Election 2016 Preview Auditor faces new challenger in nonparty candidate All Butler County eligible voters will have the choice for auditor on the General Election ballot, Nov. 8 at the polls or earlier at the courthouse. The choice is between incumbent Auditor Lizbeth Williams of Greene, who won the Republican primary this summer, or Leslie Groen, of rural Allison, who was nominated by petition. Williams is seeking re-election to the Office of Butler County Auditor. She focused on accounting and business management at North Iowa Area Community College and Hamilton Business College and has been employed in marketing research, grant writing and office management and was employed in the Auditor’s Office prior to being elected in 2012. “All of which afforded me the skill set necessary for the Office of County Auditor I now hold,” Williams said. Initially, Williams decided to run for auditor after having worked in the office as the elections clerk and was processing mental health claims for the region. “I gained experience and also exposure to the job responsibilities of the auditor, and was encouraged by the previous auditor and my peers to run for this office,” Williams said. “Serving as County Auditor for the past nearly four years has been a huge learning experience, and I continue to learn something new every day,” Williams said. “I really enjoy the duties and challenges of the position as well as the people I work with and represent.” If re-elected, she says, “I will continue to utilize my experience with policy and budgeting to help ensure the county maintains compliance with Iowa Code while also meeting the needs of its constituents. I will strive to maintain compliance, accountability and transparency in regard to all aspects of county government.” Williams can be reached at lwilliams@butlercoiowa.org or by calling

Butler County Republican Party nominee, and current Auditor Liz Williams, faces a new contestant nominated by petition in the General Election on Nov. 8 (after winning a primary challenge against another candidate, who did not seek nomination by petition in the fall). the Auditor’s Office at 319-267-2670, Monday through Friday. Her Facebook page is, Butler County Auditor, Lizbeth Williams. LESLIE GROEN (nominated by petition, of Hickory Avenue, Allison) has been a business professional for 20 years, including as an internal bank auditor, as well as having held positions of senior customer service representative for brokerage and insurance products, annuity and pension specialist, and interior designer. Groen believes this year’s political activity has added to distrust in government, and she said: “I believe communication is key in getting taxpayers back on track towards building trust in our government… On the flipside, I want government to get back to respecting the taxpayer.” She said budgeting decisions “should always consider the taxpayers’ dollars being used to run government” and that this would open communication regarding budgeting. Her experiences likely to transfer to the auditor position include conducting internal bank audits and reporting results, creating and conducting employee training programs, conducting

Aplington-Parkersburg shows small enrollment increase By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review PARKERSBURG — The Aplington-Parkersburg Community School District showed a minimal certified enrollment gain for the 2016-17 school year. That was the report from Superinendent Jon Thompson last Monday as the A-P School Board hosted its monthly meeting. Thompson said the district was up five students, a lower number than the 15 he had estimated at the previous meeting. “There were less open enrolled students out than I thought, which would have added to our enrollment,” he said. “We have more total kids in the district but our total count went up five.” Thompson admitted that he wasn’t quite sure why there was a difference between his estimate and the actual number. “I checked it four or five times and it’s all electronic, so there’s no mistake there,” he said. “But that’s still positive. It’s the highest our enrollment has been for a long time – maybe since the late 1990s – so that’s good.” The Board also approved working with the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVIS) to help bring foreign exchange students to the district. Thompson said High School Principal Aaron Thomas had spoken to other schools that have used the group and liked what he had heard. “Sometimes kids will stay multiple years; sometimes they come from poor parts of the world and couldn’t afford to do something like this otherwise,” Thompson said. “It’s something Mr. Thomas greatly supports. “A lot of the kids we’ve had in the past … come from pretty well-to-do families and I think (the new program bringing different types of kids) is just something (Thomas) is interested in,” Thompson said. There is no cost to the school and the school would not be required to

take students that SEVIS brings to it. Thompson said money is available to pay the application fee to the program. There was brief discussion of the District’s new policy designed to keep spending closer to what is budgeted than it has been in the past. “We had the conversations during the year that I was hoping we would come in at about 98 percent of what we had budgeted and I always thought that was an odd thing,” Thompson said. “So there was, maybe, too high of a budget set. So we took a look at the anticipated spending this year, and that’s difficult because fuel and the prices of different things can change during the year, and so we tried to set the budget at what we think things will cost us this year.” Thompson said the idea is to spend 100 percent of the budget while adding that the District will track spending and make adjustments if it needs to. “If we get too far out of kilter halfway through the year or three-quarters of the way through the year you might have to cut off all discretionary spending or something along those lines,” he said. Thompson said he thinks the District will like the new policy though it could take time to get used to. The Board approved language changes to several Board policies, a lot of which Thompson said is the result of the change from No Child Left Behind policies to Every Student Succeeds Act policies, including the addition of coaches and peer educators to the list of those required to be mandatory reporters. There was also a change to the District’s weapons policy making the superintendent the person who can grant exemptions to the policy. The Board approved a starting wage of $8.20 per hour for substitute cooks, the same as regular cooks make. Thompson said it has been difficult to find substitute cooks at the previous rate of $7.30 per hour.

