2008 Falls History Project: Norman and Margie Johnson Interviewer: Max Hart November 13, 2007 “““MEET“MEET ME AT THE FAIR!FAIR!”””” THE JACKSON COUNTY FAIR Falls History Project 2008 1 THE FALLS HISTORY PROJECT INTRODUCTION How do we actively engage students in the study of history? This is the ongoing challenge that history teachers must face at the secondary level. Historian David Blight of Amherst College suggests that “all historical experience . must be imagined before it can be understood.” One way to engage students and their imaginations more fully is to connect them to the actual process of “doing” history and relate that process to an increased understanding of their local environment. Indeed, the story of Black River Falls and the surrounding area provides a rich and diverse landscape for historical research. OVERVIEW As a symbolic beginning for this project in 2000, we established a permanent display at BRFHS related to Corporal Mitchell Red Cloud, Jr., a graduate who received the Medal of Honor for heroism in the Korean War. His life story offers a compelling example of the power of memory in our community. The Falls History Project research was initiated during the 2001-02 school year with the intention of connecting our students more authentically to the history of our region. From the start our hope has been that the project would involve a number of teachers and students. We introduce our students to the project through various classes within our department and much of the work involves the gathering of oral history. Our 2008 project is the 7th in the series. COMPONENTS OF THE PROJECT ORAL HISTORY WORK Students who are enrolled in any of our history courses will have the opportunity to become involved in oral history work. The focus of the interviews will depend on the particular aspect of local history that we are dealing with at the time. Our first efforts will be aimed at compiling research related to veterans of the Second World War and the Korean Conflict. We will be working with students on skills related to interviewing, including videotaping and transcribing. RESEARCHING LOCAL DOCUMENTARY SOURCES Students will be introduced to the sources of history available at the “History Room” of the BRF Public Library, particularly the microfilm archives of local newspapers. In addition, students with a special interest in HoChunk history will be introduced to the archives of the Historic Preservation and Cultural Resources of the HoChunk Nation located at the Executive Building of the tribe. INDEPENDENT STUDY OFFERING FOR SENIORS Since 2001-02 we have had several interns who work exclusively on the project during their senior year. Interns are advanced history students who design a project related to local history and carry it out under the guidance of the FHP advisor. INTERNSHIPS/VOLUNTEER WORK We have spoken with Mary Lent and Mary Woods at the Public Library concerning the possibility of summer internships or volunteer work for students at the History Room. We envision this as a possibility for students who may be contemplating studying history beyond high school and have a special interest in learning more about the actual work of historians. We will also be exploring the possibility of working with the Jackson County Historical Society as we proceed with the project. DEVELOPING A PERMANENT ARCHIVE AT BRFHS Beginning in 2002-03, we established a permanent archive at BRFHS related to the Falls History Project. It is located in the LMC and houses the various research that is compiled through the project. FINAL THOUGHTS The Falls History Project offers great potential for furthering history education in our school. We believe that it provides an excellent opportunity for developing connections between the community and the school related to local history. Paul S Rykken/ Falls History Project Advisor May 2008 2 FALLS HISTORY PROJECT 2008 IN OUR 2008 PROJECT WE ARE TAKING A CLOSER LOOK AT THE JACKSON COUNTY FAIR. WE HAVE NOT HIGHLIGHTED THE RURAL ASPECT OF OUR LOCAL HISTORY WITH ANY DEPTH, EXCEPT WHEN WE EXAMINED BLACK RIVER FALLS IN THE 1930s. COUNTY FAIRS PLAY AN INTEGRAL ROLE IN RURAL LIFE AND OUR FOCUS HERE WAS TO LISTEN TO THE VOICES OF PEOPLE WHO HAD A SPECIAL CONNECTION TO THE FAIR AND THE RURAL LIFE OF OUR REGION. Max Hart was our 2007-08 intern. Max established himself as an outstanding social studies student throughout his four years at BRFHS. He completed AP US History in his junior year and was involved in many of our electives since his sophomore year as well as the Student Senate. Max also was very active in the FFA organization and served as President during his senior year. He will be attending UW-River Falls in the fall of 2008 and plans to pursue a degree in an Agriculture-related field. THIS YEAR’S INTERVIEWEES Norman and Margie Johnson: Interviewed November 13, 2007 Lillian Hart: Interviewed November 19, 2007 Bob and Jeannine Capaul: Interviewed December 12, 2007 Jerome Laufenberg: Interviewed January 10, 2008 THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO OUR PROJECT! 