A new generation
remembers veterans
The current surge in veteran memorial projects is an echo of similar
initiatives which marked Eldora after the Civil War
By Rick Patrie
News Editor
ELDORA – The last few years
will be remembered as ones when
experiences-at-war sort of wrote the
national narrative.
And, not surprisingly, the same
years have been marked by a big
program of construction – the erection of a wave of small and big town
veteran memorials.
The passing of the World War II
generation likely gave impetus to it.
But this hasn’t been the first period of its kind.
There was another era of widespread monument construction in
the wake of the American Civil War.
And now as organizers plan a con-

ELDORA – The rules are simple.
Timing is everything. There are lots
of prizes for whomever take the distinction of being the first Eldora area
baby, born after the stroke of midnight, 2015.
A host of sponsors have offered
gifts again this year.
Everything goes to the first baby of
2015 born to parents who live within a 15 miles radius of Eldora. To
be eligible the parents are required
to contact the Eldora Newspapers,
phone is 641-939-5051, and do so
within 48 hours of the birth. You
need to furnish the child’s name,
and the address and names of the
parents, the time of birth, the place
of birth, the sex of the baby and the
baby’s weight. It is not necessary for
the birth to occur in the Eldora area,
but the parents’ address must be
within a 15-mile radius of the city.
So, if you are the lucky parents of
a new child early in the New Year,
contact the newspaper.
temporary veterans’ memorial here
in Eldora, that earlier legacy is still
about. The most recognized product
occupies a spot on the courthouse
grounds, but there is another more
obscure marker in the city east side
cemetery, an inconspicuous little
known gravestone-size marker to
the unknown dead of the Civil War,
and subsequently to wars after. You
will know it for the initials GAR emblazed on its crest.
GAR, as in The Grand Army of
the Republic.
If you have ever attended Memorial Day services in the city cemetery
you have stood in its vicinity.
The Grand Army of the Republic
was at its height, the veteran’s orga-
nization to end all veterans organizations. It’s stone here in Eldora was
one of hundreds installed over and
over in the states of the old Union.
The University of Iowa historical libraries notes the GAR was a
fraternal order open to honorably
discharged soldiers of the Union services. In 1866 it organized an Iowa
post, among the first state’s in the
nation to do so. As a percentage of
population, Iowa was reported to
have contributed more soldiers to
the Union effort than any other state.
Though the GAR started strong, in
just five years it had temporarily dissolved in Iowa. In 1872 the national
organization pushed to re-start the
Iowa program with some success.
Nationally, the Grand Army of the
Republic reached its peak in 1890,
when it had a national membership
of 490,000. Iowa reached its peak
then, too, with 435 posts and a membership of 20,234. After this time the
number of posts remained constant
for years, but overall membership
declined. The national GAR was finally dissolved in 1956, when its last
member died.
But before it dissolved, it left a
couple of namesake marks on Hardin County. The cemetery monument here and a building site in Iowa
Falls.
Though at their inception the
membership decided that they were
(continued on page 3)
This fixture of the Eldora cemetery marks another time when
the country launched on a wave of memorials honoring veterans.
Then it was around the turn of the Twentieth Century, when the
intentions were to recall the Union veterans of the Civil War. The
monument in Eldora was dedicated under the auspices of the
Grand Army of The Republic. It recognized the war’s unknown
dead, and eventually the stone here included the unknown dead
of wars subsequent. A timely echo of the past, as today Eldora
organizers are launching an up to date memorial project.
January means another
local photo showcase
Calendar season wraps-up for area printer
by Rick Patrie
News Editor
HARDIN COUNTY – 2015 is
now officially in circulation.
And since it’s January, that means
Jim Daggs and crew at Ackley Publishing get to recharge the ink wells.
They’ve been up to their ears in
another year’s worth of photo opportunities siezed.
Happy little pigs and bald eagles.
Sleepy squirrels, cute calves being
mothered, whole fields of tulips and
a single red rose all frosted and shivering. Local photographers founds
subjects in everything.
The stuff of another calendar
printing season.
Ackley Publishing is one of those
places you go if you want that Look
Magazine look in your reproductions. And this newspaper’s next
door neighbor, Green Belt Bank and
Trust, went to Daggs when it compiled its 2015 calendar contest winners.
2015 includes a beautiful fall view
of the walks near the stone cabins
just off Lower Pine Lake. The year
features an bald eagle stalking the
dam at Steamboat Rock, and later in
the year comes one of the happiest
little pigs in all of Hubbard.
There is that snoozing squirrel,
Ackley trees decked in frost, a single
red rose chilling in Grundy Center,
an ornamental windmill-transformed
magically. There is cow and her calf
heartstrings puller.
But in the end it was Janine Allbee
who took the winning spot on the
cover, with her photo of that bridge
below Pine Lake all decked out in
autumn. She shared the calendar
with Ashley Sicard, Allison Ruth,
Kendra Bunger, Mary Nelson, Ben
Humphrey, Erica Nolte, Ferrol Hilsabeck, Ali Nelson, Pam O’Hare and
Tom Samp. There weren’t enough
months in the year for all the great
photos, the bank said, so a page was
added for Darwin Phatizgraff, Whitney Luscombe, Colette Swieter,
Stephanie Weber, and Melissa Bell.
Calendar season is a little like fall
on the farm. One of the busier times
of printer’s year. Daggs say they solicit work like that done for the local
bank all around Iowa and in neighboring states, too.
He says the clients, a lot of banks
and similar institutions, love calen-

