D.A.R. dedicates grave marker in New Hartford cemetery By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review NEW HARTFORD — More than eight years after being damaged in the tornado that devastated southern Butler County, one of the oldest graves in New Hartford’s Oak Hill Cemetery has the honor it deserves. Ellie Senne, a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution (D.A.R.) Candle-Stick Chapter based out of Hampton made that so, with her project culminated Friday with the dedication of a repaired headstone marker for the daughter of a Revolutionary War soldier, Susanna Ensign. “As a Daughter of the American Revolution member of this society, we try to honor all our patriots and their families,” Senne said. “Hearing about

this from her great-great-great niece Karen Wilson, I felt I should go to the end of the road to honor this woman who was here and whose family was so much of this community.” Wilson, a member of the D.A.R. Chapter in Cedar Rapids, asked online after the tornado if somebody could check on her Aunt Susan’s headstone. Senne, from Allison, made the short trip to New Hartford to find nothing but devastation. “As I walked into the cemetery I had no idea where to start,” she said to the gathered dignitaries and interested parties. “As Karen only gave a name, I just stood there with tears to see all the broken stones, trees uprooted … but I had said I would check.

School District financial outlook solid for at least two years By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review PARKERSBURG — Aplington-Parkersburg School District Superintendent Jon Thompson had good news for the School Board Wednesday as he reported on the district’s financial outlook for this year and beyond. Thompson reported that the numbers look good for at least a couple of years and that cuts like those necessary a year ago look unlikely for the next couple of years. “I don’t think we’ll have to make cuts at all this year,” Thompson said. “And then a year from now we’ll probably want to consider offering early retirement, but I don’t think we’ll have to make cuts then either. We have the district, I hope in pretty good shape for the foreseeable future.” Thompson said the district spent a little less money a year ago than it anticipated and that the cuts approved by the School Board had done what they needed to do. “You’re never 100 percent sure on that, but I sure feel better about it today than I did back in December or January when we were setting it,” he said. “We really ended up better for this year than we thought we were going to be in December when we had to make the cuts,” Board President Kevin Schipper said. “You could argue that we could have cut less.” “I think we made a very good choice on how much we cut because if we could cut less we could potentially be ending next year around zero (unspent balance) again,” Thompson said. “You’d have to do it all over again.” Helping A-P’s budget situation is increasing enrollment. Last year’s certified enrollment climbed nearly 20 to 840.2 students. This year’s numbers are not official until Oct. 1, but Thompson said he expects the climb to be similar … possibly leading to the highest enrollment since he has been working in the School District. “We’re looking at over $100,000 of additional spending authority added to this fiscal year,” he said. “Nothing makes a (School) Board look better than an enrollment gain. It really helps and we’re going to be blessed, I believe here, to have two years in a row where we’ll have close to 20 new students in our district.” This year’s projected spending for the district is $9.25 million with revenue projected at $9.376 million, giving the District a $160,000 cushion. Last year’s revenue was $8.6 million. “That’s a significant jump,” Thompson said of the revenue increase. “We had an enrollment gain, we have allowable growth that the state sends us, they call it supplemental state aid now, that’s 2.25 percent based on our enrollment. TLC fund was nearly $260,000, that’s our teacher leadership program.” Thompson said dropout prevention funds were also up. The District is expecting a 9.6 percent budget carryover, which is near its 10 percent goal. “I always feel good right around that 10 percent carryover,” Thompson said. IN OTHER BUSINESS, the School Board approved a resolution to refinance bonds, saving the district about $46,000 per year. “That money will be available for things like busses and vans,” Thompson said. “It doesn’t really save the taxpayers money, but it allows us to do more with the money that they’re already providing from around the state.”

Record crest at Shell Rock River; lawmakers survey damage By MIRA SCHMITT-CASH Mid-America Publishing The Shell Rock River at both Greene and Shell Rock crested at a record 21.5 feet shortly after 2 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 23. The previous record of 20.4 feet occurred June 10, 2008. The governor team, U.S. and Iowa lawmakers gathered in Clarksville at 8:30 a.m. Saturday to survey the damage. Gov. Terry Branstad declared Butler County as a disaster area on Friday, and 12 other counties including Bremer, Chickasaw, Floyd, Franklin and Black Hawk. The purpose of the visit was to overview damages, reassess and plan for mitigation efforts, Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds said. Estimates of the amount of homes and businesses affected by flooding were preliminary on Monday morning. In Clarksville, 146 homes (out of about 540 residences in town) and 10 businesses were known affected, according to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s list, and a total of residences given by Councilman Jeff Kolb at the Saturday meeting. The northwest and south sides of town, nearest the river, were predominantly affected. In Greene, 125 homes and 12 businesses â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including the downtown â&#x20AC;&#x201D; were known affected Monday, County Emergency Management Director Mitch Nordmeyer said. In Shell Rock, some 40 homes and an unknown amount of businesses were affected, he said. Butler County Secondary Roads was estimating $2 million in damage, Nordmeyer said. Culverts were affected, but bridges could not be assessed until the water receded. Though no tally of culverts damaged was available early Monday, a washed out culvert left a gaping hole in the Rolling Prairie Recreational Trail near Midwest Manufacturing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Menard Inc. north of Shell Rock. The access road to the business and house at the corner remained underwater on Monday. Farmers were also impacted. Whereas farmers used to be able to take flooded crops for harvest; now there are caveats, said County Supervisor Tom Heidenwirth, who is a crop insurance agent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If (floodwater) goes over the ear, they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s under the ear, it goes into town,â&#x20AC;? Heidenwirth said. A corn crop near Packard was almost completely submerged, and many plants were standing in some water, as far south as Allison, though the landlocked county seat missed the brunt of the flooding. Crop loss claims go through the local Farm Service Agency, Branstad said. About 95 percent of farmers have crop insurance, Heidenwirth said. Even at 80 percent crop loss protection, farmers are just getting their money back, he told the governor. Damage followed a similar pattern to the wake of the 2008 floods, Kolb said. This is the first time since the 2011 flooding of the Missouri River that the Iowa National Guard had been activated, Branstad said. Guard liaison teams were sent to identify potential needs in affected communities. Schools at Clarksville and North Butler closed, and were set up as

