at a different pace.� Another committee, which focuses on curriculum and professional development, last year selected a new English and language arts program, which focuses on “being a writer, being a reader and making meaning� when reading and writing texts, Blair said. “This year they’re going to assess how it’s going.� Elementary students also just completed the first of three FAST assessments for the year, which will help point teachers to students’ weaknesses. Blair said another committee is

working to increase publicity about school events, with teachers posting to social media pages and planning new family events for the school year. Teachers are considering a junior fine arts night and hosting a professional storyteller, as well as working on getting a South Central Calhoun Titans mural painted in the building. At the middle school, instructional coach Sara Pibal said she has worked with teachers on several projects, too. One is the first student assessment of the year. She also had teachers record all of the Iowa Core standards for their subject areas, and is asking teachers to mark the applicable standards for each lesson for the next month. At the end of that process, Pibal said teachers should be able to see if their lessons are hitting all of the target goals, or which standards need more attention. “A lot is going on,� Pibal said. “It feels like we’re going in the right direction.� During Sept. 19’s in-service work day, teachers looked at ways to catch and help struggling readers.

Middle school teachers are also working with the district’s antibullying program, which middle schoolers call Titan Time. A committee dedicated to the anti-bullying program creates the lesson plans for the rest of the building teachers, and groups go through the lessons each week. Pibal said middle school teachers are also looking to increase public awareness of school events, and students are already working on the school’s Veteran’s Day program. High school teachers are focusing on improvising students’ literacy in all academic disciplines, instructional coach Jeri Woodward said. The more literate students are, she said, the more students are career and college ready, which is one of the district’s top goals for students. Woodward said the community should watch the high school’s website for more information about student events and accomplishments. Fundraising for an electronic sign has brought in more than $6,000 in donations, with another $2,000 committed by a donor, to be pro-

SMCH again named to top 150 Iowa workplaces By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor For the fourth straight year, Stewart Memorial Community Hospital has been named one of the top 150 workplaces in the state of Iowa. The honor was bestowed upon the hospital based on employee survey information provided to the Des Moines Register. Employees in the survey praised the hospital, noting a genuine concern by management for employees, and a passion for improving patient care. Stewart Memorial has received the award five of the six years it has been given in Iowa. Receivi ng the honor for several consecutive years

s h ow s C E O Ci n d y C a r s t e n s a few things, she said Friday. “It tells me that we are not getting lax about our standards,� Carstens said. “That helps us in being able to recruit people to work with us.� The high standards and positive workplace also helps the hospital to retain employees, she said. “We’ve had people who have left us,� she said. “They’ve found the culture (at other health care institutions) is not the same. We’ve had people come back.� Carstens said hospital administrators have focused on improving the hospital’s culture for employees and patients. Department directors now meet monthly with staff members, giving employees a chance to talk about what is and isn’t working

in their departments. Carstens said the meetings also give managers the chance to talk with employees directly about what kind of support the managers can provide to employees to address problems. When people apply to work at Stewart Memorial, they are told up front about the atmosphere and expectations. And then, it’s a potential employee’s direct co-workers who help decide who gets hired, Carstens said, which helps to filter candidates for not just job-specific skills, but also personalities that will mesh well with existing staff members. Nearly 80 percent of SMCH employees participated in the survey, a 4 percent increase from last year. WorkplaceDynamics, a research firm focused on organizational

health and employee engagement, conducted the survey. In the past year, more than 6,000 organizations and two million employees in the U.S. used WorkplaceDynamics to survey employees. “Being a top workplace for us is directly related to our employees loving what they do, where they work and who they work with,� SMCH Chief People Officer Holly Espenhover said. “Being nominated five times over the past six years has a significant impact on us as an organization. It tells me that our priorities are in the right place – and that starts with our people. By focusing on our leaders and staff, they are able to focus their attention on delivering high quality patient care to every patient we serve.�

as the result of the toxic treatments – chemotherapy and radiation – being used to stop the initial cancer, she added. Those aren’t the only challenges facing doctors trying to treat a child with cancer. Dr. Sarita Sastry, national director of research and programs for Cure Search, a national program that helps cancer researchers bring promising treatments to clinical trials, said a few other roadblocks slow the treatment of pediatric cancers. One is the children’s ages themselves. “Many of the treatments have to be tested in adults first,� Sastry said. “To test an untested treatment on children is difficult to wrap our heads around.� Pediatric cancers are also incred-

