County agrees to operate
ambulances in Lake City
By Ken Ross
Graphic-Advocate Editor
Members of the Lake City Council voted unanimously
on July 7 to approve an agreement phasing out the city
government’s role in financing the operation of an
ambulance service at the Stewart Memorial Community
Hospital (SMCH) in Lake City.
The following day, the members of the Calhoun County
Board of Supervisors unanimously agreed to expand
Calhoun County EMS to the operation of ambulances
out of SMCH, in addition to the ambulances currently
operated out of Rockwell City and one in Manson.
(Separate ambulance services continue to operate in
Lohrville and in Farnhamville).
SMCH CEO and President Heather Cain explained
to the city council that the hospital has been in
communication with the county ambulance service for
some time now regarding the proposed change. The
move is being contemplated because of a problem with
turnover among the ambulance crews. Although the
service was able to offer a competitive salary, the benefit
package has not been competitive.
Kerrie Hull of Calhoun County Ambulance, explained
to the supervisors, “While they’re there they can be
utilized in the hospital as needed… They will be helping
in the hospital doing IVs and other activities to improve
their skills. It will be a full-time paramedic service,
similar to Rockwell City - same schedule. I plan on
rotating my crew in Rockwell City to do some time in
Lake City, so they can get familiar and improve their
skills.”
“I believe it would be good for the welfare of Calhoun
County residents to move this forward,” Dean Hoag,
supervisor said.
“It’s going to be a great partnership with the hospital,”
Hull said.
Hull said there will need to be another four full-time
county employees with the expansion. “I think I’ll have
enough people apply,” she said.
Hull and SMCH Chief Financial Officer Jim
Henkenius explained to the supervisors the estimated
expenses and revenues for the county that would result
from the arrangement.
Scott Jacobs, supervisor chairman said, “At this point,
our supplemental could probably handle it… just so the
hospital and everyone knows in ’17 when Branstad’s
commercial property tax credits roll back and that’s
when productivity is possibly going down too… Right
now we can definitely afford to do this but I can’t project
out three or four years.”

County joins mental health region
By Ken Ross
Graphic-Advocate Editor
After a three-year process of
working out details of a multicounty mental health organization,
the mental health services of
Calhoun County, along with those of
five other counties, have become the
responsibility of the Rolling Hills
Mental Health Region.
The regionalization of services was
mandated by the Iowa Department
of Human Services which approved
an agreement for a region consisting
of Buena Vista, Calhoun, Carroll,
Crawford, Ida and Sac counties.
Previously, each county’s mental
health services were coordinated by a
CPC (Central Point of Coordination)
Administrator. Leisa Mayer had that
position in Calhoun County.
Now those responsibilities will be
taken over by Dawn Metzer, CEO
for the Rolling Hills region, and two
Coordinators of Disability Services,
who are Mayer and Louise Galbraith
former CPC of Crawford County.
Mayer, Metzer and Galbraith were
at the July 8 meeting of the Calhoun
County Board of Supervisors to
present information and to answer
questions.
Mayer will continue to get a
paycheck from Calhoun County but
her salary and other employment
costs will be billed back to the
Rolling Hills Region. Buena Vista
County is serving as fiscal agent for
the region.
The budget for the region for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 2015
totals $2,623,033. Each county is
assessed for its portion of the budget
based on population. Calhoun
County’s portion comes to $469,396.
Metzer said that Calhoun County
will not need to increase its levy
for mental health services for the
present.
“This first year will be a trial
period to see how things are working
and what we need to add,” Metzer
said.
“Calhoun County should see some
improvement of services within our
county,” Mayer predicted.
There was some discussion of
the fact that the transition process
had not gone smoothly at first for
the Rolling Hills counties and the
process is still not going smoothly
for other regions in the state.
Dean Hoag, supervisor said he is
satisfied with the direction that the
regional service is going. Referring
to Scott Jacobs, supervisor chairman
and Calhoun County representative
on the Rolling Hills Mental Health
Region, Hoag said, “Scott has kept
us informed and the results have
apparently been really good.”
Supervisor
Gary
Nicholson
agreed, “Three years ago I couldn’t
imagine it would end up like this.
“It was hard wasn’t it?” Mayer
said.
“Anyway, it turned out good,”
Nicholson responded.

