First sale CCRC approves first purchase of land in reservoir project By AMY HANSEN OST news editor [email protected]

It was a day that had been decades in the making.

During a Sept. 11 Clarke County Reservoir Commission (CCRC) meeting, the CCRC unanimously approved the purchase of land from Linda Abbott and Rick Oshel for the reservoir project in Clarke County.

“We did get it done and it is a red-letter day for us. Our number one purchase and Rick has always want-ed to be the first one,” said CCRC member Sandy Kale. “And, I con-gratulate him and thank him and his family from the deepest part of our hearts. This is a big day for us.”

The sale was for 11.38 acres, and the purchase price of the property was $22,760.

The land in the purchase agree-ment is in parcel “A” located in a

portion of the southwest quarter of section 20, township 73 north, range 26.

Dave Beck, project coordinator for the CCRC’s reservoir project, said the land has been surveyed and is in the upper end of the reservoir.

“Linda and Rick were very good to work with,” he said. “Like we said, it took us awhile to get the surveyors out there for a variety of reasons, but we got it done.”

About the projectThe CCRC’s reservoir project

could provide a water supply for Osceola and Southern Iowa Rural Water Association (SIRWA) with an 816-acre lake, which could provide 2.2 million gallons of water per day.

West Lake, the current water source, doesn’t meet the needs of Clarke County and SIRWA.

The total project cost for the res-ervoir in the CCRC’s water supply project is estimated at $37.6 million.

Funding for the project includes many sources, especially funding from the local-option sales tax.

Oshel statement“My sister’s and my intentions are

to take the money that we’re getting from the sale of the property and leverage it into upland treatment above the lake,” said Oshel. “That’s our intention. I mean, it might not be dollar for dollar, but that’s our intention is to spend that money on upland treatment above the lake on our farm.”

Legal processWhile this first sale went fairly

easy, not all landowners in the res-ervoir project area have been in fa-vor of the CCRC’s project and it has played out in court.

Clarke enters third year of instituting The Leader in Me By AMY HANSEN OST news editor • [email protected]

If Clarke Elementary Vice Principal Randy Bolton sees two students have a tense interaction in the school hallway, he knows there’s a quick way to fix the issue proactively.

Many times, all he has to say is, “Hey guys, can we think win-win?”

“Does that mean they always can solve it them-selves? No. But, I’ve had a number of times where there was probably going to be some type of an altercation, and just me reminding them thinking ‘win-win,’ they talk, they turn and they sit down, and I go on,” Bolton said.

The “win-win” verbage is from The Leader in Me process that is instituted at Clarke Community Elemen-tary School.

This is the third year of the school using The Leader in Me.

What is The Leader in Me?

The Leader in Me is a whole-school transforma-tion model that acts like the operating system of a computer — it improves

the performance of all other programs. Based on the “7 Habits of Highly Effective People,” The Leader in Me equips students with the self-confidence and skills they need to thrive in the 21st century economy and society.

The Leader in Me is not an event to attend or curric-ulum; it’s ubiquitous leader-ship development, meaning it’s taking place everywhere and all the time.

It’s not a 30-minute pro-gram students have to sit through every week. It’s a process of effective thinking and doing that students can enact in their daily lives.

Signs of improvementAccording to Bolton,

since instituting The Leader in Me process, overall, disci-pline referrals are down.

“Our attendance has never really been a huge is-sue when you look at the big picture — the 97 percent, 98 percent,” he said. “Chronic absences are the ones I like to look at. If you have five kids that miss 20 or more days, that’s a lot of days kids

What it takes: Fitness test just one part of becoming a police officer By AMY HANSEN OST news editor • [email protected]

When applying for a job, most places don’t make you run a timed mile and a-half run. But, a physical fitness test is a requirement if you want to be a police officer.

To get into the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy, there are four areas a per-son has to be proficient in during the physical fitness test — sit and reach, sit ups, push ups and a 1.5 mile run.

“We have the luxury of having a great relationship with the school, and so they allow us, when we have these processes, to use the track, and that’s six laps,” said Osceola Police Chief

M a r t y D u f f u s . “ A n d , they allow us to use the wres-tling room b e c a u s e it’s got mats and things on the floor for the sit and reach, the push ups and the sit ups.”

For those who don’t know, sit and reach is where a person sits on the floor with legs fully extended and feet up against a box. The person has to lean forward and reach to a certain point on the box. It’s to show range in flexibility.

During the push up test, a male or female officer will

be beside the person making a fist on the ground and the person has to touch the fist every time he or she goes down.

There are different scales based upon age and gender in the physical fitness test.

Local barns feaured in All State Barn Tour

The 2014 All State Barn Tour will be held Sept. 27 and 28.

Historic restored barns throughout Iowa will be opened to the public during the Iowa Barn Foundation’s free, two-day, self-guided, all-state barn tour Saturday, Sept. 27 and Sunday, Sept. 28, 2014, from 8:30 a.m. un-til 5:30 p.m.

The All-State Barn Tour features restored barns that have received Iowa Barn Foundation match-ing grants, along with barns whose owners have restored their barns using their own money and received an Award of Distinction.

The 2001 All-State Barn Tour was the first of it’s kind in the United States.

The All-State Barn Tour has been organized to en-courage barn preservation in Iowa, teach young people about Iowa’s rich agricul-tural heritage and renew pride in this heritage. The tour is arranged so that you can go from barn to barn on your own, as time and dis-tances permit.

Barns, America’s sym-bols of honesty, integrity, and the American dream, are disappearing from Io-wa’s countryside at a rapid rate. With mechanized ag-riculture of today, barns are no longer the center of the farm. But, they remain poignant reminders of our agricultural heritage.

For a complete list of Iowa Barns open for the fall tour please visit: http://www.iowabarnfoundation.org/tours/2014 all-state.htm

Local barnsOswald barn, 1071 Har-

ken Hills Drive, Osceola (Clarke County): Take Highway 34 through Osceo-la; go another half mile to Harken Hills Drive on the south side of the road. Beef barn was designed in the 1930s and can be converted into a show pavilion to seat over 700. Purebred Angus were developed there by Dr. C.R. Harken, Osceola physician. Farm was oper-ated with view of helping small producer market his animals. J.C. Penney often visited the farm.