business scene
Justin Damm has enrolled his sons in the family business,
though he admits it will be a little while before the youngsters
become active partners. But he is active, the Wellsburg man now
operating Damm and Sons Towing, Tire and Repair, is offering a
full line of mechanical, tire and towing services, working out of
an address on the same property site as A & E Collision Specialists, who are at 2131 Edgington Avenue in Eldora. He is building
next door to A & E but is currently open for service.

dars because they keep you glancing
at the sponsor year round. And there
is no better way to command the eye
than to use some picturesque local
images.
He says the one diversion from
scenery and friendly livestock is an
occasional turn to local history for
the 12 months of material.
But far and away reproduction is
of Mother Nature, local scenery, cute
kids, and cuter animals.
Daggs has been in this specialized
image making since about 1993. He
came to it after a considerable time
in the newspaper business, including
a stint here in Eldora.
He went to Ackley to work on the
paper there and that brought experience with the high end commercial
printing which became the job of his
dreams.
He says dealing with the various
types of submitted-art is streamline
today. Digital cameras are ubiquitous and the computer graphics and
enhancement programs he uses are
almost universally compatible.

It’s a New Year!!!
Home on the holidays
Pictured celebrating the approaching holiday season and
gathering up for a little fellowship in general, you can find

NEW PROVIDENCE – Thanks
again to KD Burkett for always
taking the time to make sure folks
around the rea know what’s happening in New Providence.
They really do not need an excuse
to gather at the Soda Fountain , thre
are still good ones, as the center has
become a focual point for socializing and for fundraising charitable
activities in the community.
For the last several years the or
nate old commercial shop has been
hosting weekly breakfasts as a matter of course, and then Tuesday, December 9, it’s volunteers welcomed
42 neighbors to the community meal
held at the Fountain. This time it was
sponsored by the Prayer Care Share
Group of New Providence. Youngsters attending did some arts and
crafts that took the theme of the upcoming celebration of the Nativity.
The adults in attendance, those
not already regulars enjoyed renewing friendships. And all felt com-
fortable enough to linger after supper and visit.
The Prayer Care Share Group sponsored the meal its continuing efforts
to keep everyone in touch around
town.
A lot of hands go into preparing the community meal – itself a
follow-up of two Block Parties held
earlier in the summer to gather the
community and share in friendship.
Grundy Hospital Wellness Fair
GRUNDY CENTER - Today’s

