Beginning August 1 Dan Fox will be
the new principal for the new Southeast Valley
Middle School in Burnside. The entire com-
plex will be the new middle school under the
new whole grade sharing plan with Prairie Val-
ley.
Previously an eighth grade math teacher
at Woodside Middle School in Saydel, Iowa,
Fox instructed pre-algebra and high school lev-
el algebra.
Fox has had a strong background in
middle schools as a teacher and as a coach. He
coached middle school track and wrestling, and
high school wrestling and football at Saydel.
Coaching gave me a little bit of a differ-
ent perspective working with students outside
of the school setting, said Fox. That I think
allows you to build strong relationships with
students. I think thats a strength that I have. It
will defnitely help me as principal.
Fox applied for the principal position at
Southeast Valley Middle School for a leader-
ship opportunity.
I like the idea of being in the middle
school and being principal of a middle school.
It allows you to make decisions that impact a lot
of students, said Fox. The teachers get to have
a big impact in the classroom, but as a principal
you can have an impact on all the students in the

The Dayton City Council held a regular
meeting on Wednesday, June 11.
Grandview Apartments will have ap-
proximately two blocks of new water main in-
stalled. An estimate of $38,584.06 for Dayton
Farm Drainage was approved to provide them
with equipment, materials and labor.
The city plans to reduce these costs by
supplying the materials needed for the project
and a dump truck.
Concrete is being moved from the city
storage area. The area currently storing the con-
crete will be barricaded and an advertisement
will be placed for the availability of this concrete
to Dayton residents. A new site for material stor-
age was also discussed, but was tabled.
A sidewalk building permit was ap-
proved for Douglas Boker at 27 Second St
Northwest in Dayton . A building permit for a
garage at 407 Second St. Northeast for Meredith
Gallentine was also approved.
On July 9 a public hearing will be held
to consider a $2 increase in garbage fees for
customers who use TCB Sanitation per month.
Landfll fees to haulers have increased according
to Staci Blair, TCB Sanitation representative.
Costs for the asphalt and concrete re-
surfacing from Second Street and Fourth Ave.
Northwest will be collected. Also, the sanitary
sewer mains in that area will be televised.
On the fre district board Mayor Richards
Travis appointed Mark Knudtson for the city
council representative for the Dayton Fire Dis-
trict Board.
A possibility for a grant funding a light-
ed school crossing signal at West Skillet Ave,
Second St. Northwest and Second St. Southwest
brought to attention during the meeting.
An agreement for a certifed water and
wastewater operator from Dayton to help Lehigh
was drafted. Currently Lehigh does not have a
certifed water and wastewater operator.
The Dayton City Council will apply for
the CDBG Housing grant this year. Grant funds
for the rodeo seating area stair repair was pre-
sented by the Celebration Committee. Changes
for the golf cart ordinance and vehicle noise ordi-
nances from the July 9 meeting were considered.
The recent demolition of the house east
and across the alley from Express Yourself Em-
broidery and Dayton Community Grocery was
discussed. Reports about the curb and gutter
damage from downtown sidewalk construction

Remembering my father
during Independence Day. . .
My father called me about four years ago
on a Tuesday noon. He seemed so much at peace
and contentment, knowing he would die in about
four months.
It was a wonderful 45-minute conversation
and I didnt have a clue. Our family was planning
a large family reunion in about two months, but
my father had other ideas. Three days later he died
peacefully at home with my mother at his side. He
was ready to leave this earth after a long struggle
with cancer.
My father was the second oldest of six
children of Charles and Alice Schreiber, rural La-
dysmith, WI. My grandparents had a dairy farm
in north central Wisconsin, and the land was rocky
and not very fertile, but ideal for pastureland and
dairy cattle.
Everyone was up at 5 a.m. for the many
chores that involved dairy farming. The guernsey
cows were milked twice a day, and there werent
any milking machines. It was all done literally by
hand. Dairy farming in those days was agonizing
manual labor that never stopped.
His mother baked, cooked and washed
clothes incessantly. Family values were instilled
and mother Alice had two passions besides the
welfare of the family: The Bible and Church, and
being president of the WTCU.
My grandmother was a Potter and many
of her family members were chronic alcohol-
ics. Years after my father and his brothers left the
household, my grandparents adopted two Potter
children whose parents were alcoholics and desti-
tute.
My father attended a one-room country
school, common in rural Wisconsin. He once at-
tended the Rusk County Fair with 15 cents in his
pocket. He did attend high school, but didnt have
time for extracurricular activities---there was too
much work on the farm.
After graduating from High School my fa-
ther got a job on the Soo Line Railroad. He met my
mother Rosalie, but World War II was in progress.
In the Army Air Corps (later to become the U..S.
Air Force) my father corresponded faithfully with
my mother, and Dad wrote some touching letters
my mother still treasures. In some of the letters he
wrote poetry, which is a pretty good technique in
courtship.
Glenn (my Dads frst name), fnished his
military service in Okinawa. The war was con-
cluding and the United States was occupying the
island. But there were many Japanese soldiers hid-
ing in caves, coming out at night hoping to steal
food and supplies at U.S. bases. Sometimes it
worked, but often they were captured.
Glenn Lloyd met a lifetime friend in the
Army Air Corps, Harold Marcum. Harold returned
to his native state of Ohio, married his sweetheart
Marjorie, and every year of his life (starting in the
early ffties) he sojourned with Marjorie and their
children to Wisconsin, staying at a resort or rent-
ing a lake cabin near Ladysmith. At frst the Mar-
cums came for a week, then two weeks, and then a
month in northern Wisconsin. Harold and my Dad
were very close friends.
Dad married my mother soon after getting
back from the War and he returned to the Soo Line
Railroad in Ladysmith. He worked at the Soo Line
depot in Ladysmith for 43 years before retiring.
The other depot personnel included many likeable
characters, and unfortunately several were chain
smokers. As a youth I recall going into the de-
pot and the air was incredibly thick with cigarette
smoke.
My father had a strong work ethic (from
the farm). He worked hard, at the depot and at
home. My parents were frugal and somehow, after
starting with nothing, over the years they managed
to remodel and enlarge their home; buy fve acres
of land across the highway with a horse barn and
horses for their sons; and build a cabin on Lake
Flambeau near Tony, WI.
Dad was outgoing and was very charis-
matic. He took our family to church every Sunday,
and after church we sometimes took a drive into
the Wisconsin countryside, stopping to visit peo-
ple.
My father lived long enough to see one of
my sons enter the Air Force. Daniel has been de-
ployed twice, one in Iraq and he just recently re-
turned from Afghanistan.
More than just
a gathering spot!