Beeler barn, 2569 140th Street, Van Meter (Madi-son County): From DeSoto, go south on Highway 169. Turn east on 130th Street to stop sign. Then go south on Prairie View Avenue and finally east on 140th Street. Barn is in what was a strong

German settlement. Barn was built by the Burger brothers including one who became the first county agent in Iowa.

McBroom-Hargis barn, 1218 Highway 169, Winter-set (Madison County): Barn is five miles south of I-80 (Adel, De Soto, Winterset exit). Article in Madison County paper (1884) dis-cussed this barn, “It would be the largest barn in this part of the county.” It has a wooden track, post and beam, pegs and was de-signed by I.F. Carter of De Soto.

Founded in 1997, the Iowa Barn Foundation, an all-volunteer, all-state or-ganization, is dedicated to preserving Iowa’s rural ag-ricultural buildings. The Iowa Barn Foundation is an Iowa non-profit corpo-ration with tax-exempt sta-tus under paragraph 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

The primary mission of the Iowa Barn Foundation is to educate the public about the significance and importance of Iowa’s barns through the Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine and barn tours. It raises money to provide barn rehabilita-tion or restoration match-ing grants to help property owners restore their barns.

In addition, property owners who use their own funds to restore or rehabili-tate barns that would other-wise qualify for a matching grant are eligible to receive an Iowa Barn Foundation Award of Distinction. Take a look at some of the re-stored barns that have been featured on the 2001-2013 IBF Barn Tours.

The Iowa Barn Founda-tion, in keeping with its mis-sion to preserve Iowa’s ag-ricultural heritage, accepts economically and financial-ly self-sustaining farms and farmland.

Through the foundation’s farm conservancy, these farms and farmland are saved in perpetuity for agri-cultural purposes according to the owner’s wishes.

All of the funds to reha-bilitate and restore Iowa’s barns come solely from private donations. Make a donation or become a member of the Iowa Barn Foundation today. Looking for the perfect hol-iday cards or gifts? Check out the Iowa Barn Founda-tion Store.

This week is Constitution Week

Constitution Week is the commemoration of Amer-ica’s most important docu-ment. It is celebrated annu-ally during the week of Sept. 17-23.

The United States Consti-tution stands as a testament to the tenacity of Americans throughout history to main-tain their liberties, freedoms and inalienable rights.

This celebration of the Constitution was started by the Daughters of the Ameri-can Revolution. In 1955, DAR petitioned Congress to set aside Sept. 17-23 an-nually to be dedicated for the observance of Constitu-tion Week. The resolution was later adopted by the U.S. Congress and signed into public law on Aug. 2, 1956, by President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

The DAR has also erect-ed a structure that is built in tribute to the Constitution of the United States. DAR Constitution Hall, which is a performing arts center, opened in 1929.

The aims of the Constitu-tion Week celebration are to:

• Emphasize citizens’ re-sponsibilities for protecting and defending the Constitu-tion.

• Inform people that the Constitution is the basis for America’s great heritage and the foundation for our way of life.

• Encourage the study of the historical events which led to the framing of the Constitution in September 1787.

3OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE THURSDAY • SEPTEMBER 18, 2014OBITUARIES A.F. ‘Whitey’ Kuhlman Humboldt

A.F. “Whitey” Kuhl-man, 92, of Humboldt, died Septem-ber 5, 2014 at Fr iend-s h i p H a v e n in Fort Dodge.

F u -n e r a l services were 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, September 10, at the Congregational United Church of Christ in Humboldt. Interment with full military rites conduct-ed by the Adams Ameri-can Legion Post 119 and Sathers-Odgaard V.F.W. Post 5240 was in Union Cemetery, Humboldt. Visitation with the family

was from 5-8 p.m. Tuesday at the Mason-Lindhart Fu-neral Home in Humboldt.

Whitey is survived by his sons and daughters-in-law, Rick and Mary Kuhl-man of Fort Dodge, Randy and Roxanne Kuhlman of Fort Dodge, and Kevin and Teresa Kuhlman of West Des Moines; grand-children, Aaron (Cheryl), Joe, Kristin, Shannon, and Greg Kuhlman; and great granddaughter, Katelyn. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Eliza-beth “Betty”; and a broth-er, Kenneth Kuhlman.

A.F. Kuhlman, the son of Arthur Fredrick and Elizabeth Annette (May-cock) Kuhlman, was born August 13, 1922 on a farm near Wellington, Missouri. He attended school in the country and in Welling-ton. His father worked on

a construction crew nar-rowing the Missouri River, which took the family to Missouri Valley. Follow-ing Whitey’s graduation from Missouri Valley High School in 1940, he attend-ed Drake University in Des Moines where he let-tered in football.

At the outbreak of World War II, Whitey enlisted into the United States Navy. He attained the rank of Lieutenant Junior Class and was in-volved in the D-Day land-ing at Omaha Beach fol-lowed by service in the Pacific Theater. Following his honorable discharge in 1946, he returned home and married his high school classmate Elizabeth “Betty” Homan.

He completed his mas-ter’s degree at Drake and began his teaching and

coaching career at Ida Grove for 3 years. He then served the Osceola School District until 1958 when he moved his growing fam-ily to Humboldt. In Hum-boldt, Whitey coached football, track and served as the Athletic Direc-tor. In 1964, he became the Assistant Principal and Activities Director of the new Humboldt High School until his retirement in 1987.

Whitey was a member of the Congregational United Church of Christ. He was also a member of the Iowa Football Coach’s Hall of Fame and was recognized for his work with the Iowa High School Athletic As-sociation. He enjoyed working in the automobile business in his retirement and loved the time he spent with his family.

Dorothy Babberl Des Moines

Dorothy Marie Bailey Babberl, 82, daughter of J o s e p h a n d G a r n e t M a r i e ( W e e k -es) Bai-ley, was b o r n May 22, 1932, in Garden Grove, Iowa. She passed away on Friday, September 5, 2014, while vacationing in Tennessee.

Dorothy grew up on a farm southeast of Garden Grove and attended school in Garden Grove and Le-roy before graduating from Osceola High School in 1949. She worked hard on

the family farm alongside her beloved brother and mother during her child-hood.

She was united in mar-riage to Marvel John Bab-berl on March 4, 1950, and they were blessed with six children. During John’s work with the Burlington Northern Railroad, they lived in several places in-cluding Osceola, Knoxville, Ottumwa, and Chariton. The Babberls made their home in the Des Moines area for the last 26 years.