emergency centers. In Clarksville, residents were advised not to flush or do laundry, and to use water as sparingly as possible, due to the potential to strain the sewer system, Kolb stated Friday. Portable restrooms were set up around town. Inflow and infiltration to the sanitary sewer was affected, however, â&#x20AC;&#x153;not the plant itself,â&#x20AC;? Kolb said. Butler County Rural Electric Cooperative updated customers on its Facebook page on Thursday, Sept. 22: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately, due to a transmission line owned by ITC, we have about 11 services in the Greene area that may be without power for more than one day.â&#x20AC;? On Friday, about 3 percent of Butler County residents served by MidAmerican Energy were without power, the company said on its website. By Monday, no outages were reported for Butler County MidAmerican customers. Residential customers may report an outage to MidAmerican Energy at 888-427-5632. Butler County REC members who lost power and have not called in to report the outage may call 319-2672726 or 888-267-2726. Black Hills Energyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency assistance line in the Allison area is 800694-8989. To restore electrical and gas service, customers whose homes received water that touched equipment or wiring were advised to call a city inspector. In Clarksville, call Kyle Wedeking at 641-228-0180. In Plainfield, call Chuck Carpenter at 319-415-4952. CLARKSVILLE: The American Red Cross set up to assist those displaced at Clarksville Community School. The city made arrangements with the American Red Cross to serve three meals a day at St. John Lutheran Church, which is accessible to those with disabilities, until further notice. Mealtimes are 8:30-10 a.m., 11:30 a .m. to 1 p.m. and 4-6 p.m. Two of the businesses had financial estimates of damage for the record of the city of Clarksville as of Monday morning. VTI Industries, doing business as Creative Composites, 302 S. Traer St., sustained an estimated $1 million damage, and the Verizon tower, 304 S. Traer St., received an estimated $500,000 damage. Roads were closed north, south (Highway 188) and west (C33/West Superior) into Clarksville. Highway 188 was closed between the Plainfield corner and town â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Flood Creek area â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and near the southernmost rail-

road tracks as the Shell Rock River overflowed at the historic crest. West Superior, also along the Shell Rock, was closed coming into town. A wall of sandbags near Lynwood Cemetery, half washed away, was visible on Saturday as floodwaters receded. Flooding on the northwest side of town prompted an evacuation of the 38 residents at Clarksville Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation, the 12 at Westside Assisted Living, and of Community Retirement Villages, Office Manager April Langfritz said. The senior housing includes the areas of North Hilton, North Ely and West Prospect. Power was lost for several hours on Thursday morning but was back on Thursday afternoon. On Thursday, families were informed of the plan to evacuate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the water hit Ely Street, that was the sign to take precautions to keep our residents safe,â&#x20AC;? Clarksville Skilled Nursing Office Manager April Langfritz said. Area care centers took evacuees, including Shell Rock Care, Center, Bartels Lutheran in Waverly, Waverly Health Center, Rehabilitation Center of Allison (ABCM Corp.) and the Denver Sunset Home. Independent living residents at the Retirement Villages were allowed to choose to where to evacuate. On the south side of town, water felled a log across Highway 188. The sediment line in front of Baking Memories CafĂŠ, 1203 S. Main, showed waters stopped a bit under the outdoor front counter, as state and local lawmakers surveyed the damage on Saturday morning. Kenny Bloker, of Bloker Masonry verbally estimated damages to be about $9,000 between his old building in front and the new one in back, including ruining the front buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overhead door. At 203 S. Sycamore Street, Clarksville, Wanda Mueller, family and friends were cleaning out her and husband Phillipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residence. Water had risen a few inches past their front threshold, destroying their finished basement and an estimated $50,000 or more of belongings but not reaching the first floor, which was up half a flight of stairs from the front door. The home also flooded in 2008. They moved in in 2006 after Wanda received her nursing license. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We might be gone. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to figure it out,â&#x20AC;? Mueller said. For now, they will be staying with her mother in Osage.

Schools from page 1 Thompson also received the Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blessing to deny a request from an out-of-district family to allow a school bus from a neighboring district to come into the A-P District to pick up a student. Thompson said other school districts have denied requests from Aplington-Parkersburg, though some agreements for such occurences are grandfathered in. During the nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual organizational meeting, the Board set all three local banks as its official depositories. Building principals will serve as Level I investigators and local police as Level II, and Ron Westerman was named the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s asbestos investigator. Julie Merfeld was reappointed as business manager and Darla Ubben was reappointed as Board secretary. Schipper was reelected as Board President while Jill Kalkwarf was reelected vice-president. During the regular meeting, the Board approved the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Title I application and appointed Kalkwarf at the Iowa Association of School Boards delegate. It also approved contracts for Nicole Jurgensen to be the Middle School cheerleading sponsor, Jill Luhring to serve as a cook, Anthony Weaton as assistant speech coach and Rachel Barrett as the basketball cheerleading coach.

