HONORS B1Oak Hills awards alumni

While school districts appre-ciate Ohio increasing theamount ofmoney itwill allocateto public education in the nexttwo years, area school officials

say it’s notenough to re-store programsor personnel cutsmade in recentyears.

The biennialstate budgetsigned by Gov.John KasichJune 30 provides

$94 million more to schools inthe Greater Cincinnati region

than thepreviousbiennial budget.

» TheOakHillLocal School Dis-trict will receivean additional$265,000 in statefundingforfiscalyear 2014, and$440,000 in fiscalyear 2015, ac-

cording to Oak Hills schools su-perintendent Todd Yohey.

He said that while they arereceiving additional statefunds, OakHills is losing feder-al aid for programs in the dis-trict.

“We learned that the federalsequestrationwill reducefeder-al funding for Oak Hills by ap-proximately $215,000,” Yoheysaid. “It’s like riding a rollercoaster.”

Oak Hills schools TreasurerRonda Johnson said the districtis still waiting to learn aboutfederal cuts to another schoolprogramthatwill likelybalanceout any additional funds theywill receive from the state.

“In theory, from an overallrevenue perspective, we’re go-ing to be about flat lined, whichis what we included in our fore-cast,” she said during a July 1board of education meeting.

Yohey said that the addition-al funds will not eliminate theneed to place a five-year 4.82-mill emergency levyon theNov.5 ballot.

Delhi Twp. —Two flocks havebecome one as the CincinnatiWest Baptist Church of Addys-ton has merged with DelhiHills Baptist Church.

Delhi Hills Baptist ChurchRev. Bob Overberg said that itwas divine intervention thatbrought the Rev. Harry Lusbyto his door.

“We had been praying forquite some time that anotherchurch would join with us,” hesaid.

Overberg said the member-ship at his churchwas notwhatit used to be and therewere notmany children to continue thefaith. Lusby said for years he

and his wife Nancy had ad-mired the large church and lotand were waiting for the daythat they could serve in thebuilding. So, when he heardthat Delhi Hills was looking tomerge, he was thrilled.

“We prayed about it for 25years,” he said. “I just thoughttheLordbrought us together atthe right time for the right rea-son.”

The churches merged inJanuary and since have

worked to increase programsand be more active in the com-munity, Overberg said.

“Brother Harry has thesame vision to see the churchgrow,” he said.

Programs they offer in-clude: Sunday school for chil-dren and adults, Bible study,visitationtopeople in thehospi-tal or who cannot leave theirhome, youth choir class and

said everything is fin-ished except for the audi-torium and music class-rooms.

The auditorium andmusicarea is scheduled tobe completed the first orsecond week of August,she said.

“That’s how we agreedto do it with the construc-tion team,” she said. “Wewanted to make sure theadministration officesand academic wings werecompleted first, and thenmove on to the auditori-

um.”DavidHester, aproject

architect for SFA Archi-tects Inc., said the schoolwill be one of themost en-ergy efficient schools inOhio.

He said the design in-corporates a great deal ofnatural light, and theschool will feature a geo-thermal heating and cool-ing system.

Three Rivers spokes-woman Kate Fenton saidthe district will host sev-eral tours of the newschool for alumni, par-ents, students, retiredstaffmembers, communi-ty groups, business part-ners and district resi-

dents throughout themonth of August. A calen-dar of tours is available atthreeriversschools.org.

The district will alsocelebrate the opening ofthe school with a dedica-tion ceremony at 2 p.m.Sunday, Aug. 18, she said.

Bohannon said shemeets regularly with thearchitects and projectmanagers, and she stopsby thesiteonadailybasis.

District leaders wantto keep the constructionon schedule andbudget sothere are no delays inopening, she said.

“It has gone smootherthan anyone imagined itwould,” she said.

“Our goal is to see thechurch full,” Overbergsaid.

He said so far the tran-sition has been smoothand now they’re just try-ing to be more visible in

the community.“We’ve had visitors ev-

ery week,” he said.Lusbysaidone thinghe

wants to do is to go door-to-door in the townshipand talk to people aboutChrist and let them knowthe church is available tothem.

“People don’t realizethe value and the qualitythat a churchbrings to thecommunity,” he said.“You come to this church

you find great teachers,good preachers and goodmusic.”

thankful for an increase,”hesaid. “However, thegapinfundingthatcreatedtheneed for new revenue is$5.2 million per year.There is still aneedfor theoperating levy.”

The Oak Hills schoolboard voted July 1 to havethe Hamilton County Au-ditor certify a five-yearemergency levy to raise$5.2 million for operatingexpenses. Once the audi-tor certifies the amount,theboardwill thenhave topass a resolution to placethe levy on the ballot.

This would be a secondattempt to pass a levy inthe district after a five-year 4.82-mill emergencylevy failed on the May 7ballot.

» Cincinnati PublicSchools spokeswoman Ja-net Walsh said in terms ofbasic stateaid thebiennialbudget represents an in-crease over the previous

statebudget,which iswel-come.