A drill involving 23 firefighters
from seven departments on July 7
established what Calhoun County
fire departments would be capable
of in the event of a major fire.
Steve
O’Connor,
Calhoun
County Emergency Management
coordinator, said that during a drill
involving drafting from a pond
south of Rockwell City, transporting
the water 2.5 miles to City Park in
Rockwell City, dumping the water
into portable tanks and pumping
from the tanks, the departments were
able to keep up a flow of between
750 and a 1,000 gallons a minute
into the City Park pond for an hour.
“We could have kept going until we
ran out of fuel,” O’Connor said.
Participating departments included
Rockwell City, Lake City, Lohrville,
Manson, Farnhamville, Knierim and
Knoke. Iowa Central Community
College Fire Science instructor
Scott Kuester provided instruction,
assisted by Scott Thompson of
Humboldt.
O’Connor gave as an example of a
potential situation for which the drill
would prepare departments is calling
in the Fort Dodge ladder truck to a
fire at an elevator in Jolley.
Could the fire departments draw
sufficient water from the pond south
of Rockwell City or from a borrow
pit near the Twin Lakes to supply
the ladder truck a continuous flow of
water?
“The answer is yes. I believe we
could do that. But I wouldn’t have
said that yesterday,” O’Connor said
on the day following the drill.
Drawing from a water tank would
quickly drain it and drawing water
from a river would create problems
because of mudl, and debris but
the pond south of Rockwell City or
some borrow pits would provide an
ample supply of clean water.
“This really went well,” O’Connor
said.

Memorial
fun run
approved
The Rockwell City Council
approved at the July 7
meeting, a request to establish
a Fun Run on the morning of
Saturday, Aug. 16, in memory
of Nick Hildreth who recently
died as the result of a tragic
accident. The request was
made to the council by Kylie
and Kolten, his wife and
oldest son.
The intent is to establish this
as an annual event, probably
in conjunction with some
other community celebration.
This year, it will be separate
from any other event.

