$\RXQJER\KXJJHGKLVSDWHUQDOJUDQGPRWKHUZKHQVKHDUULYHGIRUDYLVLWDQGVDLG´,·P sure glad that you are here, because now momma can do that trick she talks about!” “What trick is that? asked the grandmother. ´6KH·VEHHQWHOOLQJGDGG\WKDWLI\RXFRPHKHUHVKH·OOFOLPEWKHZDOOVµ Dear Irons-Dublin-Wellston Community,
I’m sure by now everyone has heard about the tragic loss of the Dublin General Store. Although Gregg is determined to rebuild it will be several months before things are up and running again. The insurance he carries on the store will cover the wages and insurance for all his workers. But there is also concern for many of the area residents who shop there quite often because they walk to the store and have to carry home their items. Traveling to Manistee for groceries is out of the question. They may not have gas money to get there and also buy food. Some of them just don’t have transportation..
The Irons Food Pantry could alleviate some of this stress if we could expand our services to more than the 14 families that we are presently helping. We are a ”Feeding America” Food Pantry and are able to purchase a good variety of foods at a very reduced price. So instead of having a food drive we are planning a Soup Supper as a fund raiser. The area churches have joined together to provide the evening meal and we are hoping that local businesses and families will come together to share a meal and make a donations to help purchase more food for the food pantry through the “Feeding America” program.
The Simply Soup Supper is planned for Saturday evening September 21,from 6:00-7:30 pm at the Irons Bible Church Fellowship Hall, 5713 W. Jeffers at 10 ½ Mile Rd. in Irons. Pastor Steve and his church family will host the event with financial support for the evening meal coming from other local churches. When you come to the supper your donations will help expand the local food pantry
The goodwill we all feel toward the Fischer Family in general will continue and expand with supportive ideas like this one of expanding the “Feeding America” food pantry at the Irons Seventh-day Adventist Church and another project generated by the First Church of Wellston that has planned a drive/share to help take any residents who regularly shop at the Dublin General, because its within walking distance, into Manistee to shop. You might like to sign up as a driver to help this project when you come to the Soup Supper.
Thank you for your help in coming together to support a family that has been so generous to our communities for many, many years. Save the date September 21 from 6:00 -7:30 at the Irons Bible Church, 5713 W. Jeffers, at 10 ½ Mile Rd.

Stephanie Kehrer, Manager Richard C. Jensen, Manager oakgrovefh.com Ludington (231) 845-9898 Manistee (231) 723-1117 Wily Facts About Coyotes NW Conservatives Alliance & The Lake County Republicans 1. COYOTES ARE RESOURCEFUL. meets 1st Thursday of the month The coyote’s adaptable nature has allowed it to thrive in an era when Pompeii Pizza downtown Baldwin 6 PM many species have dwindled. It mainly eats small mammals like rodents Free Pizza & Potluck and rabbits, but it has no trouble making a meal of fruit, grass, insects, Concerned Citizens Meet To carrion, or garbage when it has to. It’s also resourceful: The coyote can Help Surrounding Areas build a den from scratch, but it's also been known to take over and Call Joan (231) 266-5102 enlarge burrows dug by smaller animals like badgers.
2. COYOTES STAR IN MANY NATIVE AMERICAN STORIES. The coyote’s resourcefulness was first observed by Native Americans. Many tribes across the continent cast the coyote as a central character in their folktales and tell stories of his cunning and perseverance. T hough he's often characterized as a trickster, Coyote isn’t necessarily a villain. In some myths, Coyote’s ability to make the most of his circumstances and do whatever it takes to succeed is seen as a reflection of humankind’s own survival instincts.
3. HOWLS AREN'T THE ONLY SOUNDS COYOTES MAKE. While the howl is definitely the most recognizable sound they make, coyotes have a wide range of vocalizations in their arsenal. There’s a total of 11 distinct noises the animals use to communicate. Outside of howls used for long-range contact, sounds are either categorized as greetings (whines and yelps) or agnostic (warning barks and alarm vocalizations).
4. COYOTES ARE SOLITARY ANIMALS. Coyotes are much less likely to hunt in packs than their larger wolf relatives. When going after small mammals, they usually prefer working solo. They make an exception when pursuing larger prey like deer; in such cases, several coyotes will get together and take turns chasing the deer until it gets too tired to run.
5. MARK TWAIN DIDN’T PAINT COYOTES IN THE BEST LIGHT. In his 1872 book Roughing It, Mark Twain recounts his time in the Wild West. He spends part of the book describing a coyote he saw in his travels, and his harsh depiction of the animal may have contributed to its unsavory reputation today. He characterizes it as a "long, slim, sick and sorry-looking skeleton” in one passage and later calls it "a living, breathing allegory of Want. He is always hungry … He is always poor, out of luck and friendless.” Chuck Jones, the animation director behind many Looney Tunes characters, said he used Twain’s writing as inspiration when creating Wile E. Coyote. continued on page 7 ALL STAR HOLE HEARTED MY ALL SOMEDAY ALWAYS I WISH NEVER EVER SUMMERTIME BLACK VELVET IESHA ONLY YOU TENNESSEE CARNIVAL INVISIBLE MAN PUSH THA CROSSROADS COME UNDONE JOYRIDE RHYTHM NATION THE ONE DO ANYTHING JUMP ROAM TOM'S DINER EVERY HEARTBEAT LITHIUM ROMANTIC TORN FREAK ME LOSER RUN AWAY VOGUE GLYCERINE MACARENA RUSH RUSH WICKED GAME HAZARD MMMBOP SCAR TISSUE WONDER HEARTBREAKER MOVE THIS SENSITIVITY YOU LEARN HEY LOVER MR.