loves his work, and cant for the
life of him figure out how he could
have ever done anything else.
“It was a fair evening in the summer of 1969 when 13-year-old Jim
Daggs walked past the print shop in
his hometown. Through the screen
door, he got his first whiff of printers ink.
“Not only did that pungent aroma get his attention, but the steady
clanking of the old handfed printing
press became music to his ears.”
That first print shop was Service Printing Company in Eldora
he notes crediting the late John E.
Tomb with teaching his young apprentice the basic principles of the
printing craft.
Printing became the work of his
dreams for apprentice Daggs, his
company site says. He began reading and studying all he could on the
subject, along with all of the handson learning he could get.
“Within a year he had acquired a
small press of his own for $25, a selection of hand-set type, and other
odds and ends of the trade. With
these new supplies, he took over
a corner of the basement in his fa-
ther’s sporting goods store in Eldora.
“The printing orders at that time
consisted mostly of items for family, friends and the store upstairs.
He says he soon made his way to
the newspaper office in Eldora,
and found other printers who were
willing to teach him more about
the trade, and a publisher who was
willing to let him work and learn.
Al Schafter, publisher of the Eldora
newspapers, soon had a full-fledged
printer, and a put him on the payroll.
Later he took a job at Spokesman
Press in Grundy Center as a printer
and Linotype operator and returned
full time to the Eldora newspapers
and then in 1975 was offered the
chance to manage the newspaper
and printing department in Ackley.
His long time printer friend Chuck
Dunham had purchased the Ackley business and entrusted it to this
18-year-old printer.
“In 1977, feeling a desire to learn
more about the trade, Jim took a job
with the Woolverton Printing Company in Cedar Falls, and it was during that year that he learned about
the offset (or lithography) process of
printing from some of the best print-
ers in the area.”
He returned to Ackley in 1978 and
purchased shares in the Ackley Publishing Company, then a local weekly newspaper. In 1983 Jim was able
to purchase the rest of the company
from the Dunhams. In 1992 he purchased the Anderson Printing Company in nearby Iowa Falls—renaming it Iowa Falls Printing Company.
Then Jim’s desire to concentrate
solely on printing, led him to sell the
newspaper portion of the business in
1993.
“In 1997 an adjoining 7,200
square foot warehouse and production facility was purchased in Ackley, and iequipped to produce a wide
variety of specialty printed items.”

Volunteers continue canvass
for Eldora veterans monument
Fund raising
announced below
right this page
By Rick Patrie
News Editor
ELDORA – The Eldora Veterans
Monument campaign has an address
and volunteers invite the correspondence to begin.
The project envisions construction
of a monument bearing the names of
Eldora service veterans, posted at
the east side entry to town overlooking the Iowa River, in what was long
known as Deer Park.
Check the ad on this same page for
details on the project, and keep the
address if you would like to make a
contribution or would like to submit
the name of an Eldora veteran for inclusion.
It was just a short time ago that
organizers announced a campaign to
construct the memorial, following on
similar projects local folks may have
seen in Wellsburg, in Iowa Falls, and
most recently, one completed at the
cemetery in Steamboat Rock.
All proved to be long running
projects, marshalling volunteers in
gathering the names of eligible veterans.
Projects of the kind have become
common community undertakings
during the last couple of decades.
In fact, a wave of veteran’s monument installations over the last few
years.
Organizers have recently worked
with the city and singled out the
once-Deer Park area for the eventual installation. The site overlooks
the Iowa River and is a first view for
anyone entering the community over
the river bridge.
Since the beginning the plan was
to fund the whole memorial by fundraising efforts, and the ad below
notes that those interested in contributing can contact organizers through
their Post Office Box 214, Eldora,
50627 address.
Donations are tax deductible. All
the money raised will go to the monument project and checks should
be made out payable to the city of
Eldora-Veterans Monument Fund.
At the same time the names of individuals submitted for inclusion on
the stone memorial can also be sent
to the Eldora Veterans Monument
Fund address. Note the specifications listed on the ad.
The project has been outlined in
a number of newspaper articles and
was the subject of an address at the
most recent Veteran’s Day commemoration held in the Eldora-New
Providence Elementary school just a
couple of months ago. (check the ad
on this page.)
The GAR left other reminders here in Hardin County. For instance, the Iowa Falls WRC Hall, The Women’s Relief Corps Charles Payne Post #48 of Iowa Falls - erected in 1898. It was
also used by the GAR Post. It is located on 710 Washington Ave.
on the west side of the business district.
Grand Army
of the Republic
(continued from page 1)
not going to a political group, the
GAR ended up being one of the first
advocacy groups in America, says
the university library.
They advocated for voting rights
for black veterans. In Iowa, it was
largely due to the influence of the
GAR that the Soldiers Home in Marshalltown was built after the legislature appropriated $100,000 in 1886
for the purpose. In 1889, the legislature authorized the Soldiers Relief
Fund. In 1904, encouraged by the
GAR, the legislature gave veterans
preference in public employment,
though by this time most of the Civil
War veterans had aged out of the
work force.
Monuments to the Civil War dead
were also a priority for the Iowa
GAR and they lobbied for state funding for monuments in Des Moines
and Vicksburg.
The GAR was so powerful that
Iowa government gave them a
room in the state capitol to be used
as a permanent headquarters, for
which the state appropriated funds
for maintenance. The Iowa GAR
was instrumental in seeing that almost all of the schools in Iowa had
a flag to raise every morning and
the Woman’s Relief Corps (the
women’s auxiliary to the GAR) had
placed in every school in Iowa a
pamphlet about care of flags.
Also of note, in his General Order
dated May 5, 1868, the then-G.A.R.
national Commander-in-Chief first
declared May 30 to be Memorial
Day (also referred to for many years
as “Decoration Day”), calling upon
the G.A.R. membership to make the
May 30 observance an annual occurrence. The order effectively established “Memorial Day.”
The GAR’s political power grew
during the latter part of the 19th century, and it helped elect several Republican United States Presidents,
beginning with Ulysses S. Grant
and ending with William McKinley.