Crisis at the
border
Empty Nest By Curt Swarm
Atkins Diet
Disgusted with myself back in
March, I went on the Atkins diet. I
had been on the Atkins diet years
back, when Atkins was all the rage,
and had lost a bunch of weight, but
eventually grew tired of it. I had read
Dr. Atkins’ book and was impressed.
He maintained he could cure diabetes
through diet. Then I stopped running
because of a foot injury, and really
put on the pounds.
For those of you who don’t know,
the Atkins diet is the one where you
can eat all the protein and fat you
want (meat, eggs, cheese), but no
carbohydrates, especially sugar. Fat
has had a bad rap. Sugar is the culprit.
When you combine protein and fat
with carbohydrates, your pancreas
kicks in, producing insulin, and you
build body fat. Eat protein and fat
alone, and you burn the calories. It
also kills your appetite, instantly—a
big plus when you’re dieting.
I don’t know of an easier diet.
Meat and eggs are my favorite food.
(Buddy likes it, too.)
Don’t click your tongue and lecture
me about cholesterol. I’ve had my
cholesterol checked before and after
going on the Atkins diet, and it’s a
very respectable 170. Once again, it’s
only when you add carbs that your
cholesterol goes through the roof, as
well as your appetite.
I also quit drinking diet pop. All
of the diets recommend no soda pop,
diet or regular. I was drinking four of
those 24 oz. bottles of diet pop a day.
The redemption people loved me. I’ll
have to admit, the first day without
soda pop was sort of tough, but it was
only for the first day. I’m now a water
man.
For movie snacks, I smuggle in
pork rinds. It’s amazing how much
less expensive the movies are when
you’re not buying popcorn and soda.
How much weight have I lost?
Thirty pounds—about 10 pounds
a month. You don’t want to loose
weight too fast, or you’ll get sick
and put it right back on. I know from
experience. My waist size has shrunk
from 40 inches to 36. My goal is 34.
In March, I weighed 230 pounds.
after
before
I’m now down to 195. I really hate to
admit this, but according to the BMI
(Body Mass Index) Chart, I was obese.
I couldn’t believe it—I’ve been such
a critic of obesity in America. There
are three categories of obese—Obese
I, II, & III, with III being the worst. I
was in the Obese I category. I thought
I was just overweight. Shows to go
you how we can trick our little minds.
I’m now in the “Overweight”
category, and heading for the “Healthy
Weight” designation of 175—my
high school football weight. I have
no doubt that I will achieve it. It’s
maintaining that will be the challenge.
I may do the Modified Atkins Diet
when I’m at “healthy” weight, which
is Atkins through the day, then a salad
for supper, followed by a normal
meal, not to last more than an hour,
thus preventing the insulin rush.
Do I have cake and ice cream at
my grandkids’ birthdays? Absolutely!
Then right back on Atkins the
following day. The Atkins food I love
most, and this is sinful, is cheddar
cheese wrapped in bacon. OMG, is
this delicious, and the pounds roll off!
Why suffer?
I do half-an-hour of aerobic
exercise three-to-four times a
week, on the treadmill or elliptical
machine, and weigh myself once a
week—at the end of the week, before
the weekend binge eating starts. I
record my weight, which is a great
motivational tool when looking back
and, most importantly, it doesn’t lie.
Following the aerobic exercise, I do
a few minutes of anaerobics (strength
training)—pullups, pushups and
situps. When I started, I could barely
do four pushups and ten situps. I
couldn’t do a single pullup. I can now
do 30 pushups, 50 situps, and four
pullups. The pullups are for if I ever
get caught hanging from a cliff, I can
pull myself up.
I’m feeling better physically,
mentally, and love the comments.
Getting back into my “skinny” jeans
was a real treat. With all the soccer
hoopla lately, someone asked if I
played soccer. “No,” I said. “Why?”
“Well, you look like you do.” I could
have kissed them.

News programs have shown
ugly videos of protesters in
Murrieta, Calif., shouting at
busloads of immigrants, including
unaccompanied children as well
as adults (mostly young mothers)
with children. The hateful
confrontation was one more
ordeal in the hellish lives of the
refugees from the lawless Central
American countries of Guatemala,
El Salvador and Honduras.
Note: I’m using the term
“refugees” in the most general
sense without any connotation as a
legal status.
Despite the harshness of the
tactics used in Murrieta, a town of
107,000 people in the outer band of
the Los Angeles metropolitan area,
the citizens would be justified in
feeling relieved. The tactic seemed
to have worked and the refugees
have been taken elsewhere.
There are legitimate concerns
that a refugee camp could become
a long-term fixture of a community,
creating a drain on public services
without adequate reimbursement.
While such concerns are valid,
speculation about such a possibility
may seem inadequate, even to
those who have those fears, when
justifying the outrage expressed
toward frightened and vulnerable
women and children.
And even if there are citizens
of Murrieta willing to present a
thoughtful argument regarding
long-term concerns, that would
not make good sound bites for
the nightly news. So what the
news presented as the biggest
fear motivating the protestors was
concern that the refugees might
bring disease.
The threat to the community of
disease seems rather remote, thus
adding a suggestion of ignorance
to the image of cruel bigotry.
False promises of asylum draw
the refugees to America. Little
that can be said or broadcast in
this country will contradict the
misinformation being spread in
Central America. The best way to
let the Central Americans know
about the dangers and hardships
of the journey is to send the adults
and the children who accompany
them back to their native countries.
President Obama is seeking
authority to do that more quickly
than is now possible. Many
of these young families face
bleak futures back in their home
countries, but America cannot take
on responsibility for the homeless
populations of the Western
Hemisphere.
As for the unaccompanied
juveniles, compassion should
override any other consideration.
Whatever we do with the children,
they should be treated with as
much compassion as possible.

