From the Editor

 

We’re certainly glad to be back home after a “semi-whirlwind” trip to Oklahoma.  That said, our trip was very eventful and enjoyable.  I’m going to touch on several topics, some of which will be addressed in much more detail in a later edition.

 

First of all I had 3 occasions to visit with Jerry Hayslip “on the porch” at Hannah House B&B in Hobart.  If you know Jerry and get a chance stop by and “sit a spell” with him.  He is so pleased to be back in Kiowa County and would so enjoy seeing you.  Jerry is well on his way to cutting his teeth as the new proprietor of Hannah House B & B.  On the side, with the “able bodied” help of his niece, Carolyn Martin, he’s trying to get his restaurant together.  From my vantage point looks like Jerry is the “idea guy” and Carolyn carries a big load as the “worker bee.”  Enough on this.  I just want to close this by saying, “Jerry, we certainly wish you the very best with your endeavors!”

 

Carolyn and I had the pleasure of visiting the Kiowa County Historical Museum.  This is one of the subjects you will see more on in the coming weeks.  The museum is very well done and has so many artifacts.  If you haven’t been by, you’ve missed a wonderful treat.  You can travel miles and never think about seeing the history that is present there.  You remember the TV commercial of the guy who was so impressed with a particular electric razor that he bought the company.  Well Carolyn and I were so impressed with the museum that we purchased a lifetime membership to the Kiowa County Historical Society.  Obviously, memberships and donations are all that keeps their work going.  Once you visit the museum, I’d put money that you will also consider a membership.

 

Lastly, we were so pleased to be able to attend the Cold Springs Reunion last Saturday in Roosevelt.  They had a very good turnout—around 30 people.  We saw many that we knew and met several new ones that we didn’t.  The discussion was very enjoyable as well as the meal served by J. R. Howard, his wife, and Betty Barnes.  The only negative of the day was that as Pat and Dee Moore were leaving he suffered a medical event of sorts necessitating the need to call the ambulance.  Now let me give you an evaluation of your local ambulance service and EMTs from an outsider.  I know that over the years there have been some “ups and downs” with the ambulance service.  However, let me say that my brother-in-law has used them several times over the years when his Father was still living and more recently with his Mother when she still lived out on the farm and reports nothing but the highest of praises for them.  In this instance last Saturday, from the time the ambulance was called, within 15 to 18 minutes they made their way from Mt. Park to Roosevelt with lights flashing and sirens screaming.  Unfortunately, I have no idea who the two were manning the unit—a young lady and a slightly older gentleman, but let me say these two were as professional and obviously as well trained as you would find in any large metropolitan area.  The equipment appeared to be brand new and I’m sure had the latest technology available.  After loading Pat inside, vitals were taken, I’m sure an IV started all the while communicating with the Emergency Room at Elkview Hospital in Hobart.  Within a few minutes they were on the road headed north.  I so hope that local residents realize how fortunate you are to have such good service in such a small community.  My hat’s off to the service and especially the two on duty Saturday.

PS  I talked with Pat’s sister-in-law, Cotton Mathis on Tuesday afternoon and she said that he had been moved from Hobart to Lawton for further evaluation.  Our thoughts and prayers are with Pat and Dee.

Remembering…

 

Wheat Harvest

 

As we visited in southwest Oklahoma last week, we drove past the many wheat fields ripe with a very abundant crop.  The golden wheat blowing in the Oklahoma wind brought back many memories of my days on the farm.  Wheat harvest was an important time for my family.  Now I won’t say that I remember all the way back to the beginning of this story but my remembrances do go way back.