Grants help connect
Children to Iowa’s
agricultural story
AGWSR - Over 2,000 students
from Northeast Iowa schools including a number from the AGWSR
elementary in Wellsburg now have
an opportunity they may have otherwise missed, to learn firsthand about
Iowa’s rich agricultural story.
For the 2014-2015 school year,
Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area (SSNHA) awarded over
$9,500 to 35 schools within the
Heritage Area. These schools are
able to visit 18 different agriculture
destinations, including SSNHA Partner Sites and working farms. From
milking a cow at Hansen’s Dairy
in Hudson to learning about water
conservation at a family farm near
West Union, the bus grant program
immerses students in a variety of agricultural experiences.
The bus grants help cover the
transportation costs associated with
field trips to SSNHA Partner Sites
and farms throughout the region.
Grants are awarded on a first-received, first-funded basis to accredited Pre K-12 public, private or
charter schools located in the Heritage Area; with a maximum of $350
per school building. Funding for this
program is made possible through
individual contributions, corporate donations and federal funds.
These contributors have helped over
14,000 students explore American
agriculture since the program started
in 2007. Specifically, SSNHA would
like to thank the GROWMARK
Foundation for their ongoing financial support of the Bus Grant Program, beginning in 2010.
“We are excited to once again offer this program that allows students
to expand their knowledge of agriculture through hands-on learning
opportunities. By visiting cultural
and farm sites here in Iowa, students
see the stories of America’s agriculture brought to life,” commented
Don Short, SSNHA President.
SSNHA is currently working to
raise funds for the 2015-2016 school
year. To donate to the SSNHA Education Scholarship Fund, visit www.

Holiday postscripts
It’s all over, Christmas and the New Year, and things are back to normal, but when things were
in preparation just a few days ago, you could find the people at Greenbelt Home Care finishing
up their annual Christmas Charity Drive, collecting household necessities and more for some of
the county nurse service clients who could use a little help at Christmas. The health nurse office,
represented in the above photo by Jamie Bakker, enlisted donors from all around the county to
help fill the stockings of adults and some children too. Then the nursing staff and the homemaker
aids went out in a pre-Christmas Santa mission. We’ll bring you the totals in the coming issue of
the papers. Meanwhile in the local elementary school the kids got a send off for Christmas with
a special session where everyone exchanged teachers for an afternoon and spent the last hours
before holiday making crafts for the holidays.