Rambles
By Ken Ross,
Graphic-Advocate Editor
The situation involving the
refugees from Central America
is separate from our debate over
immigration policy, but the
angry, bigoted and ignorant face
presented as representative of the
Murrieta protestors has become the
representative image of those who
oppose the attempts to “reform”
immigration policy.
The economic impact on
communities that have seen an
influx of immigration over the last
several decades has been more than
speculation. Progressives often
lament the fact that the majority
of wage earners in this country
are experiencing a stagnant or
deteriorating standard of living,
but the progressives fail to
acknowledge the mechanics of how
that is happening - rising worker
productivity through technological
advances, but declining worker
leverage to obtain compensation
for labor.
The two primary forces working
against American workers are first
- a tax system that actually rewards
moving operations offshore, and
second - an immigration policy
that creates a surplus of labor.
One progressive who originally
attacked last year’s immigration
bill from a pro-labor viewpoint
was Senator Bernie Sanders, a
liberal independent from Vermont.
“At a time when nearly 14
percent of the American people do
not have a full-time job, at a time
when the middle class continues
to disappear, and at a time when
tens of millions of Americans are
working longer hours for lower
wages, it makes no sense to me
that the immigration reform bill
includes a massive increase in
temporary guest worker programs
that will allow large corporations
to import and bring into this
country hundreds of thousands
of temporary blue-collar and
white-collar guest workers from
overseas,” Sanders said.
But then another feature was
added to the bill creating the
Sanders program and persuading
the independent senator to vote
for the bill. This program would
provide $1.5 billion over two years
for states and local communities
to help find jobs for more than
400,000 unemployed 16- to
24-year-olds.
I suspect that Sanders’ change
of heart had more to do with him
being worn down by the consensus
of progressives aligned in support
of immigration “reform,” meaning
providing legal status for the
estimated 11 million illegal
immigrants currently living in the
country. The provision of the bill
expanding work visas got little
further mention by liberals.
The sleazy pork barrel section
awarding billions of dollars in
contracts to specified companies
without going to bid got some
press mention back when the bill
was first proposed but then quietly
slipped out of the discussion.
Progressives regard the part of
the bill authorizing an ongoing
massive presence of border guards
as a concession in order to achieve
a “balanced” bill that could receive
broad support.
Actually,
the
extremely
expensive
and
presumably
ineffective upgrade in security is
just one more stupid idea added
onto a collection of stupid ideas
that comprise the Border Security,
Economic
Opportunity,
and
Immigration Modernization Act,
passed in the Senate in June of
2013 by a vote of 68 to 32. It has
not been voted on in the House of
Representatives.
When you add stupid ideas to
stupid ideas, you don’t achieve
good ideas, you just get more
stupidity. (That’s just a theory of
mine that I have yet to prove.)
Increasing border security will
not prevent illegal immigration
and it would be prohibitively
expensive to round up the 11
million illegals and deport them.
So what is the solution?
The obvious solution is to deter
businesses from hiring illegals
through an aggressive program
of fines against employers of
illegal immigrants, fines that are
stiff enough to be a deterrent
and to provide revenue for the
enforcement effort. An occasional
jail sentence for the worst repeat
offenders might also serve as a
deterrent.
So how does this administration
deal with businesses that hire
illegal immigrants?
Heather Ginsberg in the
Townhall.com Feb. 26 2014 article
“Obama Administration Eases
Penalties on Those Employing
Illegal Immigrants” reports,
“The
Obama
administration
has regularly given breaks to
businesses that hire illegal
immigrants… The Department of
Homeland Security’s inspector
general found that the Obama
administration has been reducing
these businesses’ fines by an
average of 40 percent. In one case
in particular, the U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement cut one
business’s fine from $4.9 million
to slightly more than $1 million.
This was a 78 percent cut.”
Apparently, making sporadic
and ineffectual displays of being
tough on the impoverished workers
at the bottom of the food chain is
an easier strategy to pursue than
creating real discomfort for those
at the top of the food chain.

