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.

25,000 acres of private

land open to hunting
in Iowa this fall

More than 25,000 acres of private land open
to hunting this fall Iowa hunters this fall will have access to hunt on more than 25,000 acres of private land on
132 sites around the state as part of a program that helps
landowners improve habitat on portions of their land in
exchange for allowing hunter access.

The Iowa Habitat and Access Program (IHAP)
provide expertise and funding to landowners who are interested in improving wildlife habitat on their property.
Landowner participation varies from three to 10 years
depending upon the contracts.

Hunters told us they felt access to private land
was an important step to improving their hunting experience and to attracting new hunters to the outdoors.
We were fortunate to have this opportunity to provide
them with access to these areas through the IHAP, said
Kelly Smith, private lands program coordinator for the
Iowa Department of Natural Resources who manages the
IHAP.

Areas are posted with signs, are regularly patrolled by Iowa DNR conservation officers and will be
treated like public hunting ground, with the noted exception that it is private property.

Hunters should respect private property, stay
on the land enrolled in the program and pick up after
themselves, Smith said. This program is only available
because landowners were willing to participate in it.

Iowa hunting continued on page 11....

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,

even in the summer though by the 50s short sleeve dress

shirts were on the market for men and it became more acceptable to wear a short sleeve dress shirt and nice pair of
slacks and loafers or oxfords no tennis shoes. But now,
I truly am appalled that women and maturing girls are
not only wearing shorts but short shorts! A few of them,
in my opinion, should never wear them outside their own
homes. I dont mind blue jeans and a casual shirt (leave
the raggy T at home) and I, myself, am comfortable in
dressy sandals in the summertime. Strange thing I do
notice is that the little girls, up to pre-teens, love to wear
their prettiest, frilliest outfits and strut their stuff. Thatll
change. Younger ones reading this will call me old
fashioned but I wear primarily pant outfits not jeans,
and my matching handbags, purses and jewelry. I guess
we all have our quirks whether it is pranks or jokes on
friends or our preference of dress. I admit I like the modern stuff and dress of today just that everything has
its place and church is not the beach, the exercise place or
Hollywood Oscar night. Yep, I have my memories and
admit I like some of the freedoms we experience now
but like the old saying, All things in moderation. What
memories or observations have I stirred up in you?

The Wall of Sin

The Great Wall of China is breathtaking. The

construction of it began over four hundred years before
Christ and was completed in the 1600s. It is built over
some of the toughest terrain imaginable. It could be
stretched from Georgia to London and still have wall left
over. All that effort to stay separated from their enemies!
But as huge as the Great Wall is, its not as big as the wall
of sin that separates man from God. I know sin is not a
politically correct term these days, but its what separates
man from God. No one can overcome this barrier on his
or her own. God, with His love, offers us a way through
Jesus. His sacrificial death, and our faith in Him removes
the carrier from our lives.
Do you feel a barrier or a separation between you and
God? We need to look at our faith and His Word to see
what Gods Word says about our Savior, Jesus. Jesus and
only Jesus can remove the wall between you and God. In
the removal you will find last peace and an abundance of
love every day. Its not difficult, just turn to Jesus and
ask for His help.

Prayer. Lord, when our problems seem like insurmountable walls, help tear down that wall. In Jesus
Holy Name. Amen

THE GOWRIE NEWS

John Olson, Dayton, served 25 years

in Army Air Corps, helped local groups
Local philanthripist help ambulance service, library. . .

John Olson was a
resident at Grandview
Care Center in Dayton for
several years. He really
did like the facility, the
residents, and staff. This
isnt home, but I still enjoy
it here, he had stated.

John was in his
90s when he passed away
at Grandview Health Care

Center.

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
Grandview Care Center too.

I have really believed in the ambulance squad.
They have needed help and Ive been pleased to give

them some money, he said at that time. The ambulance

volunteers are great people and do such a good job for our
community.

John was an avid reader and he helped the library, which has surely needed the financial assistance.
Former Librarian Ruth Anderson was kind enough to
see John once a week or so, visiting him for an hour and
bringing him books. He liked historical novels, non-fiction, and sometimes westerns.

The following information was taken from an
interview of John back in 2008. Part of this interview was
previously published in the Dayton Review.

I havent had to worry about my home, he
said. Deb (a neighbor) watches my house closely. Angie Lambert does a great job cleaning my house once a
month. It looks better than it ever did. And Jacob Graves
is very dependable on mowing my grass. John lives four
blocks away from Grandview so he gets home quite often
to check things out. He has a cousin who is taking care of
his Pomeranian dog. They had a few cats, then a litter
of kittens, then another litter and now there are 23 cats or
so. But my little dog enjoys being out in the country.

I like talking to people and I seem to get visitors every day (an average of six or so stop in to see
him). While I was visiting his sister from Seattle called
him.