 

My Dad and his brother bought the first John Deere self-propelled combine sold in the southwest district of Oklahoma in 1947.  I seem to recall that Dad talked of paying about $4500 for that combine.  Dad and a friend from Frederick took that combine and the friend’s tractor and pull-type combine on custom harvest into the Texas panhandle and on into Kansas that year.  This was the first of many years of custom harvest for our family.  I was about 16 months old that summer and Mother was pregnant with my brother.  Once Dad would get settled at a location, Mom would pack the car and the two of us would take off to be with Dad until he moved again.  No, I don’t remember this but have heard the story many times from both my parents.  My uncle went on custom harvest in 1948 but didn’t like it as well as my folks did.  So in 1949 Dad again went.  By now they had bought a trailer house and we all went.  Mom cooked for the hands while caring for Kenneth and me.  She tells the story of how amazed one of the families Dad cut for was that she ironed all of our clothes using the old iron heated on top of the gas cook stove.  That trailer house had gas lights as many farms still did not have electricity.  It had a true “ice box” which used a 50 pound block of ice to cool it.  We used that trailer through the summer of 1958.  After the 1949 harvest Dad didn’t go again until 1952.  But from 1952 through 1985, he did not miss a year of wheat harvest and began fall corn harvest in the late 1960’s.  So my summers were always spent on harvest. 

 

As I rode the combine with Kenneth last week, I thought back on the years.  What a change since my early remembrances.  Those first combines had 12 foot headers and no cabs thus no air conditioning.  I remember riding on the combine—usually in the grain bin.  The dust and chaff from the wheat blew in your eyes.  We always had bottles of eye wash to help the hands wash chaff from their eyes.  As time passed, the combines got bigger—larger headers and eventually cabs and air conditioners.  I remember Dad running behind the combine catching the straw as it came out of the back straw spreader so he could be sure he was thrashing all of the grain.  He would scratch in the ground to be sure he wasn’t throwing grain out.  He had to be sure he was harvesting every grain possible whether he was cutting his own or for a farmer somewhere between Oklahoma and Canada.  From mid to late May until late August, wheat harvest was the way of life for our family.

 

Now that combine I was riding in last week had a 36 foot header and computerized controls.  The cab was so quiet we could easily visit as we rode in the cool, clean comfort of the air conditioning.  Now, Kenneth was watching just as close as Dad ever did to be sure he was harvesting every grain possible but certainly with much different equipment.  Of course, the $4500 Dad paid for that first self-propel combine wouldn’t buy the tires for one today. 

 

As we drove down the road, we saw the tractor trailers now used to haul grain to the elevators.  What a difference!  I can remember in the mid 60’s when Dad got a new truck with a “large” bed and a drag axle how excited we were.  That is now a very small truck.  In fact, the grain carts that most use in the field to dump the combines “on the go” are bigger than that truck was.  I really don’t know how the custom harvesters of today manage to move all of the big equipment from one location to the next.  It certainly must take more than one trip to get everything from one location to the next.

 

Once the wheat was harvested, Dad and my uncle couldn’t get tractors and plows in the field fast enough to start turning the stubble.  I don’t know how many times those fields were plowed before time for wheat sewing in the fall but several.  Today, many of the farmers are using the “no till” method.  What a change—and for the better it appears.  As I understand it, no till land holds moisture much better.  Of course, you must spray for weeds.  The production certainly is good so it must work.

 

I will never forget my days on the farm and particularly the custom wheat harvest.  I am glad I was able to be in the field for a short time last week and certainly glad to see the wonderful crop that the farmers in southwest Oklahoma have this year.  After last year’s drought and crop failure, the farmers certainly needed a good crop.  I am afraid the vast majority of the American population do not realize the importance of the farmer in providing many of the necessities of life.

Thoughts from the Squirrel Lair

 

A Dog’s Purpose? (from a 6-year old)

 

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker.  The dog’s owners, Ron, and his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.

 

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer.  I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.

 

As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure.  They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.

 

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker’s family surrounded him.  Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.  Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.

 

The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion.  We sat together for a while after Belker’s death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.  Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, “I know why.”

 

Startled, we all turned to him.  What came out of his mouth next stunned me.  I’d never heard a more comforting explanation.  It has changed the way I try and live.

 

He said, “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life—like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?”  The six-year-old continued, “Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.”

 

Live simply.

 

Love generously.

 

Care deeply.

 

Speak kindly.

 

Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

 

When loved ones come home, always greet them.

 

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.

 

Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.

 

Take naps.

 

Stretch before rising.

 

Run, romp, and play daily.

 

Thrive on attention and let people touch you.

 

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

 

On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.

 

On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.

 

When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

 

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

 

Be loyal.

 

Never pretend to be something you’re not.

 

If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

 

When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.

