The Bakken Oil Pipeline, which runs diagonally
across Iowa and through 18 Iowa Counties, has certainly
been . It runs through Webster County, situated north of
Gowrie and running close to Harcourt.
The pipeline has been supported by many farmers and there are other farmers who oppose it. I have
listened to both sides of the argument.
For obvious reasons most local citizens dont
want to make public comments. But almost everyone has
an opinion. The pipeline is going through Iowa and we
all hope there will be no adverse consequences.
The biggest emotional argument against the
pipeline seems to be focused on eminent domain. All
farmers feel a strong attachment to their land and so this
feeling is understandable. It is important that everyone
respects all opinions on eminent domain, pro or con. Eminent domain has always been a subject of controversy in
our nation and it has certainly produced strong feelings in
the pipeline controversy.
And then there are the farmers and environmentalists who oppose the pipeline because they believe there
will be environmental problems. All pipelines eventually break is one common refrain.
In some ways these feelings coming from opposing farmers and groups are stronger than feelings one
has about their respective schools. And think about it.
Schools come and go, and mostly in Iowa schools have
disappeared (over the past several six-seven decades).
But there is always the land. The land is our single greatest source of local pride.
More than ever we all need to work together,
pray together, and support each other. We may have opposing views, but the land, directly or indirectly, benefits
all of us.
Congratulations to Mourning Glorys induction
into the Iowa Rockn Roll Music Hall of Fame on Sunday.
In recent years Mourning Glory has performed
at the Dayton Alumni Banquet on Memorial Day weekend. This year there wasnt an alumni banquet but it will
start again next year.
It was always nice to talk with Joe LeValley,
formerly of Dayton, who is still a member of the group.
Joe was an original member also and is the son of the
late Jack LeValley who passed away several years ago in
Dayton.
Joe still has a passion to perform and the band
always was eager to perform again. Judy Nemechek
Heidner, co-chair of the banquet for many years, had a
good rapport with Joe and every year Mourning Glory
came back to perform at the banquet.
The signature song at that banquet, of course,
was: All the World is from Dayton Tonight. Wow, what
a song! Who could ever forget that.
For one magical moment, those great lyrics inspired everyone. It did seem to everyone present that
they whole world was from Dayton tonight (that night).
Perhaps it is just my experience but from my
perspective it seems that more motorcyclists are using
their headlights during daytime hours.
I want to tell those motorcyclists that I am personally seeing you much better. Those headlights help
me a lot.
I went on line and a few websites do state that
headlights used during day light hours do make motorcyclists more visible to motorists.
Here are some other things that are recommended to motorcycle riders: 1) Bright colored motorcycles
help; 2) Bright clothing and headgear help; 3) avoid driving in blind spots as much as possible.
I have had a few friends pass away in motorcycle accidents over the years, and a few others were injured. I might be a little more sensitive on this subject
than the average person.
Keep on cycling and be safe!
All of us bond together through our schools and
churches. And this will be more important than ever before. We have great schools and churches and our involvement with these institutions will help us more forward.

It happens around here more than I like and at
most inopportune times the cable becomes intermittent,
picture goes haywire, sound becomes garbled and poof!
Blackout! On again clear in both picture and sound and
then a repeat. This happened again the other day and do
you know when it would go out completely? Just when a
favorite program came on, like Wheel of Fortune. A lot
of people were no doubt disappointed in not being able
to see the Olympics and it was at those times that it was
out a lot. I checked with the cable company and was, by
a recorded voice, advised to speak my address, and there
was an outage. Leave your phone number and you will be
advised when it is operating properly again. Never did get
that call. It came back on in time for Perry Mason. I fell
asleep in my chair and never found out who the murderer
was for sure.
Do you remember the old days when you
bought an electrical appliance or gadget and took it out of
the box, plugged it in and it worked? Oh, yes, our first TV
big heavy brown box with tubes you had to replace occasionally but it worked! We could get all three central
Iowa TV stations, WOI (the first), WHO and KRNT. That
set did have to be installed and a roof top antenna placed
just right. Then do not move the TV. Later some sets or
areas required rabbit ears but that wasnt much of an inconvenience. Those first to get color paid dearly for even
a small set. Now to get reception of supposed non-cable
stations you need some sort of apparatus to make sure of
both a clear picture and sound. I tried one of those once
when it was my main feeder that went out over a weekend.
Didnt work. Returned for refund. My son used common
picture wire strung around my den to get the main stations. Sometimes I think should have settled for that apparatus no matter its not being much of a dcor.
Every once in a while various memories of
things that were flash through my head. Most times they
are triggered by something I see on TV, something I read,
observations of life around me or chats with friends. I occasionally tune in on old Golden Girl episode. One was
Dorothys getting together with an old girlhood friend and
their reminiscing about the pranks they played on one another. In this one her friend had supposedly had some sort
of attack while they were playing a game of tennis and
it was reported she had died. Dorothy went ahead with
the gathering of other old friends/school mates she had
planned only this time it was a wake. Of course after
sometime the doorbell rang and in walked Dorothys old
friend and shocked everyone. But, where was Dorothy?
It was surmised that in her sorrow she had gone to the
solitude of her room and so the friend and others went
to retrieve her. As they opened Dorothys door they saw
Dorothy and her friends husband under the covers and
they sat up, threw down the covers revealing their being
fully clothed. Dorothy had pulled the prank out of the
hubby and got the last gotcha!
I remembered my
friend Lorraine and I and though we liked nice little joke
gifts and things, we would never have played any pranks
near that one. But it did cause me to remember her and
wishing I could still call her for a chat. Then I remembered Agnes with whom we confided so many things. We
would never have pulled a nasty prank on one another.
They both went to their heavenly reward some time ago.
Another memory jogger is the attire I see some
wearing to church these days. I am sure my peers and
the generation following remember dressing up in our
Sunday best. Who remembers always wearing a hat
and a skirt and hose to church? Little girls even wore
their prettiest outfits and patent shoes. When you became
high school age, dress up. That meant the hose and go to
meeting shoes. Most adult men wore full suits and ties,