By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News Review I have never been one to pay a lot of attention to presidential debates. To be honest, I tend to find them fairly boring and hard to follow. That said, I also tend to have my mind made up by this point ... this year I don’t. I am writing this Monday and plan to watch the presidential debate between Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump tonight. I apparently will not be the only person watching, as television networks expect ratings for tonight’s event to rival those of the Super Bowl. What will I be looking for? That’s really hard to say. I know where both candidates stand on most of the issues and find I both agree and disagree with both candidates on a variety of issues. And, let’s face it, all you will hear tonight is each candidate spin their stands so that as many people as possible will agree with them. That, in a nutshell, is what this is all about. What I’ll actually be looking for tonight is which candidate acts more presidential. If there is one thing that a lot of people agree on about this election it’s that we are picking between two flawed candidates. I like to say it’s a choice between a crook and a jerk (you can decide who is who). One of them will be president, and if polls are accurate it could be either one of them. Hillary is a far more experienced politician than Mr. Trump. Will she find ways to use that to her advantage? Donald Trump has a stronger personality and more charisma than Mrs. Clinton. Can he use that to his advantage in a one-on-one debate? What I do know is that both candidates will claim to have won. In truth, however, we will not know the true winner until Nov. 8. • • • Do you have any phobias? More specifically, do you have any phobias that might surprise other people? I asked myself that question during last Thursday’s Aplington-Parkersburg Homecoming Coronation ceremony as I watched a video where members of the junior class student body leadership excitedly awaken senior members of the Homecoming Court. It wasn’t so much what the students were doing that got to me (though I confess that my reaction might not have been one that could be shown to the world), it was what one student in particular was wearing that night. Now what, you might ask, might a student pulling what I think most people would agree was an extremely fun way to tell the seniors they were on the court be wearing to freak me out just a little? It was actually a simple thing ... a little phobia that I’ve never heard of from others ... what was at the very least giving me pause was that one of the students was wearing a mask. Maskophobia is most common in children though it can be quite serious in adults, leading to agoraphopic behavior, or fear to venture into unfamilar settings. Fortunately my fear of masks is extremely minor compared to these others ... I just get a little uncomfortable around certain types of masks and try to avoid those situations when I can. That said, phobias can be extremely scary and serious. I also have a fear of snakes that’s a little more pronounced than the maskophobia that I just described. Yet that fear seems a little worse when I’m watching television or a movie than in person. The funny thing about both my phobias is that I didn’t necessarily have them when I was younger. I had no problems with wearing a mask while trickor-treating or holding a snake during a demonstration when I was little. I cannot even tell you when my phobias developed, though I remember being a little uncomfortable as a child watching surgeons in their masks and remember being petrified when they showed a movie with a snake in it when I was in high school. Besides getting jumpy, however, my phobias are truly minor compared to those whose phobias really affect their lives. Even when I was having my most severe anxiety/depression issues less than 10 years ago, which seemed to be brought on due to job stress, I was at least able to function (though it was far from easy). A few people aren’t as lucky. One of my friends suffered from that kind of depression ... enough that I’ve unfortunately lost track of him. That’s sad because it was a person who was well-liked, even if he didn’t realize it.

Dike, New Hartford elementary schools to host dangerous intruder drills By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review DIKE — The Dike-New Hartford Community School District has announced that its elementary buildings in both New Hartford and Dike will host dangerous intruder drills later this week. New Hartford will drill the afternoon of Sept. 29 while Dike will hold its drill the afternoon of Sept. 30. Dike Elementary Principal Tom Textor said the drills will be similar to what the students currently do for fires and tornadoes.

“We have spoken with students and faculty about the purpose behind the drill and will follow up the drills with age-appropriate conversations about how things went,” Textor said in a letter to parents. “We have spoken with law enforcement and fire/rescue crews from our communities to alert them to our plans and invite them to participate in our drills if possible.” Textor added that signs will be posted outside to alert those who live close to the buildings that the drills are occurring.

Cleaning up afterwards Looks as though what I thought might be an early harvest, has taken a drastic turn and it may be weeks before some farmers are able to get into their fields after this latest attack by Mother Nature. Some reports from the Greene area relayed that fields were either flooded by rains or flattened by tornadoes. Many schools had to take a day or two off because of the rain damage done to their communities. One report stated the water levels of this storm met or exceeded those in 2008. One big difference is the fact we were dealing with plants in June of 2008 and now we are looking at crops that were only days from being harvested. According to the Iowa Department of Agriculture, “Flood damaged grain is considered adulterated under Chapter 198.7 of the Iowa Code. The Code prohibits the manufacturing or distribution of any food or feed from ingredients that are adulterated. There is the potential for a wide variety of contaminants to enter grain through flood waters, so any corn or soybeans that have been submerged are considered adulterated and must be destroyed.” Some questions farmers may be asking themselves are: 1) Can farmers use grain submerged by flooding? a. Flood soaked grain is adulterated and can’t be used for feed or food including use at an ethanol plant which uses distillers grains as feed. 2) How do farmers handle flood damaged grain? a. Flood damaged grain must be destroyed and not blended with undamaged grain. Options include mowing with a bat wing mower or a tillage (disk, chisel, etc.) method. The goal is to get as much corn as possible in contact with soil. 3) What about fields where the flood waters were not contaminated? a. Uncontrolled flood waters are generally considered contaminated. 4) What are the most common health concerns? a. Grain dust contains plant material and dust. It also can contain molds and spores, insect parts and debris, bacteria, chemicals or plant toxins. b. Exposure to low levels of grain dust often causes coughs, sore throats, nose and eye irritations and congestion c. Exposure to moldy and dusty grain are linked to two specific medical conditions – Farmer’s Lung and Organic Dust Toxic Syndrome 5) What symptoms should farmers watch for? a. Common ones include cough, headache, chest tightness, muscle aches, fever or generally not feeling well. If any of these are exhibited, visit with your medical provider as soon as possible. 6) How can farmers protect themselves when destroying crops? a) Avoid direct exposure to dust if at all possible. b) Use a NIOSH approved and certified N-95 respirator. c) Those with chronic respiratory health issues should avoid dust exposure. d) Contact your medical provider if exposed to large amounts of dust and you begin to feel ill.