Leslie Groen, nominated by petition to run for Office of Butler County Auditor, is on the ballot in the Nov. 8 General Election. committee meetings and maintaining minutes, handling escalated customer service situations, submitting design bids, managing vendors, and maintaining website content. Groen said her top three work-ethic priorities are communication, integrity and collaboration. Communication – Though she has seen improvements in the past few years, “We have to get better about communicating government spending, programs available, services available (in person and online), elections process education, etc.,” Groen said. She recommended focusing on more and timely content on the county website, and to utilize social media. Integrity – “My number one priority has always been to raise four confident, caring, honest, and hardworking people who make the world a better place than it was before them,” Groen said, referring to her children. “In doing so, I try each day to hold myself to the following standards: 1. Doing what is right, not just what’s right for me. 2. Standing up for what I believe while and working with others for a common goal. 3. Admitting when I am wrong and asking for help. 4. Treating everyone the way I wish to be treated.”

A-P eighth-graders get unique court experience By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review APLINGTON — For most people, a trip to court is a traumatic event. Yet for Aplington-Parkersburg eighth-graders it became a learning experience. Earlier this month Aplington-Parkersburg eighth-graders visited the Iowa Supreme Court as part of Constitution Day activities. There they observed the Court hearing arguments in a case involving the Water Works Trustees of the City of Des Moines against the Boards of Supervisors in three north central Iowa counties. Teacher Patty Hoff, who coordinated the trip, said this was a unique opportunity for the students and one she jumped at when she saw it. “I thought, ‘I’ll probably never have a chance to see this or have the kids see this again,’ so we were fortunate enough to be chosen and we went down and watched.” During the session that the students watched, the Supreme Court justices were making decisions on some questions from lower courts. “From what I understand, the low-

er court needed some questions answered before they could make their decision,” Hoff said. “They put some questions to the Iowa Supreme Court saying ‘We need some guidance on this,” and the Iowa Supreme Court then said each side needs to bring us their oral arguments before we will make our decision that will help the lower court make their decision.” Students Reagan Schneiderman and Kaden Campbell talked about the experience, noting that they were surprised by some of the vocabulary used by the lawyers and how difficult it was to understand at times. They were also caught off guard by the fact that there were several judges questioning the lawyers instead of the traditional court setup with each side presenting arguments in front of a single judge. “The kids were surprised that (the lawyers) only had a certain amount of time to give their arguments and then a light turns on and their time is done,” Hoff said. “They thought that was fascinating because we didn’t know what to expect; none of us had ever seen that before.”

By JAKE BATES Manager, Parker Place There are many different options that an assisted living community can offer you. Many assisted living communities will provide three meals a day, housekeeping and transportation to shopping, medical appointments and any other appointments you may have. They will also offer medication management if needed, security measures and health care staff to help with scheduled needs as well other issues that may arise. Assisted living communities will provide health and wellness programs and many other social activities such as exercise programs with certified trainers, music therapy and more. We get to know our residents on a person-

al level, not just on a medical basis. This means that everything from our meals to our activities is selected and driven by our resident population. It is a common misconception that “assisted living” and “nursing home” are synonymous, when, in fact, they are very different. In assisted living, you have your own private apartment decorated with your items and set to a temperature you desire. You are able to come and go as you please, have overnight visitors and take part in only the activities you choose. If you have any questions about assisted living or Parker Place Assisted Living and Memory Care please call Jake Bates, Manager, at 319-346-9771. At Parker Place… You’re family!

Turning 65 and have questions about Medicare?

Charlie Ballhagen of New Hartford and Lilly Foxen of Parkersburg were excited to win the bikes that were donated by Monarch Therapy for Kid Fest.

Visions of Well-Being hosts annual Kid Fest Butler County Visions of Well-Being held their annual Kid Fest event Sept. 17 at the Butler County Fairgrounds in Allison. There were 66 families and a total of 222 adults and children who participated in the event, which is a slight increase from the previous year. There were also 17 organizations that participated in the event. The organizations that participated in Kid Fest provided information about resources for families with children in Butler County, as well as fun activities for the kids. The agencies and organizations that participated in the event are: Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Boy Scouts (Clarksville), Butler County Libraries, Butler County Public Health-Homes with Healthy Children & Tobacco Prevention, Child Care Resource & Referral, Community Partnerships for Protecting Children/Together 4 Families, Early Access, First Five, ISU Extension/4-H, Lion’s Club-Allison (Vision Screening), Lutheran Services in Iowa-Families Together II, MidWestOne Bank, North Iowa Community Action/ISmile, Operation Threshold-Partners for Healthy Families/NEST, Parkersburg Fire Department, Pathways Behavioral Services-Prevention, and Waverly Health Center. Each family attending the event received Butler Bucks and two lucky children won bikes. The bikes were generously donated by Rusty Eddy of Monarch Therapy serving Parkersburg and the surrounding counties. Rusty Eddy with Monarch Therapy Services has been a supporter of the Butler County Kid Fest for a number of years. Lilly Foxen of Parkersburg won the little girl’s bike, and Charlie Ballhagen of New Hartford won the little boy’s bike. In addition to the information, activities, and door prizes, the children could also have customized balloon

