  • The Blue Book of Iowa Women
    REYNOLD?^ WicjoRic/s^L GENEALOGY COLLECTION ^s.oia^Boo,?«T&^^,, 'i^'')>< 'S/;SV 1G6715G To your mother, and to my own of blessed memory, to whom we owe all that we are and to whose inspiration we are indebted for all we have tried to do, this book is dedicated. Press of the Missouri Printing and Publishing Company, Mexico. Mo. PREFACE STATE in the union has produced a bet- ter or a higher type of womanhood than Iowa. From pioneer days until the pres- ent they have had a very helpful interest in the advancement of education, of the arts, of literature, of religious and moral training, in the great work of philanthropy and of social service in all of its phases. Some of them have been women of unusual talent and have a national reputation, and some have a world-wide reputation. To record the achievements of these exceptional women, and to make a permanent record of the lives and work of the women who within the State and in their own commu- nities have given their service to the common good is the object of this book. It is not claimed that all the women deserving recognition are included in these pages, no book would be large enough to contain them all. The labor involved in collecting and compiling this history has been far beyond our expectation, yet if we have added to the written history of our state, or if the lives herein recorded prove an inspiration to others, it will be compensation for all the labor it has cost.

  • Blue Ribbon Foundation
    BIOWAlue STATE FAIR Foundation 20/20 Ribbon his year is going to be perfect! How do I know? I have 20/20 vision! All joking aside, let’s talk about a simple vision that grew into a T conceptV and createdision a mission. The Iowa State Fair began in 1854 as an event where farmers, manufacturers and homemakers would bring together their products in “amicable rivalry.” What started out as livestock judging and a showcase of crops slowly developed into a must-attend experience brimming with tradition. Drew Sniezek Communications Manager Many buildings on the Iowa State Fairgrounds were constructed before 1920. Because they were unheated, Iowa’s freeze-thaw cycle took its toll. By the late 1970s, loose mortar, sagging roofs, rotting windows and unsafe wiring were robbing the Fairgrounds of its dignity. Although the Fair was operating in the black, neither profits nor legislative appropriations were enough to curtail the crumbling. Despite the Fairgrounds being listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the prospect of a gradual shutdown of the unsafe facility loomed. A simple vision In 1993, the Iowa State Fair Board created the Blue Ribbon Foundation. The that grew into Foundation’s charge was to conduct a major capital campaign for renovation a concept and and preservation of the Fairgrounds – with a vision for the future. created a mission. Fast-forward 27 years and the Blue Ribbon Foundation continues to create new programs to offer Fairgoers ways to support various improvement projects across the Fairgrounds. This year is no exception. Progress continues on the renovation of the Bruce L.

June 24 - 26, 2009 Marriott · Des Moines, Iowa It is more important than ever to understand your 401(k) fees. 401(k) fees can be assessed as explicit out-of-pocket expenses or charged as a percentage of assets. These expenses can be charged to either the sponsoring law firm or the plan’s participants. Often they are assessed both ways, in some combination to the firm and its participants. Unique 401(k) Plans HOW IS THE ABA RETIREMENT FUNDS PROGRAM DIFFERENT FROM for Law Firms OTHER PROVIDERS? TWO REASONS: 1. The ABA Retirement Funds program was created by a not- for-profit organization within the ABA to provide a member benefit, not generate revenue for the ABA. 2. The ABA Retirement Funds program achieves the necessary economies of scale with over $3 billion invested to eliminate all explicit fees for firms, and provide investments for participants with low asset based fees. Let the ABA Retirement Funds program provide you with a cost comparison so you can better understand your direct 401(k) fees, and see how we can help you to provide an affordable 401(k), without sacrificing service, to your firm.

    From the Des Moines Women’s Club Cookbook Centennial Edition, 1885-1985 The Des Moines Women's Club Remembers One Hundred Years 1885-1985 In 1885, Eive indomitable, foresighted women, their bustles in place, met in the old Plymouth Congregational Church, Fifth and Grand Avenue, to form what is now the Des Moines Women's Club. At that time, the population of Des Moines was 22,000, horses and buggies were the mode of conveyance, and streets were dusty, dirty and deep in mud in the wet seasons. The club met in various places in the city, Central Christian Church, K.P. and Good Templar’s Halls, Yeoman Hall, Savery Hotel, Women's Exchange and Y.M.C.A. At the latter they had the use of the stairs, all of the 5th loor, the elevator and the rest rooms. In 1888, a rule was made requiring 25 cents for absenteeism. Horses and buggies got stuck in the mud. The attendance, however, did become better after the 25-cent ine. The club grew to 22 members and these 22 would go down in history as charter members and be recognized as Iowa's largest women's club. Dues were $1.00 annually and $10.00 for a life membership. In order to obtain dishes and silver necessary for carrying out social life, each lady was asked to give 1 cup, 1 plate, and 1 spoon. In October 1893, the chairman of the Property Committee made the following report: 40 cups 2 dishpans 1 dipper 1 broom 51 plates 1 tea kettle 1 tea caddy 2 large chairs 4 saucers 1 pail 1 mop handle 1 large table In 1894, the records state there were 136 members, 96 present and there were 12 late.