take it to several other states before
returning home to Baja California,

SUNNYVIEW
Independence Day was festive
here at Sunnyview with an “indoor
picnic.” Liz grilled hot dogs outside
(thank you, Angela Blair, for
donating the grill). The Sunnyview
residents enjoyed all the picnic
trimmings: potato salad, baked
beans and layered lettuce salad. We
heard that each table sported a flag
with sparkles and that the dessert
cupcakes had red, white and blue
sprinkles. Several people wore
patriotic colors. Thank you to Norma
for sharing her patriotic bouquet. We
don’t necessarily want all of this to
be over - maybe we could just keep
on celebrating?
We heard news recently about the
Sunnyview courtyard – it’s looking
better and better. Thank you to Joy
Darling for sedum plants to fill in a
dirt patch on the southwest corner.
Thank you to Vicki for plants to fill
a large jardinière, and thank you
to Delores for planting them. The
hostas that Jim Hindt and Jo Ann
planted a couple years ago died with
the hard winter and new ones are
starting over outside the dining room
window to the north. Thank you to
Harold for his recent excavation
efforts. We heard that the Lavender
Sage will soon be blooming.
But wait, there’s more. The two
“swing sofas” in the courtyard have
lovely colored cushions flanked by
handy end tables. We trust that we
have seen the last of the cushioneating squirrel! Both Shirlee and
Carene received large geraniums as
gifts recently - these plants are now
beautiful with blooms, hanging in
front of their respective windows.
Besides all of that, we heard that a
bass (basswood?) tree is blooming,
as are the rose bushes on the south.
We are thankful for people who
remind us to open our eyes to see the
beauty surrounding us.
We have seen more visitors
coming and going lately. One of the
best things about going somewhere
is that home looks so good when you
get back.
The Calhoun County Expo
opened with a notable parade at 6
p.m. on July 9. The colors came
first, of course, followed by the
parade marshal and classic cars
and tractors. There were those four
beautiful horses (Belgian sorrels?)
pulling the United Bank wagon.
And don’t forget the fire trucks from
surrounding communities, vehicles
representing various businesses,
political hopefuls, etc. Afterwards,
the crowd migrated to the city park/
fairgrounds, passing the strategically
placed “root beer floats” offered
at the Depot. A new Little Miss
was duly selected, and a new Miss
Calhoun County. It was a lovely
summer evening.
If you are starting to wish for
winter weather, you can still have ice
and snow while you enjoy summer
weather: we can sip on ice-cold
lemonade instead of slipping on icecovered roads, and we can enjoy
a flavored snow-cone instead of
shoveling snow-covered sidewalks.
Of course, here at Sunnyview the
residents don’t have to shovel snow.
Remember, our website is www.
sunnyviewil.com and the coffee is
always on.
SHADY OAKS
SUNNY KNOLL
Wow its July already! 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
A treat at the Depot
Early customers could avoid the line that formed after the Expo
Parade to get a choice of a root beer or orange float served
by Rockwell City Depot Restoration as an annual fund raiser
in conjunction with the opening day of Calhoun County Expo
activities.
LOHRVILLE
My Thought for the Day is: Did
Noah fish? A Sunday school teacher
asked “Johnny, do you think Noah
fished?” No replied Johnny “How
could he, he only two worms.”
The Trivia Question for the week
is: The two farms given to Abraham
Lincoln for his services in the Black
Hawk War of 1832 were near what
two towns?
Gerry and Terry Hendricks’ visitors
from Barney Georgia were Gerry’s
sister-in-law Mary Edmonson and
her son Danny. Glad we had such
good weather for them.
Last week Dorothy Siemann had
as her over night guest her Great
Grandson Mac Kensie .from Arcadia.
Guests of Carol Hood last weekend
were her son Jim, wife Cyndy and
family of Webster City, Joe and son
Tristen of Lohrville , her son Tim
from Creaton and Mark, Carmen and
girls of Lohrville.
On Friday friends of Bette enjoyed
Lunch at a restaurant in Sac City.
Those helping Bette celebrate her
Birthday were Joan Alspach, Rose
Heath, Dorothy Siemann, and Gerry
Hendricks. What a nice afternoon we
had. Thanks girls.
Birthday best wishes for their
birthdays go out to Jacob Schmel the
18th, Lil Wirt on the 19th, Jack Parker
the 20th, Ruth Ann Dischler the 21st,
Bernece Frohling and Lori Nelsen
on the 22nd, to Aaron Hildreth and
Mike Kavanaugh on the 23rd, and to
Denise Brobst on the 24th. Hope you
all have a happy one.
The Answer to the Trivia is: Garwin
and Denison.
Well until next week. Have a good
one!