“This is still a lowerlevel of state aid than ourdistrict received in 2009,however the increase iswelcome because we arefacing higher costs,” shesaid.

Walsh said CincinnatiPublic will receive about$8.8 million of additionalfunding in 2014 and about$15.8million in fiscal year2015.

“It is by nomeans a bo-nanza because we are stillfacing financial pressuresand we need to hold theline on spending,” shesaid.

The CPS board of edu-cation approved the dis-trict’s 2013-2014 generalfund budget at the end ofJune, she said. The rough-ly $474 million spendingplan represents no overallincreases in expendituresby the school district, shesaid.

In a statement, Cincin-nati Public Schools Super-intendent Mary Ronansaid the 2013-2014 budget

advances the district’s ac-ademicgoalsofearlyliter-acy, more rigorous K-12standards, preparationfor college readiness andinfusing technology intothe curriculum throughblended learning experi-ences. She said the budgetwas finalized with no ma-jor cuts to student ser-vices.

“I believe this budgetkeeps the focus on learn-ing, students and fam-ilies,” Ronan said.

A $52 million deficitthe district projected lastfall was erased by elimi-nating positions, reducingnon-personnel spendingand consultant contractsand carefully monitoringthis year’s expenses.

The district’s five-yearforecast projects con-tinued fiscal challenges inthe coming years and allexpenses will need to bescrutinized, Walsh said.

“We really, really needtobeverycareful becausecostscontinuetorise,”shesaid. “Wearenot out of thefinancial woods yet.”

Westwood — Over theyears, Westwood UnitedMethodist Church –through programs suchas The Food Pantry andMy Neighbor’s Place –has tried to help the com-munity in every way pos-sible.

But for Rev. Dr. LeeStrawhun, the church’ssenior pastor, it didn’tseem like enough.

“We felt like our nextstep,” he said, “was to ad-dress children.”

Enter Sarah Beach.The 29 year old has

been named the directorof Children and FamilyMinistry to the Commu-nity and Church.

It’s a long job titlewithan even longer job de-scription.

Beach will spend half

ofher time in thecommu-nity and half of her timedeveloping children’sministrieswithin the con-gregation.

“I’m really excitedabout the church’s em-phasis oncommunityout-reach, as well as theirstrong children’s minis-tries already in place,”Beach said. “I’m excitedtomeet the neighborhoodkids and build relation-shipswith them. I’m real-ly loving Westwood sofar.”

Beach, a 2002 Bethel-Tate High School gradu-ate, said her time at theAsbury Theological Sem-inary in Wilmore, Ky.,prepared her for thisrole.

“The focus was onprayer and social justice,and I think those are agood combination for anyministry,” she explained.

“I feel like I have a greatfoundation spiritually.”

Beach intends to im-plement several pro-grams, including a vaca-

tion bible school that wasrecently held.

“It’s a great time forkids and the communityto come together, learnmore about the bible andenjoy each other’s com-pany,” she said.

Beachalsohopes toes-tablish a strong relation-ship with Westwood Ele-mentary School and isplanninganopen-gymac-tivity in which childrengrades one through sixcan play games and havedevotion during the sum-mer.

Beach hopes her pro-grams are a refreshingaddition to the church,which has been a WestSide staple since 1846.While West Sidechurches are nothingnew, Strawhun believeshis is unique, as it has oneof the most diverse con-gregations in the city.

Kevin McKenna’s fas-cinationwithcigarsbeganat a young age.

“My grandfather wasan avid cigar smoker,”McKenna said. “Even as akid, I was fascinated bythem. Obviously I wasn’tsmoking them, but it wasalways something I wasattracted to, the ritual in-volvedwith it – thecuttingand the lighting and theforced relaxation thatcomes with it.”

McKenna, a 2001 ElderHigh School graduate, hassince turned his passionfor cigars into a business,launching his own brand –La Abeja – in February.

“The idea struck me,and I just kind of becameobsessedwith it,” saidMc-Kenna, who hasworked atTheParty Source inBelle-vue, Ky., for more thanfive years. “That’s how Ido things. Something popsin my head, and I work onit, work on it, work on ituntil I find what I want.”

McKennamade trips toMiami and SouthAmericato research the tobacco-rolling process before hir-ing Casa Fernandez, oneof the topproducersofCu-ban tobacco.

“Cigars are like anyother product; it all startswith raw materials,” hesaid. “You have to havegood tobacco.”

McKenna, who studiedadvertising and market-ing at Xavier University,also helped design, pack-age and advertise hisproduct.

“I definitely targetmore of a connoisseur andboutique-cigar enthusi-ast,” he said, “so I wantedto have something thatwas medium-bodied interms of strength but alsohad the flavor complexitythat would keep the atten-tionofpeoplewhoareavidcigar enthusiasts.”

McKenna chose to callhis cigar “La Abeja,”which means “the bee,”because of the symbolismassociatedwith the insect.

