It had been a Best Western Motel. Right from the beginning, there was “backbiting” “Slander” “false rumors” gossip being spread that did a lot of damage. The first rumor, people heard this place was full. Endeavors were made to correct the false rumors. Ads were placed in every paper to welcome people for tours, and to have lunch. I have been living here over a year and would like to counteract the second biggest rumor, that it is too expensive. For the price I pay, the care is exceptional. The most recent rumor is that we are closing. This is very untrue - we do have new management. However, the doors will remain open as long as there is even one person living here.

After months of contemplation on whether to stay open or close, to sell or not, we will begin our closing sales Monday July, 11th, with plans to be closed some time in August. Times are changing due to technology but also the economy and Main Streets such as Rhinelander having a difficult time competing with the big stores. 18 years ago Brown Street Books opened its doors, the same time as Amazon. We were holding our own until on-line sales cut into our sales with their aggressive discounts and now their e-reader. Foot traffic in my store has decreased steadily over the last year which has affected sales. “Paper” books are selling on line oft times cheaper than my cost, and Kindle, Nook, and E Readers are nibbling away at independent book stores such as mine with E-Books, making it financially difficult to keep my bookstore solvent. And I understand that people need to watch how they spend their money. We are so fortunate to have a wonderful library downtown. I have been blessed with wonderful booksellers, many faithful customers, and landlords who are great to work with. Owning my own store has been an extremely rewarding experience which I will always treasure. The decision to close is so sad for me because I love my book store and all the memories such as our Harry Potter midnight parties and when author Jan Brett came to Rhinelander. In the past month when customers came in saying, “We're so glad you are still here”, I thought “will I be able to still be here? How? Wrestling since January on how I could still remain open, May and June sales told me I needed to close. To customers who were searching for obscure books which often times we were able to locate for themfor all the special orders we were able to get for customers - and for those who had no computer or did not feel FOR SALE: JUST ARRIVED new trailer of used, but nice reconditioned refrigerators, stoves, washers & dryers. And More HUGE SELECTION! Good selection of reconditioned TV's. AC LIQUIDATORS Antigo, WI. Phone 715-623-3791. comfortable ordering on line - we will no longer be able to fill their needs and that is so heartbreaking for me. The number of area book clubs have grown from ones like Over readers Anonymous (possibly the area's longest running book club), to over 35 book clubs. They registered their monthly selections with us which was so wonderful seeing all the book lovers connecting with others, the choices of books they discussed, to be able to suggest possible choices for their club's next read but also to have their book selection in our store for them. To now face my faithful customers will be extremely difficult as I feel I am letting them down for they are losing a local, independent business with an owner and friendly, knowledgeable staff who have worked so hard these past years striving to give customers the best service possible. You may keep up to date on my Going Out of Business Sale on Brown Street Books Face Book page or call 715-362-5111. We have been the best little store we knew how to be. But now, borrowing the title of Joshua Ferris' 2007 novel, “Then We Came to the End”, we will no longer be a part of independently owned stores in downtown Rhinelander.