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!

Off to the Races
In celebration of Western Days,
residents and team members
participated in horse races Friday,
June 27th. Residents took turns
rolling the dice which told the racers
how many places to move…both
forward and backwards. The horses
were Trigger, Lightening, Pinky Pie,
and Black Beauty. Unfortunately,
Lightening did not live up to his
name with most agreeing that he
should have been called “Slow
Poke” for his last place finish during
the first race!

SCC girls fall to Panorama in post-season opener
By Doug Dornath
Post-season play began for the
South Central Calhoun Titans varsity
softball team Tuesday, July 8, in
Class 2A as they traveled to Panora
to take on the Panorama Panthers in
the opening round of regional play.
Unfortunately for the Titans, the
Panthers took advantage of some
free passes allowed including nine
walks, three hit batters and a handful
of errors to eventually pull away to
a 13-1 victory in four innings. The
Titans concluded the 2014 season
with a 3-21 record.
In the contest, Panorama jumped
out to an early 3-0 lead in the bottom
of the first inning and added six
more runs in the second to go up 9-0.
In the top of the third, the Titans
would plate their only run of the
game, which came with two outs.
SCC’s Maddie Brower led off
the inning by reaching base on an
infield error, stole second and then
advanced to third base on a wild
pitch, and with two outs, Haley
Birks reached base on a grounder to
the shortstop as Brower scored from
third.. Natasha Klocke followed
Haley Birks by reaching on an error
but was thrown out at second base
later in the inning attempting to steal
a base to end the SCC threat.
Panorama plated one run in the
bottom of the third inning as they
had runners reach base by a walk, an
error, one hit and one by a fielder’s
choice as Haley Birks tagged a
runner at third base for the second
out of the inning. SCC pitcher
Sydnie Schultz would get out of the
inning as she got the next batter to

Titans baseball team now
13-12 as post-season begins
By Doug Dornath
South Central Calhoun’s varsity
baseball team (13-12) wrapped up
regular season play last week and
were awaiting their first round
Class 2A, District 4 playoff game,
which was to be played Saturday,
July 12, against rival Manson
Northwest Webster at Rogers Park
north of Fort Dodge. The weather
had other ideas and the game
was moved to Monday, July 14,
because of rain showers that had
moved through the Fort Dodge
area off and on during the day
Saturday.
The winner of the first round
contest is scheduled to play at
approximately 7 p.m. against host
school Fort Dodge St. Edmond in a
District 4 semi-final. The Class 2A,
District 4 final will be at Rogers
Park in Fort Dodge Saturday, July
19, with the Class 2A, Sub-state 2
contest being held Tuesday, July
22, at Carroll.

constructed on the grounds of

The Central School bell has
been found, thanks to Don Nichols

retiring several years ago, and Mr.
Gourley, who with his wife owned
the motel over 25 years ago (Mr. G.
was custodian at Central for several
years while in Lake City), found
the bell for us and announced that
it would be brought back to Lake
City very soon, all cleaned, polished
and ready to be placed on a belfry
above the front door of Historic
Central as soon as a bell tower can
be constructed.

estate office on the second floor.
