Cal board approved a contract with Seven G, a Johnston, Iowa, engineering firm, to provide oversight for the demolition of the former school building in Lohrville. Seven G had worked with the school board in preparing for and assessing bids for demolition. At the recommendation of Ryan Peterson, Seven G president, the board approved the lowest of six bids for the demolition of the Lohrville School building at a meeting in February. The contract with King Construction of Wall Lake was for $363,000. At the March 17 meeting, the board approved a contract for Seven G to oversee the demolition, with the fee depending on work performed but not to exceed $19,750. That matter was likely the last remaining major responsibility of the S. Cal Board before that district merges with RCL to form the South Central Calhoun District as of July 1. Other matters considered at the March 17 joint board meeting included: Mike Schulz of Feld Security in Carroll made a presentation regarding a security system for school entrances at the three school buildings. The system would enable the entrance area to be viewed through cameras and unlocked from the central office. A representative from another company will make a presentation at the April meeting. The boards approved fees for the next school year that will leave activity and hot lunch fees unchanged, lower book rental from $40 to $20 and leave the driver’s ed fee unchanged for district residents and increase the fee $15 for out of district students. County officials recommend more courthouse parking By Ken Ross Graphic Advocate Editor At the March 18 County Board of Supervisors meeting, department heads met with the supervisors, as they do on a monthly basis. One subject discussed by the department heads was potential change of designated parking spaces in the parking lot to the west of the courthouse. This parking area inside the square is in addition to parking spaces all around the square. It was noted that many members of the public do not realize there are parking spots available to them in this parking lot. One reason might be that there are reserved signs on all the spaces, although some are $100 www.thegraphic-advocate.com reserved for the public, meaning anybody but county employees can park in these spaces. People just read the big all-caps word “RESERVED” and don’t read further. The department heads voted to recommend to the supervisors that the signs be modified and the number of public spaces increased by eliminating eight generic “staff” parking spaces. The parking spaces designated for elected officials, the district court judge, the county engineer, the juvenile officer, four sheriff’s department spaces and two handicapped spots would remain as is under the recommendation. The matter was not acted upon at the March 18 meeting, being tabled until all three supervisors are present (Gary Nicholson was absent). Rachel Rosenboom, Sherman Township Clerk, met with the Board to request the Board of Supervisors declare Sherman Township Cemetery a Pioneer Cemetery. Sherman Township will continue to maintain the cemetery. Review of the cemetery shows less than 20 headstones with the most recent burial in 1933. The township trustees have closed the cemetery to any future burials. The County Attorney has been contacted to draw up an ordinance. Library features intarsia art The Lake City Friends of the Library are hosting an art exhibit at the library featuring beautiful wooden pieces created through the intarsia method. John Rohlk, father of Lake City resident, Linda Norgrant is an enthusiastic craftsman of intarsia. He is a Storm Lake native, now living in Spencer with his wife of 63 years, Connie. Linda Norgrant is an artist in her own right; a retired art teacher is now creating pieces on commission. Rohlk has been creating intarsia pieces for more than 40 years. Intarsia is a woodworking technique that uses varied shapes, sizes and species of wood fitted together to create a mosaiclike picture with an illusion of depth. Intarsia is created through selection of different types of wood, using their natural grain pattern and color (but can involve the use of stains and dyes) to create variations in the pattern. After selecting the specific woods to be used within the pattern, each piece is then individually cut, shaped and finished. Sometimes areas of the pattern are raised to create more depth. Once the individual pieces are complete, they are fitted together like a jig-saw puzzle and Linda Norgrant with one of her fathers creations. glued to a wood backing which is sometimes cut to the outline shape of the image. Rohlk’s family and friends have been the beneficiaries of his talent receiving lamps, tables, bowls, wall pieces, and numerous other works. He has been awarded “Best in Class” numerous times at the Clay County Fair. Lake City will now benefit from his talents with an exhibit displayed at the Lake City Library. An open house will be held at the Library on Sunday, March 30 from 1 to 3 p.m. Don’t miss it, both Linda and her father will show you his work. Trott trial delayed idefinitely In a filing by Judge Thomas Bice on March 20, the murder trial of Corey Trott scheduled for April 21 has been removed from the trial calendar pending results of competency evaluation. In February, Bice ruled that Corey Trott, 32, charged with the September 2013 murder of Rockwell City Police Officer Jamie Buenting, will need to undergo psychiatric evaluation at the Iowa Medical and Classification Center at Oakdale to determine whether Trott “... is suffering from a mental disorder which may prevent the defendant from appreciating the charge, understanding the proceedings or assisting effectively in his defense.” In the event that Trott is ruled incompetent, regular evaluations will be made while treatment is given.