HARDIN COUNTY – Iowa State
University Extension and Outreach
will host a Crop Advantage meeting on January 8, from 9 a.m. to
4 p.m., at the Muse-Norris Conference Center on the North Iowa
Area Community College campus
in Mason City.
The program is hosted by Terry
Basol and Angie Rieck-Hinz, Extension Field Agronomists serving
north central Iowa. Crop Advantage
provides the latest information to
promote profitable and sustainable
decision-making for the upcoming
growing season.
“The Mason City location features a variety of topics, including
crops, pests, soil fertility, and farm
management,” said Angie RieckHinz, Extension field agronomist in
North Central Iowa. “Each year, at-
tendees tell us they are interested
in so many of the topics but can’t
be at every workshop. The topics
are in demand. It’s a great problem to have.”
Chad Hart, extension economist will kick off the meeting
with a crop market outlook. Leonor Leandro will discuss soybean sudden death syndrome current research and management
techniques. ISU Extension soil
fertility specialists John Sawyer
and Antonio Mallarino will discuss optimizing fertilizer inputs
with lower crop prices. Mark
Licht will discuss maturity and
planting date influence on yield.
Other talks include information
on the Farm Bill, managing herbicide resistance, water quality
and cover crops.
Each year over 2,000 producers
participate in a Crop Advantage
meeting. Crop Advantage meetings are approved for Iowa private pesticide applicator recertification. Attendees must attend the
entire meeting to receive recertification, which is included in the
meeting registration fee. Meetings are also approved for Certified Crop Adviser (CCA) credits.
Registration is $60 at the door.
Registration includes lunch, proceedings booklet, and private applicator recertification and CCA
credits. For online registration,

other Crop Advantage meetings

The Crop
Advantage Series is presented
by ISU Extension and Outreach
with support from the Iowa Soybean Association and from North
Central SARE–Sustainable Agriculture Research.
Postville Newspaper joins
Mid-America Group
Effective Thursday, Jan. 1, 2015,
the Postville Herald will be published by a new owner, Mid-America Publishing Corporation based
in Hampton, IA. Mid-America had
entered into an agreement earlier in
December 2014 to purchase the publication from Jason Meyer dba Meyer Publishing, L.C. and the January
7th edition will mark the first edition
under Mid-America’s stewardship.
“We are very excited to add the
Postville Herald to our family of
newspapers,” said Ryan Harvey,
President and CEO of Mid-America
Publishing. “We’ve been working
with Jason throughout the year to
put this transaction together and we
are happy that we were able to come
to terms in time to coincide with the
new year. Harvey further added “We
appreciate all the hard work Jason
has put in with the papers over the
past few years and we look forward
to continuing to build upon the tradition that he has established.” Terms
of the purchase have not been released.
The publications will join a growing network of 21 Iowa weekly newspapers, which are owned and operated by Mid-America and which as
some readers may be aware include
one nearby publication, The Calmar
Courier. In addition to The Courier,
other Mid-America newspapers include; The Grundy Register, of
Grundy Center; The Record, in Conrad; 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 Ogden Reporter, and The Graphic-Advocate,
with offices in Lake City and Rockwell City. The company additionally
owns and operates newspapers in
southeast Iowa which are The NewsReview, in Sigourney, The Keota Eagle, Keota, and The Sun with offices
in New Sharon and Fremont. The
company also produces two weekly
political newspapers, the Conservative Chronicle and the Liberal Opinion Week. Additionally the company
prints several TMC shoppers, such
as The Hampton Chronicle’s Bonus
in Hampton, The Spectrum in Lake
City-Rockwell City, The Leader’s
Shoppers News Review in Garner,
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. Mid-America also has
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 Postville area.
“As a publisher of weekly newspapers and customized publishing
solutions for local markets, we feel
that Postville is a natural fit for our
company,” Harvey said. “We believe
strongly in the tradition of weekly
newspapers and are elated that Jason
has chosen us to carry the legacy of
the Herald in Postville.”
Harvey has been named the publisher of the newspaper although
day-to-day operations will be handled by the local staff of Nadine
Brock and Sharon Drahn. “We have
the greatest confidence in Nadine
and Sharon’s ability to serve the
people of Postville and Allamakee
County and are more than thrilled
to be a part of the local scene,” said
Harvey. The company has launched
a search for a full-time marketing
representative, effective immediately, to assist with the customers
served in the local market.
Matt Grohe, Board Chair and part
owner of Mid-America Publishing
further added that Mid-America’s
interest in Postville is due to its good
mix of businesses, dedicated local employers who have fostered a
diverse environment and a faithful
readership made up of long term residents and new arrivals to the community. “A local newspaper is only
as healthy as the region it serves and
it is encouraging to see the commitment to Postville the citizens and
business owners have shown over
the long term.” Grohe further added
that although the paper will retain
its local appeal, readers will notice
some immediate changes such as
expanded and varied content, special sections, more local photos and
greater use of color. He also added
that some additional printing services will be added in The Herald
offices but that the full suite of services Mid-America offers would be
available immediately and that any
interested parties could contact the
newspaper office for more information.
One change for readers and advertisers to note is that the newspaper’s billing and circulation will
be consolidated to the company’s
home office staff in Hampton effective immediately. The printing
of the newspaper will also move to
the Hampton facility rather than being printed in Calmar and a website
for the newspaper will be launched
within a few weeks. The newspaper
will remain in its current location at
101 N. Lawler St. and will also retain the same mailing address, email
addresses and phone number.

