Insurance said of how busy the Rockwell City based insurance agency has been since a June 30 hailstorm hit the area. The severe weather hit a multicounty area but the really big hailstones were concentrated in Rockwell city, according to Hartwig. Damage resulted from not only the size of the hailstones but also because many of them had a jagged shape. Roof damage, vehicle damage and siding damage were all reported. There was also crop damage reported, with some fields devastated by the storm. Roofing contractors were quick to arrive on the scene. Mary Warner of Agents, Inc. urged caution when dealing with roofing contractors from out of the area. It is best to contact your insurance agent before reaching any agreement. Possibly the hardest hit Rockwell City business was Champion Chrysler Center. Joe Berger noted that not only was there extensive roof damage at the business, but there was damage to vehicles outside. Berger noted that one bright spot in all of this, customers willing to accept slightly damaged vehicles should be able to get good deals right now. The two hailstones being held in a hand and another hailstone pictured were all found on Like Street in Rockwell City. The unusual circular design of cracks \resulted from a hailstone hitting a vehicle parked on Fifth Street in Rockwell City south of the courthouse square.

All except the parade through downtown Rockwell City take place at the Expo grounds in Rockwell City. (2013 Graphic-Advocate file photo) At the Lake City Library on June 28, the storytime activity involved creating slime. Among those who participated in the event were Samantha Hiler and Warren Hiler, proudly displaying their bags of the gooey substance.

The grammar was terrible, there were misspellings, and typos galore. I just about hit the delete button. Then I realized the email was from an acquaintance, a highly educated engineer. I had to reread the email several times to decipher what he wanted. As a linguistics professor in college once told me, “You can have the greatest idea in the world, but if you can’t communicate, it’s worthless.” Education in liberal arts (literature, language, art, music, philosophy, history, math, psychology, science), because of the lack of job opportunities, have taken a hit lately. I take personal affront to that, especially after reading the above email. My degree is in English, and I’m proud of it. Contrary to what some career advisers are advising today, because of our hightech digitized world, I would still recommend a liberal arts education, the cost of college education and employment opportunities be danged. Let’s get one thing straight. I have never believed that the purpose of education was to secure a good job. Call me naive, but education for the sake of education is what I believed in. Still do. This philosophy has served me well. When I graduated with my degree in English (non-teaching) from Iowa State University in 1975, strapped with guaranteed student loans totaling $14,000 (adjusted for inflation, that’s about the average for graduates today), and knowing full well that there were few jobs for a graduate with my degree, I went to work in a factory. Low and behold, guess what happened? I began getting promotions. Why? Because of my communication skills, honed through a liberal arts education. Factory management loved my interoffice memos, problem solving ability, and report writing. Various positions I held within the factory environment: machine operator, machinist, supervisor, corporate policy writer, vendor certification, safety director, EEO Officer, and Human Resources Administrator. By the way, the president of this very successful, high-tech company, had a degree in history. That was career number one. Career number two has been insurance sales. Once again, it was my communication skills (and work ethic) that made this a success. I typically started each day, not by memorizing sales pitches, but by reading— anything from fiction, to the Bible, to self-help books, to history: education for the sake of education. Knowledge is power. Now, at the age of 66, and in semi-retirement, I’m not sure I could be enjoying life any more than I am right now. I write a weekly newspaper column that’s in some twenty-odd newspapers, have a photography studio, and have a blast making sculptures out of junk—all very liberal artsy. My son and daughter both have great careers with their degrees in liberal arts. One of my friends along the way, with his graduate degree in Medieval Literature, was head of an IT department. No he didn’t write code, but he could sure communicate. In our fast-paced world of high technology and crisscrossing crises (immigration, scandals in the IRS and VA, Iraq, Benghazi, global warming, healthcare, flight 370, Sgt. Bergdahl, drones, to name a few), you’d darn better hope (trust me on this one) that we have someone who can tell us the history of the subject and, most importantly, be able to communicate it, i.e. someone with a liberal arts education. Speaking of art, I’m going to be the featured artist for the month of July at the Ft. Madison Area Art Association. There will be a reception in Ft. Madison on Friday, July 11, from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. I will have my sculptures and photography on display—drop in and give me a story idea. Life is fun, thanks to a liberal arts education.