ibly varied – researchers split childhood cancers into 12 distinct groups, some of which have up to 100 subtypes of cancer. “That makes (research) harder, parsing already small groups in to even smaller subtypes,� Sastry said. Sastry said she doesn’t think childhood cancers are occurring more frequently, but the diagnosis may be a little more common than in past years. “I think we’re getting better at diagnosis,� she said. “Technology is great in that way. Because our ability to diagnose is better, we’re getting more diagnoses.� But technology is helping doctors become more successful at treatment, too, Sastry said. Cure Search, based in Maryland,

previously helped distribute federal cancer research grants to academic institutions. About four years ago, before Sastry began working there, a change in how that money was parceled out forced the organization to reassess its mission. Its board decided to focus on researchers with promising drugs that haven’t yet reached clinical trials, giving about $10 million each to five to eight research groups. Of those drugs, which were five to 10 years from being ready to be commercialized, so far one has emerged ready for clinical trials. Sastry said researchers often have a hard time bridging the gap between doing the initial research and getting a drug ready for trials. “We very vigorously track and demand outcomes,� Sastry said. Cure Search, which is entirely privately funded, now also helps to bring new drugs to pharmaceutical manufacturers and is working to encourage those companies to produce cancer treatment drugs that won’t turn much of a profit, Sastry added. Other organizations, such as St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and St. Baldrick’s Foundation, also raise money to support childhood cancer research specifically. The McAlexanders have become active in fundraising for cancer research and support for families of children with cancer. Kerri said some of the organizations will call on her family to speak with potential donors – hearing stories like Jacy’s is more effective than just a generic presentation on cancer, she said. She is grateful, she said, for the progress that has been made in treating childhood cancers. “When I was growing up, kids didn’t make it,� she said. “Thirty years ago, it was a death sentence. Now the survival rates – almost 80 percent make it through the first diagnosis at least.�

Cancer from page 1 Cancer research organizations say about 4 percent of federal cancer research funding is dedicated to childhood cancers. Kerri McAlexander, while sympathetic to adults who are diagnosed with cancer, said the consequences children face when they develop cancer are much more significant. “The average age of (childhood cancer) diagnosis is 6,� she said. “When a child is diagnosed (and dies) they lose 50 years off of their expected lifespan.� Even a successf ul t reat ment doesn’t come without drawbacks. “Sadly, most of the kids we have lost have not been from their initial cancer,� Kerri said. “So many kids develop a secondary cancer.� That second cancer often comes

vided with the school is closer to the roughly $20,000 needed for a new sign, to be located on the north side of the high school. High school teachers are continuing with the modified study hall system implemented last year. The system allows students, with parental permission and no Ds or Fs in any class, to leave the building slightly early each afternoon, at 3 p.m. Students who have a D or an F in class must bring that grade up to at least a C to be able to leave early. “We found a lot of times they just missed a day of school� and had missed turning in an assignment or taking a test, Woodward said. High school students are also participating in an anti-bullying program, she said. The Iowa Department of Education provided grants for school districts to implement the Teacher Leadership Compensation program, which funds the salaries of the instructional coaches, as well as provides some additional payment to teachers who join the leadership committees.

Calhoun County added to senior dental project By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor Nursing home residents in Calhoun County may soon have access to more dental services. Iowa’s I-Smile program, which brings dental hygienists to public schools to check students’ teeth and to perform some preventative dental work, is expanding a two-year pilot project targeting senior citizens to the county, said Angela Halfwassen, who manages I-Smile in Webster County and surrounding counties. “We get as many calls for adults as we do for kids,� Halfwassen told members of the Calhoun County Health Board. The program, which another hygienist will run, will teach nursing home staff members how to perform better and more regular dental care on nursing home residents, Halfwassen said. The program will be for nursing home residents who are at least 65 years old. The Iowa Department of Public Health began the program in Scott, Lee and Van Buren counties. Halfwassen said the program will now expand to eight counties. The goal, state health officials said on their website, is to improve senior citizens’ oral health. “Oral health has a significant impact on the overall health of the body,� IDPH officials said on their website. “Maintaining ideal oral health is necessary for eating, speaking and quality of life. Chronic health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, upper respiratory infections, and dementia, have been linked to poor oral health conditions. Despite the importance of a healthy mouth, having good oral health and access to affordable dental care may be challenging for the older Iowan.� Sue Hammen, of the Calhoun Cou nt y Depar t ment of Public