But while the Looney Tunes “For all your electrical needs” roadrunner is the faster of the Dave March: Owner/Master Electrician two, coyotes outpace the birds in Cell: (231) 425-0824 real life. Roadrunners move at 15 Business: (231) 845-1938 to 20 mph, and coyotes can run twice as fast, reaching speeds up [email protected] to 40 mph.
7. COYOTES CAN JUMP GREAT DISTANCES. In addition to being fast runners, coyotes are also excellent jumpers. When jumping horizontally they can clear distances up to 13 feet. They can also jump high in the air, which is bad news for any pet owners hoping their backyard fence will keep their animals safe from the predators.
8. URBAN COYOTES ARE ON THE RISE. Coyotes are often portrayed as wandering through empty deserts, but it’s becoming more common to see them padding down busy urban streets. Cities are appealing habitats for coyotes: The young forests that grow around metro areas attract the same small animals the predators love to eat, and with fewer wolves around thanks to human development, coyotes can dominate new territory without competition. Many consider them a nuisance, but they aren’t going anywhere: When researchers from Utah State University surveyed 105 urban areas in America in 2016, they found that 96 of them have coyote populations. continued on page 8 8 CAMPING/LODGING/OUTDOORS/SPORTS continued from page 7
9. EASTERN COYOTES ARE HYBRIDS. Human development in North America has driven gray wolf populations toward extinction, but the species's downfall has turned into a success story for coyotes. When many ecosystems lost their apex predators, coyotes stepped in to fill the role. Today they extend beyond their original range in the West all the way to Grillin Time Deer Processing Visa/MC the East Coast. 100% Boneless Processing Accepted But coyotes in the east aren’t Vacuum Packing included. quite the same animals you’d Quick Turn Around see in the California desert.

Even after years of interbreeding, these eastern coyotes don’t constitute a new species—so “coywolves” aren’t really a thing.
10. SCIENTISTS ARE STUDYING COYOTE POOP. As coyotes move into major cities, scientists are looking for new ways to study the species’s impact. One method involves collecting the poop they leave behind. By looking at coyote droppings, researchers can gain a better understanding of the animal’s diet in urban environments and even analyze its DNA. Coyote scat-collecting programs have been implemented in both New York City and Los Angeles.
A man was getting his hair cut at a neighbor- hood barber shop, and he asked the barber when would be the best time to bring in his two-year-old son. Without hesitation, the barber answered, "When he's four."

The word pizza dates back over a thousand years; it was first mentioned in a Latin text written in southern Italy in 997 CE.
2. In 1835, Alexandre Dumas, author of The Three Musketeers, traveled to Naples, where he observed that the Neapolitan poor ate nothing but watermelon during the summer and pizza during the winter.
3. The first pizza place in America was Lombardi’s in New York City. Originally opened as a grocery store, Lombardi’s started selling pizza in 1905.
4. During the first few decades of the 20th century, pizza was predominantly eaten and sold by working class Italian immigrants ...
5. … But after World War II, American GIs came home from Italy with a craving for pizza, bringing the food to a broader consumer base for the first time.
6. The first American cities to start selling pizza were New York; Boston; New Haven, Connecticut; and Trenton, New Jersey. All four of these cities had an influx of Southern Italian immigrants around the turn of the century.
7. At first, pizzas were sold exclusively by the pie. But in 1933, Patsy Lancieri (of Patsy's Pizzeria in New York City) started selling pizza by the slice—a trend that was quickly picked up by other pizzerias.
8. Humans aren’t the only ones who love the taste of pizza: There’s even a mini pizza for dogs called the “Heaven Scent Pizza” made of flour, carrots, celery, and parmesan cheese.
9. The first-known Chicago deep dish pizzas were created in 1943 by the restaurant that later became the Pizzeria Uno chain.
10. Domino’s was founded in 1960. The restaurant chain’s founder, Tom Monaghan, is one of three people in the world who hold an advanced degree in "Pizza-ology” from the “Domino’s College of Pizza- ology”—a business management program he founded in the 1980s.
11. Domino’s dropped its “30 minutes or less” guarantee in 1993 after a series of lawsuits accused the company of promoting unsafe driving. continued on page 18

According to legend, the “Pizza Margherita” takes its name from Queen Margherita of Savoy who, in 1889, sampled three pizza flavors made by master pizza chef Raffaele Esposito and expressed a preference for the version topped with tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, and designed to resemble the Italian flag. Nice story—and while the Queen did eat Esposito's pizza, there's no evidence of what was on the menu, and a lot of skepticism that this was mostly a marketing scheme concocted (complete with forged historical documents!) to boost business.

A cheerful truck driver pulled up at a roadside cafe in the middle of the night for a dinner stop. Halfway through his meal, three wild-looking motorcyclists roared up--bearded, leath- er-jacketed, filthy. For no reason at all, they selected the truck driver as a target. One poured pepper over his head, another stole his apple pie, the third deliberately tipped his coffee over. The truck driver never said one word, just stood up, paid his check, and left. "That truck driver sure ain't much of a fighter," sneered one of the bikers. The girl behind the counter, peering out into the night, added, "He doesn't seem to be much of a truck driver, either. He just ran over three motorcycles."
A young man at this construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone based on his strength. He especially made fun of one of the older workmen.
