Thayer County Attorney Dan Wer-ner told the Thayer County Commis-sioners Oct. 28 a civil lawsuit fi led against the county is “frivolous” and he has no doubt Sheriff David Lee did his job.
Richard Laughinghouse of Al-exandria fi led a complaint against Thayer County stemming from three protection orders fi led against Laugh-inghouse in October of 2014.
In the complaint, Laughinghouse states after the protection orders were fi led, he received a visit from the Thayer County Sheriff, who told Laughinghouse he was prohibited from “carrying or possessing fi re-arms.” Lee was backed by Werner, the complaint reads.
Laughinghouse, who has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, then disposed of his fi rearms. He is ac-cusing the county of infringing on his right to bear arms.
After the sheriff’s visit, Laugh-inghouse received a letter from the Nebraska State Patrol asking him to voluntary relinquish his permit.
Protection orders fall under two categories in Nebraska, domestic and harassment. State law provides for the removal of deadly weapons from offenders with protection orders against them.
In his complaint, Laughinghouse states the removal of fi rearms applies only to domestic abuse protection orders, not harassment protection orders.
He added that none of the three citizens who fi led the harassment
orders had an intimate history with Laughinghouse.
Laughinghouse said the request to dispose of his fi rearms is uncon-stitutional and he is asking the court to rule that he may have immediate possession of his fi rearms while the court decides the case. He is also asking for punitive damages.
Werner told the commissioners Laughinghouse also has a civil case against the Village of Alexandria. That case centers on Laughing-house’s inability to inspect and copy the villages records, which are public.
The plaintiffs in the complaint against the village are Laughing-house and his wife, Judy Laugh-inghouse.
Both claim the village charged them $12 per hour because their in-
spection and copying of the village’s records exceeded the village’s nor-mal business hours.
The couple was charged a total of $54.
Then, the village changed its hours. In the complaint, Village Clerk Donna Rut told the couple the village no longer intends to maintain regular business hours, therefore, the Laughinghouses contend, they are prevented from seeing the records. Rut is the clerk for fi ve villages.
The Laughinghouses want the vil-lage to reinstate its normal business hours because if the hours aren’t reinstated so the plaintiffs can inspect and copy the records, the plaintiffs will “suffer substantial, great and irreparable harm,” according to the complaint.

Hebron HalloweenApproximately 200 children in costume descended on Lincoln Avenue for the Hebron Lions Club annual Halloween parade Saturday. The Lions awarded
cash prizes in 11 categories. Afterward, area businesses and residents hosted Trunk-or-Treat for the children. See the winners on page 12.
Ed Bliss fi gures not many people know Hebron Glass & Upholstery turned 60 years old in March.
“I don’t think anyone realizes how long it’s been here,” he said.
Bliss said Hebron Glass is one of the three oldest businesses in Hebron with Thayer County Bank and Cen-tral Market heading up the list.
It all began on Lincoln Avenue un-der Earl Wolcott, nicknamed “Fats.” Sheets of glass were cut for the wind-shields of cars made before 1964.
Bliss’s dad, Lewis, bought the business in 1969 and Bliss started working part time there in 1971.
The business was a neutral ground for them, Bliss said.
“It was a way to be with my father. We learned a lot about each other,” he said.
After his dad passed away, Bliss stuck with it, and eventually his wife, Sharon, came on board.
They moved Hebron Glass to its current location just off Lincoln Av-enue on 3rd Street in 1993-1994.
About 10 years ago, Bliss saw an opportunity for the back outside wall of the building. He wanted something
to brighten up the area and give the downtown area distinction.
It took a while, but Bliss kept his idea close. He ended up ordering a mural from Artist Jamie Luttrell.
Bliss said he wants to get people talking about Hebron’s downtown area and he knows other merchants feel the same.
Luttrell listened to what Bliss wanted and took it from there.
She painted two open barn doors that show a vintage car inside. The mural is captioned, “Bliss & Sons’” above it.
People would remember his dad, Bliss said.
“Everyone knew dad. He was jovial,” he said.
Luttrell incorporated the old light fi xture that hangs above the mural and
added a retro gas pump on the side. She said she has at least one more
mural to paint in the downtown area and a couple of windows.
Bliss said he sees too much focus on development away from the downtown area. He said attention is needed on the area’s infrastructure and empty buildings.
“It looks tired,” he said.