Health, suggested Halfwassen and the program coordinator investigate whether a the program could be expanded to include assisted living facilities, such as Golden Meadows in Manson. Halfwassen said she would check that. The health board also gave Emergency Medical Services Director Kerri Hull permission to purchase a new electronic locking system for the EMS office and ambulance bays in Rockwell City. The system will use chip-enabled cards, which will be compatible with the access card system at Stewart Memorial Community Hospital and Trinity Regional Medical Center in Fort Dodge. SMCH CEO Cindy Karstens said the system has worked well for the hospital. “It’s connected to our computer system,� she said. “We can go back and review who came in that door. It has been a very good security measure we put in place.� Hull said the building now uses regular locks; a key card system will be more secure, she added. Key card access points for the first four doors, and the software to support the system, will cost about $24,000, Hull said. Later, she would like to add the locks to several doors within the building, to further limit access to certain patient records and prescription drugs kept on hand for the ambulance crews’ use. The board approved offering a limited contract to former Calhoun County Public Health administrator Jane Condon, who retired earlier this year. Condon will return to the office to help with grant writing and other tasks. The Webster County Department of Public Health is also considering contracting with Condon to help that county and Calhoun County as public health departments in both counties seek accreditation through the Public Health Accreditation Board.

Jacy from page 1 SCC teachers and his friends go a long way to helping him feel normal, he said. His friends don’t treat him differently because his cancer has come back, which he appreciates. And while people may know that kids with cancer don’t want to miss the fun part of life, Jacy said even the work parts are something he wants to be able to continue doing. Having cancer has changed him, he said. “I think that all of this has probably made me a more caring person, and one who maybe thinks about

things a little more,� he said. “I never want anyone to be sick or hurt. I like to be home more than some kids.� Friends of the McAlexander family are hosting a fundraiser Oct. 15 at SCC Middle School in Rockwell City. The evening includes a meal from 5 to 8 p.m. A silent auction begins at 5 p.m. and goes through 7:30 p.m. Available items include Hawkeye football tickets, Iowa State University homecoming game tickets, Iowa State University basketball tickets and a variety of items donated by community members.

ADAZA The farmers are getting into “harvest mode�, but the crops aren’t quite ready yet. Some early varieties of soybeans may be ready when the soil dries enough - the storms on the 15th-16th totalled 2 to 3 inches of rain. That was appreciated to up the annual totals, but now it’s time for drying breezes! Diana May and Gary Howard

of Newton came to visit Barbara Winkelman on the 22nd and stayed through the weekend. They helped Barb tidy up her yard and other endof-summer tasks that needed to be done. Visitors like that, are great! The Adaza Thursday Club will meet on October 6 with Lou Blanchfield.

We started this week out with Mary and Betty joining us for bingo. Tuesday, we had spa day. All of the ladies enjoy having their nails done and each week my crowd gets larger. Lina Haeder joined us and helped serve at tunes and treats Tuesday afternoon. We served cake and muffins that were made by our neighbor, Sandy Feld. I cannot think of a better way to make it past the middle of the week than a Coca-Cola party! Wednesday, we plugged in the deep fat fryer and made french fries with ice cold Coca-Cola. We had little glass Coke glasses to drink out of. I could not keep up with the cooking and we served a 10 lb bag of french fries! We are always trying to think about the little things we give up and miss when we go to a nursing home. We have already decided that next month is going to be homemade on-

SUNNYVIEW “S’mores, S’mores, S’mores – what is better for a special treat than graham crackers, toasted marshmallows and Hershey chocolate. Elmer spread the word that he was starting a fire on Tuesday evening in the Court Yard at Sunnyview and we should all come be part of the gathering. Some wondered what kind of fire could be started on the new carpet. Never fear, the fire was contained in a special box just made for roasting the marshmallows. He had used it for a family wedding when a granddaughter requested it. Now it is requested at other events in the family. The weather was great – I did not see a bug – nice breeze – there was plenty of seating room with three picnic tables. Life is good at Sunnyview Independent Living. (John Alne admitted he had three S’mores.) Helen Dudley brought ‘wipes’ – and there were some sticky fingers.� Submitted by Jo Ann Maguire, picture by Marlene Stacy. What an Open House! There were reports of over 50 people coming to visit on Sunday, September 18th. Thank you to the residents of 16 Sunnyview suites that were on the tour: Calvin & Marge, Carole, Delmer & Jean, Hat, Margaret, Bonnie, Harold, Jo Ann, Weston, Pauline, Maureen, Ted & Marlene, Lois, Shirlee, Dick & Ardeth, and Sid. Besides the “occupied� suites, a few empty ready-to-go suites were also on the tour. Each suite on the tour was designated by a weighted bal-