John has a private room which is comfortable

for him and close to administrator Deb Koenig.

Shes doing a first rate
job here, said John. She
has really helped this care
center. He also had high
praise for the Director of
Nurses Mary Crosby. Deb
Koenig, incidentally, is a
graduate of Dayton High
School.

John
admitted
he doesnt seem to have
the ambition to do much

youre 91, you are entitled

His wife passed away several years ago and he was

The Dayton Rescue Squad provided ambulance
service once again for the Dayton Rodeo.

The Dayton Rescue Squad was assisted by area
ambulance services. The Gowrie ambulance service provided ambulance service on Saturday and Monday for the
Dayton Rodeo. The Stratford Ambulance Service provided ambulance service on Friday and Sunday for the
Dayton Rodeo.
Dayton Rescue has four
EMTs, several drivers

The Dayton Rescue Service currently has four
EMT (Emergency Medical Technicians) on the rescue
squad and one more person is in training.

The four EMTs are Bobbi Jean Martin, Craig
Johnson, Nick Dunbar and Megan Johnson.

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.

People interested in assisting the Dayton Res-

cue Squad are invited to attend meetings held the second

Monday of every month at 6:30 p.m. at the Dayton Rescue building.

Main Street in Lehigh

Main Street fire in Lehigh, April 3, 1901

Bucket Brigade formed...

It was three o'clock Wednesday morning April 3rd,

1901, when flames were discovered in the Ross hardware
building, the southernmost building of Main Street's
east side block. It was thought the fire was caused by
spontaneous combustion.
When the alarm sounded, men quickly gathered to
check the fire, but to no avail. Fixtures were removed
from the post office which occupied the annex on the
north side of the Ross building. A bucket brigade formed
in the street and began a futile attempt to put out the fire.
There was a slight breeze from the south and as the fire
started on the north side of the block, it had to work its
way against the wind. This allowed time for occupants to
remove most of their goods.
Buildings occupied by the post office, W. H. Rodd,
Lehigh Valley Savings Bank, W.J. Young, O. J. Williams,
Mrs. Hattie Brundage, O. Albee, William Barrowman,
John Tuel and Dave Cunningham were reduced to ashes
- as estimated $12,000 loss.
The fire burned for three hours and at the end of
that time only the southernmost building in the block
remained. William Wood's saloon was entered with

Corey pressed brick and, with the help of men pouring

water on its roof, withstood the heat admirably.

The following week most of the insurance claims had
been adjusted and plans for rebuilding were underway.
This time all of the new buildings would be made of
Lehigh Brick.
On April 12, 1901 Fuller reported that Lehigh fire
chief, D.T. Dale, was attempting to repair "that old rattletrap of a thing they call a fire engine. Might as well dump
it in the river and save expenses."

Even after the devastating fire, Lehigh went without
adequate fire protection. In July, 1906 they purchased
a 3600 pound fire engine from a Minneapolis firm for
$1,800.
"The gasoline engine can be started in five minutes
and can throw water from a two and one half inch hose."
This may have placated some who were pressing for a
water system because it wasn't until 1912 that the town
issued $15,000 in bonds for the purpose of installing a
combined water works and an electric light system.

The following year it was necessary to issue $5,000
in additional bonds to complete the project.

Pipeline opponents meet in Pilot Mound;

One spill, one hour may pose threat
Some believe water is threatened for Boone, Des Moines. . .

Pilot Mound, Iowa: The Bakken Pipeline Resistance Coalition callws for Iowans to join them at the
Des Moines River in central Iowa on Saturday, September 10 to protect the river from further harm.

The group met at the Pilot Mound Community
Center (Pilot Street, Pilot Mound, IA) a on Saturday. After a short meeting and training, they move to the E18
bridge and then the construction sites nearby to engage
in acts of peaceful protection of the river.

They invited people who are able to join with
them for a Friday evening potluck at 6:30 also at the Pilot Mound Community Center. Following potluck, some
camped at their base camp near Nortons Ford Access.

Their actions this weekend follow a week of
witnessing along the river in which River Guardians have
helped to catch Dakota Access working and moving soil
in the rain--a violation of the law--and temporary stop
construction. They are part of a group of Iowans who
established a camp along the banks of the Des Moines
River on Saturday, September 3rd near the river and plan
to remain as long as needed to protect the river from Dakota Access Bakken crude oil pipeline. They call for
others to join them in their peaceful acts of witnessing
and protection.
Is water for Boone,
City of Des Moines threatened?

Dakota Access continues to move heavier construction equipment to begin drilling beneath the river
this week.

Mark Edwards, a river protector from Boone,
Iowa, shared: One spill, for one hour, has the potential
to leave one million gallons of toxic crude in this river.
With the recent earthquake this past weekend and shock
waves affecting Iowa we could see this buried pipeline
leaking into this river at any time. This means the city of
Boone would be without water for a long time. Also, the

By LaVerne Johnson

This is what happens when your century farm is

Should this be done to your property without
your consent? he asked.

