Jacob Folkers, a 2016 graduate of Garner-Hayfield-Ventura, was crowned the 2016 North Iowa Band King. The 78th annual festival was over Memorial Day weekend in Mason City. The Band Festival Parade was Saturday, May 28. Folkers, the son of Scott and Dana Folkers, Garner, and Autumn Weaver, daughter of Todd and Penny Weaver, Garner, were the GHV candidates for Band Festival king and queen. Autumn also played percussion at GHV. Folkers participated in band for eight years at Garner. He played percussion in the concert band and quad-toms in marching band. He’s also played piano for 13 years (two years in jazz band). “I also dabble in playing the violin,” he said. Normally Folkers would have been riding in the convertible with Autumn during the parade, but he ended up marching with GHV band for most of the parade. An underclassman was going to march with the quad-toms in place of Jacob, but sustained an injury a few days earlier. “We made a plan for me to play the quad-toms until the parade was almost complete,” said Jacob. “After that, he relieve me for the last quarter mile, and I rode the rest of the way with Autumn.” Mason City Chamber of Commerce Photo Jacob Folkers However, Jacob was glad for the opportunity to march with the band one last time before heading off to Wartburg college next fall. Judges interviewed the king and queen candidates. Some of the questions candidates were asked included, “If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?”, “What are some of your proudest accomplishments in high school?”, “What are your plans for after high school?”, “What was one of the funniest / embarrassing things to ever happen to you?”, and “What was the biggest challenge that you’ve had to overcome in high school?” When the announcement came that Folkers was the 2016 Band Festival King, “my jaw almost fell off my face!” he said. In addition to band, Folkers participated in baseball, basketball, track, golf, speech, drama, choir, jazz choir, NHS, First Tech Robotics team, and the school variety show at GHV. Jacob plans to attend Wartburg College this fall and pursue a major in engineering science and physics. He also intends to be involved with music at Wartburg. “One of the scholarships I received requires me to sing in a choir at Wartburg and take vocal lessons,” he said. “I have also received information about the Wartburg bands and am thinking about auditioning for the woodwind ensemble.” This summer Jacob is working for Brant’s Lawn Care and for the Garner Country Club. Carley Miller, a graduate of Central Springs High School, was crowned the 2016 Band Festival Queen. The Garner-Hayfield-Ventura marching band placed third among 3A bands during the parade marching band competition. The North Iowa Band Festival is sponsored by the Mason City Chamber of Commerce in honor of the community’s musical heritage. More photos on pages 9a and 14a.

Emilie Jenson leadernews.map@gmail.com BRITT-A historic building in downtown Britt will be marking its 100th year of standing at the corner of Center Street and Main this year. The building, which once housed a bank, saw its future in jeopardy just over a year ago until a group of individuals stepped up to raise the funds to help spare the structure from demolition. The BRITT –Beautifying, Restoring, Investing Today and Tomorrow-Group, officially purchased the building from the City of Britt late last year, and has since begun work on the building to help return it to its original beauty. In September, a crumbling addition was torn down from the west side of the building, helping to make it safe for those who pass by. A chain link fence, which had surrounded the structure for more than four years was removed, and roof repairs are expected to be complete within the month. The completion of the roofing project will allow for more to be done in the interior of the building. The group is also in the process of applying for the century old building to be placed on the National Registry of Historic Places, which BRITT Group President Jim Nelson said BUILDING to page 2a The Garner Ceremonial Unit enters Central Park during Memorial Day Serives, May 30 at Garner. Memorial Day – a time of reconciliation Rebecca Peter gleadernews@qwestoffice.net GARNER - Central Park was the setting for Memorial Day services at Garner. Pastor Keith Hood, a U.S. Army veteran who served from 1986 to 1993, was the speaker. Hood served as a flight medic assistant with the 10th Mountain Division during Operation Desert Storm (Aug. 2, 1990 to Feb. 28, 1991). Hood gave a brief history of the origins of Memorial Day. Decorating graves of Civil War veterans occurred in both the North and South following the Civil War. 1915, John McCrae’s poem,” In Flanders Fields” inspired the sale and wearing of artificial poppies for Memorial Day to benefit disabled veterans “Memorial Day is not about division,” Hood said. “It’s about reconciliation.