John was 64 tall and was at a reasonable
weight (216lbs) for such a tall man. Evidently the cooking at Grandview Care Center agreeed with him.
Everyone treats me so well here, he said.
They just take very good care of me. He walks with a
walker, but admits he should get out more and do more
exercise out of the facility. I walk quite a bit here, but it
isnt enough, he said.
John Olson was quite well known in the Dayton/Gowrie area. He was very philanthropic, contributing generously to the Dayton Rescue Squad, the libraries (Dayton and Lehigh), and over the years hes helped

I have really believed in the ambulance squad.

EMTs, several drivers
The Dayton Rescue Service currently has four
EMT (Emergency Medical Technicians) on the rescue

Bobbi Martin is a nurse at Boone County Hospital and she is president of the Dayton Rescue Service.
Craig Johnson is a foreman for the City of Dayton; Nick Dunbar is the Police Chief in Dayton; and Megan Johnson is a nurse at the hospital in Webster City.
There are many drivers for the Dayton Ambulance Service. They include Earl Hansen, Luke Hainzinger, Mitch Peterson, Dan Stewart, Clint Ford, Lucas
Burns, Jessie Sorenson, Chris Naegle, Joe Fiebiger, and
Al Martin. Al is a city emloyee and is also married to
Bobbi Martin.
Area cities cover
Dayton, area towns
The Gowrie Ambulance Service helps to cover
Dayton on certain periods and also covers all areas west
of Dayton including Harcourt, which also has an ambulance service.
The Stratford ambulance service covers areas
east of Dayton. Dayton Rescue Service covers Dayton
and other area towns but does appreciate getting help
from area town ambulances.
Dayton helps cover Lehigh but also gets help
from Trinity in Fort Dodge.
It has been a problem for Dayton Rescue to have
enough EMTs available. Dayton Rescue currently has
four EMTs and Chris Naegle, who is a driver, is also
training to become an EMT.

likely attracted to the habitat and the location of a checkout box where hunters are asked to leave their comments
on the program. The checkout cards are used to evaluate

The Iowa 4-H Foundation sponsors the annual
Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the Iowa
State Fair. Counties nominate volunteers, community
leaders, and Extension staff members who have exemplified outstanding service and dedication to the 4-H youth
program in their county. Only one individual or couple
per county can be nominated each year. Inductees can be
recognized posthumously.
The Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame was established in
2002 as 4-H celebrated 100 years of a program dedicated
to teaching youth life skills. During those 100 years, it
became evident that one of the essential elements of the
4-H program was the caring adults who were committed
to the program.
Tim McGuire was honored on Sunday, August
21 as Webster Countys inductee. Tim was involved with
the Webster County 4-H Sheep project for over 25 years
and was the fair sheep superintendent for over 15 years.
He saw many sheep identification changes from tags
only, drawing hair, to retinal eye imaging.
Tim could be seen at the weigh ins encouraging
the 4-Hers as they weighed in the lambs and was always
helpful to families. To help the families, he scheduled
project meetings to share with families how to raise their
lambs and how to feed. Growing up, Tim greatly treasured the time he spent with his parents and siblings raising and showing sheep. He later enjoyed the time shared
with his sons as they raised and showed sheep.
Tim McGuire passed away on Sunday, April 17,
2016 which was Good Shepherd Sunday. How fitting for
this man.
Accepting the award was son Pat McGuire and
wife Karen McGuire with Albert Grunenwald, Executive
Director of the Iowa 4-H Foundation.
Senator Grassley
checks into EpiPen
price increases
Ive heard from a large number of Iowans about
EpiPen prices.
It seems everybody knows a child or even an
adult with severe allergies who rely on this life-saving
product and need to be able to afford it.
I wrote to the company that makes the product to
ask about the price increases.
The company, Mylan, committed to respond in
writing.
I look forward to receiving the written response.
Iowa parents asked me to get involved, and since I got
involved, more Iowans have contacted me to express interest in what the company says, 465 Iowans so far.
Theres a strong consumer interest in whats behind the EpiPen cost increase.
Theres also a strong taxpayer interest in seeing
how much Medicare, Medicaid and the Childrens Health
Insurance Program are paying for EpiPens.
The state of Minnesota might have overpaid for
EpiPens by $4 million in a single year under a Medicaid
rebate program.
I wrote to the Iowa Attorney General, asking
him to consider whether Iowans also overpaid. I look
forward to his response.
Getting the information and answers is something Ill continue to pursue on behalf of the people of
Iowa.

Daven Rees plays tough defense Friday evening
against the Titans. Photo by Lisa Peterson.
John served 23 years in the Army Air Corps
which later became the Air Force. He was in Korea for
15 months and he spent time in Japan.
He reflected on WWII. He served in maintenance in Canada and Alaska. He was part of a massive
effort to supply the Russians with some 7,000 airplanes.
We dealt with a Russian officer who was really a bad
person. It was tough. The Russians didnt like us. But
they did like our airplanes.
John isnt timid about giving his opinion on
warfare, including the war in Iraq. The only way we
will win this war is by massive bombing. We cant win
the war when we have a few soldiers die every day and a
few enemy soldiers die every day.