 

There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it.  You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good.  So, love the people who treat you right.  Think good thoughts for the ones who don’t.  Life is too short to be anything but happy.  Falling down is part of LIFE…Getting back up is LIVING.

 

 

 

Alumni Website

 

We have renewed the account that Wanda Jackson had set up at the photo sharing website, picturetrail.com for the Roosevelt Alumni:  http://www.picturetrail.com/rooseveltalumni.  She had posted many pictures from past reunions, class panels, and old schools buildings along with write ups about them.  We thought you might find these interesting if you haven’t visited this site in the past.

 

 

 

Interesting Tidbits

 

Memorial Day

 

Next Monday we will observe Memorial Day.  As the day approached I decided to search for information on the origin of the holiday.  I found several interesting websites with information on the history of Memorial Day.  I have provided links to those sites for any who would like to read more about this important holiday.  cnm

 

Three years after the Civil War Maj. Gen. John A. Logan declared that the graves of the war dead should be decorated with flowers on May 30 and named Decoration Day.  It is believed that this day was chosen because flowers would be in bloom across the country.  Celebrations were held throughout the country.  After World War I the day was expanded to honor those who have died in all American wars.  In 1971 Congress declared it a national holiday and placed it on the last Monday in May.

 

We should all take time to remember those who have fought and given their lives for the freedom of our great country.  Without the service of these men and women, America would not be what it is today.

Joye Ann Johnson Celebrates Birthday

 

Happy Birthday, Mom!!

 

Joye Ann Johnson is wonderful mom, grandmother and great grandmother!  Not to mention sister, aunt, cousin and friend.  She has touched many lives in her role as nurse, Sunday School teacher, English as a Second language teacher, artist, writer and encourager.  Her love for the Lord is immense.  Every morning she prays for many, many people and their needs.  My favorite story about her prayers are when she prayed for Coleen who wanted a baby so much but was having a difficult time getting pregnant.  Mom prayed and soon Colleen gave birth to a baby boy...OU kicker Jimmy Stevens!  Mom also prayed for a former co-worker and her desire to have kids...after the couple was blessed with several children, her co-worker laughed with mom and asked her to please quit praying about this need.  Mom has prayed for me and I've seen many answered prayers over the years. Thank you, Mom!!  I couldn't have made it without my mom.  She was such a blessing to me when I was raising my two sons as a single mother.  Currently, she is a tremendous blessing to her neighbors and friends where she lives.  She encourages daily with her words and her pretty smile. She is a true blessing!!!  Happy Birthday, Mom!!!!!   Leann Overstake

 

Editor’s note:  Leann, this editor too has seen the benefits of your Mother’s prayers.  Following is an excerpt from an email that she sent to us last November:  “I was working in the drugstore and Mike, you and your Mother were in and she told me you were going to an eye doctor in Oklahoma City and I began praying for you. Later she thanked me for the great outcome and so now I say Thank You to God for what you have done with His gifts. Sincerely, Joye Wolfe Johnson.”

Driver’s License

 

A friend of a friend of mine was sitting on a lawn sunning and reading when he was startled by a fairly late model car crashing through a hedge and coming to rest on his lawn.

 

He helped the elderly driver out and sat him on a lawn chair.  “My goodness,” he exclaimed, “you are quite old to be driving!”

 

“Maybe,” he replied, “But I am 96 so I don’t need a license anymore.  The last time I went to my doctor he examined me and asked if I had a driving license.  I told him yes and handed it to him.  He took scissors out of a drawer, cut the license into pieces and threw them in the wastebasket.  ‘You won’t be needing this anymore,’ he said.”

 

“So I thanked him and left.”

Mike and Carolyn,

Another wonderful newsletter today!  I'm convicted that I don't write each week to thank you.  However, if there's not time to respond immediately, it's easy to procrastinate, which usually ends up not responding at all.  Please forgive me!  We are just too accustomed to clicking the "like" icon.  Every week I'm constantly wanting to click "like" after reading each portion.

Carolyn, so sorry your wonderful articles on Mother's Day and reminiscing about your mother, etc. didn't get the response that it deserved.  Believe me, everyone enjoyed them and appreciate your time researching and writing them.  (I still haven't responded to your article on wash day and hanging out clothes.  Always intended to, just didn't have the time.  It, obviously, hit a special note in many because of those that did write their own remembrances.)