It is not about picnics and camping out. It’s a time to honor those Volume 144 Number 23 USPS214-160 who gave you the right to celebrate those things. Hood noted that of the veterans in attendance at Garner, “Not one, whether he served in peacetime or in war, came back unchanged.” Whether physical or psychological changes, “every veteran in attendance today came back different from when he raised his hand and entered service.” “We cover our hearts with our hands during the national anthem out of respect for those who have given their lives and their families,” he said. “It really is up to you to teach our young …to teach the next generation…what Memorial Day truly stands for.” “We still today have those who are in harms way – those who are dying to defend freedom,” Hood said in reference to current military personnel. “We cannot let this holiday fall to the wayside.” More area Memorial Day stories and photos on pages 11a, 14a and 15a.

For Harley Olsthoorn of Garner though, the 3x3x3 cube was only the beginning. Olsthoorn had been a fan of the Rubik’s Cube for decades, but didn’t think much about what else could be out there until about a year and a half ago. Searching the internet on a whim, Olsthoorn discovered a whole world of increasingly advanced puzzles to challenge himself with, sparking an interest that has turned into a fully fledged hobby. “I looked on the internet and realized that there was a whole community of puzzle people,” said Olsthoorn. “So then I started collecting some of the other puzzles.” Today Olsthoorn has graduated far beyond the typical Rubik’s Cube. The shelves of his office are adorned with a collection of cubes, polyhedrons, and spheres, all with their own twist on the traditional rotational puzzle concept. With 107 currently in his possession, Olsthoorn has become an adept puzzle solver, capable of solving a standard cube in a matter of minutes. From the 13x13x13 cube to the 12-sided dodecahedron, Olsthoorn has spent the better part of the last two years shuffling puzzles of different shapes and sizes and putting them back together. “All puzzles work the same way,” said Olsthoorn, who uses a formula of moves to help him work out the complicated method of rearranging the various colored pieces back into order. Once he was no longer satisfied with the standard puzzles at his disposal, Olsthoorn started looking to the modding [modifying] community for an even greater challenge. Finding fellow enthusiasts at TwistyPuzzles.com, Olsthoorn discovered a new world of modifications to classic puzzles to try. By cutting, gluing, and re-stickering them, new dynamics can be added to standard puzzles. “It becomes a totally different puzzle,” said Olsthoorn. “People are making new one every week.” Inspired by the modifications he’d encountered, Olsthoorn decided to try his hand at creating a custom puzzle of his own, taking the leap from puzzle solver to puzzle maker. Not one to start small, Olsthoorn decided to design a modification to the 12-sided, nine-layered Petaminx, a monster-sized puzzle with hundreds of parts to shuffle and solve. Olsthoorn, who had already solved a Petaminx of his own, carefully plotted out a new configuration for the puzzle to increase the difficulty. Creating new puzzles can be just as challenging as solving them. To make a successful modification, one must be able to change the way pieces move without making the puzzle unsolvable. In Olsthoorn’s case, this meant designing it in a way that all BUILDING from page 1 will help determine what renovations can be done. The group will hold a celebration on Sunday afternoon, beginning at 1:30 p.m. to help commemorate the building’s 100th year in downtown Britt. “We wanted to come up with a way to help celebrate 100 years of life of this old bank,” said Connecticut Shorty, who has helped with the restoration and preservation efforts. “We thought the best way to do that would be to invite the whole town.” Paula Mohr, a an architectural historian and PHD with the Iowa State Historical Preservation Office in Des Moines, will be the featured speaker at the event. There will be a display of artifacts on the building’s history, and entertainment. Local DJ Service Mojo Productions donated their time to provide music and a sound system for the afternoon. Birthday cupcakes made by several local residents will be provided as well as a birthday cake donated by Mason City Hy-Vee and beverages provided by Wal-Mart .