animals created just for them. After the activities, the participants were served a lunch that consisted of hot dogs, chips, cookies, malts and bottled water. Once again, Butler County Visions of Well-Being group members heard lots of positive comments from families during the event. Butler County Visions of Well-Being President, Shawna Lebeck, commented that the event has continued to be a success as a result of the collaboration among the local agencies and organizations that serve families with children, as well as the community support that is received. Special thanks goes to the Butler County Visions of Well-Being Group members for their help in planning and organizing the event; to the Together 4 Families-Community Partnership for Protecting Children for providing financial support; to J&C Grocery for the cookies; Mary Johnson of Clarksville for malt machine rental, to MidWestOne for the paper products; to those who shared resource information and provided activities for the children; to the Butler County Fair Board for allowing the use of the Butler County Fairgrounds for the event; and to the community volunteers (local adults and students from North Butler and Clarksville) who helped register participants, took pictures during the event, assisted with the completion of participant surveys, distributed door prizes and served the food. This event would not be possible without all the support! Now that Kid Fest is done for the year, the group is anxious to move on to their next community project, which is Christmas Cheer. Community support and local donations will be needed to assist Butler County households in need during the holiday season. More details regarding the project will be available in the near future.

Eigth-graders from page 1 Hoff said the day was very formal, from the kids needing to pass through a metal detector entering the building to everyone needing to rise as the judges came into the court. “It was just a whole neat formal experience that I’m sure the kids will never get to have again,� she said. In addition to hearing arguments in the case, Judge Thomas Bower of Cedar Falls took time with the students to answer their questions. Hoff said the field trip ties in with both the seventh- and eighth-grade social studies curriculum, which includes civics chapters. “We are learning about the different branches of the government at the local, state and federal levels and learning what each of those branches do and some of their duties and responsibilities,� she said. “So watching the Iowa Supreme Court fits in with talking about the judicial branches and how there are checks and balances and how you see different levels of government helping each other out like the lower court with asking the higher court with some decisions.

At the monthly meeting of the Pakersburg Chamber of Commerce, it was decided that stores will be open Thursday nights, starting Nov. 2. The reason for the decision was because the community survey conducted by the Parkersburg Progressive Women showed that 49 percent of the people wanted the stores open this night. Virgil Schmitt, a 4-H and Youth leader in Butler and Grundy Counties for the past three and one-half years, will be leaving that position shortly to return to school. Schmitt will be starting a Master Degree program at Iowa State University Nov. 1. The 1976 Hobby Fair, which is sponsored by the Butler County Farm Bureau Women, will be held Wednesday, Nov. 3 in the basement of the Farm Bureau Building in Allison. THere will be many interesting displays for all to see and a good way to start your CHristmas shopping.

FIFTY YEARS AGO October 26, 1966 This Thursday the new car wash owned by the Simons Brothers opens at a location west of Palmers Super Market. There will be someone at the car wash all day for those interested in using or seeing the new plan in operation. Mansel Ocheltree of Parkersburg picked his entry in the Master Corn Grower contest Oct. 17, 1966. The yield was 181.3 bushels of 21.7 percent moisture corn. Harold Anderson, F.F.A. teacher at Wellsburg High School, was the official of the contest. The application for awards has been filed at Ames and the results are as follows based on 15 percent moisture corn: 1.35 acre picked across plot, picking two rows, Jean Schwerdtfeger has announced the grand opening of her flower shop in Parkersburg. Free coffee and donuts will be served all day and in the evening. Everyone is invited to attend the grand opening of one of Parkersburg’s newest services - cards, gifts and flowers. Pictured above is a big walleye (7 pounds or 9 pounds depending on who tells it) that Arnold Lindaman, Bruno Bronsema and Hank Cramer caught on a string that included some smaller northerns. Naturally they report recent catches have been reported of 6 or 7 pound walleyes and larger northern.

Don’t tempt fate...