Dorothy was a home-maker and mother who enjoyed her grandchildren to the fullest. She was al-ways ready to go wherever anyone wanted to take her. She loved country music, camping, and reading. An-other activity that brought her great joy was her recent

discovery of Facebook and Words with Friends. But by far her favorite thing to do was to spend time with her family.

Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents, Jo-seph and Garnet; husband of 61 years, John; children, Mike Babberl and Cindy Nation; son-in-law, Larry Remington; brother, Ju-nior Bailey; brothers-in-law, Lyle and Stan Babberl and Jack Heilman; and sis-ters-in-law, Connie Bailey and Lela Heilman.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Religious convictionBy Randy FairchildTama

My name is Randy Fairchild. I have a ministry on the road called biblenabigrig ministries. I am praying

for our nation. We are living in the last days. I am ready to meet God.

To the people that done me wrong, I forgive you. I hold no grudges. God bless everyone.

He is elshadi Jehovah James 4:8. By Marie WhiteClarke County Historical Society

Replacement work was started in the city park July 8, 1943, on a new honor roll ser-vice board replacing the tem-porary board located on the southeast corner of the park. It was to be located near the flagpole on the east side of the park. The city park is called the courtyard today.

The honor roll board was in the form of an arch connecting large pillars. High school prin-cipal Ralph Evans constructed the arch and was in charge of the work.

The arch was constructed of wood and a rock-like build-ing board and painted white. On the pillars of the arch, six windows about 2-square feet were built with sliding frames that permitted ready access to the list of names of some 1,200 men and women in the service. A special window was made for names of those who lost their lives in the war.

The arch was built at the

height of the wartime enlist-ments and inductions and was a joint endeavor of WWII mothers, the United Service Women’s Club, the legion and auxiliary and would be pre-sented to the community on their behalf. Public donations helped defray the $200-$300 cost of the new honor roll.

Speaker and band platforms were erected on the west side of the arch in preparation for dedication. The steel park benches were arranged in a “V” in front of the arch and reserved for relatives of mem-bers whose names appeared on the honor roll in the win-dows of the arch.

Iowa Gov. Bourke Hick-enlooper was the principal speaker at the dedication of the new honor roll arch Oct. 1, 1943. Hundreds attended the event. A concert was given by the Osceola city band. School children were each given a small flag and assembled in front of the platform.

A Boy Scout was stationed at each of the windows on the arch, and on a signal drew

aside the curtains unveiling the names on the honor roll. The ceremony concluded by the blowing of the retreat and lowering of the flag while the band played the national an-them.

The arch was designed as a temporary structure and had, over time, disintegrated to the point it was an eyesore in the park. The arch was torn down in 1952 by order of the city council.

Project sponsors during the war had expected a permanent memorial would be erected in the county by the time it was necessary to demolish the arch. Voters of the county de-feated a bond issue for a me-morial building at the close of the war.

A Civil War cannon and stack of cannon balls decorated the courthouse yard from the early 1900s until WWII when they were sent to a foundry to be melted into materials for the war effort. A turret from a naval ship was also on display for years. That, too, must have been taken with the cannon.

More on The Leader in Me

Here are some more facts about The Leader in Me.• There are 2,000 schools around the world using The

Leader in Me. Besides Clarke Community Elementary School, some of those schools in Iowa include Waukee, Cedar Falls and Muscatine, as well as Kansas City, Mo.

• The Leader in Me at Clarke was made possible by a grant through Clarke County State Bank and Vucurevich Foundation.

• There are four reasons for The Leader in Me’s suc-cess: 1) It embodies a different paradigm. 2) It works from the inside out. 3) It uses a common language — The “7 Habits.” 4) The implementation is ubiquitous.

Continued from Page 1

District of Iowa ruled in favor of CCRC’s ongoing watershed proj-ect, confirming it is for a public use, public purpose or public improve-ment as defined in the Iowa Code.

Therefore, CCRC may use the power of declaratory judgment and eminent domain in the reservoir project.

Declaratory judgment is a court review for acquiring land for a pub-lic project. It authorizes CCRC to purchase land from voluntary sell-ers and exercise eminent domain for involuntary sellers within the area of the watershed project.

Eminent domain is the govern-ment’s power to take private prop-erty for public use by a state.

An appeal from local landowners was filed May 6 in Clarke County

Courthouse on the judge’s ruling in the CCRC court case. The case could end up before the Iowa Su-preme Court.

However, the CCRC has the power to purchase land during the appeal process.

GratitudeAt the end of the meeting, many

CCRC members expressed their gratitude toward Abbott and Os-hel.

“I’d just like to thank Linda and Rick for stepping up and being the first ones to get us started on our next phase. So, we’ll be forever grateful. Thank you,” said Jack Cooley, CCRC member.

CCRC member Rick McIntosh added, “If you’d talk to us years and years ago about that, I wasn’t sure this day would ever come. But, it finally came.”

are missing. So, the big picture, we’re doing good.”

At Clarke Elementary, every stu-dent has a leadership binder where they track their own data.

Bolton said his wife teaches title reading and she has had a number of students who have really improved with their reading skills.

“Not only do they track their data, they set their own goals, and then they put down two or three things they’re going to do to achieve their goal,” he said.

Common languageAn important factor of The Leader

in Me is the common language chil-dren, teachers and adults can use with “The 7 Habits.”

“So, it doesn’t matter what class-room I’m in, we’re going to use the terms ‘being proactive,’ ‘beginning with the end in mind,’ ‘thinking win-win,’ and ‘putting first things first,’” Bolton said. “That makes our mes-sage clear and concise. It’s not going to be confusing.”

There is also a family and commu-nity component to The Leader in Me where the proactive thinking works at home or businesses, and can make it easier on the parents or employers.

In a world where people are domi-

nated by their cell phones and con-stantly looking down, Bolton said it’s important to show children the value of shaking hands, looking some-one directly in the eye and speaking clearly to them when introducing themselves.

Proactive, not reactiveAs a vice principal, Bolton said it’s

necessary for him to be a model of how to be proactive and not reactive.