Finally, in April, Olsthoorn introduced his one-of-a-kind “JAMmed Petaminx” to the puzzle community. His efforts were well rewarded, earning praise from world-renowned puzzle designer Tony Fisher for his work. For Olsthoorn, that recognition made the whole project worth the effort. “He’s a genius,” said Olsthoorn. “He’s one of my heroes.” The puzzle community was so impressed with Olsthoorn’s work that his “JAMmed Petaminx” was included in the online puzzle museum, one of ten Petaminx variations to gain the honor. “It was a fulfillment of a small dream to be recognized as a puzzle creator,” said Olsthoorn. As for the puzzle itself, Olsthoorn wanted a challenge and that’s exactly what he got. He has spent 40 to 50 hours trying to solve his custom puzzle and estimates that he’s just over half done putting it back together. In the meantime, Olsthoorn will continue to seek out new challenges, and encourages others to try the same. “Keep challenging yourself because these puzzles aren’t as hard as you think,” said Olsthoorn. “You just have to figure out how to figure it out.” More Real Estate Listings & Info at: www.jasperseninsurance.com Confused about health insurance?

(Hillary Clinton seems to have avoided this problem by going to great lengths to ensure nobody gets too excited about her campaign.) Late night phone calls aren’t reserved for national politics either. Before voting down the economic package that would have facilitated the Prestage pork plant in Mason City, the city council members shared their displeasure with the behavior of some of the project’s opponents. Specifically, the ones that called their jobs and yelled at their co-workers. Who does this? What’s happening here? Is society crumbling? Are we all just meaner than we used to be? Have we always been like this and is the internet just exposing how bad we’ve always been? Not really. No. While yes, the internet has made it easier for the worst among us to spread their toxic messages, these people should not be taken as representatives of the whole. The amount of attention we give to outliers is more of a problem than the outliers themselves. Overreacting to an overreaction has a multiplicative effect. Sometimes it’s a matter of laziness. A couple of internet trolls decide to lay out some bait for the media and the next thing you know “Racist Fans Boycott Star Wars” is trending across the web. Not because there was actually a legitimate movement, but because it’s easier to play a game of internet telephone than doing any investigative legwork. Other times, it’s a deliberate effort to push a narrative. When the video games journalism industry was caught with their pants down two years ago, sparking the ongoing Gamergate controversy, they were quick to label their detractors as sexists, racists, terrorists, and any other label they could think of to deflect attention away from their own failings. Extreme examples may make for entertaining reading, but they don’t serve well to represent the whole. The few Captain America fans that sent death threats to Nick Spencer don’t represent the people who merely think the idea is dumb. The few gamers that sent threats to Sean Murray are vastly outnumbered by the ones who expressed sentiments of support and understanding. Not all Donald Trump supporters are racists. Not all Bernie Sanders supporters are idiots. And while plenty of people have their concerns about the Prestage project, they should not be collectively represented by the guy incoherently yelling at the Mason City Chamber of Commerce about squirrels. I’m not saying that the outliers aren’t worthy of notice or discussion, but it’s important to put them in the proper context. Oddly enough, it seems like the more we try to lump people together, the more divided we get. Travis Fischer is a news writer for Mid-America Publishing and thinks there’s enough idiocy and hate in the world without manufacturing more.

Bed bugs are oval, wingless insects that reach about ¼ inch in length. They have flat bodies that are reddish-brown in color and are the size of an apple seed or smaller. They may sometimes be mistaken for ticks or small cockroaches. Bed bugs can survive for months without feeding. Bed bugs can live in any area of the home and can reside in tiny cracks in furniture as well as on textiles and upholstered furniture. They tend to be most common in areas where people sleep and generally concentrate in beds, including mattresses, box springs and bed frames. Bed bugs also can reside in curtains, the corners of dressers and other furniture, cracks in wallpaper and inside the spaces of wicker furniture. Another home for bed bugs can be used items. Individuals should be cautious and inspect items when purchasing or bringing used items (i.e. online, garage sales) into the home. “Dirty living conditions do not cause bed bugs.

Bed bugs are not known to carry or transmit disease. There are many ways to detect the presence of bed bugs. The most effective method is a visual assessment. Check for the actual bug, their droppings or eggs, or fecal staining on walls. Bed bugs are known to leave a dark brown or reddish fecal spot on bed linens, mattresses or walls near the bed. They have glands that emit an odor that has been described as musty raspberry or coriander-like that may be noticeable in heavy infestations. Should you discover you have bed bugs, there are many treatment options. Contact a pest control company. Experts can assist you in determining the appropriate treatment options and if larger items should be disposed of or treated. Heat is the best treatment. Bed bugs die in temperatures greater than 120° F. You can do this by applying the highest heat setting on your washer and dryer, or by utilizing professional services. Discarding items is typically not necessary. However, if you do discard an item, please do so responsibly. Wrap item in secure plastic sheeting to prevent spreading them elsewhere in the house, and label it with a sign reading “BED BUGS”.