By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News Review I’ve been really fortunate in my life. I have loving parents, a great relationship with my girlfriend and her family, and a career I enjoy. I also have an emotional makeup that makes staying positive absolutely essential … I just don’t deal with negative things all that well. Through my life one of the negative things I have not had to deal with much is death. I wasn’t all that close to my grandparents, mainly due to our living in different parts of the country, so their deaths didn’t hit me as hard as the death of someone closer to you would. I had also never lost a close friend. Thus the recent death of a man who was my best friend for several years hit me pretty hard … certainly harder than I let on. It was a couple of Fridays ago that I learned of his passing. Rich had fallen ill a couple of weeks before and had surgery at the hospital in Iowa City. At the time things didn’t seem to me to be all that serious … Rich would pull through like he had with countless other health scares. This time, though, it wasn’t to be. The afternoon he died, after I had gotten over the initial shock, I looked around my office at some of the things on my wall and on my shelf. There was a baseball we had gotten when we saw the Iowa Cubs play together and a few of the bobbleheads from our baseball trips to Milwaukee. And there, still sitting in a box I brought with me when I came to The Eclipse from The Grundy Register, was one of my favorite mementos of a trip with Rich … a caricature of baseball great Bob Feller. Rich was the first person to befriend me when I moved to Oelwein knowing absolutely nobody. We had a lot of similar interests — trains, baseball and youth sports — and we were both single men who enjoyed taking road trips. Our personalities occasionally clashed – Rich could and would talk to anybody and say anything, I’m a little more reserved – but we had a lot of fun. More often than not, our trips revolved around watching trains. Rich had grown up when the Chicago Great Western Railroad was a big deal in Oelwein … the house that he and his parents lived in was near an overlook to the railroad’s classification yard. If I had a dollar for every train that Rich and I watched I would be a wealthy man. We went to Cedar Rapids, Clinton, Iowa City, Des Moines, Boone, Milwaukee, Wis., Rochelle, Ill., Winona, Minn. … all to see different kinds of freight trains. One of our favorite spots was Marquette, where there was a great place to have a brat and a cold beer or lemonade. There was also a county park across the river, just outside Prairie du Chien, Wis. where we would sit for hours. It certainly seemed fitting that just minutes after I learned of Rich’s death, as I sat trying to compose myself in Parkersburg’s Depot Park, a freight train came rumbling by. Another of our favorite places to go was Veteran’s Memorial Stadium in Cedar Rapids to see the Cedar Rapids Kernels baseball team play. I’ve lost count of how many future Angels and Twins Major Leaguers that the two of us saw together, though one will always stand out. Rich had befriended Kernels general manager Jack Roeder enough that he would come talk to us before games. Jack knew I was a sports writer and pointed to a young man who he described as being the next Mickey Mantle. All Mike Trout did that night was go 3-for-4 with a double, a triple, a stolen base and a couple of runs scored. By the end of the next season Trout had been called up to the big leagues and since then he’s built a career that has an eventual trip to the Baseball Hall of Fame written all over it. Baseball was a big deal for Rich … so much so that he ran a local Pony League team called the King’s Knights for more than 25 years. He and I also began what has become a traditional summer trip to Milwaukee to see a game. It started with just Rich and I visiting a friend there and seeing a game. Eventually the trip grew to as many as six of us. Even since Rich’s health deteriorated to the point where he couldn’t come with us to Milwaukee, we’ve continued. Our baseball bunch — Larry, Jim, Dale and I — served as casket bearers at Rich’s service. Once we got back to the church and sat down for lunch, we led everyone in a rendition of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.” Rich would have liked that. Rich loved the Cubs. One of the few regrets I have for Rich is that he died before seeing them win the pennant. As I thought about Rich’s love for the Cubs, a poem turned song written by the late Steve Goodman titled “A Dying Cub Fan’s Last Request” comes to mind. The song is too long to share here, but I thought of it a lot as I was thinking about my close friend. As I noted earlier, this is the first time I’ve lost a close friend so I really didn’t know how I would handle it. I shed a few tears upon learning of his death and thought of him a lot in the days leading up to his funeral. I still think of him as I do things we would do together. I handled the visitation well – the mortician did a wonderful job with his body; he looked very peaceful. I had a harder time with the service … I wish I’d thought to stash a tissue in my pocket. Heaven has a new Little League baseball coach now … one who never had children of his own but loved his players as if they were. You were good to me Rich King … so much better than I deserved. Goodbye old friend.

Any baseball fans out there in Butler County? I’m sure there are many Cubs fans this season with high hopes of winning the World Series; after all, they ended the regular season with the best record in baseball. At one point in my past I was a very loyal Cubs fan and cheered on Ryne Sandberg. Then those delightful little people, known as grandkids, came along and this grandma has more important ways to fill in the free time she has! Because it’s what I do, I began thinking of the many similarities between farmers and Cubs fans. 1) They both keep trying new things to get better. Whether it’s the batting line-up and the bullpen rotation or the chemicals and seed used, they both realize things aren’t working as good as they should be. Instead of just going along with the flow, they try something different to see if the change helps or not. As someone once said “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get the same results.” 2) They both rely heavily on team work. It doesn’t matter how great a pitcher or a designated hitter is if they don’t have all the other members of the team doing their part. It’s the same with farmers. It takes a whole team from fertilizer applicator to chemical dealer to determining the best seed for your soil type to get a crop planted. Then you have to hope the rains, sun and warm temperatures arrive in a timely manner. 3) The continual positive attitude of “Maybe next year.” Cubs fans have been saying this for many years; their last World Series Championship occurred in 1908. In the past six years I’ve been in Extension, farmers have suffered through a drought, a flood, record crops and prices and record crops with record-low prices. Through it all farmers are optimistic that things will be better next year. Some farmers have had to give up land for next year due to prices, rents, costs of production; for them there might not be “next year”. 4) They both have a loyal fan base that sees them through year after year. The packed seats at Wrigley Field can attest to the fact that Cubs fans don’t give up easily; they are all in! For farmers, support comes from the relationships they’ve built up with the dealers and bankers they work with. They can also rely on all the research-based information that’s available to them from Iowa State University Extension & Outreach. We have the resources, staff and programs to help farmers look toward the future, no matter how dire the situation appears today. Tonight, as I root for the Cubs in Game 5, I will also be rooting for farmers. May their positive, “no give up” attitude and fan support carry them both through! Go Cubs!

incident when in the cover of darkness, some vandal encroached upon our property, committed trespass and removed the political sign supporting the Clinton-Kaine ticket. I’ve learned that our experience is not unique, for many such signs in town have been either taken away or destroyed. Is such action a sign of the crumbling of our democracy when some of the political opposition have to express themselves in demeaning their opponents by removing and destroying signs and thus showing little respect for freedom of speech, fair play and decency?