Ask the Expert By JAKE BATES Manager, Parker Place Almost daily I receive questions regarding the wonderfully confusing world of long term care policies. My first piece of advice? Don’t be afraid of or avoid it! Educate yourself and take advantage of what you have paid for. I have complied a list of the basic questions you should have answers for. Being able to ask specific questions will make it easier for you to receive precise answers that will help you plan for your future. First of all, what does your policy cover? Many policies will cover long term nursing care, but what about assisted living and home health care? This is the most important and simple question you will want an answer for. Just because your policy was called “nursing home insurance” at one time, does not necessarily mean it will not cover other options. Secondly, how extensive is your policy coverage? Some policies have a flat daily rate, while others vary based on the level of care you receive. If you have a policy with adjusting rates, then you will receive more financial coverage to help compensate for the higher cost of care associated with long term nursing care. Flat daily rates will provide the same financial assistance regardless of the actual cost of your care. I strongly recommend individuals consider the benefits associated with assisted living that focus on wellness and preventive health care. The other option is searching for reactive health care which will most often be long term nursing. Next question, what happens to your monthly premium once your care begins? Many, but not all policies allow you stop paying your premiums once you begin utilizing your benefits. The elimination of your premiums will continue as long as you are receiving

care or services. Lastly, what is your policy cap? Some policies have a lifetime coverage, while others have a total coverage maximum. Having lifetime coverage may encourage you to seek care sooner, while having a coverage maximum may prolong your decision. Receiving care sooner could lead to the financial and health peace of mind you are seeking. All policies will have a “qualifying length of stay.” This is the time your insurance will require you to receive services before your benefits will take effect. During your qualifying length of stay, you can expect to pay out of pocket for your services. Qualifying lengths of stay are typically 30, 60 or 90 days. Do not let this deter you if you are in need of services. Neglecting your immediate needs can result in long term health consequences. Most people have paid their premiums for 20 to 30 years, so do not be afraid to collect what you have earned! You would not deny your pension or social security benefits after lifetime of contributions. You should not view your long term care insurance policy any differently! Policies are non-transferable and your children are not eligible for your benefits if you should not use them. Whether you have a long term care policy or not, now is a great time to find out how assisted living can help you live healthier and remain independent while avoiding a long term nursing home stay. To discuss your long term policy or to find out if assisted living is the best option for you, don’t hesitate to call Jake, Manager at Parker Place, at 319-346-9771 or stop in for a visit! We can take a look at your policy, set up a free comprehensive health assessment and help you determine your next steps!

Aplington to host Healthiest State Walk Aplington has been selected as one of the Butler County Sites for the Healthiest State Walk. Go to www. iowahealthieststate.com and click on the map for Butler County. Join us as we “Put our Foot First” starting at the Aplington City Park and walking for 30 minutes. Deb Prier and Denise Akkerman along with members of the Aplington Fire Department will lead the walkers from the park to downtown and back to the park. Everyone is encouraged to show up and walk with us, no registration is required. Any questions please contact Deb at City Hall 319-347-2425 Since 2011, hundreds of thousands of Iowans have taken part in the annual Healthiest State Walk. We’ve taken great steps together to promote our state’s well being, but there is much more work to be done. On October 5, thousands will again support Iowa’s efforts to become a healthier state with the goal of having at least one walk in all 99 counties.

In the past, the annual walk has been a 1k, or .62 miles. This year, we encourage Iowans to #StepItUp to 30 minutes of walking. This is in accordance with the US Surgeon General’s recommendation of 150 minutes of moderate physical activity each week. Thirty minutes of walking is a form of activity attainable for nearly all Iowans and achieves more than just physical health improvements. Walking is also proven to boost social and emotional health. The Healthiest State’s annual walk represents more than just 30 minutes of walking. It represents our dedication to the long-term goal of changing the lives of Iowans by making healthy choices easy. It shows how devoted we are to the future of the communities where we live and work. Visit www.iowahealthieststate.com to learn more about the Healthiest State Initiative . Together we can do something great for ourselves and for Iowans across the state.

Saturday morning workshop builds literacy excitement Nearly 60 participants from around the state participated in the second annual â&#x20AC;&#x153;Think In,â&#x20AC;? hosted at Grundy Center Elementary on Saturday, September 17. Elementary teachers, librarians, principals, and those interested in childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s literature learned from childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book guru, Mr. John Schumacher, also known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mr. Schu.â&#x20AC;? They also shared knowledge and experiences of literacy initiatives with other participants. Along with two featured presentations by Mr. Schu, guests were able to choose break out sessions to attend including: using picture books throughout the day, connecting with authors, literacy and makerspaces, websites and apps, literacy night ideas, and celebrating award winning books. The sessions were directed to be participant driven requiring participants bringing ideas to share. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Think In is really important because it brings teachers, librarians, and administrators together to share ways to feed the reading lives of children,â&#x20AC;?

Schumacher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The best part for me is finding out which books everyone is telling their students about.â&#x20AC;? The event marked Mr. Schumacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second year as featured speaker. Schumacher, a highly sought after speaker on the national level, has served as a teacher librarian, a member of the Newbery Selection Committee, Scholastic Reading Summit presenter, Rutgers University lecturer, and Ambassador of School Libraries for Scholastic Books. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mr. Schu really is the best at what he does,â&#x20AC;? Grundy Center Elementary Principal and former Aplington Elementary teacher Brian Sammons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He gets people so excited about books that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nearly impossible to leave his sessions and not want to carry the banner promoting childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s literature and getting kids excited about reading.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;When a Saturday morning conference gets you excited about Monday morning with your class, you know youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the right path,â&#x20AC;?

