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. For more details contact us by phone (877) 945-2272, by email [email protected] or on the web at www.abaretirement.com You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the investment options carefully before investing.

This, my final president’s letter, is dedicated to all Iowa lawyers who set the stage for civility, professionalism and ethical behavior among clients, which in turn contributes to the delivery of justice and respect for the rule of law. As I reflect on the year since my investiture on June 17, 2008 as your 122nd president, I am thankful for your many contributions of time, talent and gifts in making the year successful. Although this has been an extraordinarily challenging year, you have all answered the call of service. Highlights of Dan’s presidential year through April 30 include: (left center) being invested in the office of president by former law school classmate and cur- rent Iowa Supreme Court Chief Justice Marsha Ternus during the awards banquet June 17, 2008; (top left) presenting the championship trophy to the state champion high school mock trial team this past March; (top right) providing words of wisdom to the newly admitted lawyers at the swearing-in ceremony last September; (right middle) meeting with Des Moines Register edi- torial writers Carol Hunter and Rox Laird last February; (bottom) standing with members of his firm following the awards banquet last June when he was invested as ISBA’s 122nd president.

    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.