Unique projects earn Life Scouting status
Seth Mazoway was assisted by other Ackley Boy Scout Troop 1338 scouts on a campout to
build 8 wood duck houses. The houses will be put up this spring at Prairie Bridges Park.
Zachary Crain (on the left) with help from our Ackley Boy
Scout Troop 1338 Senior Patrol Leader, Gabe McGrath show the
basketball shoes that are available to our community students
needing a pair of basketball shoes. Zachary had over 40 hours of
service doing his Life project and will be continuing the project
for several years.
Life Scout Gabe McGrath of Our Savior’s Lutheran Church
of Ackley stands beside his Life Service project that involved
cleaning and painting 100 candle holders and building a 5 drawer, 2 door oak cabinet to store the candles in. There were over
100 hours of community service put into Gabe’s Life Service
Project. (photos and information submitted by Vern Miller of
Ackley a regular contributor for the area scouting programs.)
Ackley boys climb the scouting ladder
by Rick Patrie
News Editor
ACKLEY – Three of the Ackley’s
community’s boy scouts received
their Life Honor recently, recognizing some imaginative project work.
They did everything from clean a local churh’s stock of candle holders
to build duck houses, to collect basketball shoes for kids looking to participate in school sports – but unable
to afford all the esquipment needed.
Gabe McGrath and Seth Mazoway
completed their Board of Review for
Life Scout on September 21. Committee members of the Eldora Boy
Scout Troop 334 were on hand to ask
the scouts about the merit badges
that they completed as a Life Scout.
Some of the merit badges completed
were Citizenship in the Community, Communications and Physical
Fitness. There are 7 required merit
badges that needed to be completed
and 4 elective merit badges for a Life
Honor. Zachary Crain completed his
Board of Review with adults from
our Ackley Boy Scout Troop 1338
committee on October 26. Zachary
also completed the required merit
badges that were needed to complete
a Life Scout Honor.
On Sunday December 7 Our Saviors Lutheran Church held a dedica
tion service for Gabe McGrath’s Life
Scout Service project. Gabe wanted
to help his church in Ackley with a
project that would last a long time.
Along with Gabe’s parents Bob and
Tara McGrath and Pastor Kris Snyder they decided on a project.
Gabe’s Life Service Project involved refinishing 100 candleholders by cleaning the wax off the holders and then painting them all black.
The second part of Gabe’s project
was to make a cabinet to hold all of
the candles in. A drawing of what
the oak cabinet should look like was
drawn up by Gabe with the help of
Uncle Greg Chapman and Grandfather Larry Chapman. Gabe learned a
lot of basic and advanced carpentry
skills. He learned how to measure
oak boards to the 16th of an inch.
Sanding and squaring up the cabinet were also learned. Gabe learned
how to make kreg jigs and how to
use pocket screws to hold the cabinet together.
After the 5 drawer and 2-bottom
door cabinet was built than came
the staining and varnishing to complete the oak candle cabinet. Life
Scout Seth Mazoway, and Life Scout
Zachary Crain, along with his Dad
Bob and Mom Tara, also assisted
Gabe with some hours of service.
To receive a Life Rank in scouting
one of the requirements is to show
leadership in the community with
6 service hours. Gabe had over 100
hours of his time and his helpers in
completing the Oak cabinet.
Gabe became a Life Scout on September 21.
Zachary Crain wanted to help
the young people in our AGWSR
community with helping them get
shoes for the sport activities that
are offered. He organized several
shoe drop boxes around Ackley and
Wellsburg for shoes to be donated
and then had a shoe day on Saturday,
October 25 at the Ackley Library to
give out the shoes to students that
needed a pair of sport shoes. There
were over 50 pairs of basketball
shoes to choose from in all sizes,
and colors. Zachary is continuing
his shoe drop boxes for the Spring
Sports coming up and is planning to
do this ongoing project for several
years.
The Ackley World Journal has
regularly informed the community
when the next shoes will be ready to
pickup for the next sport. Zachary is
planning to put shoe drop boxes in
our community schools soon for his
next shoe drop donations.
Any student needing a pair of
shoes for basketball can still contact Zachary at the AGWSR Middle
School or talk to a coach on how to
get a pair of shoes. Watch your Ackley World Journal for the next time
we have a pick up day for the spring
sports. Life Scout Zachary Crain is
the son of Charles and Wendy Crain
of Ackley. Zachary became a Life
Scout on October 26.
Seth Mazoway became a life
Scout on September 21. Our Eldora
Boy Scout Troop 334 adult committee held a Board of Review for Seth.
He completed all the requirements
needed to become a Life Scout.
Seth completed 8 wood duck
houses for our Prairie Bridges Park
north of Ackley. Our Ackley Boy
Scout Troop 1338 had a Saturday
in September to build the houses.
Scouts from the Troop assisted Seth
in constructing the birdhouses. In
the spring our Scouts will be putting
them up before the nesting season
begins. Seth and the other scouts had
over 30 hours invested in this project.
Other adults that helped were Bob
McGrath Troop committee member
and Vernon Miller-Scoutmaster. The
wood was cut by the yardmen at the
Aplington Harken Lumber Company. Several bakes sales helped Seth
earn the money needed to build the
wood duck houses. Seth is the son of
Darcy Mazoway of Iowa Falls.