She took the plaque home and began looking for information on Ensign, specifically about why she had been honored. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since she died before the D.A.R. had been started she was never a member, but at some time Revolutionary Dames, in Waverly, placed this plaque on her headstone as a daughter of a Revolutionary soldier but also a granddaughter,â&#x20AC;? Senne said. She said the marker she had found

was broken off. Her headstone had also been damaged and was repaired before Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ceremony. A smaller marker was cemented to the right of the headstone with the larger, repaired plaque to the right of that. Senne received help locally for the project from Bob Dickson, who assisted with finding information about Ensign on a local level. The ceremony also featured D.A.R. leaders from across Iowa including several State Regent Lucinda Carter from Monroe and State Vice-Regent Marsha Hucke from Iowa City.

Greetings again! Schedules have prevented me from keeping up with submitting articles on a regular basis and even now this one will only be brief and for that I apologize. I trust you have enjoyed past selections on Parkersburg history and maybe have gained some new insight in the process. This article will be focused on some exciting opportunities that lay before the Historical Society as we push forward to continue making the Grand Wolf Mansion a show place for all to enjoy. When the Wolf house was constructed in 1895, the way of lighting and heating this home was quite different than what we are accustomed to today. Electricity was not available from a municipal power source in Parkersburg until 1898, when W.S. Mead built a power plant for $10,000. Prior to that time most homes used kerosene lamps with glass chimneys that had to be cleaned weekly along with candles. Depending on your economic status, even your lamps could get very elegant in their appearance. Gas lighting was also used in the homes of more affluent business people and was easier to maintain but could also be dangerous. Natural gas doesn’t actually have a smell that we think of because the utility company adds the odor to make you aware of its presence. In those days, that was not done so it would be easy for a house to have a gas leak and no one know about it until a match was struck with the devastating results being obvious. The lighting in the Wolf house was originally natural gas. Some of the old piping remains in the attic of the home to this day. With the dawn of electricity when Thomas A. Edison invented the light bulb in 1879, gas lighting quickly moved out of fashion and the new world of electric lights came on the scene. The Wolf’s were progressive people and soon had the house

wired for power. Perimeter or “Knob & Tube” wiring as it was called in those days was added to the home and used throughout until 1929, when the house was remodeled for the Community House and a new electrical service was installed with Romex wiring and conduit. The Knob & Tube system was eliminated but evidence still remains in the attic spaces and basement. Stories circulated and passed down that at the time of the renovation the contractors took many of the elegant fixtures of the home down and hauled them to the dump. We still have a couple of the original electric fixtures that were in the house at the time of renovation. Other fixtures throughout the home are either period fixtures from the era or from buildings downtown that were reclaimed and installed. Some fixtures are from the Art Deco period of the 1930’s and were installed at the time of the renovation. Heating this grand house was also an interesting adventure. Forced air heating was unknown and all interior heating used a gravity system dependent on the natural rise of heat to accomplish their needs. The house was heated with three fireplaces on the main floor and a large coke burning furnace in the basement. Fireplaces were located in the Parlor, the Sitting Room and in the Dining room. The evidence of the original locations is visible in the basement where the floors were altered to support the fire box on each fireplace. During renovations the fireplaces in these rooms were removed with the Parlor unit being relocated to the second floor and the room that would be used by the Women’s Club. The other being located in the entryway on the main floor. The third unit was dismantled and much of the leftover hardware was placed in the attic. Heat registers on the Main floor are still visible in the baseboards. They operate on a counter balance method

which has a cast iron grate affixed to one half of the damper door which holds the damper in the open position when pulled forward. If the room was warm enough, then the occupant simply lifts the door slightly and the damper rotates closed and stays closed. Only one damper still has all the pieces intact and is workable which is in the Parlor. The other dampers are still in place around the house but do not have the grate attached any longer to hold them closed. The ductwork in the basement was disconnected in 1929, when steam heat was introduced to the home at the time of renovation. So why is this of any importance? For those that are interested in preservation and restoration as we are in the Historical Society, it matters quite a lot. As we build plans for future projects in the continuing effort to renovate and restore the Wolf house to its former glory, research and understanding is necessary to make good decisions and choices as we move forward. Fortunately, we have copies of the 1929, renovation plans that were drawn by Mortimer B. Cleveland, Architect of Waterloo, Iowa who had offices on 4th Street. These plans have proved invaluable in helping to recreate some of what you see when touring the Historical Home as walls were returned to the original locations on the Main floor. Two of the original fireplaces have been restored and have been placed in the front foyer and dining room. While the unit in the foyer is very stunning and attractive, it technically isn’t in the right place. The unit in the Dining room is of cherry construction and belongs in the Parlor to match that woodwork leaving the third fireplace to be relocated in the Dining room. Only pieces remain of the third fireplace with two of the main components missing which are the cast iron fire box surround and the wooden out-

er decorative portion that houses the mirror above with the ornate columns flanking the sides. One would think it nearly impossible to ever find the missing iron work portions making it possible to put that unit back together and hope was given up long ago about that until just recently. Thanks to the internet and a little time “surfing”, the missing iron work was discovered in a shop on the west side of Chicago! It is exactly the same style and design as the two fireplaces that we have in the house already. An oak surround has also been discovered in Appleton, Wisconsin and is of the right vintage, style and has the correct fire box measurements. So we have an awesome opportunity which will probably not come our way again and for that we are reaching out to you our supporting friends. Funding is always an issue in a volunteer organization such as ours. We have truly been blessed to have very generous donors when projects come to the surface and this is one of those times that we are appealing to the public for your help. The cost to purchase the two separate pieces needed to reconstruct the third fireplace is $3500. We do not want to miss this singular opportunity as the chances of this coming around again are very remote. The beauty that this will restore to the Wolf Mansion will certainly be worth the effort. Wouldn’t you like to help us bring another piece of our “Grand Lady” back together again? All your gifts are tax deductible. If you would like to contribute to our project, you can send your donations to: Parkersburg Historical Society Box 142 Parkersburg, IA 50665 and designate it for the fireplace project. Thank you in advance for helping us to “Preserve the Past for the Future!”