The Bliss and Sons’ mural on the back wall of Hebron Glass & Upholstery was nearly completed as of Oct. 29. Jamie Luttrell is the artist.
Citizen concerned about Chester rescue route
The Thayer County Commission-ers discussed the route Chester Res-cue takes to the Thayer County Health Services during emergencies.
Currently, Chester Rescue travels one mile west of Road 6000 to Road 5900 because 6000 is a stretch of dirt.
“Taking that route is still faster than going through Hebron,” Com-missioner Dave Bruning said.
“We do need a stop sign. I’ve had people approach me,” Commissioner Chris Frye said.
The commissioners have also been approached about the bridge on 1st
Street, which suffered fl ood damage in May.
The Nebraska Department of Roads is expected to let bids on the bridge in early December.
Mark Timmerman of the Thayer County Roads Department said NDOR is working on the right-of-way process for the acre and a half it needs to replace the bridge.
Timmerman said NDOR needed four to six months to complete the real estate acquisitions.
“We’ve wasted June, July, August, September and October, good con-struction weather,” Frye said.
Playing multiple parts, John Noojin and John Lange entertained during the Thayer County Community Theater group’s “Taming the Wild, Wild West in a Dress,” a comedy western. The group has two more dinner theater shows, Nov. 6 and 7 at the Stastny Community Center. More photos, page 4.
Author, professional speaker and a steward of free libraries, Charlotte Endorf will present on the North Platte Canteen Nov. 9 at 1:30 p.m., Meridian Public School in Daykin.
Endorf is a graduate of Meridian and former resident of Alexandria. Her presentation is sponsored by Humanities Nebraska and Craig’s Automotive of Daykin.
During World War II, American soldiers from across the country rolled through North Platte via trains en route to Europe and the Pacifi c Theater.
The railroad depot in North Platte saw more than six million soldiers from 1942 to 1946.

From the Corder: The Wom-an’s Aid Society met at Mrs. McIntyre’s on Thursday last, and were treated to a lovely dinner, so lovely that Mrs. McIntyre barely escaped a fi ne, for the rules of the society do not allow too many good things at once. There were about 45 ladies present with a good sprinkle of gentlemen. The ladies were industrious and did so much sewing that Mrs. McIntyre will have nothing to do this winter but read.

Thank you for the prayers, memorials, calls, visits, fl ow-ers, food and offers of help.
Thanks to the ladies of our church who prepared the lunch served.
Thank you to the family and friends who came to see Don while he was in the nursing home in Hebron. After Don’s six and one-half years there, the staff was family to Don and me. They were also so caring to Don. Thanks also to Hospice Asera Care who were so good to us.
A special thanks to Jamie Luttrell for her singing at the funeral and Judy Kassebaum’s organ playing.
Thanks especially to Pastor Steve Speichinger who came so faithfully to see Don and pray for him. I’ll never forget the day before Don went to heaven. Steve asked Don if he was ready to go be with Jesus. With his big dark blue eyes, Don answered “Yes.”