“Bees represent sa-cred knowledge becauseit’s the only animal thatcan create geometricshapes,” McKenna ex-plained. “Ancient culturesbelieved that bees pos-sessedsomesortofsacredknowledge that was be-trothed to them by theirdeities.”

McKenna is pleasedwith the early results. Heinitially produced 380boxes –15 cigars per box –and hopes to sell between800 and 1,000 boxes in hisfirst year. He is also in theprocess of creating hisnext flavor.

The Hamilton Countyprosecutor does not antic-ipate filing criminalcharges after receivingthe final report into theApril 29 attempted sui-cide by a La Salle HighSchool student.

The 17-year-old boybrought a .45-caliber pis-tol to school and shot him-self in the head in front ofabout 22 students in aclassroom.

He has since beentransferred from theUni-versityofCincinnatiMed-ical Center to a rehab hos-pital.

The 488-page reportfrom the Hamilton Coun-ty Sheriff’sOfficewasde-livered within the lastseveral days.

“No charges are ex-pected as a result of thisincident,” said Julie Wil-son, spokeswoman forProsecutor Joe Deters.

The report includes in-terviews with the boy’sparents and other stu-dents who were in theclassroom when he shothimself, as well as poemshewrote that openlymen-tioned suicide.

The sheriff’s office

said it is not unusual to in-vestigate attempted sui-cides exhaustively, par-ticularly those involvingagun inside a school.

Revelations in the re-port include:

» Earlier during theday of the shooting, theboy handed a fellow stu-dent an envelope contain-ing $1,000 in cash and toldhim to give it to anotherstudent.

» The boy’s father toldinvestigators that his le-gally registered gunswere kept in a safe, butthat his son probablyknew the combination.

» Both parents saidthey had not heard theirson threaten suicide.

Cheviot — The city isworking with First Finan-cial Bank to support andencourage businessgrowth.

Cheviot Economic De-velopment Director Caro-line Statkus said the bankrecently launched a mi-cro-business lending pro-gram available to smallbusinesses in the city.

The loan program willinject up to $100,000 intothe city to help revitalizethe business district, shesaid.

“We see the micro-

lendingprogram asan impor-tant re-source inpromotingCheviot’seconomicdevelop-ment ef-

forts,” Statkus said.David Bock, business

banking sales managerfor First Financial, saidthe bank moved its corpo-rate headquarters to Cin-cinnati two years ago andhas been looking for com-munities throughoutHamiltonCounty inwhichto invest.

FirstFinancial has sim-ilar programs in place inHamilton and Middle-town, and Bock said the

goal is to help establishedcities fulfill revitalizationopportunities. It has of-fices at 5712 BridgetownRoad and 6570 HarrisonAve. in Green Township.

Business owners canuse themoneyanyway it’sneeded to boost their busi-ness, whether it’s to payfor building improve-ments, buy new equip-ment or add inventory, hesaid.

The $100,000 First Fi-nancial has made avail-able for the loan programis set up in a special, rotat-ing loan fund, and Bocksaid when borrowers pay

back their loans the mon-ey is returned to the lend-ing pool to be loaned outagain.

Statkus said Cheviotbusinesses with10 or few-er employees and annualrevenues up to $500,000are eligible to apply for amicro loan. She said themaximum loan per busi-ness is $10,000, and bor-rowersmay only have oneloan at a time.

“One of the great as-pects of the program isthat this is a revolvingloan fund, so as loans arepaid off, funds will goback into the $100,000

lending pool,” she said.From a marketing

standpoint, Bock said theloan program helps getFirst Financial’s name outin the city, but more im-portantly it reaffirms thebank’s commitment to in-vesting in the communi-ties it serves.

“It gives us an opportu-nity to support small busi-nesses and help the cityrevitalize its business dis-trict,” he said.

Statkus said the city isalsokickingoff another fi-nancial incentive pro-gram this summer.

As part of the city’s

Community DevelopmentBlock Grand funding, shesaid Cheviot has a total of$25,000 available formatching grant funds forcommercial facade im-provements.

“Any Cheviot businesscan apply for $1,000 ingrant funds if they matchthat with their own $1,000on an improvement to theexterior of their build-ing,” she said.

The commercial fa-cade program runsthrough Sept. 6, she said.

Cheviot business own-ers can contact the city at661-2700.

Price Hill —The EnrightRidgeUrbanEcovillage isworking to teach resi-dents how they can cap-ture and use the sun’s en-ergy.

Solar energy can beutilized to generate elec-tricity and heatwater, andsunshine is also importantfor growing successfulgardens.

Through the recentlylaunched Solar Communi-ty Project, the ecovillage

is showing homeownershow they could benefitfrom embracing solar en-ergy.

“It’s an educational op-portunity for folks whowant to learn how to takecontrol of their own ener-gy production,” said Dan-iel Divelbiss, an ecovil-lage resident who is help-ingcoordinate theproject.

He said the ecovillagedecided to start a solarproject last fall to encour-age people to consider so-lar energy. In addition tobeing a clean energy

source,hesaidpeoplewhouse solar energy systemsrealize economic benefitsfrom generating theirown energy.