Makerspaces introduced to A-P School District By NANCY FLANIGAN PARKERSBURG — This year, the Aplington Elementary & Aplington Parkersburg Middle School were rewarded with a Govenor’s STEM Grant for Makerspace on Wheels. The Science Center of Iowa Making STEM Connections program provided a kit, including tools, teacher resources and lessons to inspire the “makers mentality” in youth ages 5-14 through highly engaging, interactive and safe experiences. This program empowers participants to explore STEM principles and 21st Century Skills as they design, create and make. The Aplington Elementary & the

A-P Middle School are in need of some supplies for the Makerspaces including: • Sewing supplies (Material, buttons, thread, etc; sewing box to store the supplies; • Craft Supplies (glue sticks for hot glue gun; craft sticks; yarn; anything crafty); • 3D Printer and supplies • Legos; • Knex.

Extraordinary Influence in Ordinary Days My brother, sister and I listened as people shared with us how our mother had been an influence on their lives. We were at the mortuary during the visitation the night before our mother’s funeral. Mom had been involved in the church as a Sunday School teacher, Vacation Bible School teacher, a deaconess, and in many other ways. Now, at her death at the age of 90, people were helping us better grasp the legacy she left. I recall coming home from Vacation Bible School in the family car. Dad had left his farm work to come to the church and pick us up (Mom didn’t drive). VBS was almost always held the hottest week of the summer (or so it seemed) and Mom often had a splitting headache by the time we headed back out to the farm. I suspect she wondered if anything she had taught had really sunk in to her students, something she must also have wondered every Sunday morning when she finished teaching her Sunday School class. I also imagine she didn’t see great results as she served as a deaconess in the church. Yet, somehow, squeezing all of this into the ordinary days of cooking, washing clothes, gardening, and helping with the farm chores she managed to influence many lives for the good and for the Lord. If we wait for a great opportunity to do something really amazing we’ll most likely end up doing very little with our lives. Most of life is a string of ordinary days filled with seemingly little opportunities that can easily be overlooked. Great buildings have been built from a pile of ordinary bricks, it’s just that someone had to do the unglamorous work of putting them in place one brick at a time. What can make our lives extraordinary is doing something good, though not necessarily flashy, with the ordinary days. That’s the lesson I learned when I listened to the influence an Iowa farm wife, who happened to be my mother, had on the lives of so many others. “Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people...” (Galatians 6:10)

Iowa Bankers Association honors Kesley native with Leach Leadership Award JOHNSTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Iowa Bankers Association (IBA) presented James M. Schipper, a Kesley native and Aplington High School graduate, with the James A. Leach Leadership Award at the IBA Annual Convention on Sept. 19 at Veterans Memorial Auditorium. The IBA created the award in Congressman Leachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name in 2000 following his term as chairman of the U.S. House Banking Committee. The annual James A. Leach Leadership Award recognizes a distinguished Iowa banker who, like Congressman Leach, has made significant, life-long contributions to how Iowa banks serve Iowa communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;James Schipper has been a na-

tional leader for Iowa banking,â&#x20AC;? IBA president and CEO John Sorensen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Throughout his career as a banker, community leader and regulator, he was consistent in his desire to do whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best for the people of Iowa. His legacy of service is one that the next generation of Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community bankers can look up to and follow.â&#x20AC;? Schipper has more than 40 years of experience as a community banker. In 1987, he organized an investor group to establish Osceola Bancorporation and obtained a de novo charter for American State Bank. He served as the charter CEO of the bank for 22 years, helping the bank build assets over $185 million. He currently serves

as chairman of American State Bank. Schipper has been an active leader for the banking industry â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including serving as the superintendent of the Iowa Division of Banking from 2011 to 2015. He also has held many leadership roles with the IBA, including as a board member, treasurer and board chair in 2008. He has served on the American Bankers Association (ABA) Government Relations Council and Community Bankers Council. He served a two-year term on the Board of the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) and was co-chair of the CSBS Banker Advisory Board. He has also served on the board of directors for Community Bankers of

Iowa and SHAZAM, Inc. Schipper has also been an active leader in his community, serving as president of the Clarke County Development Corporation, as a trustee for the Clarke County Public Hospital and on countless community boards and organizations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jim has been the epitome of the successful community banker,â&#x20AC;? said Mick Guttau, chair of the award nominating committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He not only has a heart for serving his clients and community, but also his industry through his leadership roles with the IBA and the Iowa Division of Banking.â&#x20AC;?

How should student performance be measured? By SAM MILLER AEA 267 Chief Administrator Whether you are a parent of a student in one of Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public school districts or not, you probably remember hearing about the federal No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of 2001. No Child Left Behind was intended to bring greater accountability for student learning but was built around the belief that labeling low performing schools and withholding their resources would motivate them to improve their future performance. While NCLB had good intentions to raise student learning, the rigid law focused more on labeling schools than provide support and resources to hard-working educators to help stu-

dents achieve at higher rates. Recently, the federal government introduced the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), which replaces NCLB and will go into effect with the 2017-18 school year. The new law keeps expectations high for schools, but provides states with more flexibility in deciding how much test scores will factor into low performance and what supports to put into place when goals are not met. This is good news for those who believe that other ways of measuring student learning, beyond just standardized tests, should also play a role in deciding if a school or school district is succeeding. It also gets away from a â&#x20AC;&#x153;shame and blameâ&#x20AC;? mentality of improvement that we know doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work.