Curt also reads his columns on www.lostlakeradio.com. There are two issues that I had intended to write up for the front page in this edition but that is no longer possible, so I’ll deal with them as commentary. One matter is the open dispute between the Calhoun County Supervisors and the Webster County Supervisors regarding a shared drainage district. The other matter is the less complicated but more significant issue of the Stewart Memorial Hospital Ambulance Service being incorporated into the Calhoun County Ambulance Service, not an absolute certainty but that looks like what is happening. There are advantages and disadvantages to dealing with local issues in a commentary. I can more directly deal with the concerns raised and tell readers the significance (at least what I conclude is the significance) of events. The disadvantage is that it’s a bit arrogant to shortcut the process of providing information to the public that they can then use to form independent analysis. One advantage regarding the issues at hand is that they will be ongoing matters that will provide further opportunities to give factual background. In the case of the Calhoun vs. Webster dispute, this has been an ongoing matter that I’ve reported on in previous issues. Apparently, Calhoun County’s counsel on drainage issues, Dave Wollenzien, has investigated the precedents regarding what can compel a drainage district to undergo a costly project even though the trustees of the district (in this case the supervisors of two counties), do not think the project is worthwhile, even if the majority of residents in the area assessed for drainage projects do not think the project is worthwhile. To illustrate my point most starkly, let’s use an analogy of an engineer issuing a report that a bridge is in imminent danger of collapse and must be closed to save lives. Of course, this analogy is qualitatively different from anything being discussed regarding the shared drainage district, but my point is that a public body sometimes does not have the authority to disregard expert advice presented in a formal report. In the hypothetical case of the bridge, the members of the public body do not need to be convinced of the engineer’s accuracy and the bridge does not need to collapse in order for there to be consequences resulting from refusing to follow the engineer’s recommendation. Wollenzien has found that courts have held that an engineer’s report on a drainage matter has, in some cases, the power of law. The Webster County supervisors have thought and, probably still do, that the trustees can decide The Graphic-Advocate Produced weekly and distributed Wednesdays by The Graphic-Advocate A Division of Mid-America Publishing Corporation — Hampton, Iowa MIDAS Transit serves Postal Information: USPS ISSN 301-820 Weekly Periodical Postage Paid at the Lake City Post Office, Lake City, Iowa 51449 Send address changes to The Graphic-Advocate, P.O.

Ricole Potts 1692 375th Street Lake City, IA 51449 712-887-0002 point where the county is already being asked to step in and help out. According to preliminary arrangements discussed over a couple of months between the hospital and the county EMS service, the county will assume control of operations. The hospital will still be involved but the city will step back. There will be two ambulances that still operate out of Lake City. The money that Lake City has built up in a fund earmarked for ambulance service will still have to be authorized by the city for use and must be used for an ambulance in Lake City. Eventually, Lake City will have no further capital investment in the ambulance service. The city will also have no more ongoing expense for the service, currently over $10,000 a year for capital fund contributions and the city’s share of liability insurance. At a June 30 meeting of the Lake City Council, council members expressed understanding of why the move is being contemplated, but felt a bit blindsided by the suddenness of the revelation and by the fact that misinformation about closing ambulance service in Lake City had already been the subject of a facebook campaign. The plan to deal with the situation is not necessarily an ideal one, but it’s probably the best course for the future. The matter was a discussion item only at the June 30 meeting and will be brought before the council in the future. There were a few factors regarding why these stories are not on the front page. We have been a person short at Mid-America Publishing for the last few weeks, a person who paginates several newspapers. In order to help her replacement, we have all been getting material emailed as soon as possible. The material I have sent has all been sent by the end of the workday on Friday, except for two or three items (usually front page items and perhaps my column). Out of consideration for the person handling the extra load, those remaining items have all been sent on the weekend or by the first thing Monday morning (before 9 a.m.), although normally the front page is not put together until between 1 and 2 p.m. on Monday. I knew we were encouraged to send what we could before the July 4 holiday, but Monday is still a workday as far as I was informed and I expected to get articles in the paper. I found out differently. As I write this Thursday evening, the front page has been completed using one small article and five rather large pictures. I don’t think I care for the look of that but journalists need to be flexible and try new things. against a project after a formal recommendation is solicited from an engineer. Fortunately, the Calhoun County supervisors have avoided language that could commit the shared district from future costly projects, in the case of the shared district, another project on top of a half-million dollar project just completed. The Webster County supervisors also believe that an attorney’s fees for advice on a drainage issue can be paid for out of the general fund. It is the opinion of the Calhoun County supervisors, based on legal counsel, that such expenses must be assessed to the drainage district. The latest issue is whether a vote was a tie or not at a joint meeting of the boards of supervisors held by conference call June 24. The vote was on a motion to pay Wollenzien $3,603.55 for services to the drainage district. At a July 1 conference call meeting, Assistant Webster County Attorney Ryan Baldridge, claimed that the motion did not pass because the vote was a tie even though one member of the Webster County supervisors was absent from the June 24 meeting. Calhoun County Supervisor Chairman Scott Jacobs, reading from the Iowa Code at the July 1 conference call, said, “Each member of the larger board shall cast such fractional part of a vote as shall result from dividing the smaller number (which is three) by the larger number (which is five).” The numbers refer to the fact that Calhoun County has a three-member supervisor board and Webster County has a five-member board. Each Webster County supervisor receives a 3/5 vote so that if all of the members of each county vote on opposite sides of a motion, the vote will be a tie, 3 to 3, and the motion will fail. According to Jacobs, since Webster County had one fewer member present, they came 3/5 of a vote short of the Calhoun County vote. The Webster County supervisors remained adamant in their disagreement at the July 1 meeting. The two boards couldn’t even agree to approve the minutes of the June 24 meeting. A Webster County supervisor suggested that the drainage attorneys for each county meet to discuss the matter (presumably using billable hours to resolve a drainage district matter.) I won’t go further into this issue except to say that Calhoun County is right and Webster County is wrong. I guess presenting this as an opinion piece is a simpler way to handle it after all.