Letter to the Editor

When I retired 18 years ago, my wife and I decided to move to Parkersburg, where her family has resided for about 100 years. Some of the reasons for this decision were based upon many of the virtues of a small town – concern for others, friendliness, long-term friendships. It appears that times have changed most recently because of the contentious political campaign that seems to have poisoned the environment. Here is one example of this that leaves me perplexed and has made me wonder what has happened to freedom of speech, fair play and common decency. I write this as the result of a recent

Butler County flood recovery update By MITCH NORDMEYER Butler County Emergency Management Director DES MOINES – With the recent flood events in Butler County, many citizens have asked if FEMA or other federal assistance for homeowners is going to be made available. Most of these programs are triggered by a Presidential Disaster Declaration. The primary program under this declaration is the FEMA Individual Assistance Program. There are several factors used to determine whether or not a Presidential Disaster Declaration for Individual Assistance should be approved. These factors include (but are not limited to) concentration of damage, insurance coverage, and the degree of trauma to the state and local communities.

Also, for a “medium-sized” state like Iowa, the average number of homes necessary for a declaration, that are estimated to be destroyed or that have suffered major damage, is about 582 homes. In this most recent flood, local authorities across nine counties identified 504 homes and businesses that were impacted by the flood. Of those, 79 were determined to have been destroyed or suffered major damage that was not covered by insurance. Unfortunately, this level of reported damage is well below that needed to request a Presidential Disaster Declaration. When damage information is compiled and does not meet the criteria for a state to receive a Presidential Disaster Declaration for Individual Assistance, the State does have other

options. The governor may request a Small Business Administration Physical Disaster Declaration. The criteria for receiving an SBA disaster declaration is much less stringent – generally, 25 homes and businesses need to be destroyed or have major damage to receive this declaration. Qualifying residents in the counties surrounding a declared county are also eligible to receive SBA assistance. The SBA loan program that is available is the same program that is available via a Presidential Disaster Declaration for Individual Assistance. Gov. Terry Branstad requested such a designation on Oct. 6, for Butler County, which the SBA granted on Oct. 12. The declaration covers Butler County and the contiguous counties of Black Hawk, Bremer, Cerro Gordo,

Chickasaw, Floyd, Franklin, Grundy and Hardin. The SBA has opened a Disaster Loan Outreach Center in Greene at the North Butler Elementary School Media Center for individuals and businesses to make application. This center will be open until 6 p.m. on Oct. 25. Application may also be made through the SBA’s secure website at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela. Applications will be accepted until Dec. 12, 2016 The federal Individual Assistance program is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and is activated when a Presidential Disaster Declaration for Individual Assistance is made.

Century, Heritage Farms recognized at Iowa State Fair Iowa Department of Agriculture and Farm Bureau celebrated families that have owned a farm for 100 years or 150 years DES MOINES –Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey recognized Century and Heritage Farm families during a ceremony at the State Fair again this year. To qualify, a family must have owned at least 40 acres for 100 years or more in the case of Century Farms and 150 years or more for a Heritage Farm. This year 320 Century Farms and 103 Heritage Farms were recognized. This year was the 40-year anniversary

of the Century Farms program and the 10-year anniversary of the Heritage Farms program. “Being able to recognize these farm families is one of my favorite days of the year,� Northey said. “This award is a tremendous celebration of the families who have cared for the land and raised the crops and livestock that helped build our state and feed the world. To own a farm for 100 or 150 years is a testament to the values of land stewardship, hard work, patience, dedication and perseverance that are found in Iowa’s farm families.� The Iowa Department of Agriculture

and Land Stewardship has partnered with the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation since 1976 to recognize families that have owned and worked a farm for 100 years or more. Including this year’s recipients, more than 19,000 farms from across the state have been recognized. The Heritage Farm program was started in 2006, on the 30th anniversary of the Century Farm program and now 940 farms have been recognized. The 2016 Century and Heritage Farms Program ceremony was held at the Iowa State Fair in the Pioneer Livestock Pavilion on Thursday, Au-

gust 18. Craig Hill, President of the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation, or Joe Heinrich, Vice President of the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation joined Northey to recognize all award recipients. “The program acknowledges the deep roots of Iowa agriculture and the special bond that exists between Iowa families and the land they farm,� Northey said. “The Iowa State Fair is a celebration of Iowa and Iowa agriculture, so it’s a great place to recognize the Century Farm and Heritage Farm recipients.� $GYHUWLVLQJ LV

Elections from page 1 Collaboration – “No one person can know it all or have all the right answers; therefore I feel the ability to admit this and work with others is essential for effective local government,� Groen said. “By being approachable throughout my professional career and personal life I have built many relationships and am confident I have the support and trust needed to call upon the talent and skills of others when needed.� She and husband John were raised in Butler County and reside on an acreage southwest of Allison with their four children: Sidney, Avery, Riley and Rowdy. Throughout the past 20 years, Groen has served many organizations throughout Butler County including: Ducks Unlimited (co-chair and treasurer), Aplington-Parkersburg TAFFY Parent Teacher Organization (secretary and vice-president), Relay for Life – Team Kickin’ Cancer, St. James Lutheran Church (Sunday school teacher), Luther League advisor and Altar Guild. She actively volunteers to help with her children’s activities in Aplington-Parkersburg School District such as sports, music and various fundraising. Groen can be reached at llgroen@ netins.net, 319-231-6811, or directly message her on Facebook. Her Facebook page is Leslie Groen for Butler County Auditor (@lesliegroenforauditor). Race continues for Supervisor District 1 Those in County Supervisor District