JACOBSON, 95, passed from this life on June 27, 2011 at Rapid City Regional Hospital. She was born on March 12, 1916 in Buhl, MN to Croatian immigrants Katherine and Martin Lulich. She spent her early childhood in Saxon, WI. At the early age of 12, her family moved to Laona, WI. She attended high school in Laona and was the valedictorian of the Class of 1933. After high school she attended Business College in Milwaukee and in 1935 she married Marvin Guth, a cheese maker from Saxon. They settled in Phillips, WI where they raised a family of four children and operated a cheese factory. In 1945, they decided to build a supper club in Phillips; it was called the Skyline and was known throughout the area for its great food and the wonderful music Katherine provided each evening on the Hammond Organ for the continuous flow of customers. After six years of operating the supper club, they decided to sell and get back in the dairy business which was less demanding. Another move, this time to Argonne; where they purchased the Argonne Dairy, which she and her husband operated until his death in 1957. Two years later, Katherine grew restless and purchased a Children’s Clothing Store in Rhinelander called Tot to Teen followed by the purchase of another store with Ladies fashions called Smartwear. In 1964 she met and later married Clarence Jacobson of Rapid City, SD. They resided in Rapid City and once more Katherine was compelled to enter the business world. She opened a Ladies dress shop called Katherine’s and operated that business for five years at which time she decided to do some traveling. After retirement and considerable travel experience, she and Clarence enjoyed keeping their home and lawn looking perfect and having the kids and grandkids visit. Katherine was a strong determined woman. Feisty and tenacious, she had an appetite for adventure and an ambitiousness that wasn’t thwarted by a little dirt or hard work. She loved the Lord, her Church, and her family; and was protective of all of these. Survivors include two daughters, Marlene (Leo) Pelek of Largo, FL; Jacquelyn King, San Pedro, CA; two sons, Karl (Colette) Guth, Hiles, WI; Martin (Jean) Guth, Las Cruces, NM; eleven grandchildren; twelve great grandchildren; one brother, Donald (Mary) Tadich, Bloomington, MN; two nieces and a nephew. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husbands, a granddaughter, son-in-law, a niece, and just recently her only sister Rose, on June 17, 2011. Mass of Christian Burial was offered at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, June 30, 2011 at Blessed Sacrament Church with Rev. Janusz Korban presiding. Interment will take place at a later date at St. Peter’s Cemetery in Eagle River, WI. Her online guestbook is available to sign at www.osheimschmidt.com ANTON "TONY" MAJEWSKI, age 85, of Armstrong Creek, passed away Wednesday, July 6, 2011 at the Oscar G.

Sheriff’s Department Investigates Burglary On 6/23/11, the Forest County Sheriff’s Dept. Responded to a burglary in progress at a residence near Roberts Lake in the Town of Freedom. Attentive neighbors contacted the Sheriff’s Office after they observed three subjects who were in the process of burglarizing a residence and taking a motorcycle and an ATV. The suspects fled the scene and a manhunt ensued. The Sheriff along with Forest Co. Deputies, the City of Crandon Police, the Town of Laona Police, the Town of Wabeno Police & K-9, and a DNR Warden responded and took one suspect into custody after a short time. Further investigation let to search warrants being executed in Oconto County where two more suspects were arrested. The search warrants produced several stolen items including numerous guns, electronic equipment, a stolen car, a second stolen ATV and a marijuana grow operation. Sheriff Dennee credited the neighbors who were attentive enough to take down the license plate of the vehicle involved and gave the officers the description of the suspects. Sheriff Dennee also credited the teamwork between the several law enforcement agencies involved and the District Attorneys Office for the hard work and determination put forth on an investigation that continued to grow over several days. The investigation is on-going as new information is being received about other crimes.

You can make it a reality and help preserve a Wisconsin tradition, and the Department of Natural Resources will help. It’s an exciting time to be in sports, rod and gun and conservation clubs. Club members have a focused sense of purpose and challenge -- find the next generation of hunters. Think about recruiting participants from your community. Reach beyond the local hunter education class to other adult friends and their children. Hunting offers an opportunity to meet new people, exercise, connect with nature, spend quality time with family and friends, and have the opportunity to bring home high quality food. Let's share it and see if we can introduce hunting to at least 2,000 new people this year. I know a lot of hunters who want to help, and I think we can do it. The reality facing hunting in Wisconsin and other states is the majority of participants are Baby Boomer generation, marching through middle age into their 60s with reduced participation in the more recent generations. The gradual loss of the hunting population threatens to reduce the relevance of hunting to our strong conservation community. In the challenge there is also opportunity -- all those baby boomers also represent an army of qualified mentors for the next decade. Wisconsin citizens recognize the importance of hunters to conservation in our state and they strongly support us. It’s up to us as hunters – as well as business organizations, youth groups, churches and neighborhood organizations -- to make sure that great tradition continues. A good way to introduce people to hunting is a Learn to Hunt event. Nearly 1,000 joined a Learn to Hunt turkey event this past spring. If your group hosted an event, make sure you send in the final roster to the DNR at Learn to Hunt Coordinator LE/8, PO Box 7921, Madison, WI, 53707. The processes and application forms sponsors need to organize a Learn to Hunt event are available on the DNR website. Sponsors should work closely with the local wildlife biologist or warden when planning an event, and ensure at least one of the event instructors is a certified Hunter Education Instructor. Remember, this opportunity is open to novice hunters of all ages. Consider planning an event for parents who don’t hunt and include their children. Mentors are screened by the DNR using background checks at least two weeks before the hunt. There is also a reimbursement program through which groups can receive $25 per novice hunter to help cover the costs of hosting a learn-tohunt event. If you are interested in hosting an event or have any questions about LTH, see the DNR website: or contact Warnke at the number below. The DNR initiated the Learn to Hunt program in 1998 to provide novice hunters of all ages opportunities to experience a hunt with - Twilight Rates - Will begin at 3 p.m. throughout the months of June & July.