loon at the door, so it was easy to tell where to stop. A “ground-breaking� feature is the newly renovated court yard. Since the day was sunny and dry, we were able to enjoy the new court yard carpet and the arrangement of picnic tables and chairs (and the flowering plants). Was there music? Yes, thanks to Jimmy Van Scoy, Sunnyview residents and visitors enjoyed music in the Big Lounge. Let’s hear it for all of those “Frank Sinatra� fans, and of course there was much more. Was there food? Yes, thanks to Maurine Zuetlau, everyone could enjoy homemade cookies. Golden Buckle Home board members and Sunnyview staff assisted with greeting guests, showing them around, and restocking the cookies and lemonade. Thank you to Renee Stauter, Joe Berger, Dave Swank, Jim Anderson, Jim Hindt, Sandy Alne, Jana Blunt, and Chris Ramthun. By 4:30 p.m. the dining room was “packed� and people lingered to chat. It looked like “a fun time was had by all.� Recently, Jean Z. received a beautiful “birthday� flower arrangement, and she is sharing it with us in the Sunnyview dining room: fall colors of yellow, orange and brown, set off by a neon green bow. We are also enjoying artwork on display in the dining room, painted by our friend, the late Mary Thompson. Remember, our website is www. sunnyviewil.com, and the coffee is always on.

LOHRVILLE My thought for the day is: Your problem isn’t the problem, your reaction is. The trivia question for the week is: What Ida Grove native was elected Governor three times and became a US senator in 1968? On Tuesday, the VFW ladies; Dorothy Siemann, Shirley Riedesel and Bette Knapp went to the ice cream shop in Glidden for supper. The food was great. They really enjoyed the ice cream also. On Saturday, Sandi Anderson and Dorothy Siemann attended the “Table A Fare� and silent auction fundraiser at Opportunity Living in Lake City, where 180-plus attendees enjoyed a delicious salad bar. Toni Kerns was their hostess. Toni Kerns, President of the Auxiliary, welcomed everyone. The message was given by Kari Jones, Chief Nursing Officer at Stewart Memorial Hospital. Rev. Beth Harbaugh of the Union Church gave the blessing. The door prize was given by President Kerns and silent auction winners were announced by Mary Sporleder and Peggy Seanlan.

The Table A Fare committee members are: Vickie Keonin, Danielle Evans, and Mary Ludwig. The silent auction committee members are: Mary Sporleder and Peggy Seanlan. Since 1959, the SMCH Auxiliary has been a vital part of the health care mission of the hospital. It was a great thing to attend. On Thursday, the Birthday Club met at the Lake City Drive In. Toni Kerns, Jeanne Lightner and daughter, Jo of Des Moines and Bette Knapp attended. As usual the food was great. Guests of the Lohrville Coffee Group were: Leroy and Dora Lee Souder of Minnesota. It was good to see you both. The Helping Hand Club will meet on October 4th, at the home of Bette Knapp, with Dorothy Siemann as the co-hostess. The meeting will start at 1:30 and dues will be accepted at that time. The answer to the trivia question is: Harold Hughes. So until next week, have a good one.

SHADY OAKS A Stroll through Calhoun County History Shady Oaks was honored to host Iowa historian, Darcy Maulsby once again, as she spoke about her new book. Darcy did a wonderful job relating to our residents as she was digging back in time and giving their memories life. During her presentation, she spoke of many things including: the railroad; how agriculture truly motivated Iowa; different stores

that have been here and gone; and so many other topics. Even residents who were not born and raised in Calhoun County found the presentation satisfying, as their own memories and happy times resurfaced. We are so blessed to have such a good friend stop and visit us with history-rich stories! We wish Darcy the best of luck with her new book, “A Culinary History of Iowa�!