As part of the project,Divelbiss conducts solarassessments for residentsinterested in solar energy.

Ecovillage residentDeborah Jordan said theassessment service is de-signed to help residentsmake informed decisionsregarding renewable en-ergy installations, homeimprovement projectslikegreenhousesorsolari-

ums and garden place-ment.

Divelbiss said the eco-village purchased a toolcalled the Solar Pathfind-er to use during the as-sessments. The tool helpsthe assessor determine aproperty’s solar irradi-ance potential.

The Solar Pathfinderallows the assessor to de-liver the client and easy tounderstand report detail-ing how much electricityor hot water can be gener-atedbyasolarenergysys-tem or how much shade

and sun a garden plot willreceive.

Divelbiss said the eco-village is hosting a work-shop from 3-5 p.m. Sun-day, July 14, at the ImagoEarth Center, 700 EnrightAve. The workshop willcover how to use the SolarPathfinder and how to ap-ply itsresults tosolarelec-tric, solar thermal andgarden plot decision mak-ing, he said.

The workshop is $30per person, which in-cludes a one-day rental ofthe Solar Pathfinder to

complete an assessmentat one’s own home.

He said several ecovil-lage residents have al-ready used the solar tool,and he would like to seemore people throughoutthe neighborhood put it touse.

A solar site assessmentis $50 for neighborhoodresidents and $40 for eco-village members.

Delhi Twp. — XavierUniversity has a specialplace in the Murphyhousehold.

It waswhereDanMur-phy met his wife Julie in1981. They both graduat-ed in 1985, were marriedin Xavier’s BellarmineChapel in 1988 and raisedtwo children to be life-long Muskies fans.

“We’ve been seasonticket holders since wegraduated,” Julie Mur-phy, 50 said. “When thekids camealongweaddedtwo more for our seasontickets.”

So when their oldestchild Kelsey Murphy, 18,was awarded Xavier Uni-versity’s St. FrancisXavi-er scholarship, the twosaid they were thrilled.

“We could not be moreproud of her,” Julie Mur-phy said. “We’re glad thatshe was rewarded for allher hard work.”

Kelsey was one of just10 incoming freshman toreceive the four-year full-tuition scholarship to Xa-vier. Even more unique,her mother received thesame scholarship whenshe graduated from OakHills High School in 1981.

“I think it’s amazingthat we won the samescholarship,”Kelseysaid.“My mom has lived a lifeworth emulating and thefact that I’m following inher footsteps makes mefeel really proud.”

Xavier University Di-rector for Strategic Com-

munications Kelly Leonsaid the Murphys sharesomething rare by earn-ing the same scholarship.

“This is not somethingthat I hear everyday,” shesaid. “I think this is prettyexciting for this familywho has so many ties toXavier toshare this schol-arship and legacy withXavier.”

Dan Murphy, 49, saidhe is proud of both hisdaughter and wife.

“I am so excited by thedynamicduo; likemother,like daughter,” he said.“Theodds thatbothwouldearn the exact scholar-ship some 32 years apartare astronomical.”

Julie said she wasfloored when she foundout they could sharesomething so special incommon.

“It seems almost im-probable that mother anddaughterwould be select-

ed for this same presti-gious award 32 yearsapart,” she said. “I knowreceiving this scholar-ship in 1981 was truly lifechanging for me.”

She said she has highhopes for her daughter’s

college career.“As I think about Kel-

sey’s future, I’m eagerlyanticipating how receiptof this scholarship and at-tending Xavier Univer-sity will enable her tomake an impact during

her lifetime,” she said.Kelsey graduated

fromSetonHighSchool inMay andwill attendXavi-er to doublemajor inmar-keting and finance, with aminor in entrepreneur-ship, advertising or both,she said. Her high schoolgrade-point average was3.98.

She said she consid-ered several colleges in-cluding Miami Univer-sity and University ofCincinnati. She was of-fered the full-tuitionLindner Honors-Plusscholarship at UC, whichshe said made picking acollege very hard.

“Iwas sitting inmy liv-ing room working onhomeworkwhen I saw theemail from UC pop up inthe corner,” she said. “Iclicked on it and then Iread it and I literallystarted crying because Ididn’t know what to do.”

AMELIA—Normally stackedfull of Division I recruits fromacross thecountry, this season’s18UMidlandRedskins has a no-table local flavor.

That’s not a bad thing as theoriginal programstarted by thelegendary “Papa Joe” Haydenwas Cincinnati-based and hasfeatured some of the Tristate’sfinest. Among the local big lea-guers with Midland ties areBarry Larkin, Ken Griffey Jr.,Ron Oester, Todd Benzinger,AdamHyzdu, Bill Doran, Rich-ard Dotson, Mark Lewis andJim Leyritz.

“We haven’t had this manylocal kids in a long, long time,”fieldmanagerDaveEvans said.“TheMidlandprogram40yearsago, everybody was from Cin-cinnati. If there are good play-ers here, we’re going to try toget them.”