student of the month
(submitted by the staff of the
South Hardin High School as
part of its regular student of the
month honor project)
The SHHS faculty has selected
Kassidy Bunger as the Student of
the Month for December. She is
the daughter of Kendra and Keith
Bunger of Steamboat Rock. We
have watched Kassidy throughout
high school bring her quiet leadership to classes and extracurricular
events. She is willing to challenge
herself to be a better student and a
better athlete without complaining.
We know hard work is part of who
she is and for that we would like
to honor her as a model for others.
Congratulations Kassidy.

South Hardin boys coast
to 76-55 win over Cadets
by Scott Bierle
Sports Editor
ELDORA- An unanswered 16
points propelled the South Hardin
boys’ basketball team to a 76-55
romp over Iowa Falls-Alden here
Saturday in a non-conference contest.
The 16-0 run turned the contest
into no-contest as the Tigers’ lead
ballooned from six-points moments
into the second quarter to 35-13.
After the Cadets’ Weston Meyer
scored to start the second and drew
the visitors within 19-13, South Hardin scored the next seven baskets.
Eric Mulder fueled the spurt with
seven points, including a three-ball
along with a trey for David Shindelar and one bucket apiece for Jon
Weber, Hunter Edgerton and Glendon Mesch.
“Overall, it was a good game
coming out of the holiday break,”
stated South Hardin coach Adam
Weig.
“We pushed the ball well for the
layup and kicked it out for the threepointer. And defensively, that first
half giving up 17 points was good,”
added Weig.
The decisive run was part of a
22-6 second quarter that build a
comfortable 41-17 cushion at the
break.
The Tigers drilled nine threepoint goals with six for the Cadets.
Sam Shindelar netted five for the
winners while scoring a game-high
20 points. Mulder had three triples
and 19 points, and D. Shindelar one
long ball.
The host’s cushion was 20-points
at the two-minute mark of the second period on D. Shindelar’s threepointer and the advantage reached
30, 51-21 just 1:55 into the third on
a S. Shindelar trey.
Mesch was a third cager in double
figures for South Hardin at 13 points
with nine each for D. Shindelar and
Edgerton.
Iowa Falls-Alden ended the third
period on a 16-3 scoring spree and
outscored the hosts, 26-23 in an offensive-minded eight-minutes.
Jacob Sundholm’s 12 points led
the Cadets’ scoring column with nine
for Jagger Olson and Jace Ites, and
eight for Ben Steinfeldt and Meyer.
Sundholm and Ites sank three triples
each.
The win was the Tigers’ fifth
straight to stand 5-1 overall, while