The Heartland Museum is located at 119 9th St SW in Clarion. Other options to temporarily manage bed bugs or limit the severity of an infestation may include active or passive interceptor traps, mattress or box spring encasements, silica gel or desiccant dust, or vacuuming (with removable bag) and cleaning. Being educated to recognize and avoid an infestation is the best way to prevent them from being introduced into your home. When traveling and staying in hotels, pull back the bedspreads, sheets and mattress pad to examine the mattress for signs of a bed bug infestation. If you suspect they are present, contact the hotel staff. If you suspect you have them in your home or that you have been exposed, launder clothing as soon as it is brought back into the home, inspect and thoroughly vacuum suitcases or personal belongings, repair cracks in walls, and caulk windows and doors. In cases where you suspect bed bugs are present, do not move potentially infested furniture to a different room or choose to start sleeping in a different room of the home. You will risk spreading the infestation. “The bad news is, everyone is at risk for bed bugs. The good news is, everyone can play a role in limiting the spread of bed bugs if they are aware of bed bugs and remember to look for them,” Hiscocks said.

PEOPLE WHO READ NEWSPAPERS ARE: BETTER SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS LItEADER all starts THE By Travis Fischer Captain America is a Hydra spy and always has been. At least what writer Nick Spencer wants you to believe after reading the first issue of “Captain America: Steve Rogers,” which hit shelves a couple weeks ago. The details aren’t entirely clear, but it appears Captain America’s history has been rewritten to turn him into a Nazi loving double agent. The only thing more absurd than that premise is the reaction it has invoked. In spite of the fact that Captain America has, in just the last decade, been dead and turned into an elderly man (in that order), and come out of both changes no worse for ware, a surprising number of people seem to think that this is the shocking twist that will change the character forever. It won’t, but some people don’t realize this. So now Spencer is receiving the same kind of grief not seen since the last time somebody at Marvel made a huge change to a beloved character. Which, of course, includes a number of death threats. Death threats over silly things are hardly uncommon on the internet. As Spencer was dealing with the fallout from his Captain America reveal, game developer Sean Murray had the misfortune of telling an overly eager audience that the upcoming game, “No Man’s Sky,” had been delayed. That’s right. Death threats over the relatively common practice of delaying a video game. People can get really passionate about things. Outside of pop culture, we see similar behavior in politics. Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders have very little in common when it comes to their political platform, but both have attracted a contingent of, let’s say “spirited” supporters.

HCHS Clinics join more than 5,000 program sites nationwide that are preparing America’s youngest children to succeed in school. Providers, nurses and other medical professionals incorporate Reach Out and Read’s evidence-based model into regular pediatric checkups, by advising parents about the importance of reading aloud and giving developmentally-appropriate books to children. They are essentially providing families with “prescriptions to read.” “We know that reading and the ability to read is the door opener to the 21st century – especially in today’s world, which is full of digital information,” said Jamie Brantner, PA-C, HCHS Clinics. Reach Out and Read begins at the 6-month checkup and continues through age 5, with a special emphasis on children growing up in low-income communities. Families served by Reach Out and Read read together more often, and their children enter kindergarten with larger vocabularies and stronger language skills, better prepared to achieve their potential. Pediatric healthcare providers are trained in the three-part Reach Out and Read model to promote early literacy and school readiness. In the exam room, doctors and nurses speak with parents about the importance of reading aloud to their young children every day, and offer age-appropriate tips and encouragement. The pediatric primary care provider gives every child 6 months through 5 years old a new, developmentally appropriate children’s book to take home and keep. In the waiting room, displays, information, and books create a literacy-rich environment. “Reach Out and Read is an efficient and effective concept,” said Reach Out and Read acting Executive Director Brian Gallagher. “Our providers and nurses know that the most important thing that parents can do to prepare their children to succeed in school and beyond is to read aloud to them every day. Encouraging Jamie Brantner parents to stimulate their children’s early language and brain development during regular pediatric checkups is a simple model that has a lasting, invaluable impact on the life of a child.” Reach Out and Read is a proven intervention that delivers results, and is supported by 15 independent, published research studies. During the preschool years, children served by Reach Out and Read score three to six months ahead of their non-Reach Out and Read peers on vocabulary tests. These foundational language skills help start children on a path of success when they enter school. Reach Out and Read is an evidence-based nonprofit organization of medical providers who promote early literacy and school readiness in pediatric exam rooms nationwide by giving new books to children and advice to parents about the importance of reading aloud. The end goal of Reach Out and Read is to prepare all children to enter kindergarten ready to read, learn, and succeed. The Reach Out and Read model is endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the program has one of the strongest records of research support of any primary care intervention. This year, Reach Out and Read’s 20,000 volunteer medical providers will distribute 6.5 million new books to 4 million children at more than 5,000 healthcare locations in all 50 states.