Displayed will be local centurion Dorothy Stott’s porcelain doll collection that she painted and a few other items of her art. Also on exhibit will be the Christmas card collection designed by former Lake City resident George Taylor. The display will be prepared by Pati Jo Daisy, Mr. Taylor’s great-niece. In addition to the cards, some of his other art will be on display. I took great pleasure in interviewing both Dorothy Stotts herself and Jolene Mapel, niece of George Taylor and mother of Pati Jo Daisy, in order to gather more history about these artists. George Taylor was born in Lake City in 1906 to Bert and Mabel Taylor. Bert Taylor worked at the power house , which was located where the local bank now stands. He had a few cows that he milked, bottled the milk in fruit jars, and delivered them around town in his horse-drawn wagon. Jolene says her Uncle George hated the dairy and farm life. As a youngster he drew pictures in his textbooks in any empty space he could find. He was a smart kid, quiet/reserved, as Jolene recalls, but he did have a sense of humor also. George graduated from high school in Lake City in 1924 and then left for college. He attended what is now UNI, but back then it was known as the Teacher’s College. His first and only teaching job was in Indianola, Iowa. He was the first art teacher for the school, and after one year he knew teaching was not for him. He frequently recounted his most embarrassing moment in his year of teaching. The students were preparing an Easter mural and asked Mr. Taylor what color the eggs should be. “Well, what color ARE rabbit eggs?” was his embarrassing response. He then moved to Chicago. He worked over 40 years as a writer for the well-known advertising agency of Meyerhoff. I was fascinated by Jolene’s account of his life in advertising. He was a writer for Wrigley Gum, and he had an integral part in getting a set of twins for the Doublemint ads. Brach’s Candy was another of his accounts. Most interesting was the fact that George’s picture was on the envelope of Mrs. Grass Soup, a different picture and costume for each of twelve months. These ads also appeared in Life Magazine! Jolene says it was his silly grin that landed him that honor. George loved to draw and paint, and did so over many years. However, he never sold any of his works because he felt they belonged with him and family members. He studied every year at the Chicago Institute of Art. Starting in the 1960’s, according to Jolene, he would design a Christmas card every year. Jolene said that George sent out over 1000 cards each Christmas to friends all over the world. In 1976, doctors removed a brain tumor that was situated in the memory area. It was not known if George would remember how to do his art. The Christmas after his surgery, he took a photograph of one of his prior paintings to put on his cards. It is the only colored picture in the collection. By the next Christmas, he once again was able to design an original card. He had NOT lost any of his artistic skills! George’s mother, Mabel Taylor, lived to be 107 years old. He visited her from Chicago once or twice a year, and would use his calligraphy skills to help her address her Christmas cards. George died at the age of 97. Many family members are the keepers of his art. Dorothy Stotts is truly a gentle woman. She celebrated 100 years in April and now resides in Shady Oaks. She was born in 1914 and graduated from high school in Rockwell City, She was approached before graduation and took the job as a country school teacher at Lake Creek #5. She is remembered by County declared disaster area Calhoun County is declared a disaster area as a result of the June 30 hailstorm. A 45-day time limit to qualify for reimbursement for repairs hasstarted. For further information go to thegraphic-advocate.com DMACC’S spring grads Area students graduating from the Des Moines Area Community College include: Christopher Shannon, Liberal Arts, Rockwell City Jeffrey Ditzenberger, Business Administration, Rockwell City Daylon Hardy, Liberal Arts, Churdan some of her former students even today. She married Merle Stotts who worked in Rockwell City. Together they ran a grocery store in Sherwood, now a little spot in the road north of Lake City. She also taught Presbyterian Sunday school in Lytton and later was an employee of Ryan’s Super Value in Lake City. Dorothy’s artistic skills emerged later in life after her husband died. She became skilled at painting all kinds of things including oil paintings, china, vases, and, the exhibit special, porcelain dolls. She took classes with Eileen Blaskovich, belonged to two painting clubs in Carroll and Fort Dodge., and painted with Carroll artist Jan Abbey. She attended seminars to enrich her skills. Though once skilled she could do her art at home, Dorothy much enjoyed a group setting where she could socialize and have fun while painting. She owned her own kiln that she used to fire her porcelain work. Dorothy’s doll collection numbers over 50. She states that it took time to get a doll’s face to the point where “I thought it was perfect.” She would paint, revise, repaint, until she was satisfied with the results. Some dolls were given as gifts, and many she kept for her personal collection. The dolls often came with porcelain arms and legs that she would also paint. She hired Joyce Hiler to dress her dolls, each in a different attire. Her son Mike Stotts and his wife Linda have many of Dorothy’s pieces in their home. Linda is coordinating the display and will include a few other examples of Dorothy’s work in addition to the dolls. Don’t miss the chance to honor these two artists by attending the open house! Dorothy is planning to attend and looks forward to getting out to see and chat with community members. Jolene Mapel hopes to be there to represent her Uncle George.