Although we are very happy living in beautiful southeast Oklahoma, I'm always a little tempted to be jealous of those who are still in Kiowa County and see each other regularly.  Because of our circumstances, it's like we're a world away.  Don and I said yesterday it sure would be fun to go watch the wheat harvest.  That said, wheat harvest is a lot different than when we farmed there.  But, it still brings nostalgic feelings just thinking about it.  I took 2 meals a day to be eaten in the field -- lunch meal like a big Sunday dinner; the other, sandwiches made with homemade bread and either home cooked pot roast sandwiches or home cooked stewed chicken salad sandwiches.  We had the big meal at lunch because I hauled wheat the rest of the day.  That time of the year was very busy and taxing on the body; but, an exciting time that we always enjoyed.

Enjoy your time in Oklahoma.

Thanks again for all your hard work!

Mike, I can remember when the German POWs dug the cistern on our farm.  I think I was 5 years old at the time and much impressed by the guards carrying rifles that were guarding them.

Many thanks for writing such a nice article about Hanna House and me.  Like always enjoy seeing you and Carolyn.  It doesn't matter if we visit for hours or just a few minutes, I welcome the visit.  So God bless you both and have a safe trip back home Sunday.

I enjoy reading the Newsletter and have thought before about thanking you both.  My brother, Don Ellis, lives west of Roosevelt but when I attended Con. 8 we lived near the Twin Mountains.  My late husband, Otto Carley, and I graduated from Mt. Park H.S. and Carolyn’s mother taught him some years before I met him.  I have enjoyed visiting with Mrs. Niebruegge at the school Reunions.

 

Don would be too young to remember that Dad had German POW’s pull cotton.  Our fall school year began in August so they could dismiss a few weeks in the fall for cotton harvest.  The one thing I remember most was the prisoners had Hershey bars and chewing gum and both were rare for us to find in the stores at that time.  I guess they had a type of PX at the camp.

 

You mentioned going to the Kiowa County museum.  I have enjoyed the history there, too.  My maternal granddad came to their farm 20 miles south of Hobart in 1901, grandmother joined him two years later, and my mother was born there before statehood. 

 

I hope you will have time to visit the General Franks museum before returning home.  Hobart is having their 4th annual Celebration of Freedom Memorial Day weekend and I plan to go again.  If you would like any more information about either, please let me know.

 

Thanks again for all the news,

Mike & Carolyn, 

 

Thank you so much for a great newsletter. I enjoy reading them. 

 

In regard to the German POW issue - I have a story from the first time we lived in Germany in 1973 when my husband was a Captain.  We went out to a nice German restaurant for dinner and our active 3 year old kept turning around in her seat.  After several incidents I was embarrassed as a Mother and I turned around to apologize to the group behind us.  It was 2 German couples, probably in their 60s.  When I attempted to apologize, one of the gentlemen spoke to me in English saying "No need to apologize - We love Americans."  As we talked a little while I found that he had learned his English in a POW camp in the US during WWII.  And he learned his profession while a POW.  He worked in a bakery (I don't remember where) and he now owned a bakery in Germany.  We stayed in touch while we lived in their town and visited in their home several times.  They were both lovely couples and treated us well.  The man remembered being treated well by Americans when he was a POW.  I'm sure the POWs who were at Hobart also told very good stories about the people of Kiowa County when they returned to Germany.

Political Fodder

 

Only In America

 

Only in America could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000 a plate campaign fund raising event.

 

Only in America could we have had the two people most responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner, the head of the Treasury Department and Charles Rangel who once ran the Ways and Means Committee, BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.

Only in America can we have terrorists kill people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.

Only in America would we make people who want to legally become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege while we discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just become American citizens.

Only in America could the people who believe in balancing the budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as "extremists."

Only in America could you need to present a driver's license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.

Only in America could people demand the government investigate whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. oil company (Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).

Only in America could the government collect more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a trillion dollars more than it has per year for total spending of $7 million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.

Only in America could the rich people who pay 86% of all income taxes be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any income taxes at all.