Bamrick scored the lone goal in the match. GHV girls gain first regional soccer win Post-season soccer action began for Class 1A girls last week and the GHV squad made history by winning their first-ever regional match. The Cardinals hosted Clear Lake on Monday, coming out on top in a defensive battle. The season then ended on Friday with the Cards’ were second round loss at Hudson. Payton Bamrick’s long range goal proved to be enough on Tuesday as GHV avenged two previous losses to Clear Lake by a score of 1 – 0. The Cardinals had plenty of scoring opportunities with Autumn Weaver finishing with seven shots on goal. Bamrick was credited with two shots on goal while Jacki Van Oort and Hannah Lau each had one. Morgan Westendorf picked up six saves at the goal for GHV. Cardinal coach Josh Banse commented, “This is the first time we have ever gotten a victory in regional play! We had a game plan to occupy the middle and we executed it to perfection. It is always nice to see e girls dig deep for a victory and that was especially true tonight.” GHV’s season came to a close in Friday’s second round regional game at Hudson. The Pirates took advantage of playing on their home field in a 4 – 0 decision over the Cards. Hudson’s defense kept GHV away from the net as Payton Bamrick and Payton Echelberger managed only two and one shots-ongoal. Morgan Westendorf finished the night with five saves. “Hudson is a good team and we played well enough to compete with them,” remarked Banse. “Our seniors will be missed tremendously next season! Seniors were Autumn Weaver, Payton Bamrick, Hannah Sokol, Sydney Childress and Ashlee Diaz. These five girls have accumulated thousands of minutes on the pitch and it will be hard to replace them. The good thing is that we are moving in the right direction and improving every year! We had a good season and fought hard. We won’t hang our heads but will start working to keep that improvement going!” The Cardinals finished the season with an overall record of 7-9.

HANCOCK COUNTY - School just got out, but now is the perfect time to make sure your child(ren) are ready for next fall. “It’s never too early to schedule your child’s back to school physical,” said Lenise Kollasch, director, HCHS clinics. “There are some students who need a physical whether it’s to begin school as a kindergartner or college freshmen or to participate in high school athletics.” The first year of school (kindergarten), each student will receive a complete physical that includes a review of the child’s medical history, a physical examination, and an immunization update. All student athletes have to have a physical before they can begin to practice. At HCHS, this means he/ she will receive a complete physical, as well as having the HCHS provider complete the necessary forms needed for sports or school participation. For college-bound students, much like the first year of school physicals, each college freshman will receive a complete physical and an immunization update. While having an annual physical is a must for some students, it should be on the list for all adults, as well. “I certainly understand why a person would question why you would go see the doctor if you are feeling fine, but an annual check-up will offer your healthcare provider an opportunity for primary prevention, meaning preventing disease before it happens, by addressing risk factors in otherwise healthy individuals,” Kollasch said. GHV added another TIC softball win to their record last week with a 3 – 1 win over Lake Mills on Friday. After being rained out on Tuesday, the Cards fell to Garrigan on Wednesday and Humboldt on Thursday. The Cardinals then dropped a pair of non-conference games at Lake Mills on Saturday in tournament play. There was plenty of offense on display at Algona on Wednesday as the Cards and Garrigan combined to plate 29 runs. GHV scored twice in the top of the first inning only to see the Golden Bears score eight times in their half of the inning. The Cards added three to their total in the second inning and Garrigan again answered, this time with four runs in the bottom of the second. After two scoreless innings, both teams added runs to their total in their last three at-bats. When the dust settled at the end of the game, Garrigan finished on the winning side of a 17 – 12 decision. Katie Oetken slammed a homer and two singles to lead GHV at the plate while Bailee Pitzenberger added a double and two singles for the Cards. Abby Kale chipped in a double and a single while Jacki Van Oort and Payton Bamrick each collected three singles. Mackenzie Van Gerpen and Jillian Heitland added base hits to the Cardinal offense. The Cardinals hosted Humboldt on Thursday in a non-conference outing against the 14-ranked Wildcats. Humboldt displayed power at the plate as they recorded a 10-run 12 – 2 seven-inning win. The Wildcats scored twice in the first inning and when GHV answered with two in their half of the first Cardinal fans were optimistic about being able to play with the Wildcats. Humboldt then displayed why they are ranked, scoring six runs in the second inning to take control of the game. GHV was unable to bring home any more runs and Humboldt gradually built their lead to end the game early. Mackenzie Van Gerpen and Megan Oetken each hit doubles to lead the GHV offense. Jacki Van Oort and Abby Kale added base hits for follow. Rick Ermer Photo GHV catcher, Megan Oetken, stops a pitch in the dirt during the Cards 3-1 rain shortened game with Lake Mills. the Cards.