I take Buddy for a minimum of two walks a day—morning and night, and he loves the cold. On our coldest walk—it was 14 below zero with a 20 mph wind, that made it like 40 Before below—Buddy just put his nose in the wind, and tested for scents. Then he took off on a romp, doing circles and leaping high, taking bites out of the crusty snow as he went. Me? I was trying desperately to keep every patch of skin covered— like my forehead and wrists—lest I have to tuck tail and scurry home. Even though I had my nose and mouth covered, breathing was painful. I’ll have to admit, ole Buddy Boy was looking pretty shaggy, like a sheep dog, like a Buddy Bear. I was wondering how much he could see, with all that hair covering his pretty brown eyes. Thank God he doesn’t shed! But the worst part, people were saying my dog looked fat. I was wondering myself. With all that hair, it was hard to tell what was body, and what was fur. I began cutting his food back. I set a date of March first. Cold weather or not, I was going to have him groomed. Heather Brauman is my groomer, and we have a barter system worked out—I frame pictures for her, she grooms my dog. We both treat each other’s possessions like they were our own. The big day came, and Buddy ran off to his fate like it was Christmas (he loves Heather because she makes such a fuss over him). Fortunately, the sun was shining and it was thawing. When I picked Buddy up, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I didn’t recognize him! He looked like someone else’s cute puppy. And, no, he wasn’t fat! Oh, if this would only work for humans—get a haircut and shed 40 pounds! But what’s even more amazing, with all that fur removed, his personality seemed to change. He became more cuddly, and puppyish. With all that hair gone, I suppose, he doesn’t get as hot, and is more willing to cuddle. I wonder, has his personality changed, or is it my perception of him that’s changed? Hmm. That’s an interesting question for a dog psychologist. He looks like a puppy therefore I treat him like one. Instead of, “Get out of here, you big ole hairy thing,” it’s “Come here, pretty boy, and give me a hug.” If dogs could only talk. I was a little concerned that Buddy The Graphic-Advocate Produced weekly and distributed Wednesdays by The Graphic-Advocate A Division of Mid-America Publishing Corporation — Hampton, Iowa 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.

There’s been more cold and snow since the day of the mighty haircut, but Buddy hasn’t seemed to notice. He still runs and romps, buries his nose in the snow, and doesn’t shiver or shake. I have not had to resort to a dog sweater. We still go on our two-a-days, and he still waits at the door in eager anticipation, doing his customary circles and leaps. I don’t know who enjoys these walks more, Buddy or me. Don’t ask what breed he is. I don’t know. I rescued Buddy from a dog shelter in Wayland. Rescued dogs make the best pets, you know.

Back in 2006, an intruder at a oneroom schoolhouse in Pennsylvania killed five children before killing himself. Most school shootings before and since then were committed by students rather than by intruders. There are currently commendable efforts across the country to deal with adolescent mental health and dysfunctional social interaction issues, issues that have a much broader impact than just addressing the rare incidents of students murdering other students. The murder of children at the school in Pennsylvania generated policies that specifically addressed the danger of murder by intruders. In Cherokee, where I was working at the time, the school administration began a policy of having only one unlocked entrance door at each building during the school day, with those inside able to exit through any door but not able to reenter except by the one entrance. Visitors were required to sign in at the main office, get a name tag to wear during the visit and sign out before leaving, requirements that were waived during events open to the public. In an insensitive manner, I wrote a column ridiculing the idea that a psychopath would be deterred from a murderous rampage by the inconvenience of having to sign in at the office and get a name tag. I made another point, in a less sarcastic manner, that by locking some doors, a child (or staff member) might be denied the quickest access to the building during violent weather, when pursued by a predator or when pursued by a vicious (perhaps rabid) animal. It also might delay emergency service personnel from getting to the precise location where they need to be as quickly as possible. The chance of any of these situation, considered either individually or collectively, causing a tragedy is remote but probably a bit less remote than having a oneunlocked-door policy preventing a tragedy. I don’t know for sure. The impact on safety either way is probably negligible. I did not have a strong objection about such a policy other than distaste for knee-jerk policy decisions that cause inconvenience and expense for cosmetic purposes. That is not my assessment of the current consideration by the South Central Calhoun School Board of new doors, cameras and intercom systems at three school buildings. New doors are needed for the primary entrances at the buildings. I’m not convinced that cameras and speakers at the entrances and being able to open the doors remotely from offices are needed but I’m willing to concede that something close to a reasonable argument could be made for such upgrades. This new round of upgrading school security across the country is partly motivated by the December 2012 killing of 20 children and six staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., the first mass murder by an intruder at a school since the one in 2006 in Pennsylvania. The availability of new security technology was being used by some school districts even before the mass murder at Sandy Hook Elementary, including, ironically, at Sandy Hook Elementary. A buzz-in security system with video monitor had been installed at Sandy Hook prior to the massacre. The gunman shot his way through a glass panel next to the locked front entrance doors shortly after 9:30 a.m. on Dec. 14, 2012. If he had arrived a few minutes earlier, he wouldn’t have even had to shoot his way in because the entrances remained unlocked until 9:30 a.m. This would be the same situation for the security system being considered in the SCC District, where there would be open access at the start and end of the school day. At the high school, there might need to be open access between the main building and the vocational building between periods. The doors are also propped open during hot weather because of the lack of air conditioning. There was brief mention at a recent SCC board meeting of a possible study on the cost of air-conditioning for the buildings. There are good reasons for air-conditioning school buildings but the possibility of deterring a mass murderer with poor planning skills is not one of them. If we’re going to really try to protect children while they are at school, shouldn’t we surround playgrounds with sturdy chainlink fences? That might not prevent a gunman from shooting into the playground but perhaps if the gunman was prevented from actually coming onto the playground and there were pillbox structures to take shelter in, the death toll could be kept to a minimum. Excuse my insensitive jerkishness, but I don’t know how to otherwise convey that there are safety concerns regarding children that are many times more realistic and pressing than the fear of an armed killer attacking them in the schools.