Collis has served as a volunteer organizer for the program for over fourteen years. In years past, the list of volunteers accounted for more than 200 people. Today, the list has shrunk to less than 50. “Working from a list this small can be challenging, especially in the winter when some of our volunteers go south,” says Collis. The coordinators try to only call on each available volunteer driver once during their three-month shift, which results in a volunteer driving for a week, four times a year. Each year, the Meals-On-Wheels program delivers about 7,800 meals according to Dawn Dean of Lake City who also helps organize the program. She says several drivers are needed each week to handle the different routes. “Typically, we have three routes with approximately 10 or 11 stops, and we need a different driver for each route.” The number of stops varies each week depending on how many people are signed up for Meals-On-Wheels at the time and each volunteer is asked to commit to a week-long shift. With the delivered meals, this program which has been running in Lake City for 41 years, helps people stay in their homes longer than would normally be feasible. Volunteering to help deliver the meals is an easy and enjoyable task according to Jenny Sporleder of Lake City. Sporleder has helped with the program for the last ten years and says it only takes less than an hour to do. “We usually load the meals up at 11 in the morning and are typically finished by 11:30. We also help the volunteer drivers load up the meals in their vehicle if they need us to.” To become a volunteer driver for the program you need to have a valid drivers license and pass a simple health screening, which is provided free of charge at Stewart Memorial Community Hospital. “This is one of the most rewarding volunteer programs I work with. The people you deliver meals to are so appreciative of the nourishing meal. I always look forward to seeing their smiles,” notes Collis. The Mealson-Wheels program is just one of many volunteer opportunities at Stewart Memorial Community Hospital through the Auxiliary. New members are always welcome. cards, which Membership are available in the SMCH Gift Shoppe, list opportunities available for volunteers. Annual Auxiliary membership dues are only $2.