He said he’s had situations where a student is “pushing his buttons” and he felt himself becoming reactive. By taking a moment to step out and clear his head, Bolton said he can come back to the student with a proactive manner.

“They’re like, ‘Mr. Bolton, you were ready to blow up and become reactive.’ And I said, ‘Yeah, I did,’” Bolton said. “They’re like, ‘Wow, if I would’ve done that at recess, I wouldn’t be here.’”

By each taking a moment to think things through, it’s possible for the student and adult to be effective and help each other discover the root and solution to the problem, Bolton said.

How long is The Leader in Me go-ing to continue at Clarke? The an-swer is forever.

“That’s why it’s not a program. It’s the principal,” Bolton said.

is in the process of hiring two new officers.

Applicants have to take the physical fitness test and written test and go through an interview process and background check. As the process continues, the top applicants also have to have a psychological exam.

Duffus said he’s hoping to make job offers by mid-Septem-ber.

Getting tripped upWhen it comes to the physical

fitness and written tests, Duf-fus said people typically have a harder time with passing the physical fitness test.

He said the majority of people pass the physical test, but there’s a good percentage of applicants who don’t.

“The perception is our job is very sedentary, and it is. Peo-ple see us, we’re usually sitting down. We’re in a car,” Duffus said.

Duffus said, his rule is a person has to be at least age 21 to be a police officer in Osceola.

The key to passing the law en-forcement test, like any tests, is to practice and prepare.

“Even some of the younger folks, like in this past process, we had some in that 20 to 29 range who dropped out after the push ups and sit ups,” Duffus said. “Normally, in the physical agil-ity part of it, when we lose some-body, it’s normally in the run. … It really is any given Saturday.”

Juvenile homicide resistance training seminar planned

Creston and Leon Commu-nity Partnerships for Protecting Children presents “Why Teens Kill,” a juvenile homicide resis-tance training with America’s leading authority on juvenile homicide Phil Chalmers.

It is planned 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 7, at Lakeside Casino and Hotel, 777 Casino Dr.

This seminar is classroom based and jammed with me-dia, including crime scene photos, original videos, inter-rogation videos and informa-tion known only to the killers themselves.

This seminar is fast-moving and will cover more than 50 ju-venile homicide cases, including school shootings, family mur-ders, mall shootings, cult kill-ings, media-inspired killings, gang killings, and thrill killings.

This course will teach attend-ees the top ten reasons juveniles

kill, the six types of teen kill-ers, the warning signs that were missed, and ways we can keep our schools and communities safe. Chalmers will take attend-ees back in time, exploring the history of juvenile homicide, which dates back to 1786, and will discuss the first acts of school violence, which began as early as 1944 and 1956.

He will also give attend-ees a dose of youth culture, familiarizing attendees with today’s teen entertain-ment, including video games, music and movies. Chalmers’ mission is to save in-nocent lives, and make schools and the world a safer place for children to grow up in.

He will cover the triggers that propel teens towards murder, and he will discuss the steps schools can take to make their schools a safer place for stu-

dents and staff.Attendees will witness hun-

dreds of crime scene photos, killers. journals and weapons, and first hand information from investigators, detectives and first responders. Every at-tendee will take home a valu-able seminar booklet they can refer back to throughout the year and use in their own personal training sessions.

The material in this semi-nar can be graphic, violent and shocking, and attendees should be prepared to view this content in advance.

There is no cost to attend this training but lunch is on your own

Boyers recognized with Governor Award Jason and Amy Boyer of

Weldon were honored at a special ceremony at the Iowa State Fair where they received the Iowa Farm En-vironmental Leader Award from Gov. Terry Branstad.

This is the third year for the award which is a joint effort between the gov-ernor, Lt. governor, Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship and Iowa Department of Natu-ral Resources to recognize the efforts of Iowa’s farm-ers as environmental lead-ers committed to healthy soils and improved water quality.

The Boyers raise corn, soybeans, hay, purebred Limousin cattle, and own and operate the Harvest Barn.

In presenting the award, Gov. Branstad said the award seeks to recognize the exemplary voluntary actions of farmers that im-prove or protect the envi-ronment and natural re-sources of our state while also encouraging other farmers to follow in their footsteps by building suc-cess upon success.

“It recognizes those that have taken steps in their farming operations to serve as local leaders in environ-mental stewardship on their farms, utilizing a variety of techniques and best man-agement practices. As en-vironmental leaders, these farmers have adopted best management practices and incorporated environmen-tal stewardship throughout

their farming operations,” Branstad said.

The nomination for the Boyers was submitted by the Rathbun Land and Water Alliance, and stated they promote conserva-tion practices on both the farms they own and the farms they rent. They plant rye as a cover crop, no-till, and are trying to seed down more acres.

“The Boyers installed one grade stabilization structure, 17 sediment con-trols basins, a water facility, and fencing in heavy use areas. These conservation measures have resulted in reduced sediment delivery to Rathbun Lake by 163 tons per year and reduced the annual delivery of phos-phorus by 895 pounds,” the

nomination stated.In 2013, the Boyers were

recognized as Rathbun Lake Protectors at the Al-liance’s annual meeting.

“True stewards of the land, Jason and Amy rec-ognize that improved wa-ter quality and soil sus-tainability reaps benefits that extend beyond their fields to reach the citizens of Iowa and beyond, and have made environmen-tal stewardship a priority on their farms. We thank them for their efforts,” Branstad said.

Jason is active with the Clarke County Cattlemen, has been the Iowa Limou-sin Association Director for 17 years, and Amy has been a 4-H leader for the past 12 years.

Fry releases information on Legislative Page program

Rep. Joel Fry, R-Osceola, released information on the Iowa Legislative Page pro-gram. Each year, the Iowa House of Representatives, the Iowa Senate and Legisla-tive Services Agency (LSA) employ Iowa high school ju-niors and seniors to serve as Pages for the legislative ses-sion which begins in January.

Duties of the Senate Pages, House Pages, and LSA Pag-es vary slightly but generally Pages provide invaluable assistance to representa-tives or senators and staff by assisting with tasks such as the switchboard, deliver-ing messages, distributing legislation, assisting com-mittee chairpersons or sort-ing amendments. Pages are paid and many schools grant credit for a student’s work in the Legislature.

Rep. Fry is encouraging local students to apply for the 2015 Page program.