He also acknowledges his own fear of knowing the test results because of his family history. “My mom had colon cancer and she had to have part of her colon removed because of it. In some respects, I was afraid of having to admit that I wasn’t bullet proof.” Last fall, Van Ness says the recommendation from his doctor, Dr. Derek Duncan, to get a colonoscopy started to sink in. “I scheduled the procedure at Stewart Memorial Community Hospital in Lake City. Unfortunately, I had to cancel because I got sick,” notes Van Ness. He did not call and L.C. Betterment Coffees Coffees are held the last Friday of each month. If you are interested in hosting a Betterment Coffee, please contact [email protected] or call/text 712-464-7611. reschedule the colonoscopy. He felt fine and did not have any symptoms that his colon was unhealthy. “One afternoon, I received a phone call from my medical providers nurse. She reminded me that I needed to have a screening colonoscopy done.” This time, he committed to a date and the procedure was performed by Dr. Derek Duncan, a board certified family practice physician with McCrary Rost clinic who is also trained to perform colonoscopies. “I appreciate Dr. Duncan’s staff reaching out to me and encouraging me to be proactive with my health.” The procedure went smoothly. “The prep work for the procedure isn’t as bad as some people say and the colonoscopy itself is painless because you are put under anesthesia,” recalls Van Ness. After the colonoscopy, Dr. Duncan visited with Van Ness and his wife in one of the private SMCH patient recovery rooms where Van Ness was resting. “He thanked my wife for encouraging me to have the colonoscopy done. The news was shocking.” Dr. Duncan found a dozen different polyps in Van Ness’ colon. “Some of the polyps had grown quite large, despite the patient having no symptoms, and were pre-cancerous,” notes Dr. Duncan who has performed colonoscopies at SMCH for the last seven years. Dr. Duncan says Van Ness came in for his colonoscopy before it was too late. “Colon cancer is one of the most preventable cancers if it is caught early. Having a screening colonoscopy at the age of 50 is in the best interest of patients’ health,” notes Dr. Duncan. If you have a family history of colon cancer, talk to your medical provider about the appropriate age for a screening colonoscopy. For Van Ness, the results of his colonoscopy served as a wake up call. “I now tell all of my friends to get the screening done. It is worth the time and effort. I am very fortunate to be the patient of a doctor who collaborates with me to be proactive with my health and it saved my life.” Prices Good Sunday, March 23 - Saturday, March 29, 2014 MEAT USDA Choice Chuck Roast & Chuck Steak Boineless America’s Cut Chops 3 3 LAKE CITY, IOWA 85% Lean 3 269 99 Ground lb 29 lb 69 Beef lb Gold “n” Plump Drums or Thighs 24oz 3 2 999 2$ 5 2$ 5 Everyday Bacon 16oz Louis Kemp Crab Delights 12oz Arctic Shores Pink Cooked Shrimp 91-120ct Oscar Mayer Cold Cuts 16oz FOR Oscar Mayer Weiners 16oz FOR All Meat Store Hours: Mon - Sat 7am - 9pm; Sun 10am - 6pm PRODUCE Champal Fresh Blueberries 2 99 6 oz New Crop Fresh Anjou Pears FROZEN Foods Mexico Grown Roma Tomatoes lb Idaho Russett Green Giant Potatoes 5lb Essential Everyday Corn Muffin Mix 7.5oz Coles Texas Toast 14-16oz FOR Hot Pockets 9oz FOR FOR All Flavors 299 2$ 5 2$ 5 2$ 4 Jacks Pizza 18oz All Selections All Selections All Flavors Squares Shoppers Ice Cream 56oz DAIRY Fresh 5 69 2 99 49 2 99 Essential Everyday String Cheese 24oz All Varieties AE Cottage Cheese 24oz Sticks or Tubs Blue Bonnett 1lb 100% Pure AE Orange Juice 64oz Essential Everyday Cream Soups Mushroom, Chicken, Low Salt Chicken, Low Salt Mushroom 4 FOR $ 3 All Choices Old Dutch Tostados 13oz 2$ FOR 5 FOR GROCERY Essential Everyday Squeeze Ketchup 24oz Essential Everyday Fish, Shrimp Cocktail Sauce 12oz Nabisco Reg or Wheat Ritz Crackers 13.7oz 60oz 10 Packs All or Any 99 29 1 69 1 39 1 2$ 4 lb Jumbo 99 Dole Head Lettuce ea Med 99 Fresh Bag Yellow Onions 2lb Thick or Reg Essential Bologna, Cotto, Turkey, Bolo, Turkey Cotto We accept WIC and EBT Pacific Sun Drink Boxes Hawaiian Punch 128oz 59 139 139 299 299 269 99 2 $ 5 2 $ 5 4 $ 5 2$ 5 Angel Hair, Reg Wheat Whole Grain Barilla Spaghetti 16oz All Varieties Velveeta Skillet Meal 11-15oz FOR All Selections Skippy Peanut Butter 15-16oz FOR Essential Everyday Pears, Peaches Fruit Cocktail 15oz FOR All Selections Capt Crunch Cereal 13oz NEW 20pk Cans Pepsi, Mtn Dew, Dr Pepper 6 99 FOR 6pk Plastic 16.9oz 7up, A&W, Sunkist Products 3$ FOR 10 3 4 The Graphic-Advocate LEGALS SCC and R-C, So.