In mid-August, I was appointed to a statewide advisory committee by the Iowa Department of Education, to help develop Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to ESSA. Our task will be to advise the plan for how Iowa will meet the new requirements in a way that pairs accountability for learning with the supports needed to improve student achievement. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m joined by other school leaders from around the state including representatives from the Iowa Association of School Boards, School Administrators of Iowa, and the Iowa State Education Association. As a parent and/or a taxpayer I encourage you to keep an eye on this work. Later this fall, the Iowa Department of Education will announce

opportunities for parents and other education stakeholders to have their voices heard regarding how to measure the success of Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s students under ESSA.

Public Notice Public Notice OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS A-P SCHOOL DISTRICT SPECIAL MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 2016 MINUTES Meeting called to order by President Schipper at 7:51 p.m. Members present: Schipper, Truax, Ellis, Schneiderman, Kalkwarf Members absent: none Also present: Superintendent Thompson, Secretary Choate, Principals May, Thomas and Buseman. Moved by Kalkwarf, seconded by Ellis and carried unanimously to approve the agenda. The Administration and Board reviewed past practices in how the district has reported standardized assessment data to both the Board and our public. It was noted that much of the reported data looks at the percentage of students who were reaching proficiency and the overall average score by grade level. These scores have traditionally been very positive indicators for A-P Schools. Administration then reviewed efforts to create a new method of reporting assessment data following last year's School Report Card. The report card continues to include proficiency levels, but places a greater emphasis on individual student growth and the closing of the achieve-

ment gap between students with Individual Educational Plans and/or free and reduced lunch when compared to students who do not have Individual Educational Plans and are not receiving free or reduced lunches. It is within these areas that the school will focus attention on over the next few years and will be reporting progress to the Board. Administration then shared data that looked at our assessment results by ability groups. Individuals and ability level group progress from year to year will be tracked and reported to the School Board. It was also noted that our annual report would include Early Literacy Reading Growth, ACT test results, participation rate of students in activities, college credits earned by A-P students while in high school, and the percentage of our students attending college. It was the consensus of all at the meeting that the most important assessment data and the data that helps our students grow the most academically is acquired daily and weekly by the teachers in the classrooms. This formative data, and its use , will remain our number one priority. Moved by Kalkwarf, seconded by Truax and carried unanimously to adjourn. Meeting adjourned at 9:44 p.m.

Public Notice OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS A-P SCHOOL DISTRICT REGULAR MEETING SEPTEMBER 21, 2016 MINUTES Meeting called to order by President Schipper at 6:46 p.m. Members present: Schipper, Truax, Ellis, Schneiderman, Kalkwarf Members absent: none Also present: Superintendent Thompson, Secretary Choate, Business Manager Merfeld and John Jensen Moved by Kalkwarf, seconded by Truax and carried unanimously to approve the amended agenda, adding Approval of Bond Refinancing documents as item 3b. Board Member Kalkwarf introduced the following Resolution entitled, “Resolution appointing paying agent, bond registrar, and transfer agent, approving the paying agent, bond registrar and transfer agent agreement and authorizing the execution of same” and moved its adoption. Board Member Truax seconded the motion to adopt. The roll was called and the vote was all ayes. The President declared the Resolution adopted. Board Member Schneiderman moved that the form of Tax Exemption Certificate be place on file and approved. Board Member Ellis seconded the motion. The roll was called the vote was all ayes. The President declared the Motion adopted. Board Member Ellis introduced the following Resolutions entitled “Resolution authorizing and providing for the terms of issuance and securing the payment of $4,701,000 school infrastructure sales, services and use tax revenue refunding bonds, series 2016, of the AplingtonParkersburg Community School District, State of Iowa, under the provisions of chapters 423E and 423F of the code of Iowa, and providing for a method of payment of said bonds,” and moved its adoption. Board Member Truax seconded the motion to adopt. The roll was called and the vote was all ayes. The President declared the Resolution adopted. Moved by Truax, seconded by Schneiderman and carried unanimously to approve the minutes of the August 15, 2016, regular meeting and the September 8, 2016, special meeting. Moved by Kalkwarf, seconded by Ellis and carried unanimously to approve the 2016-17 Title I Application in the amount of $65,603. Moved by Truax, seconded by Ellis and carried unanimously to appoint Kalkwarf to be the district representative to the Annual IASB Convention in November. Superintendent Thompson reported on the fol-

lowing items: • With the end of our fiscal 2015-16 year numbers in, we were able to finish better than anticipated by spending 97% of our budgeted total. We still realized deficient spending, but that trend has been reversed by a combination of budget cuts and increased revenues for the 2016-17 school year. • A-P Schools are on track to spend less than our revenues for the 2016-17 school year and we project an enrollment increase which will also help our overall budget picture. We anticipate seeing an increase in our carryover dollars following this school year with no need for budget cuts over the next two years. • A group of local students and adults have asked about using the ‘Falcon” name for a trap shooting club they hope to organize. The school has no problems with this but it should be noted that this club is not affiliated with the school district in any way. • The Thomas Family Foundation will be hosting a student leadership academy at the high school on October 6th. This event is completely booked and A-P High School will be hosting 500 students from around the state of Iowa. • Mr. Thompson shared a request from a family open enrolled out of our district to allow another district‛s bus into our district to pick up their children. As is the practice, this request will be denied. • Dave Schneiderman reported on a “Falcon Pride Club” that he has helped to organize. The club is a way for local businesses to advertise and support the school district directly without having to work with outside vendors who are often from out of state. This is a program that should benefit the school and business community while maximizing dollars and keeping all funds local. The board reviewed the financial reports and accounts payable for the operating, activity, school house, lunch and BASC funds and the treasurer‛s report. Moved by Truax, seconded by Ellis and carried unanimously to approve the financial reports. There were no resignations. Moved by Ellis, seconded by Kalkwarf and carried unanimously to offer the following contracts: • Nicole Jurgersen - Middle School Cheer Sponsor • Judy Luhring - Aplington Cook, $8.20/hr • Anthony Weaton - Assistant Speech Coach • Rachel Barrett - High School Basketball Cheer Coach Moved by Kalkwarf, seconded by Ellis and carried unanimously to adjourn. Meeting adjourned at 7:38 p.m.