“I hope area students will apply to serve as Legisla-tive Pages. It is a worthwhile opportunity for students to gain real world experiences, see firsthand how laws are made, and interact with their government and elected of-ficials,” Fry said.

The application for the 2015 Legislative Page Pro-gram is due no later than Friday, Oct. 3.

When a filmmaker makes the Robertses an offer they cannot refuse, wheels are set in motion for an adventure that neither Ty nor Katee have imagined even in their wildest dreams. If people are lucky, their dreams col-lide with opportunity.

This is the case for Ty and Katee as they are “Follow’n a Dream” in this sequel to

“Got a Love’n Heart.” Their growing love for one anoth-er will be tested in “Follow’n a Dream.”

Published by Tate Pub-lishing and Enterprises, the book is available through bookstores nationwide, from the publisher at www.tatepublishing.com/book-store or by visiting barne-sandnoble.com or amazon.com.

Hagie Manufacturing honors 88 Iowa Farm Environmental Leader Award recipients

More than 88 Iowa farm families named Iowa Farm Environmental Leader award recipients were hon-ored at a special recogni-tion luncheon hosted by Hagie Manufacturing at the Iowa State Fair on Wednes-day, Aug. 13.

Special guest speakers at the Recognition Luncheon included Gov. Terry Brans-tad, Iowa Secretary of Ag-riculture Bill Northey, Iowa Department of Natural Resources Director Chuck Gipp and Alan Hagie, Pres-ident chief executive officer of Hagie Manufacturing.

The featured keynote speaker of the event was Iowa farmer Tim Recker, who has served as state

president for the Iowa Land Improvement Contrac-tors Association and a past president of the Iowa Corn Growers Association.

In 2014, The Iowa Land Improvement Contractors Association was the first association to be named a recipient of the Iowa Farm Environmental Leader award.

“Over the years, grow-ers have become experts in above the soil technologies in effort to achieve optimal yields,” Recker said. “Now is the time for education and implementation of best practices below the soil to achieve maximum farm productivity.”

“I have a huge passion for

farming and can’t imagine trying to provide agricultur-al innovative solutions with-out having a strong connec-tion to the farm,” said Alan Hagie. “Our purpose in cre-ating innovative solutions is to help our customers grow and boost their profitabili-ty, while also enabling them to be better stewards of the land.”

The Iowa Farm Envi-ronmental Leader award is a joint effort between the governor, Iowa Depart-ment of Agriculture and Land Stewardship and Iowa Department of Natural Re-sources to recognize the efforts of Iowa’s farmers as environmental leaders committed to healthy soils

and improved water qual-ity.

It seeks to recognize the exemplary voluntary ac-tions of farmers that im-prove or protect the en-vironment and natural resources of our state while also encouraging other farmers to follow in their footsteps by building suc-cess upon success.

In its third year for the program, Gov. Branstad, Bill Northey and Chuck Gipp presented the Iowa Farm Environmental Lead-er Awards to the 88 Iowa farm families during a cer-emony that took place prior to the Recognition Lun-cheon.

All winners were chosen

by a selection group repre-senting both conservation and agricultural groups. To date, more than 200 awards have been presented to Iowa farm families that are leading the way in proactive implementation of environ-mental stewardship.

Hagie Manufacturing Company, located in Clar-ion, optimizes its custom-ers’ growth by providing the most innovative crop protection solutions in the agriculture industry.

After introducing the world’s first self-propelled sprayer in 1947, Hagie

Manufacturing Company has continued to be a pio-neer in the industry with innovations such as front-mounted booms, hydrostat-ic drives and hydraulically-adjustable booms.

Hagie Manufacturing is committed to providing state-of-the-art crop pro-tection solutions while de-livering a superior customer experience, yet continuing to build on family-owned traditions and values.

Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) has released a new study on gambling among Iowa adults.

Gambling Attitudes and Behaviors: A 2013 Sur-vey of Adult Iowans, pre-pared by the University of Northern Iowa Center for Social and Behavioral Re-search, estimates almost 1.8 million adult Iowans gambled during the past 12 months. Of that number, it is estimated 8,000 adult Iowans could be classified as ‘problem’ gamblers.

According to the re-port, 93 percent of Iowans say they have gambled at some time during their lives and 77.8 percent said they had gambled during the past 12 months. That is significantly higher than in 2011, when 68.9 percent of Iowa adults said they had gambled during the past

12 months. The most com-mon forms of gambling, in order of popularity, were lottery tickets, raffle tick-ets, scratch tickets/pull-tabs, slot machines, and card games with friends, family members or others (not at a casino).

To see the entire Gam-bling Attitudes and Be-haviors: A 2013 Survey of Adult Iowans report, visit www.idph.state.ia.us/IGTP/common/pdf / re -ports/2013_adult_iowans_survey.pdf.

The IDPH Office of Problem Gambling Treatment and Preven-tion works to reduce the harm caused by prob-lem gambling by fund-ing a range of services for Iowans. If you orsomeone you know has a gambling problem, call 1-800-BETS OFF or go to www.1800BETSOFF.org.

In mid 2008, Al Rogulski was on a boating and snorkel-ing trip sponsored by a distributor of his heating and air-conditioning business.

Owners and employees from several heating and air firms were there; it’s the kind of trip that companies award to their best customers.

One afternoon everyone went snorkeling, but Rogulski chose to stay on the boat; the water was a little too rough for him.

Within just a few minutes, several snorkelers began hav-ing trouble, including one man in particular — Rogulski could see him floating unconscious in the water, bumping against the boat.

Rogulski helped pull the man to safety, and when no one else could administer CPR, he took over. After about 15 minutes the man finally spit out a half-gallon of water and began to breathe again. Rogulski had saved his life.

It’s already a pretty good story, but here’s the twist.The name of the unconscious man is Don Bertrand. He’s

the founder of another heating and cooling company locat-ed in Rogulski’s home town. In other words they’re com-petitors. Enemies, you might say, in a business sense.

Normally they fight with each other for customers, but on this day, Rogulski was fighting for Bertrand. And he saved his life. The fact that they’re competitors was never an is-sue; Rogulski later said, “I just felt like I had to do what I had to do.”

When Jesus said, “Love your enemies,” he was talking

about this kind of thing. I doubt any of us would by-

pass a chance to save the life of someone, even someone we might consider an enemy.