Etc Info session July 12 on Nicolet College’s new green building design degree Anyone interested in learning green building design and construction techniques is invited to attend a Nicolet College information session on the college’s Architectural Technology associate degree Tuesday, July 12, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in Tamarack Center Room 117. The new two-year associate degree includes classes that cover sustainable home building practices such as Building Green Residential, Alternative Energy Overview, and Principles of Sustainability, as well as traditional residential design and construction. “Green construction is a clear trend in the industry,” said Jeff Labs, Architectural Technology and Building Trades instructor at Nicolet. “Students who graduate from the program will have multiple skills with a new technology. This will give them a definite advantage in landing that first job after college and advancing in the field as they get more experience.” The information session, which is free and open to the public, will cover the classes necessary to earn the degree, job prospects after graduation, as well as information on college’s admissions process, financial aid, scholarships and academic advising. Classes will begin at the start of Fall Semester Aug. 23. Nicolet created the new degree after consulting with more than 30 area professionals from constructionrelated businesses. Repeatedly these individuals said there was solid demand for graduates with design and construction skills that focus on environmental sustainability. “Increasingly people who are building new homes want to incorporate energy-saving and other environmentally-sustainable features in their homes,” Labs added “Graduates from the Architectural Technology program will provide local construction contractors with a greater ability to provide these services which, in turn, will help these businesses be successful.” Information will also be available about the college’s admissions process, financial aid, scholarships and academic advising. For more details, contact the Nicolet College Welcome Center at (715) 365-4493, 1-800-544-3039, ext. 4493, TDD (715) 365-4558 or 711 relay; or Jeff Labs at (715) 365-4675, 1-800-544-3039, ext. 4675, or by email at [email protected].

She will fight to bring jobs and prosperity back to the Northwoods. Kim knows it's hard enough to run a business in this economy without having to report every single cow, chicken and horse that you own to the government. That is why Kim is running to restore common sense business practice to the State Senate and fight for lower taxes and smaller government; so people can be allowed to live their lives, run their business and work their land as they know best. Kim also knows how this climate of high taxes and regulations adversely affects jobs in Wisconsin. The 3,000 jobs lost in the 12th Senate district since 2008 isn't just a statistic, it's a stark reality. Two of those jobs lost are her children, who have been forced to move out of the state because of the job climate in Wisconsin. Kim will fight to foster a climate that will bring about positive job growth in Wisconsin and attract jobs and prosperity to the Northwoods.

The weather was beautiful, music was fantastic and there was plenty of food and drink for everyone. The two day celebration started Friday night on the corner of Lake Street and Madison with a DJ and plenty of room to dance. Saturday at noon, the parade marched down Lake Ave. The streets were packed with people of all ages and the floats were loaded with candy to pass out to the children. Alyssa Ingram was this years 4th of July Queen and got to ride atop the fire truck in the beginning of the parade. She was accompanied by Michael Childers, last years King. Winners of the Floats were; Mihalko hauling storm damage, Clare Russell, Kirk Schallock, Vets of Foreign Wars and the Chamber Choice was Hotel Crandon. The Crandon Fire Department held their auction to a full house, there was cash and Brewer tickets raffled off. The fireworks started at 10 p.m. This year, the fireworks were relocated to the hill west of City Hall so that there residue from the display would not damage any houses or yards. It was a great show that lit up the night skies. After the fireworks show, the celebration went back down to Madison Street where the band played for the crowd until midnight. The weekend was a big success and a great time to be with family and friends.