School board considers Lytton ball field request By Erin Sommers Graphic-Advocate Editor A leader with an adult softball league that played more than 75 games at some of the Lytton ball fields this season asked the South Central Calhoun School Board to consider handing over the former youth league fields to the City of Lytton Sept. 19. Brett Meyer has spearheaded the league, which brought the old youth league fields back in to playing shape, he told school board members. The league has eight teams with players from more than 20 towns, Meyer said, and brings 80 to more than 100 players to Lytton each Sunday during the summer season. All of the other fields on which the league plays are city owned leagues, Meyer said, asking the school board members if they would consider selling or giving the fields to the City of Lytton. Meyer also proposed a chain link fence for part of the field. That, and the fields’ proximity to a district

bus barn and diesel and gasoline storage tanks by the barn, presented obstacles to Meyer’s proposal, SCC Transportation Director Doug Riley said. “My big concern is snow,� he said. “If we put a permanent fence there, it’s going to create snow drifts.� A board member asked whether the original property owner, who donated land for the youth ball fields, had included a clause allowing him to have the first chance to buy back the land if the school district opted to sell it. Superintendent Jeff Kruse said the district would have to check that. Kruse said he wasn’t sure he wanted the district to get rid of the fields.

teacher, Principal Marc DeMoss said. The school, for the first time, has a student enrolled who needs an ELL specialist to help classroom teachers coordinate lessons that the student can complete. The student does not speak or understand English fluently, DeMoss said. The state doesn’t allow the district to send students who do not speak English to another district that has programs for nonnative English speakers, DeMoss said. “An ELL teacher will work with teachers to differentiate instruction,� board President Ron Maulsby added. DeMoss said a Manson Northwest Webster ELL instructor turned down SCC’s request to work with the student and middle school teachers. DeMoss and Kruse said they each have a few more districts they could

contact. An ELL specialist must have completed at least 18 credit hours of ELL-specific curriculum. SCC Elementary School has three students who require an ELL specialist this year, Principal Nicole McChesney. The district had one such student last year. At SCC High School, 107 students have enrolled in classes for college credit, Principal Randy Martin told school board members. Some of those classes are online, others are offered by high school instructors. Of that group of students, 47 are taking more than one college credit course this fall, Martin said. He said he anticipates another round of high ACT test scores this year, comparable, perhaps, with the high scores last year’s students achieved, he said.

CENTRAL SCHOOL REMEMBERS September, 1976 40 Years Ago

New teachers in the Lake City school system this fall are: Pat Axne, freshman English and Spanish; Alice Johnson, junior and senior English, Eagles Echoes and yearbook advisor; Neil Martin, second grade; Ellen Clark, 7th and 8th math and geometry; Mary Short, speech and English; Vern Keerbs, elementary principal; Gene Sandell, commercial and math; Tom Shea, junior and senior high boys physical education and health; Gary Telford, biology and physiology and John Nielsen, vocal music. Guests Friday evening in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Hildreth for a barbeque supper were Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Hildreth, Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Dooley, Mr. and Mrs. Larry DeVries and boys, Rev. and Mrs. Chris Nettles and Brian and Mr. and Mrs. Junior Palmer of Coon Rapids. Fifty-seven years ago, work began on Lake City’s Community [Memorial] Building. Not the actual, physical work of putting up walls and a room, but the purchasing of a lot on which to put it. Lake City is again faced with a similar situation. Only this time a new building isn’t being constructed; the old one is being revitalized. At the suggestion of the Horizon Committee, the Graphic will be running reprints of articles which appeared in the paper over a half century ago. They’ll tell how the funds were raised for the building, the problems that were encountered

and the final result. “ . . . with the advent of the automobile, the boundaries of Lake City have been greatly enlarged until now it is not uncommon to meet folks on our streets who live from twenty-five to fifty miles away. Added prosperity has served to enlarge our desires and rendered possible in this community things that a few years ago were thought far beyond our reach.� Eleven members of the class of 1936 met with their wives, and/or husbands and children Monday, September 6, in the Iowa Public Service meeting rooms to honor Mrs. Blanch Hobart, their junior high English teacher. Dorothy Thede DeVries asked all members to meet at her home after the Homecoming Football game. Members present were Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Brugger and Janet of Torrence California; Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Prickett of Mason City; Mrs. Phyllis Copper Determan of Breda; Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Dowling of Lohrville; Mr. and Mrs. Ralph McIntire of Sac City; Mrs. Berna Filmer Pierce of Glidden; Mr. and Mrs. Russell Miller (Verda Lynn); Archie Rice, Mr. and Mrs. Martin DeVries (Dorothy Thede); Mr. and Mrs. Lyall Albright (Ruth Seymour) and Mrs. Erla Carmean Souder of Lake City. Anna, AFS student from Sundsvall, Sweden, arrived August 12, 1976, in Lake City. Anna is the foreign daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gene Folkers. She flew to New York and continued by bus to Des Moines.