GHV got back into the win column on Friday in a rain-shortened game against Lake Mills. The Cards scored a run in the third inning and two more in the fourth on the way to a 3 – 2 victory. The game was called due to rain in the bottom of the fifth. Miranda Jackson led GHV at the plate with a double while Jayden Hughes, Bailee Pitzenberger, Megan Oetken and Trinity Smith all singled. Jillian Heitland earned the pitching win for the Cards, scattering four hits and four walks with four strikeouts. GHV traveled to Lake Mills on Saturday for two tournament games against unfamiliar opponents. In that action the Cards lost to a very strong Central Springs team before dropping a close game to Rockford. Central Springs is rated eighth in Class 2A and the Panthers had little trouble handling the inexperienced Cardinals. GHV was unable to gain a hit in the game while Central Springs scored four times in the first inning and then plated 11 more in the second to end the game with a 15 – 0 win in three Many conditions, such as heart disease and high blood pressure, can be present without symptoms until they become serious. So by having an annual check-up, your provider can work with you to potentially prevent these illnesses before they occur. To prepare for any physical, whether for your child or yourself, you should create a list of questions and be sure to prioritize what is most to least important. You might even want to make it very clear at the beginning of the visit what you really want to discuss. On the flip side, you should allow time for your provider to address their top concerns about your health. They may have important information to share regarding a blood test result or a new medical recommendation for you that is worth listening to.

Jacki Van Oort and Miranda Jackson added base hits to the offense. Ashley Markla started on the mound for GHV and allowed eight hits with four strikeouts. Bailee Pitzenberger relieved Markla in the fifth inning and gave up five hits. GHV coach Matt Graham commented, “We’re still giving up too many outs defensively. We need to shore up our defense. The hitting is coming along but we’re not getting the twoout hit with people on base and we’re also having trouble getting that third out when we’re in the field.” The Cards are now 2 – 5 on the season and will travel to Eagle Grove on Monday before hosting Osage in non-conference action on Tuesday. After taking Wednesday off, GHV will travel to Rockford on Thursday for another non-conference before returning home on Friday to face North Union.

Bailee finished solidly in third after outscoring the fourth place finisher by four strokes. Frayne played at Coldwater Links Golf Course in Ames with her first day of play scheduled on Tuesday. Bailee scored three pars, three bogeys and three doubles on the way to a 44 on the front nine and then began the back nine with a disastrous triple-bogey. Two more bogeys put the GHV star in a bit of a hole but Frayne bounced back with a string of four pars and a birdie before bogeying the final hole in a rain storm. After the first day of play, Bailee’s 84 put her in a tie for fifth place overall with 18 more holes on Wednesday. Frayne’s first nine holes on Wednesday produced her best round of the season with an Eagle, three pars and five bogeys totaling 38. Again, the second nine began with a terribly as errant shots into a hazard resulted in a score of eight for the par 4 hole. Bailee responded with a birdie and a par on the next two holes before going four over on the next three holes. Frayne finished the round with three pars to shoot 43 on that nine and total 81 for the day. Frayne’s two-day total of 165 was 11 shots shy of second and 25 strokes out of first place. out GWGA Weekly Recap Sheet Week of June 1, 2016 Red Golfers: Scratch – June Van Oort (62).