[The following full page ad appeared in the March 27, 1924, issue of The Lake City Graphic] Do Unto Others — Paying your bills promptly is one of the best ways to follow the Golden Rule. First–in fairness to the merchant or professional man who has invested cash and time in the merchandise or service you have received, you should reciprocate the favor of credit by taking care of your obligations in reasonable time. Your merchant or professional man does not require security. He demands no interest– yet he is actually loaning you cash. Second–in fairness to your own good name and reputation, your bills should be paid on time. You are granted credit according to your past record. Your character is the basis for confidence in your ability to pay. Do your part. Pay your bills promptly. If you can’t pay all at once, pay half or whatever you can and see to it that your creditor knows you are playing the game square. That’s one way we can all add to the good name of Lake City. — First National Bank; W. M. Ladd, Men’s Furnishing; Berrier Bros., Meat Market; J. F.

You might ask, “How is this Irish?” We don’t know, other than perhaps Irish people like pancakes. Anyway, John fired up the griddle and the batter was mixed. Many pancakes were served and many pancakes were laid to rest (that is, they were consumed). Along with the pancakes, which were regular toasty “pancake color,” the kitchen staff served “green eggs and ham” (remember the book by Dr. Seuss?) and cinnamon rolls with green frosting. However, the green eggs, which were scrambled, light and fluffy, may not have come from Irish chickens! What a creative group we have. Although we didn’t see any leprechauns, pots of gold, or rainbows, many of the residents and several members of the kitchen staff dressed in green for the dinner. They may have claimed to be Irish at least for a day. Green scarves, shirts, socks, shoes, lighted necklaces and other accessories added to the festivities. Thank you to the kitchen staff. We wouldn’t be surprised if this turns out to be the “first annual” Irish pancake dinner. Maybe next year we could have Irish/Celtic music during the meal and “Riverdance” dance lessons to follow? So, what else is going on at Sunnyview? Let’s consider the bird room. This is the lounge just off the dining room, which has the large enclosure where you may observe the antics of the colorful birds from “Living Design.” This lounge is also the site of the incredibly intricate doll house donated by the family of Margaret (Peggy) Keith. Between the birds and the doll house you may often find a dedicated group of card players (we have not heard of any ferocious card “sharks”). Many a boisterous card game takes place in the bird room. And don’t forget those jig-saw puzzles! Here is a reminder – you can check us out on the web: www.sunnyviewil.com. Belated happy birthday to the March birthday people: Shirlee, Maureen, Maxine, Sheldon and Jana. Happy Spring! Besides multiple sightings of robins, we have heard and seen returning flocks of geese. Do you think we’ll have another 7-inch snowfall in May (like last year) with a day off for the schools? It can be hard to know when to put away all the winter shovels and replace heavy coats and boots with summer gear. The icy conditions on the morning of March 19th gave us pause, and reminded us that winter has not given up. (If you try to follow the Boy Scout motto of “Be Prepared,” maybe you were ready that morning with some stretchy cleats or “tracks” that fit over your shoes.)