Eagles Echoes – Homecoming festivities will take place next weekend in Lake City and one senior girl will be crowned queen at skit night next Thursday. The candidates are: Lori Becke, Joyce Wiederin, Jo Winker, Lori Corderman and Janet Claiborne. It’s homecoming weekend again in Lake City and it’s time to crown a queen for the Nth time isn’t it? Not really. The tradition of crowning a queen is a fairly new one. The practice started in 1943 when the High School Pep Club, organized just a year earlier, with sponsors Miss Margaret Hink and Mrs. Sylvia Hatch decided to elect a homecoming queen. This year, on the 85th anniversary of Lake City High, the Alumni Association has chosen to honor all past homecoming queens. They are: 1943, Vera Mae Cole Doty; 1944, Rosemary Farber Richardson, 1945, Maxine Green Goins; 1946, Dorothy DeSart Cammack; 1947, Dorothy Hardy Burke; 1948, Mary Lou Campbell Morrison; 1949, Phyllis Moll Jones; 1950, Marlene Lasher Glasnapp; 1951, Rachel Bernau Meyer; 1952, Martha Stewart Dawson; 1953, Geneice Hennings Johnson; 1954, Glenda Holm Ibach; 1955, Diane Nichols Brown; 1956, Rosalie Mills Laumbach; 1957, Lenore Brinker Doering; 1958, Joan Nichols Muller; 1959, Kathy Owens Wine; 1960, Roberta Middleton Moore; 1961, Sondra Blanchfield Seward; 1962, Sue Zimbeck Pierce; 1963, Susan Elder True; 1964, Polly Tuvell Runke; 1965, Pam Streeter Dial;

1966, Crystal Streeter Steig; 1967, Lynn Grantham Redenius; 1968, Pat Nutter Albright; 1969, Kathy O’Tool Holm; 1970, Susan Van Ahn Allison; 1971, Donita O’Tool Peterson; 1972, Debbie Deuel; 1973, Starla Van Ahn Winter; 1974, Roxanne Green; 1975, Kim Finley; 1976, Brenda Toms.

September, 1926 90 Years Ago

The Cheheatru Camp Fire girls have shown their loyalty to the town by placing a new stove in the Fitch Memorial Park. This was a much needed commodity and will be appreciated by the tourists who stop at the park. One of the largest crowds ever to be assembled at the West View ball grounds saw the crack Lake City team win the kittenball tournament held here last Thursday. Early in the morning cars containing enthusiastic fans from here and surrounding towns poured into town and by the time the first game was scheduled to begin every available parking space was filled. Cress Cash Grocery: Peaberry Coffee, Special for Friday and Saturday, 38c per lb.; Pure Honey Cookies, Big Ones, Two Doz. 25c; Graham Crackers, 2 lb. Caddy, 35c. If all the reports are true, Rockwell City is soon to be in the throes of a movie war similar to the one waged in Manson some time ago. Last week, a petition bearing about two hundred and eighty signatures was

presented to the city council there asking that the members of that body take steps to enact an ordinance prohibiting Sunday movies. A statement signed by the pastors of the Rockwell City churches was also presented to the council. It was an attack on Sunday movies, labeling them, and motion pictures in general, as moral mistakes. It also said that most moving pictures were not fit to be shown to children and that they interfered with the church. Manager Tilton of the Tilton & Guthrie Players was in town Monday making arrangements for playing here three nights next week, under canvas. The company needs no introduction to Lake City folks as they opened the season here last spring and they are planning to store their equipment here again this winter. With all plans for the annual fall festival to be held here Tuesday practically complete, the celebration as outlined by the various committees promises to be the biggest in the annals of Lake City. The festivities are to commence promptly at 9 a.m. and from then on until late at night there will be something happening every minute. The morning will be spent mostly in agricultural pursuits. There will be the livestock display, a grand stock parade and the stock judging. At 1 o’clock there will be street sports consisting of various kinds of athletic events for both boys, girls, men and women. These will be followed by a speech by Hon. Claude R. Porter, democratic nominee for the