June went out with a bang with the hail storm. We were in the middle of bingo when it hit. Everyone remained safe although a few of the staff member’s cars were damaged. Kathy went outside and grabbed a few pieces of the hail for everyone to see. They were the biggest pieces some of us had ever seen. We hope that everyone had a wonderful and safe 4th of July! We kept busy with men’s coffee, card club and our ice cream social. We also had some fun little visitors this week. Pauline Blaas grandchildren and great grandchildren stopped in for a visit. This week we also played a new game for us. The game is called Headbanz. You wear a headband and every person has a card on their head where they cannot see but everyone else can. It is a person job to guess what they are. They could be anything from a person, food, animal or object. It was a learning curve but we figured it out and had a great time. We are so excited for the Calhoun County fair. We are planning on riding in the parade and enjoying the fun the fair brings. Big thanks to Jim VanScoy for offering to let us ride. So look for Sunny Knoll we will be having lots of candy for the little ones. We are also looking forward to having the Harmony Brigade Barbershop Chorus sing on Sunday July 13th around 12:30. The 15th of July at 1pm we will have Jimmy and Ed Simpson sing with us. We have a busy month planned and that is just how we like it! Jennifer RobertsActivity Director SUNNYVIEW Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle! Answers from: 06/25/14 This week’s sponsor: The 3 to 4-inch diameter ice chunks hurtling from the sky on June 30th were impressive. That is, they made an impression on the ground, crops, cars, and roofs. (Wait a minute – if we have more than one roof, do we have “roofs” or do we have “rooves?” Or maybe we have grooves in our roofs?) Anyway, many of us here at Sunnyview had never seen that size of hailstone or that size of depression/ hole in the lawn – some were like meteorites making craters. One way or another, the hail has affected us. It seems likely that business has picked up for the claims adjusters! As for the roofing question - have you seen any roofing folks handing out flyers? Those of us with hard-to-fix automobile damage might see this as an opportunity to find our way to the auto dealers for a trade. We will hope for the best for the crops. Now we know what it sounds like to be inside a building while it is pummeled with icy “baseballs.” We are thankful that we did not blow away. The Calhoun County Expo starts July 9 and the fairgrounds are partly flooded - we’ll see how it goes. With all of this rain, will more mosquitoes appear? If you walk outside, especially in the evening, keep an eye out for them. Certainly, many different types of insect repellants are available. Several products contain DEET, which seems to be quite effective. As for an alternative to DEET, here’s a tip that sounds interesting: pour Listerine mouthwash into a spray bottle and spray it on your clothes and skin. Supposedly, the mosquitoes do not like the mouthwash and they keep their distance. (Now we wonder what alternative uses may be found for toothpaste?) Also, we heard that you may find bug relief by rubbing your arms with fabric softener dryer sheets. Someone else suggested Avon Skin-So-Soft, Vick’s Vapor Rub or pure vanilla. What is your favorite method to avoid mosquito bites? If you are a RAGBRAI fan or participant, you may already be set for the July 20 launch date. It looks like Okoboji, Emmetsburg and Mason City are on the route this year. One item that may be valuable to bring along on RAGBRAI (besides water and sunscreen) is a hat with some type of bill or brim – maybe a sun visor. This brings to mind the following. What did one hat say to another? “You stay here; I’ll go on a head!” Summer is a good time to take a break and go fishing, and here are some fishing-related thoughts. “It was a fine way to spend the day – wading a favorite trout stream after placing several hooks into deep, dark pools. The only problem was we were playing golf.” Remember, our website is www. sunnyviewil.com and the coffee is always on.