3 INTRODUCTION TO THE 2007-08 FALLS HISTORY PROJECT County Fairs conjure up images of cattle barns, rides on the midway, exhibits, and crowds of people seeing each other after a long summer interruption. Historically in Wisconsin, fairs encouraged use of the latest farming methods, introduced improved breeds of livestock, and promoted local trade and manufacturers. In addition, particularly in the early years, fairs provided an essential social event that proved to be a wonderful antidote to the rural isolation of the upper Midwestern farms. Due to its position as the county seat, Black River Falls was the logical site for hosting the Jackson County Fair. Records of the fair go back well over 150 years and generations of county residents have marked their calendars with “fair week” each summer. Though describing rural Kansas fairs in the 19 th century, the following statement from the Kansas Historical Society captures the essence of the place of county fairs in rural communities very well: Nineteenth century county fairs, by promoting improved agriculture, helping create a sense of community, and encouraging settlement of the region, reflected major concerns of the people that attended. Fairs, in a sense, were celebrations of another year of progress. Because city and rural residents depended on the agricultural economy, fairs became important annual events whose traditions are still evident in the county fairs of today (Kansas State Historical Society Web Page). REFLECTIONS FROM MAX HART, 2007-08 INTERN This year I had the honor of being the intern for the Falls History Project. I had the choice to do research on any topic. Because of my interest in agriculture and my life-long connection to the Fair, I decided on this research. On reason this interested me is that this may be the last year the current buildings will be standing at the fairgrounds. I thought it would be good to get some history out of the buildings before they are torn down. I would like to dedicate this project to all of the wonderful volunteers, exhibitors, fairgoers, and anyone else that has helped make the Jackson County Fair the best it could ever be. I would like to especially thank Norman and Margie Johnson, Bob and Jeannine Capaul, Lillian Hart, and Jerome Laufenberg for sharing their stories with me. I would also like to thank Mr. Rykken for helping me with my project and Mary Woods for helping me do some preliminary research on the fair down at the History Room at the Black River Falls Public Library. I hope you enjoy the project! 4 2008 Falls History Project: Bob and Jeannine Capual Interviewer: Max Hart December 12, 2007 “I guess that’s where I got my start in showing cattle. I started at the small fair and the years go by and your stuff gets better and you think you can go to bigger shows.” - Bob Capaul Max: It’s December 12, 2007. It’s Wednesday afternoon at about 3:30 P.M. I’m interviewing Bob and Jeannine Capaul for the Jackson County Fair for my Black River Falls History project. And Jeannine would you please state you name, your age and the place you were born. Jeannine: I’m Jeannine Capaul. I was born in Eau Claire, Wisconsin and I’m 72. Max: Ok. Then your name, age, and place you were born. Bob: I’m Robert Capaul. I’m 82 and I was born on the farm where we live. Max: Ok. And that’s in Alma Center, Wisconsin? Bob: Right. Max: All right I guess I’ll start off the interview with what was the first year you showed at the Jackson County Fair? Bob: 1935, my first year in 4-H. Max: How about you Jeannine, did you show anything at the Jackson County Fair? Jeannine: Not until the kids were out of 4-H and married and he retired so then I started showing crocheting and that. Otherwise I was behind the scenes help. Max: Ok. I read that in one of the articles here how you would always stay home and milk cows while Bob would go to the fair with the kids. Jeannine: That’s right. Max: I was looking at that picture. Bob: See what good of shape that barn was in back in 35. Max: I really like this picture right here with all the old cars, you really get the year of that. Bob: That was when I was ten years old. Max: Ok. So you showed knitting and crocheting at the fair? Jeannine: Right I do. Max: Did you show any animals? Bob with his cow in front of the Junior Dairy barn 5 Jeannine: Only if I had to help out in a group showing but otherwise I didn’t show anything.

  • POSSUM SONG Prego Reversion 2
    POSSUM SONG Written by Isaac Adamson Lee Stobby Entertainment 323-546-9290 EXT. RURAL HIGHWAY - NIGHT Moonlight and shadows. A POSSUM waddles down the middle of the road. He stops, sensing danger. Looks back over his shoulder. Pinpricks of light emerge in the distance behind him. Headlights. They grow closer, bigger. The lights belong to a massive, gleaming black semi-truck. It bears down on the possum, coming right at him with demonic, otherworldly speed. Blinded by the headlights, rattled by deafening ROAR of the the semi, the possum freezes. It’s too late to flee. The possum’s lips curl back. His eyes close. His body grows rigid. He loses consciousness, falls over just as... The truck THUNDERS over him, tires racing by on either side of his body, undercarriage passing overhead, the sound like a chorus of SCREAMING dead animal souls... ...and then the truck continues past him and is gone. DAY The possum lies rigor mortis stiff in the middle of the road, eyes squeezed closed, mouth a sharp-toothed rictus. Noxious liquid the color of anti-freeze is pooled on the asphalt beneath his anus. Its ears twitch. Its back legs kick. It opens its eyes and springs to its feet, very much alive. We follow the possum as it saunters away from the road and cuts into a mossy forest. INT. TV STUDIO - BACKSTAGE HALLWAY - DAY We follow country star EDDIE VESCO (32) -- rangy, blue-eyed, a tall glass of water -- as a starstruck PRODUCTION ASSISTANT (20s, female) escorts him down a backstage hallway.