Therefore his favorite food is chicken nuggets in the shape of a dinosaur, his favorite book is about dinosaurs, and he likes to write about dinosaurs in school! After school you can find Ty watching his favorite movie Ghost Busters or at his grandma’s house playing baseball. But his grandma isn’t a very good pitcher so he doesn’t get to hit the ball much. When he grows up he wants to be farmer who drives John Deere tractors.

Tigers spoil A-P Homecoming celebration By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review PARKERSBURG — South Hardin senior Dane Butler stopped Aplington-Parkersburg running back Sam Thorn short of the goal line of the game’s final play as the Tigers edged Aplington-Parkersburg in a back-andforth battle at Ed Thomas Field in Parkersburg. The Tigers (3-2 overall, 2-1 in Class 2A, District 3) led 21-7 in the second half yet needed a touchdown and twopoint conversion in overtime just to extend the game. They took the lead in the second overtime period and then stuffed A-P’s attempt to win the game with a conversion run. “Dane Butler is having a tremendous senior season and came up and made a big play, a big fill at the end,” South Hardin coach Barry Scott said. “At some point one team was going to do that and one team wasn’t, so I was glad we came out on top,” Scott said. “I’m proud of those boys for hanging in there, (they showed) a lot of resiliency. We certainly have an unbelievable amount of respect for A-P. It certainly is quite a place to get a win.” South Hardin’s comeback came after Aplington-Parkersburg rallied from a 21-7 halftime deficit to tie the score in the third quarter. The Falcons took the lead in overtime but could not get a key stop. “I thought the effort was good, especially in the second half,” Aplington-Parkersburg coach Alex Pollock

said. “We just made too many mistakes and that’s been our deal for the whole year. At some point it’s going to click, we’re kind of running out of chances here, but we did fight hard.” The Falcons (2-3 overall, 1-2 in District 3) had a chance to win the game at the end of regulation only to be turned back without a chance to make a winning play. Sophomore quarterback Carter Cuvelier completed a 12-yard pass to Chase Kling at the 16-yardline with four seconds left. As time ran off the clock, he heaved the ball to the end zone where the intended receiver was interfered with, giving A-P one untimed down from its 9-yard line. Whistles blew as South Hardin jumped offsides on Jacob Abbas’ game-winning field goal attempt. The Falcons then lined up to go for a winning touchdown, only to be called for a penalty of its own when an offensive lineman left the line of scrimmage early. Officials conferred for more than a minute before determining that the penalty against the Falcons counted as their play. “We were under the impression that, no matter what, there was still one untimed down because there was a defensive penalty,” Pollock said. “(The official) said because the next penalty was on us, that was the untimed down. I’ll have to look at (the rule book) … I don’t know for sure. If that’s the case, that’s on me.” APLINGTON-PARKERBURG LOST despite out-gaining the Tigers

by 169 yards. A blocked punt, fumble and botched coverage on a third-andlong play, however, set up South Hardin first-half touchdowns. “When you make that many mistakes you’re going to get tripped up,” Pollock said. “We’re not the type of team that can come out flat right now, we’ve got to have that energy for a full game and we have not had that the whole year. We’re continuing to try to figure out what makes us click.” South Hardin won the game with a passing game that had not been firing on all cylinders through the first four games of the season. Junior quarterback Kolten Rewoldt completed 5-of10 passes for 131 yards and a pair of overtime touchdown passes to his twin brother Kevin Rewoldt. “Our passing game has been statistically stagnant and it hurt us in the first four games, but we weren’t going to give up on it and we knew it would come around,” Scott said. “We had catchable balls and we didn’t drop too many tonight, which was a good deal.” The passing game was key, as the Tigers ran for just 101 yards on 43 carries. Logan Spindler paced SH with 39 yards while Jeff Thompson ran for 37 yards. A-P was fairly balanced, rushing for 290 yards and throwing for 110. Halfback Sam Thorn led the Falcons with 147 yards while wingbacks Riley Barrett and Kling collected 54 and 52 yards, respectively, and fullback Lincoln ran for 36 yards. Cuvelier com-

pleted 10-of-20 passes for 110 yards and was not intercepted. THE FALCONS TOOK AN early lead after marching 68 yards on the opening drive of the game, with Lincoln Johnson going the final three yards for the touchdown and Abbas kicking the point after. South Hardin tied the game eight minutes later after a blocked punt set up a 23-yard drive capped by Ryan Duchane’s six-yard scoring run. Michael Halsey tied the game with his point-after kick. The game remained tied until the waning minutes of the first half. A 78-yard Kolten Rewoldt-to-Ty Cook pass on third-and-long from inside the Tiger 20 set up Thompson’s 1-yard run that game South Hardin the lead. Moments later Thompson, now playing defense, stripped the ball from an Aplington-Parkersburg receiver and returned it to the Falcon 22. One play later Spindler took the ball to the end zone on a counter play, giving the Tigers a 21-7 halftime cushion. A-P scored the first two times it had the ball in the second half, with Cuvelier’s conversion pass to Kling tying the score with 1 minute, 31 seconds to go in the third quarter. The Falcons struck first in overtime on a Kling five-yard scoring run and Cuvelier conversion pass to Kling. South Hardin tied it as the Rewoldt brothers hooked up on a nine-yard scoring pass and ensuring conversion pass. The Rewoldts hooked up again on