This year’s crop of locals in-cludesCameronVarga(CHCA),T.J.Zeuch(Mason),AndrewBe-nintendi (Madeira), T.J. Nicht-ing (Badin), Jarett Rindfliesh(Lakota East), Jack Schaaf(Springboro), Jake Richmond(Oak Hills), Zach Shannon (An-derson), Zach Beckner (Leba-non) and Zach Cook (Milford).

Theboys fromthe Interstate275 belt have done well withjust two losses at presstime.

The most recognizable localis Madeira’s Andrew Beninten-di. He finished his high schoolcareer with 213 hits and hasplayed for the 18U team sincehewas16.Everyotherplayer to

accomplish that has made themajor leagues.

“Benintendi’s as good as itgets,” Evans said. “He startedoff as a little banjo-hitting lead-off guy and now he’s a powerhitting three-hole guy that candrive the ball for us.”

The 5-foot-10, 160-ish poundphenom reports to FayettevilleAug.20. Ifallgoeswell, thatwillbe 11 days after a successful

Midland trip toNewMexico forthe ConnieMackWorld Series.

Though he’ll probably moveback to lead-off in college, thedeceptively strong lefty is hap-py with his Midland at-bats.

“I’ve hit pretty well so far,”he said. “I changed my stanceup this year. It allowsme to seetheballmore.Aplayerhere lastyear had that stance. He wassmaller thanmeandhada lot of

power.”Evans has other top

prospects at his disposal thatwill also have to weigh the col-lege or pro decision like Benin-tendi.

“(Zach) Shannon’s got achance tobedrafted reallyhighnext year,” Evans said. “(Cam-eron) Varga’s about as good anarm as I’ve ever seen in thisarea.”

Varga has another season atCHCA and is committed toNorth Carolina. Shannonplayed on Moeller’s 2012 statechampionship team, butwas in-eligible this spring.

The slugging pitcher/firstbaseman will sport new colorsin 2013-14.

“I’ll be at Anderson nextyear,” Shannon said. “Coach(Chris)Newton iskindof a fam-ily friend. He played footballwith my Dad. I’ve known himsince Iwas a little kid. I’m pret-ty excited to play for him.”

Shannon figures to get moremound time for the AndersonRedskins and is ecstatic to beback on the field for the Mid-land Redskins after spendingthe spring at the cages andweight room.

Like his local cohorts, he’llhave plenty ofwatchful eyes onhim between now and August.Midland is all but a regular inFarmington, N.M., but nothingcan be taken for granted.

“Our biggest goal of the sea-son is to win the regional tour-nament to get to New Mexico,”Evans said. “With the talent inthe country, we’re right therewith anybody else.”

Everyone imbibing toomuch at the nightclub or cor-ner saloon and trying to get be-hind the wheel needs a driver.Anyone under the age of 16.

And as good as he was offthe tee -evenwithoutbenefit ofthe driver, the long-hittingSchmidt was consistentlyahead of Tepe - his foe said theputter was the key to theirmatch.

“He made everything helooked at,” Tepe said. “It’stough to beat an act like thatwhen he doesn’t miss any-thing.”

Tepe - a Lakota West gradand current University of Cin-cinnati player - finished as run-ner-up for the second consecu-tive year.

“It’s not bad,” he said.“When I started the week andshot 80 (in qualifying), I didn’tthink I’dmake the finals. I sur-vived 200-somegolfers the lasttwo years. When you look at itthat way, it’s a pretty big ac-complishment.”

Schmidt, playing in just histhird Met tourney, made sureTepe was relegated to brides-maid again with a dominantperformance, carding a birdieon the first hole to apply pres-sure all morning. He made bo-gey on third hole to level thematch, but finished the nineone under par and two up onTepe.

He made his third birdie onthe10th hole to go up three andall but sealed the match on the13th with a routine par whileTepe struggled to a double bo-gey.

have made that last (par)putt (which lipped aroundthe cup), but it was a goodfeelingknowingyoucouldthree putt towin theMet,”he said. “It’s awesome.Definitely my best indi-vidual match ever.”

An individual win, yes,but a family affair in botha literal and metaphoricsense.

On the literal side,brother Danny Schmidtcaddied forMichael in theearly rounds and dad TomSchmidt was on the bagfor the semifinals and fi-nals.

“He was quiet thewhole time,” Michael saidof his dad. “I told him‘Handme the club and getout of the way.’”

Tom said he violated

the command twice, tell-ing his son simply to aimfor center of the green foreasy pars on the eighthand 13th holes when Tepe

was in trouble.On the metaphoric

side, Schmidt was one ofseven players with LaSalle ties to reach theround of 32. There hesquared off against 2013Lancers grad MichaelWetterich and won 7-and-6.

Good Samaritan Hospitalis a teaching hospital wheremany local doctors practicemedicine and send theirpatients there for treatment.