However, when parents and children engage in mealtime battles, nobody wins. Instead, parents should focus on preventing power struggles over food, say the Science of Parenting bloggers from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. “Most kids get plenty of variety and nutrition in their diet, even if they don’t want to eat particular foods,” said Lori Hayungs, a human sciences specialist in family life. “But if you’re concerned about your child’s eating habits, talk to your health care provider who can help you review your child’s growth. Start a ‘food log’ and keep track of the types and amounts of food your child eats and share that information with your healthcare provider as well,” Hayungs said. In June, Hayungs and other human sciences specialists will be blogging about how to make mealtime fun rather than a power struggle. They’ll talk about establishing healthy food routines and giving kids opportunities to make their own food choices. They’ll also discuss the importance of modeling healthy eating behaviors and strategies for removing distractions like television and electronic gadgets during mealtime. “Your child’s eating habits won’t change overnight, but the small steps you take each day can help promote a lifetime of healthy eating,” Hayungs said. Learn more from tips on the blog throughout the month and in a short podcast. Through the Science of Parenting, www.scienceofparenting.org, ISU Extension and Outreach specialists share and discuss research-based information and resources to help parents rear their children. Parents can join in the conversation and share thoughts and experiences, as well as how they handle parenting responsibilities. The new flags at the Ell Township Cemetery were donated by Leland Hummel and his wife, the late Beulah Hummel and family: Curt and Diane Stadlander, Joleen and Ben Chiodo and families. The Avenue of Flags for Memorial Day at Klemme was started by Elmer and Gladys Wessels during the 1970s. The tradition contkinues to this day. Memorial Day honors fallen comrades Rebecca Peter gleadernews@qwestoffice.net KLEMME - Don Latham, a veteran of the Vietnam War, was the Memorial Day speaker at Klemme. Latham was a pilot operations officer and flew assault helicopter missions from 197071. His unit’s primary mission was to support a South Vietnamese infantry division. “Today is the day set aside to honor those who served, but did not live but did not live to be called veterans.” “We say these men and women gave their lives for their country,” he said. “But of those that I knew, I don’t think any willingly gave their life. I prefer to say their lives were taken from them while they served their country.” An estimated 58,267 Americans died in Vietnam. That number continues to change as remains of servicemen are recovered and identified. Other servicemen, listed as missing in action, are declared dead with the passage of time. “I’ve never been afraid of dying – I wasn’t then and I’m not now. But that doesn’t mean I wasn’t scared. I was scared on most missions I flew. I remember well the first time I was shot at,” he recalled. “Later that evening, I got to thinking about the folks who wouldn’t be returning and the fact they were killed.” Latham survived his tour of duty. “Some of my classmates and friends were not as fortunate,” he stated. “The best way I can honor those with whom I served and made the ultimate sacrifice is to dispell some of the myths and popular beliefs that tend to discredit or minimize the men and women who served in Vietnam. He said one such myth was that America lost the war in Vietnam. “The fact is this was a politically driven war,” he stated. “The rules of engagement were such that we were not allowed to return fire until we got clearance from the political hierarchy. That greatly hindered the military from doing their job.” Rebecca Peter | The Leader Don Latham, a veteran of the Vietnam war, was the Memorial Day speaker at Klemme. “The United States didn’t lose the war in Vietnam. The South Vietnamese did after Congress cut off funding that was promised in the Paris Peace accords. The South Vietnamese ran out of fuel, ammunition, and supplies because of a lack of support from the U.S. Congress.” Latham has returned to Vietnam three times since the war: twice on business and a third trip recently with two other veteran U.S. pilots and their wives. He has worked with a Vietnamese contractor who was an officer in the North Vietnamese Army, but has since become a friend. “He told me [the North Vietnamese] knew they couldn’t win militarily. If they just waited, the American media and public opinion would win the war for them.” “I just want to say that my service in Vietnam was noble and for a just cause. And my comrades in arms who didn’t live to be veterans, did not die in vain.” Your Custom Printing Specialists BUSINESS & PERSONAL PRINTING Business Cards Letterhead Envelopes Newsletters Wide Format Banners & Posters Becky Bottorff Printing Project Coordinator 641.456.2585, ext. 113 CustomPrinting@midamericapub.com Photo Printing Business Forms Brochures & Flyers Custom Invitations Graphic Design Services Print Marketing www.MidAmPublishing.com FREE No-Obligation Quotes FREE Local Delivery FAST Service Call Us Today! 800.558.1244 LOCAL 12A The Leader • Wednesday, June 8, 2016 www.theleaderonline.net MEMORIAL DAY Corwith Photos by Joella Leider | The Leader Memorial Day parade at Corwith.