FOUNDATION FOR TCHS
Midwest Bank in Norfolk was recently recognized by USDA Rural Development Nebraska State Director Max-ine Moul as a Top Ten Lender (Ranking fi fth) for the fi scal year 2015 USDA Rural De-velopment’s Guaranteed Rural Housing (GRH) loan program. Midwest Bank, delivered in excess of $3.8 million in home loans to allow 46 rural Nebraska families to “build a better future together.”
In fi scal year 2015, 75 ap-proved lenders participated in the GRH program and pro-vided more than $103 million to assist 1,030 rural Nebraska households in achieving ho-meownership. The program assists fi rst time homebuyers and those who are seeking a different home because of changing family needs.
Moul said, “We appreciate the Nebraska approved lend-ers, our partners, who make this program such a success. We anticipate another active year and we look forward to helping more rural Nebraskans to achieve the dream of hom-
eownership. I wish to thank Midwest Bank for its dedica-tion in using the program.”
With guaranteed fi nancing, private lending institutions provide the loans which are guaranteed by the federal government. The program features no down payment to eligible income households and no maximum mortgage limits. Homes must be located in rural areas. All communities in Nebraska are eligible for USDA Rural Development housing programs with the exceptions of Fremont, Grand Island, Hastings, Kearney, Lincoln, North Platte, Omaha and South Sioux City/Da-kota City. See http://eligibility.sc.egov.usda.gov/eligibility/ for eligible areas.
GRH loans have been pro-cessed in 76 out of the 93 coun-ties throughout Nebraska.
Existing guaranteed or direct loan borrowers may refi nance their home loans under the GRH loan program to obtain a possible lower interest rate.
Midwest Bank Receives Lender Honors FromUSDA Rural Development
National Diabetes MonthNovember is National Dia-
betes Month. This is a great time to help raise awareness of this ever-growing disease. Here are just a few of the recent statistics on diabetes:
· Nearly 30 million children and adults in the United States have diabetes.
· Another 86 million Ameri-cans have pre-diabetes and are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
· The American Diabetes Association estimates that the total national cost of diagnosed diabetes in the United States is $245 billion.
Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, your body does not use insulin properly. This is called insulin resis-tance. At fi rst, the pancreas makes extra insulin to make up for it. But over time, your pancreas isn’t able to keep up and can’t make enough insulin to keep your blood glucose levels normal. Type 2 is treated with lifestyle changes, oral medications, and insulin.
When glucose builds up in the blood instead of going into the cells, it can cause two problems:
· Your cells may become starved of energy.
· High blood glucose levels can hurt your eyes, kidneys, nerves or heart.
Some people with type 2 can control their blood glu-cose with healthy eating and being active. In some cases, your doctor may need to also prescribe oral medications or insulin to help you meet your target blood glucose levels. Type 2 usually gets worse over time. Even if you don’t need medications at fi rst, you may need to later on.
It is estimated that one in every four people with diabetes does not even know they have the disease. If left undiagnosed or untreated, diabetes can lead to serious health problems, including heart attack and stroke.
People with diabetes need to know that heart disease can be a serious health prob-lem for people with diabetes. The good news is that people with diabetes can lower their chances of having diabetes-related heart problems by learning how to manage their diabetes.
There are many resources to help people with diabetes take important steps to stay healthy and prevent diabetes-related heart problems. It is important to learn what you can about the link between diabetes, heart disease and other diseases. People with diabetes need to work with their health care team to set targets and man-age their blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol. If you have diabetes, talk to your doctor about what goals you should have.
Diabetes is a challenging disease that affects the entire family in many ways. For people with diabetes and their families, it’s important to work together to manage diabetes and prevent serious health problems such as heart dis-ease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, and nerve damage that can lead to amputation.
It’s also important to know that having a family history of diabetes, such as a mother, father, brother or sister with type 2 diabetes, puts you at greater risk for developing type 2 diabetes. The good news is that you – and your family – can take small, but important steps to delay or prevent type 2 diabetes. For more information on diabetes education, contact you health care provider.

Keeping Belvidere Beautiful…Sunday was a beautiful fall day and these volunteers took
advantage of it. These volunteers keep the Belvidere spur free of litter every spring and fall. Because of their efforts, the curved drive into Belvidere is appealing and beautiful. Their work is dedicated to the memory of one of its club members who sug-gested the clean up idea.
Having been under the weather last week, I haven’t done a very good job of col-lecting news. If I don’t call and you have some news please call LaDonna Avers at 402-768-6567. You may not think your news is important but I guarantee you someone will fi nd it newsworthy. By now all the Halloween candy should be out of the house, but wasn’t it fun for a few days? All the little ghosts and goblins have retired their costumes after delighting all the grandmas and grandpas on Saturday night.
Some area ladies had an early Halloween when they drove to Hastings on Thursday. Ruth Yoachim, Donna Bedlan and Paula McGinness spent most of the day shopping but were disappointed on the way home when their favorite
B-D StudentsAttend FFA Convention
TaraLee Hudson accompa-nied four other members of the Bruning-Davenport FFA on a trip to Louisville, Ky., last week.
There were 64,000 other FFA members at this conven-tion. Isaac Baysinger, also from B-D, was selected to play his trombone and lead the orchestra at the big meeting.
While there, they toured the International Corvette Museum which the students found fascinating. They also saw the place where many expensive cars (as seen on national TV) had been sucked into a sink hole.
It was a fun and educational experience for the young-sters.
ice cream joint ran out of ice cream before they got there.
Thayer County Health Ser-vices held its annual big party last weekend. Prime rib, lovely table decorations and personal service all went to make sure everyone had a good time. The prime rib dinner was delicious which the cattlemen prepared. A really funny melo-drama helped everyone have a good time, after which the many door prizes were given out. Hollywood, be aware, there are new stars rising in Thayer County, Nebraska. Better watch out. Quite a large number of Belvidere residents attended the gala along with folks from every other town in the county.
Don’t forget, call LaDonna with your news. 402-768-6567.

Train watching...The exceedingly warm November weather is giving outside
lovers an opportunity to visit the Whistle Stop Park in Belvidere. A last chance to enjoy the beauty of the season and view the many trains traveling on the double track of the Union Pacifi c railroad. Last week the Barnum Bailey Circus train went by on its way to its winter home in Florida.

Improvements continue...One more necessary project has been completed at the Whistle
Stop Park in Belvidere. Men and women now have access to bathroom facilities when they visit the Park. An outside drinking fountain is also available.