1 will have a choice on the General Election ballot, Nov. 8 at the polls or earlier at the courthouse. The choice is between Greg Barnett of rural Plainfield, who was nominated in the Republican Party primary, or incumbent Rex Ackerman of rural Clarksville, who was nominated by petition. Supervisor District 1 consists of Precinct 2-Clarksville (Fremont, Jackson and Butler townships) and Precinct 6-Shell Rock (Jefferson, Shell Rock and northeast Beaver townships). If unsure of precinct, see individual voter registration card. GREG BARNETT (County Republican Party candidate, of Butler Avenue, Plainfield, northeast Butler County) was raised on the family farm, also in northeast Butler County, and graduated from Clarksville High School in 1990. “Of the several issues that are facing Butler County, I believe our tax budget and our county infrastructure are the top two issues. Both issues are embedded with responsible economic development and are a part of my vision for our future,� Barnett said. He owns and runs a small business, Barnett Excavating from his and wife Amy’s acreage and volunteers in youth sports. Greg and Amy have two sons, Jacob and Dawson. Jacob works in the family farming operation and Dawson attends school in Clarksville. “The supervisors carry a heavy burden. They must know and understand the challenges of our communities and maintain the infrastructure of the entire county,� Barnett said. “As a business owner and working

in construction, I have extensive experience in cost analysis, budgeting, working with customers, supervising employees, being competitive and entrepreneurial; all experiences, which bring valuable knowledge to being a County Supervisor,� he said. “I understand the impact government spending has on all citizens – from those on fixed incomes, to business and to farmers,� he said. “I care for the financial well-being of the county and will make decisions based on what is best for the citizens of Butler County.� He said he wants to make himself available to all the residents he represents and address their concerns respectfully. “I never enter a discussion with a thought toward winning, but instead I want to know what I can do to find the best outcome for everyone,� Barnett said. The family attends Pleasant Valley Church in rural Clarksville. Greg’s parents are Tom and Paula Barnett of Clarksville. The public can contact him at gjbarnett53@gmail.com or by cellphone at 319-231-9585, he said. REX ACKERMAN (nominated by petition, of Clarksville) said he is seeking re-election because he wants the county to continue to grow while continuing to exercise fiscal responsibility. He has owned Orly’s Meat Market and Locker in Clarksville for 15 years. He credited the supervisors’ relationship with economic development director Jeff Kolb with being progrowth. Something helping speed repairs of county infrastructure (roads,

bridges) is the recent gas tax increase, which “will allow our Secondary Roads [Department/Engineer’s Office] to move projects up with the increased revenue,� Ackerman said. Ackerman has a resume of activity in public, private, faith and recreational areas. He has served the Butler County Mutual Insurance Board for six years; ISU Extension Council for six years; and is a member of Butler County Snowsnoops (snowmobile group). Rex is married to Tracy Ackerman. They lived on Quail Avenue, rural Clarksville, until a fire consumed their house on Oct. 17. Now they are renting a house in Clarksville. “We plan to rebuild at our current location where the fire occurred,� Rex Ackerman said. They attend Trinity Reformed Church, where Rex has served as a deacon. The public can contact Ackerman at Orlys@butler-bremer.com, or phone, 319-231-1024, he said. Additional names on the Nov. 8 ballot Additional names on the General Election ballot follow. Voters will go to the polls Nov. 8 or may vote earlier at the courthouse. The following names are in addition to the contested local races for County Auditor — Republican Liz Williams or NP Leslie Groen; and Supervisor District 1 — Republican Greg Barnett or NP Rex Ackerman, whose positions are given in this issue. SHERIFF: Jason S. Johnson of Parkersburg is unopposed on the ballot in his bid for reelection to Butler

County Sheriff’s Office. NONPARTISAN candidates include those for Soil and Water Conservation, Extension Council, and township trustees.