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.

Stewart Memorial Community Hospital is joining a network of over 350 healthcare locations, many of them Unity Point affiliates, across the midwest in implementing a new electronic health record system called EPIC. SMCH will launch the new system on March 29th. The new computer charting system will provide an up-to-date electronic medical record of patient medical information that can be accessed wherever a patient receives medical care within the network of hospitals and clinics on the EPIC system. Electronic medical records will make the care patients receive at SMCH even better. First, current medical information will be at the medical provider’s fingertips – no matter if care originates at SMCH or at another Unity Point affiliated hospital, McCrary Rost clinics, or even one of SMCH’s Unity Point Health affiliates. Second, health information can be more efficiently Jim Henkenius, CFO, and Sherry Lampe, Clinical Nurse IT shared between areas Director, provide training and support for staff in preparation of of the hospital that are the March 29th go-live date for the new electronic health records involved in the patient’s care.

Lastly, privacy and security of medical records will be improved. Sherry Lampe, Clinical Nurse IT Director at SMCH, describes the equipment upgrades and staff training required prior to the go live date, “Training has been very intense for the last two months and the staff has worked very hard at learning the EPIC system. We are all very anxious to get started. We have added computers to each patient room along with several new mobile computers.” In the near future, SMCH will offer an additional benefit which is a free, privacy-protected website for patients and care givers. The web-based portal called MyUnityPoint will help patients keep track of their personal medical history and test results. Registered users will be able to review lab and radiology results, their personal medical history such as their vitals, immunizations and providers seen. Additionally, patients will be able to request and keep track of clinic appointments, request prescription renewals, view current and past prescriptions, and send messages to and from their health care team. Initial visits to the hospital and clinics will require registration staff to input information into the new system for the first time. Patients are asked to bring their insurance cards and one form of identification, such as a driver’s license. They may also be asked to provide their social security number. “The process of putting in a patient’s information does take time. We want to thank our patients in advance for their patience as we transition to the new system,” says Jim Henkenius, CFO. Greater access to your records for you and your doctor, enhanced safety, and ultimately improved services at SMCH are benefits of the new technology. “Our goals are to continue to improve the quality of health care we offer,” says Henkenius. “Coordinating care for our patients, regardless of geographic location, equates to improving the quality of patient care.” Hearing Services of IA.

SCCHS presents Oklahoma South Central Calhoun High School is presenting the musical Oklahoma at the high school auditorium in Lake City, Friday and Saturday, March 28 and 29 at 7:30 p.m. Oklahoma! is the first musical written by the team of composer Richard Rodgers and librettist Oscar Hammerstein II. The musical is based on Lynn Riggs’ 1931 play, Green Grow the Lilacs. Set in Oklahoma Territory outside the town of Claremore in 1906, it tells the story of cowboy Curly McLain (Colin Brown) and his romance with farm girl Laurey Williams (Katie Welander). A secondary romance concerns cowboy Will Parker (Tanner Schrad) and his flirtatious fiancée, Ado Annie (Ally Winters). On a radiant summer morning in Indian Territory, Aunt Eller (Morgan Snyder) sits on her porch churning butter and looking out over her farmstead. Curly, a local ranch hand, comes to call. Curly and Eller’s niece, Laurey, have a lot in common—both are equally smitten with the other, and both are too proud and stubborn to admit it. Other characters include Jud Fry (Ryan Daisy), Ado Annie’s father Andrew Carnes (Trevor Bounds), the Persian peddler man Ali Hakim (Ryan Nicholson), an annoying flirt who couldn’t get her hands on Curly Gertie Cummings (Kjersti Olson). Tickets for this event are purchased at the door.