However, what if it wasn’t about saving their life, but, in-stead, just giving them a help-ing hand in a small matter? Could we show them this kind of love as well?

Could you give a ride to someone you know doesn’t like you?

Could you visit the hospital room of someone who has criticized you?

Could you offer a word of encouragement to someone who would rather discourage you?

Honestly, I’ve had successes and failures at this kind of “loving my enemies.”

You probably have, too. But, I’m working at getting bet-ter at it. Can I encourage you to do the same?

This kind of love doesn’t make you a hero, but it does make you more like your Father in heaven.

Here’s how Jesus said it: But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. (Matthew 5:44-45)

I’m going to try and love my enemies a little more this week. I’ll pray for you if you’ll pray for me.

Love your enemies

10 THURSDAY • SEPTEMBER 18, 2014 OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNESPORTSEagles soar past Murray, 60-23By SCOTT VICKEROST sports editor • [email protected]

AFTON — For the past three years, the East Union senior class has taken its lumps against Murray, los-ing by an average score of 66-9 in three games.

But the Eagle seniors fi-nally broke through here on Friday, running away to a 60-23 win in the rivalry game.

In doing so, the Eagles improved to 2-1 overall and 1-0 in Eight-Man Dis-trict 7 play. Murray, mean-while, falls to 0-3 and 0-1.

“I think for the kids, for the whole commu-nity, it feels really good,” East Union co-head coach James Hardy said. “We re-spect what Murray does, as far as their program goes. To beat a quality program that has been established for the past several years, that’s a good step in mea-suring where we are right now.”

East Union did not com-plete a pass in the game, but gashed the Murray defense with the ground game, especially in the sec-ond half.Momentum swing

Murray had seemingly regained some momentum heading into halftime, as the Mustangs closed the gap to 22-16 and were set to receive the ball to start the second half.

But four plays into the second half, Jack Jones fumbled after a comple-tion and East Union recov-ered at the Murray 20-yard line.

Two plays later, Mike Ward ran into the end zone from 8 yards out, giving East Union a 28-16 lead.

On the second play of the ensuing Murray drive, Matt Barnes was picked off by Clayton Miller, who returned it all the way to the 14-yard line.

Two plays later, Ward danced his way into the end zone from 9 yards out, putting the Eagles up 34-16 with 8:44 to go in the third quarter.

“Felt like the boys played very well through the first half,” Murray head coach Taylor Fulton said. “It was a lot of physi-

cal competition, a tough game. Turnovers killed us. Like I said earlier in the week, it was about taking care of the ball tonight. Just didn’t get it done.”

“That’s field position and ball control,” Hardy said about the turnovers. “Those are the two things I always talk about with the kids. I think we came out and saw that we needed to make a play. Our boys have all been about try-ing to make plays all year long.”

Defensive adjustments made by East Union co-head coach Craig Ditzler for the second half proved to be key in the victory.

After Barnes repeat-edly found Jones releasing out of the backfield in the first half for big gains, the Eagle d e f e n s e was able to take that away

in the second half. Jones finished with 10 catches for 159 yards.

“They’re starting to mesh together very well,” Fulton said about Barnes and Jones. “We’re look-ing forward to what’s to come.”

Barnes l a t e r f o u n d D u s t i n Teas for a 7-yard t o u c h -d o w n

to cut the lead to 34-23, but East Union answered back with a Cole Campbell touchdown run.

A Gabe Nixon inter-ception set up a 13-yard touchdown run by Ward, who bounced off a defend-er and finished the run into the end zone. Ward led the Eagles with 116 yards on 17 carries.

The three-pronged rush-ing attack of Ward, Camp-bell and Jonathan Weis combined for 290 rushing yards.

“I thought Mikey Ward played a whale of a ball-game,” Hardy said. “I think we’ve had consistent play in our line. Brogan Kinyon, Kyle Seales and Tyler Kelley — you’ve got to look at those guys. Those guys in the trenches are paramount to making sure our running game you saw happen, happened.”Fast start

Weis started the scoring for the Eagles with his 24-yard touchdown run with 7:00 to go in the first quar-ter.

Less than 2 minutes lat-er, Barnes answered back with a 5-yard touchdown run, drawing the Mustangs to within 8-7.

Gabe Nixon took the ensuing kickoff 68 yards for a touchdown, however, putting the Eagles on top 16-7.

East Union forced a three and out and Camp-bell scored the first of his three rushing touchdowns to put the Eagles on top 22-7 with 1:15 to go in the first quarter.

“Where we were at right there, that’s momentum,” Hardy said about Nixon’s

Murray cruises past young Diagonal teamBy SCOTT VICKEROST sports editor • [email protected]

MURRAY — An expe-rienced, senior and junior-laden Murray team won a quick 25-9, 25-6, 25-11 sweep over a young Diago-nal team here Thursday in Bluegrass Conference ac-tion.

But the win didn’t come without a price, as Murray junior Madison Gonseth, a key piece in the middle for the Lady Mustangs, suf-fered an ankle injury in the first game and did not re-turn to the court.

Gonseth went up at the net, getting a kill to give

Murray a 22-9 lead, but as she came back to the g r o u n d , rolled her ankle and crumpled to the floor in pain.

Murray head coach Jerry Shields tended to her in the middle of the court, and af-ter a few minutes, helped Gonseth off the court to a round of applause.

“She said it hurts really, really bad,” Shields said. “We’ll just wait and see, I guess.”

Gonseth was diagnosed with two torn ligaments in her right ankle Thursday night. She is expected to miss at least a week to 10 days.

Sophomore Katie Otto re-placed Gonseth in the Mur-ray lineup for the remainder of the match. Shields said he will take a look at multiple options for filling that void in the middle moving for-ward.

“We kind of had to do a makeshift thing there to-night by putting in a sopho-more to take her place,” he said. “The only thing with losing her out of the middle is losing a lot of height out of the middle, so not sure what we’ll look at doing yet. We may take a look at mov-ing Hannah (Barber) into the middle from the outside. We’ll just have to see in practice, see what happens.”

Barber finished the match Thursday with a match-high 17 kills for the Class 1A 14th-ranked Lady Mus-tangs. She also added two blocks.Learningexperience

The opportunity to face Barber, a returning all-stater for Murray, provided a new challenge for the young Ma-roonettes, who play four sophomores and one fresh-man in their lineup.