U. S. Senate. The remainder of the afternoon will be devoted to a football game between Lake City Tigers and the Odebolt Independents, and horse races. The evening’s entertainment will consist of wrestling matches, a hog calling contest, a charleston contest and last but not least the big dance at the Community building. Pete’s Peerless, one of the best orchestras in the state has been hired for last occasion and a large crowd of dance lovers is expected to attend. The Kitchen Cabinet – Foods for Fall Days – The fall days though “saddest of the year,� according to the poet bring vivid trips through the glowing woods and such a variety of good things to eat. Rich Waffles – Add the yolks of three eggs to two cupfuls of cream, one-fourth cupful of sugar, two cupfuls of flour, sifted with a teaspoon of salt. Stir to a smooth batter, then fold in the stiffly beaten whites Cook on a hot waffle iron and serve with maple sirup or powdered sugar. Never serve a hot sauce on a crisp waffle, it soaks in and makes it soft and unpalatable. The Lake City High School Homecoming this year will be held on Thanksgiving with a football game in the afternoon. The game in the afternoon will be followed by a banquet in the High School auditorium in the evening. The program will be on the same order as the one last year.

Over the years, the Calhoun County Historical Museum has had many people to thank for the support of this beautiful building and the valuable history that is connected to the county. It was the fall of 2015, when a surprise generous gift was given to the museum. It began in 1980, when Uyntha Parsons Duncan would visit her parents at Sunnyview Independent Living in Rockwell City. Gene and Ethel Parsons had moved into Sunnyview from Arizona and Rinard in 1980. Over the years, they had saved many items from Gene’s parent’s possessions. Slowly, the family started planning how to best preserve the items that were in John and Grace Parsons estate. Immediately, they thought of the Calhoun County Museum. Uyntha had been visiting the museum for several years. She often visited her Mother at Sunny Knoll

South Central Calhoun improved to 3-0 in Class 2A, District 7 football play and moved to 4-1 overall following an impressive 48-14 rout of Clarinda in Lake City for homecoming Friday, Sept. 23. SCC finished with 359 yards of total offense while Clarinda managed 217 total yards. The Titans had 167 yards rushing and 192 passing yards against the Cardinals. All of Clarinda’s yardage came on the ground. “It took us a while to get going, but we walked away with a homecoming win, and we’re happy about that,� said SCC head coach Bryan Case. “Credit Clarinda. They came out and ran something completely different from what we’ve seen on film, and our kids just needed to adjust. I thought our kids did a nice job of figuring out their scheme, and for the most part, held them in check. This was a big win for our program, because it sets up a game with Carroll Kuemper, for the potential lead in our district.� Kody Case led the Titans offense as he had six catches for 101 yards and three touchdowns receiving and he added seven carries for 35 yards on the ground and one rushing score. In addition, Ashten Halvorsen had nine carries for 64 yards and two touchdown runs for SCC. Teammate Tanner Macke also scored a

late touchdown for the Titans on the ground. SCC quarterback Hunter Muhlbauer had a solid night for the Titans as he was 10-for-12 passing with 192 yards and three touchdowns to go with no interceptions. Clarinda committed four fumbles in the contest as Brandon Assman, Case, A.J. Neubuam and Cody Schumacher each had fumble recoveries. Tyler Jones led the SCC defense with three solo tackles and nine assists while Brendan Henkelman had three solos and six assists, Case had five solos, Micah Lantz had three solos and three assists and Schumacher finished with nine assisted tackles. Macke and Joey Schrage both got credit for an assisted sack for SCC. The Titans led 14-0 at the end of the first period as Case scored the first points of the game on a 16-yard reception from Muhlbauer with 11:07 remaining in the first period. The point-after attempt was blocked. SCC’s second score of the game came on a Halvorsen 15-yard run and Case added the two-point conversion run. In the second quarter, Halvorsen scored his second rushing touchdown of the contest with 8:06 remaining on a four-yard run. Again the PAT kick was blocked by Clarinda. The Cardinals got on the board for the first time in the contest on at Do-

He had a 5-yard run with 7:21 left in the third and then caught a 13-yard reception from Muhlbauer with 2:47 remaining in the period. His third score of the third period came on a 49-yard reception from Muhlbauer with 34 seconds remain-

ing. SCC’s final score of the contest came on a Macke 2-yard run with 8:48 left in the contest. Clarinda scored its final touchdown on a 26yard run with 1:19 remaining in the contest. The Titans will face Kuemper at Carroll Friday, Sept. 30 as both teams are 3-0 in district play and 4-1 overall.