In 1970-1980, it was thehospital ofchoice forpregnantwomen. Itwas wellstaffed andmother andchild re-ceived excel-lent care.

The hospi-tal’s begin-ning dates

back to 1852. ArchbishopJohn Purcell found thatthere was no place for poorpeople to receive medicaltreatment, so he purchased a21-bed former eye hospitaland turned it over to theSisters of Charity of Cincin-nati to run. They named it St.John’s Hotel for Invalids.Three years later, demandcompelled the sisters toexpand. Four members ofthe medical staff paid tohave an old colonial mansion,at the corner of Third andPlum streets remodeled toaccommodate 70 beds.

One day a destitute manshowed up that wouldchange everything. He hadtyphoid fever and needed along treatment plan. Whenhe recovered, the sistersgave him a job. Joseph C.Butler, a local banker whosent the man there, attempt-ed to pay the bill. The sisterssaid there was no bill as theircare was “for the love ofGod.” Butler was impressedwith their kindness andtalked a friend Louis Wor-thington into purchasing theold Civil War military hospi-tal for $70,000. The 95-bedhospital, located at Sixth andLock streets was presentedto the Sisters of Charity withtwo stipulations. Everyonewas to be treated regardlessof their color or religion, andthe hospital would be re-named Good Samaritan Hos-pital.

There have been manychanges over the last 161

years. In October of 1866, theMedical College of Ohio andMiami Medical College be-gan sending students therefor clinical study. This wasbefore Cincinnati Collegeand University Hospital wasestablished.

The medical staff provid-ed funds to build a surgicalamphitheater. And manyinnovations in general sur-gery, brain surgery and ob-stetrics occurred there. By1875, 800 medical studentswere being trained in Cincin-nati, many of them at GoodSamaritan Hospital. And by1899, the first class of eightnurses had graduated fromthe Good Samaritan HospitalSchool of Nursing.

In 1907, a five-bed annexwas established in the oldResor mansion in Clifton, butwhen they were to movethere it was too hilly. In-stead, hospital administra-tor, Sister Victoria, found asmall site in UniversityHeights. Joseph C. Butler Jr.purchased the adjoining 6acres and donated the prop-erty to them.

Since the two-wing hospi-tal opened in 1915, it hasgrown to encompass morethan a city block. A thirdwing was added in 1927,increasing bed capacity to639 beds. A fourth wing wasopened in 1959. In 1985, thecurrent Dixmyth patientcare tower opened. In thelate 1980s an original wingwas demolished and theDixmyth Visitor Garage andAmbulatory Surgery Centerwas constructed. In 1989,Victoria Hall, the nurses’residence, built in 1927 wasdemolished and a medicaloffice built in its place.

Today, the hospital has700 beds and 1,600 physi-cians are on staff. Good Sa-maritan is still an obstetrichospital where 7,000 babieswere born there last year.

As the 20th century gotunder way, our western hilltopcommunities flourished andgrew.

In Lyle Koehler’s “Westwoodin Ohio: Community, Continuityand Change” we read that the

population ofWestwoodalone grewfrom 2,050 in1900 to 6,075 in1920.

A retro-spective Cin-cinnati Postpiece on Oct.28, 1955, tellsus that on July20, 1895, newlyconstructed

West Eighth Street carried theElberon Avenue Electric Routeto Price Hill for the first time.Thus, the “sparsely-settledterritory” – so described in theCincinnati Commercial Gazetteon Sept. 29, 1893, was thrustinto the 20th century.

There can be no doubt thatthe construction of viaductsacross theMillcreek Valley inthe early 1900s made tripsfrom downtown to the hilltopseasier than ever. Atcincinnati-transit.net we learnthat there were six such via-ducts by 1920: the HarrisonAvenue (1908); the EighthStreet, 1910; Liberty Street(1912); Hopple Street and Lud-low Avenue (1914).

But what was still missing inwestern Cincinnati was a pub-lic high school, according to anAug. 23, 1921, Cincinnati En-quirer report.

The 1918Williams CincinnatiDirectory shows that all fourCincinnati high schools werelocated on the East Side: East(Withrow), Hughes, WalnutHills andWoodward highschools. This necessitated thatWest Side students attendHughes, according to the Cin-cinnati Enquirer, Sept. 13, 1921.

In the Cincinnati Board ofEducation’s Official Proceed-ings 1917-1921, we read in a Jan.12, 1920, communication fromthe site-selection committeethat their preferred locationfor the new school was “northof Glenway Avenue, west ofthe Rapid Run Road, and southof Queen City Avenue (LickRun Road) and along theBridgetown-Boudinot Road-

ways ...”Unfortunately, this area

belonged to the Covedale RuralSchool District.

Also in the board’s OfficialProceedings 1921-23, we learnthat at its Sept. 12, 1921, meet-ing, they accepted the transferof Covedale Rural into theirdistrict. While this was prob-ably mutually beneficial forboth, a Cincinnati Enquireraccounting the next day statedthat Covedale was annexed toenable Cincinnati to build itsnew high school somewhere inthe newly acquired area. Awritten description of CovedaleRural was included in the offi-cial Proceedings. Essentially, itcontained parts of Green Town-ship Sections 7, 13, 14 and 19.