Stop eminent domain he urges.

will have to make other plans for water.

Who decided this was worth the risk? Three
people hand-picked, politically appointed by our Governor was all it took to legitimize confiscating personal
property and giving an out of state corporation the power
over the common good. Who stands to gain from this
deal? The local economy will receive pocket change for a
few weeks as out of state workers buy groceries and gas,
motels and campsites. But, this oil will flow to the Gulf
to be loaded on boats traveling to the far east for someone
elses fortune. A Canadian company just purchased 49%
of the parent company so they will be able to send Canadian oil overseas this way also, Edwards continued.

The Standing Rock Sioux Camp of Sacred
Stones has called for global acts of solidarity September
3-17th. More information about the groups weekend action and upcoming actions can be found at their website
nobakken.com.

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.

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.

SV Jaguars edged 16-14 by 4th ranked

SCC in close defensive battle Friday
Each team has two interceptions. . .
By Glenn Schreiber

The Southeast Valley Jaguars lost a heart-breaker Friday night 16-14 to fourth ranked South Central
Calhoun.

The Jaguars had a chance to tie the game on a
two-point conversion but the snap was fumbled.

We could not capitalize on good filed position
and SCC could not get things going, said coach Mike
Swieter.

Swieter continued, Losing is very hard and it
always hurts but we know as coaches that the kids gave
everything they had tonight and we could not be prouder
of them for that.

We feel we made big improvements from last
week and if we can continue to do that we will win a lot of
games. We know we have lost the last two games to very
good teams and both were ranked 4th and 5th respectfully.

Asserted Swieter, A highlight was holding preseason elite all state player Kody Case to 48 total yards.
The Jags will get this turned around.
A defensive battle

The game was a defensive battle with the
scored tied at zero at the end of one quarter.

In one early series Aaron Swieter had an 11 yard
run but a few plays later Southeast Valley was sacked and
was forced to punt again.

SCC has nice 14 play drive in the second quarter but Dakota Jaeschke intercepted the ball on the three
yard line and returned it 22 yards.

But SCC forced a 3 and out. Three plays later
SCC striked first with a 51 yard touchdown. They faked
it to Kody Case and we bit on it and they got behind us
for the touchdown. Kody Case ran in the 2 point conversion

The Jags made an excellent drive before half but
took another sack on 4th down on the nine yard line and
SCC led at the half 8-0.
Jaguar passing game
held to 94 yards

SCC came out to stop the Jags pass and did a
good job with that, said coach Swieter. We were happy
how our line responded this week and were able to pound
the ball when needed.

Quarterback Nolan Brand was 7-20 for 94 yards
and one touchdown. The tough SCC defense also made
two interceptions.

Dakota Jaeschke had two receptions for 33 yards
including a 22 yard touchdown. Nolan Johnson had two
catches for 17 yards and Nyles Johnson, Kaleb Jondle
and Aaron Swieter had one reception apiece.

Kaleb Jondle did rush for 124 yards on 19 carries.
Defensive stats

Kyle Jondle led in total tackles with 8.5. He
was followed by Alex Pliner, 5.5; and Aaron Swieter, 4.

Pliner led in solo tackles with two and Jaden
Cline had one. Dakota Jaeschke had two interceptions.
Jags tie game

Jags The Jags started the second half with a nice
10 play drive that ended in an interception. But SV did
not fold and forced another SCC punt.

The run game started clicking with Kaleb Jondle running off 6-11-4 yard gains then Aaron Swieter had
a 9 yard then back to Kaleb for 11 and a 9 yard touchdown. The two point conversion was made with Nolan
Brand passing to Dakota Jaeschke.

Jags forced another 3 and out and the scored was
tied at 8-8 at the end of three quarters.

John Olson Senior Story...

continued from page 6...

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.

SCC has its dagger

on interception

SCC executed a 13 play drive but Dakota
Jaescke got his second pick on the one yard line. This
was a huge play, said Swieter.

SCC stuffed the run on the first play to the 1/2
yard line. Coach called an audible on the next play to a
pass from the line and Dakota Jaescke was wide open but
it came in too hot to catch.

On third down the Jags ran a slant and SCC
read it perfectly and picked it off on the 4 yard line.
Said Swieter, This was the dagger that the Jags could not
afford.

Three plays later SCC scored a touchdown and
Kody Case ran for the two point conversion.
Jags comeback

We could have quit and think the game was
over but the Jags mounted a three minute drive and
Nolan Brand hit Dakota Jaeschke on fourth down for an
11 yard touchdown.

The Jags had the chance to tie the game but fumbled the snap on the two point conversion and never got
the chance to run the play.

Southeast Valley attempted the on-side kick but
SCC recovered and won the game.