“We’re growing,” Di-agonal head coach Allison Hajek said. “We’re getting more mature, older. We’re understanding the game of volleyball better, but we have yet to go up against hitters like Murray has. This was a good practice. I think OST photo by SCOTT VICKER

Area footballNorth Polk 40, Clarke 0

OSCEOLA — Clarke opened district play here on Friday with a 40-0 loss to North Polk.

“Defensively, we played well until they decided to throw the ball,” Clarke head coach Michael Kline said. “We still played pretty well, but they got a couple big plays that put them up 19-0 at halftime, and then in the second half, it picked up where it left off. We played well for a couple downs, and then they got two big plays and before we knew it, it was 40-0.”

The Indians were held to just 101 yards of total offense — 46 yards on the ground and 65 yards pass-ing.

Junior Morales picked up 26 yards on 11 carries, while Jake Leeps added 12 yards on five carries. Rich Wilkins completed nine passes for 65 yards.

Gunner Sergeant-Elben hauled in two of those passes for 20 yards, while Morales caught two passes for 16 yards. Leeps made two receptions for 11 yards. Dustan Van Loon caught one pass for nine yards.

“I was proud of the way our defense played,” Kline said. “We gave up a couple of big plays that we have to do better at defending. Offensively, we need to execute better. The effort was there. We made some plays early in the game, but we need to continually execute on a drive so that a few good plays turn into points.”

Defensively, Gordon Witt recorded eight solo tackles and had three tack-le assists. Gabe Crawford made five solo stops and assisted on another. Josh

Carroll made two solo tackles and three tackle assists, while Gable Reece recorded three solo stops and one tackle assists.

Trey Diawara recorded three solo tackles and one tackle assist. Van Loon had three solo stops.

Witt averaged 26.3 yards per kickoff return on three returns.

North Polk quarterback Blake Brauer finished 5-of-8 passing for 169 yards and three touchdowns. He added two touchdowns on the ground.

Mason Mayfield carried the ball seven times for 92 yards and had a 71-yard touchdown scamper. Matt Cox caught three passes for 155 yards, including two touchdowns.

Clarke, now 0-3 overall and 0-1 in district play, re-turns to action on Friday at Centerville, which stands at 0-3 after a 48-19 loss at PCM last week.DMC 22,Central Decatur 14

URBANDALE — Cen-tral Decatur suffered its first loss of the season here on Friday, falling to Des Moines Christian 22-14 in district play.

Trenton Wells complet-ed eight of his 17 passes for 117 yards and one touch-down. Kyle Palmer caught the touchdown pass, which went for six yards.

Wells was also the lead-ing rusher, at just 44 yards as Des Moines Christian effectively shut down the Central Decatur rushing attack. Palmer added a 16 yard run, while Rayden Boswell had two carries for 11 yards.

Peyton Pedersen caught five passes for 73 yards and Noah Bishop added two catches for 38 yards.

Wells returned a kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown,

accounting for Central De-catur’s other score.

Defensively, Wells re-corded nine solo stops and assisted on four more tack-les. Palmer had six solo stops and seven assists, including an assisted tack-le for a loss. Kade Kelso had eight solo tackles and three tackle assists, includ-ing a solo sack.

Bishop picked off a pass on defense.

For Des Moines Chris-tian, Thomas Kinley ran the ball 10 times for 112 yards and a pair of touch-downs. Jackson Webster had 19 carries for 70 yards with a touchdown and Jonathan Weaver added 17 carries for 42 yards.

Central Decatur, now 2-1 overall and 0-1 in dis-trict play, hosts Interstate 35 on Friday.Wood-Granger 28, Interstate 35 7

WOODWARD — In-terstate 35 struggled to get anything going offensively here on Friday in a 28-7 loss to Woodward-Grang-er in the district opener.

Jaylan White and Brayden Egli combined to complete five passes for 79 yards with three intercep-tions.

White scored the only touchdown of the game for the Roadrunners on the ground, but finished with negative rushing yards on 14 carries. Zachery Irelan led the team with 30 yards on 11 carries.

Zach Goering caught one pass for 26 yards, while Avery Vetter had two re-ceptions for 36 yards. Cole Daniels and Daniel Ken-nedy each caught one pass.

Evan McKinney re-corded two solo tackles and assisted on 10 tackles.

the girls had a lot of fun playing against it, trying for it, just getting to experience that.”

It’s a test that came early in the season for Diagonal. With plenty of volleyball ahead in the season, Hajek said her team can apply what it learned from Thurs-day’s match to the rest of the season.

“We’ve learned so much from just playing this match, because not as many teams in the conference hit like they do,” Hajek said. “So we really got to work on our blocking and talk to our girls about blocking and just tim-ing with that. Absolutely, just playing this game, we have a whole list of things we can work on in practice.”

Senior Shelby Comer re-corded three kills for the

Maroonettes, while Kaitlyn Klommhaus added two kills. Jaci Haidsiak set five assists and had three digs. Kasydi Klommhaus recorded two digs.

Shields said he felt his team showed improvement in passing and serving from Tuesday’s close win against Lamoni.

McKen-zie Case led the Lady Mus-tangs at the service line, go-ing 22-22 with 10 aces. Bar-ber served seven aces.

“We were able to do things tonight we wanted to do,” he said. “Got the passes to Brandi (Gilbert) a lot bet-ter and were able to attack

the net instead of 7 to 8 feet off the net, which is kind of what we were doing against Lamoni the other night. I think we did make an im-provement there.”

Murray improved to 3-0 for the season with the win. The Lady Mustangs travel to Melcher-Dallas on Tues-day and Orient-Macksburg on Thursday. Diagonal, now 0-4, travels to Mormon Trail on Thursday.