A very nice meal was served. The next meeting will be held on July 14, 2014. LOHRVILLE My Thought for the Day is: If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind. The Trivia Question for the week is: The Iowa District was first placed under the laws of the United States in 1834 by being annexed to what territory? Happy Birthday to Barb Sholtens the 12th, Melissa Morris on the 13th, Gene Morris the 4th and Bette’s on the 11th. Bethany Walbaum will be opening her Bar in October and the restaurant next April. Good Luck Bethany. Carol Hood had as her visitor last week her son Jim and wife Cyndy and their family from South Dakota. On Wednesday Dorothy Siemenn had some surprise visitors Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Hardy and their children from Ohio. Last week I visited at Sunny Knoll and saw my sister-in-law Charlotte Haub, Gina Rassmuson and Maxine Kail It was Ice Cream day and everyone seemed to be having a good time. BRALS (Bike Ride Around Lohrville Slowly) everyone had a good time I am sure. Did you know there is a cabin for rent at the University 40 Park? Call 712-297-7131 if interested. It may be too late however. Susan Clapper visited her Mother Bette on Sat. Many attended the Church Service in Lake City on Sunday. The service was to be held on the Square but due to unpredictable weather it was held in Woodlawn Christian Church. The Lanesboro Puppets put on a good program of music. The ministers from several churches participated. Those visiting were from several towns around. I understand that the Storm last week did cause some damage to crops in the area. On Friday Dorothy Siemann and Bette attended the Fish Fry in Farnhamville sponsored by the American Legion and were fortunate to sit by Mike Sexton and his wife. Mike is running for the Iowa House. Back to School Bash will be held at the J.J. Hands Library where the students will receive their school supplies. There will be a Walking Taco Supper with a Free Will Offering accepted. On July 19th there will be a lot going on at the City Park with a Car, Tractor and Motorcycle Show; Alan Lohr will be providing the music. ICAP sanctioned Antique Tractor Pull will at 11:00 A.M. There will be a Mud Volleyball Game as another feature and the Fire Dept will be serving food in the concession stand during these events. The answer to the Trivia Question is Territory of Michigan. Hope you had a good time the 4th of July. Well until next week have a good one. Anyone having an item for Lohrville news may contact Bette Knapp at 712-465-3295. SHADY OAKS “Wild Rose Casino or bust!” was heard as six residents and three team members headed to Emmetsburg June 25th. The group enjoyed the beautiful sunny day taking in the bright blue skies and flooding from recent rain storms. The group stopped for burgers and fries at a 50’s retro style A&W restaurant. Nothing hits the spot like a frosty mug of Root Beer! The restaurant has a brass bell for customers to ring if everything was great, which we did as we left to head to the casino. Arriving at the casino, everyone was eager to get off the bus and get inside to hit the machines. The Penny and Quarter Slots were the choice of many, with all the bells, lights, and whistles as a few ‘hit it big’ during the afternoon! It was a wonderful day, good sights, good company, and some excitement at the casino!

H. Jones & Sons Hardware store. In 1929 Pearen & Bain closed out their business. After a rest of five years, Mr. Bain again, in May, 1925, entered business circles in Lake City, when he, with Gust Beeler, purchased of H. J. Rathjen the Rexall Drug Store. This partnership was dissolved about six years ago and Mr. Bain has continued with the business until the present time. Mr. Bain says he has been behind a counter for 55 years, counting his clerkship in the Hutchison & Danforth General store when he was a youngster. Notice! We are in need of operators.

When Homer Knight was ill and unable to work over the week-end, 25 of his neighbors gathered at his farm 4 miles west of Lake City and worked Saturday afternoon and Sunday to cut and shock 45 acres of oats. There were four binders in the field. Mrs. Knight and daughter Wilma, assisted by Mrs. Earl Lasher, Mrs. Clarence Binkert, Mrs. Floyd Davis and Mrs. Albert Trotter served dinner on Sunday.

In cooperation with the National Restaurant Industry Advisory Council, OPA [Office of Price Administration] has issued a restaurant ceiling price regulation which will become effective July 31, 1944, requiring every public eating and drinking establishment to post prominently the prices of 40 basic foods. The posters for displaying the prices will be provided by the War Price and Rationing Board.

They each received prizes from local businesses. Alumni News by Martha Sorenson – Several years ago, Ivah Drilling sent an antique walnut rope bed to be displayed at Central School. Until now, CSP, Inc. and Harold McChesney, the custodian, had no directions for putting together this bed. Dean Zenor found the directions in a Lake City library history magazine, so that now work can begin assembling the Stennett Bed. Alumni News by Martha Sorenson – Becky Croson has given a copy of her brother’s book, “All Expenses Paid,” to the Military Room at Central School. The brother, Col. Charles H. Obye, finished high school here in 1911, married his high school sweetheart, Beth Lemon, class of 1912, and made a career of military - an educational and a philanthropic life. He was president of the Lions International and served as the organization’s speaker for many years. The Lake City High School Class of 1944 held their 50th class reunion recently. Attending were: Pauline (Stephens) Musson, Helen (Glasgow) Nelson, Eleanor (Moulds) Gidel, Lucille (Allen) Titus, Iva Belle (Guess) Nelson, Mable (Geisinger) Earhart, and Georgia (Clark) Ihrke, Myron Glasnap, Arnie Moulds, Harold DeLong, Marijane (McCaulley) Wagner, Doris (Sommerfeld) Hanks, Richard Crandall, Don O’Connor and Warren Leathers.

Pearen established a general store, and the following announcement appeared in the March 14, 1889 issue of The Graphic: “The newly organized firm of Pearen & Bain will open their store at Grant’s old stand, south side of the square, in Lake City on March 13, 1889, with new lines of goods.” After purchasing the A.