An Uplifting Moment Rev. Dave Claassen

Reasons for Having Faith ... The Source of Life Part Two of a Seven-Part Series The earth is full of life of incredible diversity. The best estimate is that there may be over 8 million species on earth! One of the most fundamental questions is where did all of this life come from? Natural evolutionists believe that in a primordial environment there was the right mix of gases such as hydrogen, methane, ammonia, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, etc. that interacted with some type of energy such as the sun or lightning that converted these basic elements into a variety of amino acids. Those evolved into proteins; the proteins eventually evolved into simple cells, complete with DNA to replicate themselves. Dr. Stephen Meyer, a geophysicist who earned a doctorate at Cambridge, wrote, “Consider what you’d need for a protein molecule to form by chance. First, you need the right bonds between the amino acids. Second, amino acids come in right-handed and left-handed versions, and you’ve got to get only left-handed ones. Third, the amino acids must link up in a specified sequence, like letters in a sentence. Run the odds of these things falling into place on their own and you find that the probabilities of forming a rather short functional protein at random would be one chance in a hundred thousand trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion. That’s a ten with 125 zeroes after it! And that would only be one protein molecule — a minimally complex cell would need between three hundred and five hundred protein molecules.” Even the simplest of cells is amazingly complex and has hundreds of thousands of bits of information stored in its DNA. DNA is an astonishingly complex storage mechanism. Information requires someone to have organized it. The storage and sharing of information in a meaningful way so that it makes sense requires intelligence and intentional effort. DNA seems to shout that it has been designed – by someone. Science can only deal with what’s observable. Many people believe that what is observable was made by a creator who is not observable, at least not by scientific methods. The belief is that God, who is outside space and time and is neither energy nor matter, created what exists — energy, matter, and life — within a space and time continuum. According to Dr. Francis Collins, a geneticist who is the head of the Human Genome Project, 40 percent of scientists believe in God and believe that He created life! Admittedly, a decision about whether God exists and created life, including us, has profound ramifications. If it all just happened by chance then life has no ultimate meaning and purpose, but if God created life, and us, then our lives have meaning and a purpose, and this reality should make a difference as to how we live. “Then God said, ‘Let the land produce vegetation’… And God said, ‘Let the water teem with living creatures’… And God said, ‘Let the land produce living creatures’… Then God said, ‘Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness…’” (Genesis 1:11, 20, 24, 26)

BY SHANNON RIES

It is always better to be prepared for an emergency and not have to use it, then to blow it off, “it will never happen here”, and then need it. This is part of being wise. This is part of being protective. Unfortunately, today with children in school, there are certain dangers we must protect against. I remember as a child practicing for a fire or a tornado. We would go through the drills so that if a disaster ever came, we would be ready. Parkersburg had a disaster 8 1/2 years ago with their tornado. Thanks be to God that the children were not in school, but what if they had been? In the past few years now, we have heard about too many maniacs walking into schools with guns and firing; attacking little innocent ones. So now we have to practice another drill. The elementary school where I volunteer has practiced for a lockdown drill. Basically, to keep the children safe if an incident happens with someone entering the school to do harm, the children are now trained to huddle out of sight from the doors while the teachers or staff lock them in. I pray that no other school or any site for that matter, ever has to experience this again. But, unfortuantely, we are living in a world of sin where people are vulnerable to evil. We can’t be ready for everything or anything, but we can take steps to do all we can. Even God’s word tells us to prepare and to be ready. Let’s do our best to protect others and ourselves against a messed up world. We each have a part to play.

Falcons make more history at state qualifier PELLA — What had already been a historic season for the Aplington-Parkersburg High School cross country teams turned even more so last Thursday as both the Falcon boys’ and girls’ teams earned State Cross Country berths with third-place finishes at the State Qualifying Meet at Pella. The berth is the first ever for the Falcon girls and the second in as many years for the A-P boys. “We’re super excited,� Coach Jason Berkey said. “Our kids have worked hard all year – they deserve it. They do the right thing and it’s paid off. Now they get to reap the benefits of it and they get another week of practice. We get to run at Fort Dodge! “I couldn’t be happier for both teams,� he said. Both teams were strong at the top of their lineups. The boys had four finishers in the top 13 while the girls had three in the top 15. The boys finished with 94 points, topping Collins-Maxwell-Baxter by 47 points for the final state berth. Mid-Prairie won the meet with 57 points while East Marshall was second with 81. “It feels really good to repeat, especially without our lead runner from last year (2015 Class 2A state champion C.J. May), proving that we didn’t really need him and we’re still a good team without him,� Junior Mason Tyler said. Tyler, who is one of several Falcons who has seen significantly improved performances from a year ago, said the team’s state of mind has changed a little bit. “Instead of thinking, ‘Man, we can maybe get third,’ we always thought we can get better,� he said. The A-P girls finished with 108 points, 30 more than fourth-place Grundy Center/Gladbrook-Reinbeck. Mid-Prairie won the meet with 61 points while Collins-Maxwell-Baxter was second with 61. “It feels really good (to make State),� Senior Nicole May said. “It was a long season; we worked hard for it.� Tyler continued his sterling late-season run, finishing second individually in a field that included no fewer than nine ranked runners. Tyler, ranked 25th, finished ahead of four runners ranked higher and he is and was less than 14 seconds behind meet-champion Chris Ellens of PCM. Joining Tyler in the top 15 were teammates Trevor Haren (eighth), Hunter Brouwer (12th) and Grant Truax (13th). Sam Bachman (59th place) was the Falcons’ final scoring runner.

DID YOU KNOW?