Main Street, Panora, Guthrie County, Iowa (the “Panora Project”), renovations will include, without limitation, the addition of a large therapy area and a separate rehab-to-home wing; (2) constructing an additional approximately 8,000 square foot wing to be used for a rehab-to-home unit, including 10 private rooms, a large therapy area, a separate dining room and other facility improvements at the Borrower’s Creston Nursing and Rehab Center located at 1001 Cottonwood, Creston, Union County, Iowa (the “Creston Project”); (3) constructing an approximately 8,000 square foot addition to the Borrower’s Kingsley Nursing and Rehab Center located at 305 W. 3rd Street, Kingsley, Plymouth County, Iowa (the “Kingsley Project” and together with the Panora Project and the Creston Project, the “Projects”) and extensive renovations to the remainder of the facility to improve the overall physical plant; (4) refunding the outstanding principal amount of the Authority’s $27,420,000 Health Care Facility Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2010 (Care Initiatives Project) (the “Prior Bonds”), originally issued to provide the funds necessary to (i) refund the outstanding principal amount of the Authority’s Variable Rate Demand Health Facilities Revenue Bonds, Series 2002 (Care Initiatives Project), the proceeds of which were used for the following purposes: (a) financing the costs of construction of replacement nursing centers located at 1300 East 19th Street, Atlantic, Cass County, Iowa; 1100 Hwy 218 North, LaPorte City, Black Hawk County, Iowa; 1904 West Howard Street, Knoxville, Marion County, Iowa; and 601 Hwy. 61 S., Wapello, Louisa County, Iowa; and (b) financing various repairs, renovations, machinery, furnishings, equipment and other improvements at other facilities owned by the Borrower, including locations at 1505 Sunset Drive, Belle Plaine, Benton County, Iowa; 1208 East Cross Street, Centerville, Appanoose County, Iowa; 1214 N. 7th Street, Chariton, Lucas County, Iowa; 745 E.

The Projects and the facilities refinanced by the Bonds will be owned and operated by the Borrower.

The Bonds, when issued, will be limited obligations of the Authority and will not constitute a general obligation or indebtedness of the State of Iowa or any political subdivision thereof, including the Authority, nor will they be payable in any amount by taxation, but the Bonds will be payable solely and only from amounts received from the Borrower named above under a Loan Agreement between the Authority and the Borrower, the obligation of which will be sufficient to pay the principal of, interest and redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds as and when they shall become due.

At the time and place fixed for the hearing, all individuals who appear will be given an opportunity to express their views for or against the proposal to issue the Bonds for the purpose of financing the Project and refunding the Prior Bonds, and all written comments previously filed with the Authority at its offices at 2015 Grand Avenue, Des Moines, Iowa 50312, will be considered.

Stroke, osteoporosis screenings coming soonResidents living in and

around the Osceola com-munity can be screened to reduce their risk of having a stroke or bone fracture.

First Christian Church will host Life Line Screen-ing Oct. 22. The site is lo-cated at 300 South Main St. in Osceola.

Pat Buls of Waterloo at-tended a Life Line Screen-ing and said, “As a spouse and RN I cannot say how glad I am that we had this test done.”

Four key points every person needs to know:

• Stroke is the third lead-ing cause of death and a leading cause of permanent disability

• 80 percent of stroke victims had no apparent warning signs prior to their stroke

• Preventive ultrasound

screenings can help you avoid a stroke

• Screenings are fast, noninvasive, painless, af-fordable and convenient

Screenings identify po-tential cardiovascular con-ditions such as blocked ar-teries and irregular heart rhythm, abdominal aortic aneurysms, and hardening of the arteries in the legs, which is a strong predictor of heart disease. A bone density screening to assess

osteoporosis risk is also of-fered and is appropriate for both men and women.

Packages start at $149. All five screenings take 60-90 minutes to complete. For more information re-garding the screenings or to schedule an appointment, call 1-877-237-1287 or visit our website at www.lifeli-nescreening.com. Pre-regis-tration is required.

You may also visit the online press room located

on our web site: www.lifeli-nescreening.com

Screenings in Kansas are performed by Life Line Screening of America, LLS on behalf of Life Line Screening Physicians, P.A. In Texas: Physician autho-rization is required. A Life Line Screening affiliated physician will provide au-thorization for you if you qualify. Screenings in Cali-fornia are provided by Life Line Mobile Screening.

Gov. Branstad designates Falls Prevention Day

Governor Branstad has declared Sept. 23, the first day of fall, as Falls Pre-vention Awareness Day in Iowa.

The Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) Bureau of Emergency Services’ Trauma System Advisory Council; IDPH Office of Injury, Disability and Violence Prevention; Iowa Department on Ag-ing (IDA) and the Iowa Falls Prevention Coalition join the Governor in this recognition.

“Among all age groups, Iowa averages 2,000 fall-related deaths each year,” said Binnie LeHew of the IDPH Office of Disability, Injury and Violence Pre-vention. “Among Iowa’s older citizens, falls are the leading cause of injury hos-pitalizations and emergen-cy room visits and the lead-ing cause of injury deaths for those over age 65- yet falls can be prevented.” The most recent data from IDPH shows older Iowans had 29,590 falls-related emergency department visits and hospitalizations. These fall-related injuries resulted in 429 fatalities and approximately $135 million in hospitalization charges.”

Falls are not a natu-ral consequence of aging; however, aging does con-tribute to factors that in-crease the risk of falling, including reduced strength in lower extremities, use of four or more medications, poor vision, chronic health problems and unsafe home conditions.

“When older adults fall, it often leads to a loss of independence and reduced mobility,” said Iowa De-partment on Aging (IDA) Director Donna Harvey. “Research indicates that fall prevention programs for high-risk older adults have a net-cost savings of almost $9 in benefits to so-ciety for each $1 invested. Through appropriate risk management, falls are pre-ventable.”

There are ways older Io-

wans can prevent falls:• Take your time - get

out of chairs slowly. Sit for a moment before getting out of bed.

• Wear sturdy, well-fit-ting shoes with low heels and non-slip soles.

• See an eye specialist once a year. Poor vision can increase your chances of falling.

• Be aware that some medications have side ef-fects that can cause dizzi-ness.

• Increase physical ac-tivity - regular exercise increases balance and strength.

Follow these tips to make living areas safer and help reduce the risk of falls:

• Use non-slip mats in the bathtub and on shower floors.

• Have grab bars in-stalled next to the toilet and in the tub or shower.

• Have handrails on both sides of stairways.

• Improve lighting in the entire home.

• Remove tripping haz-ards like throw rugs and clutter in walkways.

For more information about falls prevention, visit www.idph.state.ia.us/FallPrevention/. For more healthy living resources for older Iowans and/or disabled adults, visit www.iowaaging.gov/healthy-lifestyles/fall-prevention.