At the board’s Oct. 31, 1921,meeting, we also read in theirOfficial Proceedings, 1921-23,that the site-selection commit-tee decided upon a nearly 29-acre tract on the southeastcorner of Bridgetown and Fer-guson roads. It belonged toElizabeth Hartupee, a Pitts-burgh widow who, possiblyfearing the enforcement ofeminent domain laws, askedthe board not to have her prop-erty condemned, thereby forc-ing her to sell. In her communi-cation to them on Oct. 28, shestated that she would like to

keep the farm land “to supportme in my old age.”

Apparently, the desires ofthe site-selection committeeprevailed, for the HamiltonCounty Recorder’s officeshows that the CincinnatiBoard of Education bought thisland fromMrs. Hartupee for$40,000 onMarch 23, 1922.

The project did not get off toa smooth start. We read in theWestern Hills Press onMarch26, 1926, that ground was bro-ken for the school that week;but on April 27, 1926, we readin the Cincinnati Enquirer thatthe city solicitor canceled theconstruction contracts for theproject.

This was because, accordingto this same article, there weretechnical violations found inthe bidding process.

On July 16, 1926, theWesternHills Press reported that newcontracts had just been award-ed for the project.

Needless to say, at leastthree months were lost, but onMonday, Sept. 10, 1928, WesternHills High School officiallyopened its doors and welcomedits first students, according toThe Cincinnati Post on thatdate.

School’s out for summer!This typically makes half ofthe household happy and halfof the household harried.

Why should mom and dadbe left with all the chores?Enlisting your kids to helpwith the house cleaning notonly takes some of the pres-sure off, it can help build someimportant life skills whilegiving you fun family time.

Houses don’t clean them-selves At least that’s what mymother always told me when Iwas a boy. Kids of all ages canhave a role in keeping thehouse ship shape.

» Cleaning kits/buckets.Personalize some inexpensivebuckets for your kids. Fillthem with the cleaning essen-tials. Make a project out of

decorating thebuckets withpaint pens,stickers, etc.,prior to clean-ing day.

» Today’stechnology. Aswith mostthings, if youmake it fun ormake it agame, your

kids will respond. There’seven an app for that. In Chore-Monster, parents assignchores to their kids, along witha set number of points to beearned when a specific choreis completed. Children canredeem earned points for funrewards such as ice cream, anew video game or a trip to the

zoo. Kids must manage theirchores and keep track of theirown points, all the while earn-ing interactive monsters theyplay with and learn from.

» Turn up the tunes! Leteveryone in the family choosea song for your cleaningsoundtrack. Music will inspireyou and will help keep yourworkers motivated.

My mom used to alwaysplay the Fleetwood Mac “Ru-mors” album when we cleanedand to this day when I hear it Iwant to start cleaning some-thing.

» Keep the clock.Keep thecleaning to a manageableamount of time. Set a goal tosee howmuch you can getdone as a family – in one hour.

A few words of caution:

» Assign age appropriatetasks.

» Be mindful of chemicalsaround young children. Makesure your kids are old enoughto understand how to properlyspray and clean with anycleaning solutions. As a rule,window cleaner is generallysafest and bathroom cleanerscontain the harshest chem-icals.

»Make your own all-pur-pose cleaner with a bottle ofwater and a few drops of dishsoap. It’s basically the sameformula that bubbles are madefrom and is safe for countersand wall touch ups. Try not toget it on the floor – slipperywhen wet!

»Dusting seems like theeasiest chore for little ones,

but dusting around breakablescould lead to disaster. Choosesimple bookshelves or toyshelves.

» Check your expectations.The way your child cleansmay not be perfect, or as youwould do it, but be open anduse positive reinforcement tofoster a willingness to cleanagain!

Finally, a little reward nev-er hurt. Cap off a great day ofwork with a family night out.

Here’s to a summer of fun –and a relatively clean house inwhich to rest and relax.

Derek Christian is founderand owner of My Maid Service,the region’s largest, indepen-dent professional cleaningcompany, which is based inBlue Ash.

FESTIVALS

At the rate readersare sharing recipes, Ishould be able to share

one in justabout ev-ery col-umn.

I metJackieMessers-mith, anAndersonTownshipreader,and herfamily

when we were leavingFour Seasons Marina.We lunched there andwere ready to jump inour boat to go back homewhen Jackie introducedherself. While the hus-bands talked aboutboats, Jackie and Italked about food. She issharing her family’sfavorite brunch recipe.

“My Aunt Wilmamade this for breakfastwhenever we came tovisit. My kids love it andwish I’d make it moreoften than special occa-

sions,” she told me.

Betty’s specialbreakfast eggs viaJackie Messersmith

Devil six hard-cookedeggs with:

3 tablespoons sour cream,regular or low fat

2 tablespoons yellowmustard

Place in single layerin sprayed 9-inch by13-inch pan.