“Our kids have bought into the team concept,� Berkey said. “They were kind of not on the radar as the year started but I thought during the first couple of weeks of practice, ‘We could be right there,’ and the kids have gotten better and better and better. When you’re buying into the team concept great things happen.� Freshmen Sophia Jungling (fourth place) and Megan Johnson (ninth) led the A-P girls. May placed 15th while Emily Klinkenborg (34th) and Gabby Hanken (46th) rounded out scoring Falcon runners. Six of A-P’s seven individual girls are new to the team this year. “A lot of the girls on the team went out just to have something to do,� May said. “They bought into it. Berkey says every day, we’re buying into it – it’s a ‘we,’ not a ‘me,’ and everybody started to buy into that and everybody started running better once they bought into it.� “They pushed each other all year,� Berkey said. “They’ve gotten better. Not a lot of people enjoy running. Our practices are tough. That’s what you want it to be so that come meet-time it’s a little easier for them.� May added that the disappointment of placing third at the North Iowa Cedar League conference meet just five days earlier left a bitter taste in the girls mouths that they did not want to experience again. “Going into today we all knew what it feels like to not quite get it, so we ran as hard as we could and we wanted it really badly,� she said. DIKE-NEW HARTFORD qualified a pair of girls for the state meet, Alayna Kollasch and Ellie Foster, but failed to qualify a boy for the meet for the first time since 2007. Kollasch placed fifth and Foster eighth, qualifying with several spots to spare, though they were the only Wolverines to finish in the top 30. Kollasch will run at state for the second time while Foster, a freshman, will be there for the first time. The Wolverine boys placed sixth in the team race, missing a state meet berth by 64 points, while the girls were ninth among the 13 complete teams. Other scoring D-NH girls included Livvy Eiklenborg in 40th place, Alexis Tofte in 51st and Lauren Vanderlind 65th. Scoring D-NH boys included Broden Coulter in 17th place, Nate Sharp 21st, Seth Wiibben 31st, Jacob Sigler 35th and Conlee Lyons 54th. Class 2A State Qualifying Meet

Sports Falcons suffer heartbreaking season-ending loss By JOHN JENSEN Eclipse News-Review DENVER — Aplington-Parkersburg rallied to force a deciding set only to fall just short in its Class 2A, Region 6 first-round match. The Falcons (12-17) won the first set going away, 25-19, before dropping two straight to fall into a must-win set four. The Falcons started fast thanks to a pair of Kaitlyn Mohwinkle kills before Denver came back to take a 9-7 lead. A-P regained the lead on a Jenna Bruns kill and built its lead back to three, 13-10, before the Cyclones tied the score again. A-P regained control again, with a hard Mohwinkle kill making it a 16-13 score. Senior Abby Benning got hot at the end of the set, recording kills on three straight points to make it a 22-15 lead. A Dani Johnson kill staked the Falcons to a 3-1 lead in the fifth set, only to see Denver tie the score and eventually build a 13-11 lead (with match point at 15). Kills by Johnson and Mohwinkle pulled A-P back to a tie, 14-14, though a rare lift call on a set gave Denver a one-point lead. The Cyclones finished the match with a kill moments later. Mohwinkle paced A-P with 15 kills while Benning had six. Canon DeGroote had 17 digs and Johnson was credited with eight blocks.

Falcons end season on winning note DES MOINES — Aplington-Parkersburg outscored Saydel 20-6 over the final three quarters to win its season finale 20-13 Friday in rural Des Moines. The Falcons (4-5 overall, 3-4 in Class 2A, District 3) spotted the Eagles a 7-0 first-quarter lead before righting their ship. “I thought the last three quarters were the most complete game we have played for a long time,” Falcon coach Alex Pollock said. “We were physical in the trenches and our backs ran hard. “I thought our offensive and defensive lines were the difference,” he said. “Something clicked late in the first quarter with our offensive line and we were pretty dominant after that.” Junior running back Sam Thorn paced the Falcon offense with 158 yards and a pair of touchdowns. The total puts him over 1,000 yards for the season. Nearly one-third of Thorn’s yards came in the final two games of the season. “As our offensive line goes, Sam goes,” Pollock said. “ He will be the first to credit the effort of the guys up front. Sam has done an excellent job of hitting the hole and not worrying about running around guys, rather running through them. It also helps that our other backs have improved their fakes. Things have really started to open up for Sam.” The Falcon defense also shined, holding a high-powered Saydel team to 88 rushing yards and 254 yards of total offense. “We had a fairly complex defensive gameplan going into the game, and I thought our kids executed it perfectly,” Pollock said. “We tackled well and

played option defense exceptionally.” Saydel took the early lead on an interception return for a touchdown, though its offense could not convert a pair of early opportunities that could have put A-P in a much deeper hole. The Falcons pulled to within a point on a Carter Cuvelier 12-yard scramble in the second quarter and took the lead on the ensuing Thorn conversion run. A-P added to its lead in the third quarter on a five-yard Thorn run, though the extra-point kick missed the mark, leaving it a 14-7 game. Saydel had a chance to tie following a third-quarter scoring pass, though it, too, missed its PAT kick. The Falcons added an insurance tally in the fourth quarter on a two-yard Thorn run. The victory capped an up-and-down season for A-P. It dropped four straight games at one point before finishing on a high note with back-to-back victories for the first time all year. “I think it’s huge to win the final two games of the year,” Pollock said. “Our returning guys will have some momentum as we hit the weights during the offseason. We need to set our sights much higher for next year. We will have a lot of guys returning that either started or had significant playing time throughout the year, but none of that matters if we don’t hit the weights hard and do things right in the offseason.” Friday’s game was the final one for 10 Falcon seniors, including its leading tackler and receiver (Riley Barrett) and second-leader rusher, Chase Kling. Other seniors included Conner Ubben, David Eisentrager, Nevada Rosteck, Miles Grandon, Nick Foxen, Mitchell Van Hauen, Alex Busma and

Jaydan Terrill.
