Gamble Chief Judge of the Fifth Judicial District of Iowa Polk County Courthouse 500 Mulberry St. Des Moines, IA 50309 Phone (515) 286-3853 1 THE POLK COUNTY COURTHOUSE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE Arthur E. Gamble Chief Judge of the Fifth Judicial District of Iowa November 18, 2016 A. Introduction. “Our liberties we prize and our rights we will maintain.” This familiar motto is inscribed on the Great Seal and State flag of Iowa. In the State of Iowa and in the County of Polk, our rights and liberties as freedom loving Americans are maintained and preserved in our county courthouse. In Iowa and throughout the United States, the courthouse is the seat of county government and the place of holding court in the county. It sits prominently in the town center where the social, economic, and political values of the county converge. The courthouse is the place where citizens participate directly in their government through their interaction with the Iowa Judicial Branch. The courthouse is the transcendent symbol of liberty and democracy in the county, in the state and in our country. The courthouse is the epicenter of truth and justice in the community. It is the place where civil disputes between citizens are resolved, children are protected from abuse, crime victims are vindicated and the constitutional rights of the accused are maintained. Ultimately, the courthouse stands as an anchor of stability, dignity and ceremony for the people of the county.

  • Cedar Rapids, Iowa
    62 American City Flags CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA Population Rank: U.S... # 180 Iowa...... # 2 Proportions: 3:5 (usage) Adopted: 8 October 1962 (official status uncertain) DESIGN: The field of the flag of Cedar Rapids is white. Across ap- proximately the central third of the field horizontally, extending seven- eighths of the flag’s length, is a symbolic city skyline in blue. Beginning at the hoist side is a historic mill, separated from the church with a steeple that follows it by three corn stalks. In the center is a representa- tion of the city’s Memorial Coliseum. On the fly side is a factory with two smokestacks, then three more stalks of corn, and finally the girders of an unfinished rectangular building. Above the mill is a cloud; an- other is behind the upper part of the Coliseum; and smoke wafts from the smokestacks toward the fly. The scene is enclosed on the sides and above by three curved lines with the first indentation at the church steeple and the second at the factory smokestacks. The scene rests on Cedar Rapids, Iowa 63 a blue heraldic ribbon on which the city’s motto appears in white (with quotation marks): “PROUD of YESTERDAY [below the mill and church] PROGRESSIVE TODAY [below the Coliseum] PROMIS- ING TOMORROW” [below the factory and unfinished building]. Above the scene, running across the field nearly the same length as the scene is CEDAR RAPIDS; below, centered below the central segment of the scene is IOWA, all in large red letters. SYMBOLISM: In 1963 the city administration explained the flag’s symbolism: Red, white, and blue are the three basic colors because they are the basic colors of both the American flag and the flag of Iowa.

    Magnificent Stones at the Center of Power: Stone Carvers and the Building of the Washington National Cathedral M. Kenworthy Clift Andrus Seferlis February 22, 2010 Table of Contents Statement of Purpose___________________________________________1 Biography____________________________________________________2 Historical Contextualization______________________________________4 ―In the Center of Magnificence: The Stone Carvers and the Building of the Washington National Cathedral‖ Interview Transcription__________________________________________14 Time Indexing Recording Log_____________________________________63 Interview Analysis______________________________________________64 Appendix_____________________________________________________69 Works Consulted_______________________________________________71 Statement of Purpose The purpose of this Oral History interview and project is to gain a greater knowledge of the stone carvers role in building the Washington National Cathedral. In the interview Clift Seferlis, a stone carver, retells the stories and memories of his father, Constantine Seferlis, a master sculptor and stone carver who worked at the National Cathedral. Through the interview, one will have a greater understanding not only of the role of a stone carver, but of an immigrant who came from Greece to the United States. Biography Clift Andrus Seferlis was born on May 29, 1970 in Washington D.C. at Sibley Memorial Hospital. He grew up in a house with his mother, father and brother in Chevy Chase, Maryland. He attended the Beauvoir School on Mount St. Alban from Pre-K to third grade, then graduated and went to St. Albans Preparatory School for boys. At the same time he attended Beauvoir and St. Albans, both his parents worked on the Cathedral grounds. His father was a stone carver at the Washington National Cathedral and his mother taught at St. Albans School. He liked having both his parents close to him and has many memories of his father carving stone at the Cathedral.

  • Carson City, Nevada 57 ✪ CARSON CITY, NEVADA
    Carson City, Nevada 57 ✪ CARSON CITY, NEVADA Population Rank: U.S... # 566 Nevada...... # 6 Proportions: 2:3 (official) Adopted: 28 December 1992 (official) DESIGN: The specifications of Carson City’s flag are established in detail by ordinance, based on a field that is 4 by 6 feet. The flag is a horizontal tribar of white, blue, and white stripes, each one foot, four inches wide. The blue stripe is “process blue” and has two narrow white horizontal stripes one inch wide running across it, two and one-half inches from the top and bottom edges of the blue stripe. Over the blue stripe is a modified version of the circular city seal, 20 inches in diam- eter, its center one foot, seven inches from the hoist edge. A white line one inch wide encircles the seal on the portion that rests on the blue stripe. 58 American City Flags The seal itself is enclosed in a narrow blue ring and depicts in its center the dome of the state capitol. Over the capitol fly (on the same pole) the United States flag, and below it, and slightly smaller, the Nevada state flag, both in full color. The white capitol is centered on a silhou- ette of the state in blue. In the upper hoist quadrant of the seal is a very large brown golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), in flight toward the fly; about half of its right wing extends beyond the seal onto the blue stripe and its left wing arches over the capitol, but behind the flagpole. Be- hind the eagle and capitol are blue sky and white clouds.