Mid-America Publishing purchases Holstein Advance Mid-America Publishing Corporation is pleased to announce its purchase of The Holstein Advance and Tri-Valley AdVance Publishing from Mari Bauer, of Holstein, effective May 31, 2016. The Advance will be added to the Hampton-based corporation’s growing roster of 30 Iowa weekly newspapers and shoppers. Other nearby papers also owned by Mid-America include those in Ida Grove and Lake City. “We are excited to assume the ownership of The Advance,” said Mid-America Publishing’s President and CEO, Ryan Harvey. “After we purchased the Courier and Reminder from Roger Rector nearly a year ago, we began discussing the opportunity of buying The Advance from Mari shortly thereafter.” The transfer of ownership is related to the Bauer’s decision to pursue other interests. “We want to thank Mari for allowing Mid-America to continue the legacy of the Advance,” Harvey said. “We know she’s put her heart and soul into the paper and we look forward to working with the area customers to provide a strong news product going forward.” Harvey will assume the duties and title of publisher of the newspaper while the staff of the Courier and Reminder will be responsible for its day to day operations. “We believe a local newspaper needs to have local content,” Harvey said. “Our mission going forward is to tell the stories of local residents, report on local events, and give strong coverage of local government at the city, county, and school district levels. One of the specialties of the staff in Ida Grove has been to provide quality indepth coverage in Holstein. We’ll ensure the paper’s future by providing unique content, unique pho- Klemme Ag Days Saturday, June 18 tos, and quality journalism for the folks in the Holstein area.” The publication will join Mid-America’s portfolio of weekly newspapers which aside from the Courier and Reminder also include: The Calmar Courier; Postville Herald; The Outlook, in Monona; The Eldora Herald-Ledger and Hardin County Index, with an office in Eldora; The Leader, with offices in Garner and Britt; the Kanawha Reporter, the Wright County Monitor, in Clarion and Dows; the Eagle Grove Eagle; the Buffalo Center Tribune, The Pioneer Enterprise (Rockwell-Thornton), The Sheffield Press; The Hampton Chronicle; The Butler County Tribune-Journal (Allison); the Clarksville Star, the Ida County Courier in Ida Grove; The Ogden Reporter, and The Graphic-Advocate, with offices in Lake City and Rockwell City. The company also owns and operates newspapers in southeast Iowa, namely, The News-Review, in Sigourney, The Keota Eagle, Keota, and The Sun with offices in New Sharon and Fremont. The company additionally produces two weekly political newspapers, the Conservative Chronicle and the Liberal Opinion Week as well as several TMC shoppers, such as The Hampton Chronicle’s Bonus in Hampton, The Spectrum in Lake City-Rockwell City, The Leader’s Shopper News Review in Garner, The Reminder in Ida Grove; and the Wright County Reminder in Clarion; plus monthly shoppers such as The Dual County Leader in Eagle Grove and the Keokuk County Chief in Sigourney. The company also publishes north central Iowa’s only Latino-oriented newspaper, Viva Iowa! which serves Franklin and Wright Counties. In addition to its newspapers and shoppers Mid-America operates a commercial printing division that offers customized printing and publishing solutions such as banners, posters, postcards, direct mailing, mailing list management, letter head design, newsletter management and dozens of other marketing and promotional products which it plans to make available locally in the Holstein area.