Sauté until soft in 2tablespoons butter:1⁄2 cup diced bell pepper1⁄3 cup diced onion

Add and cook untilbubbly:

1 can cream of mushroomsoup (Jackie uses low-fat)

1 cup sour cream

Topping:1⁄2 cup shreddedmildcheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Cover eggswith soup mixture and

sprinkle with cheese.Bake 20 minutes. Bettylikes to serve this on topof toasted English Muf-fins, with fresh fruit andcrisp bacon as sides.

Healthy berry fruitgelatin snacks

My best friend andIndiana reader, CarolSpry Vanover, is alwayson the lookout forhealthy recipes. “Checkthis out,” she said. Thisis a colorful, protein-and antioxidant-packedberry treat. Grand-daughter Emerson, whojust celebrated her firstbirthday, “helped” mepick raspberries fromour patch. She broke intoa big smile with all threeteeth showing when Igave her a bite of thefruit snack. That’s equalto two thumbs up!Adults like these, too.Use any combination ofberries you like. Here’smy adaptation.

1heaping cup fresh

raspberries or otherberries or 1 cup frozen

21⁄4 cups natural apple juice,chilled (I used frozen, nosugar-added concentratein equal parts concentrateand water)

2 packets unflavored gelatin(1 tablespoon plus 2teaspoons)

Honey/sweetener to taste,optional (I didn’t use any)

Cook berries and 11⁄2cups juice at a gentleboil until berries soften.Puree in blender. Sprin-kle gelatin over rest ofcold juice, give it a stirand let stand a minute orso until gelatin absorbsthe water. Add this toblender mixture andblend until gelatin dis-solves. Add sweetener ifdesired. Line an 8-inchby 8-inch pan with clearwrap, overlapping sides.Pour mixture in. Put inrefrigerator until firm.Turn pan over, removeplastic and cut intosquares. Store in refrig-erator.

Tip: Brush pan withwater before lining withwrap. Wrap will stickeasily.

Asian grilled flanksteak

Sometimes I cravefoods with Asian flavorsand this steak is mynewest favorite. It takesjust minutes on the grilland is good with a side ofbroccoli and steamed,buttered potatoes.1⁄2 cup Tamari soy sauce (seetip)

3 tablespoons packedbrown sugar

2 tablespoons grated freshginger root

2 nice cloves garlic, minced1 tablespoon roastedsesame oil

Several dashes pepper11⁄2 pounds flank steak

Mix sauce, sugar,ginger, garlic, oil andpepper together in alarge zipper storage bag.Add steak, seal bag andturn to coat. Lay bag onits side and press out all

the air. This helps themarinade cling to thesteak. Marinate in re-frigerator up to a day.Remove steak and re-serve marinade. Grill,turning once, about 15minutes or so for medi-um rare. Let rest 5 min-utes. Meanwhile, bringreserved marinade to aboil and boil 1minute.Slice steak thinlyagainst grain and servewith marinade.

Tip: Tamari is astronger tasting soysauce and can be glutenfree. You can use yourfavorite soy sauce. Re-garding “light” soysauce, read labels assome “light” saucescontain more sodiumthan you may want.

RitaHeikenfeldRITA’S KITCHEN

Nature Nook FloralCenter in Cleves now of-fers a selection of morethan 75 fine wines fromboutique wineriesaround the world.

“Fine wine popularityis growing in the Cincin-nati area, so we’re veryexcited to have the op-portunity to offer thisunique selection ofwines to our customers.”said Jackie Duffy, ownerof Nature Nook.

Nature Nook, at 10 S.MiamiAve., chose to car-ry wines from wineries

that are interested increating wine for theirfine quality – not quanti-ty. The boutique wine-makers are dedicated totheir craft and oftenhave had the winery intheir family for genera-tions. Since their produc-tion is small, these winesaren’t found in large re-tail chains, making it dif-ficult for wine enthusi-asts to have the opportu-nity to purchase them.

Wine enthusiasts canbrowse the store forwines that are afford-

able and will suit every-one’s taste. Nature Nookworked with wine ven-dors to select an assort-ment of wines rangingmostly in price from $10to $20. All of the familiargrapevarietals are avail-able including chardon-nay, sauvignon blanc, pi-not grigio, pinot noir, ca-bernets, andmore. Otherlesser-known varietalsare also available, suchas the Spanish tempre-nillo and garnacha. Theyalso carry a wide selec-tion of red blends, which

have become very popu-lar lately.

Wine tastings are cur-rently scheduledthroughout the summerand fall. Call 513-941-3479 for information.

Nature Nook alsoplans to add a wine blogto its website for an-nouncements of newwines, specials, localevents and other infor-mation: www.naturenookonline.com.

After seven years in acouple ofdifferent salons,Kindal Farwick is findingher niche.

The new Salon Lofts atHarrison Avenue in DentCrossing provides Far-wick, who lives in Harri-son,with her own space torun her business along-side other stylists.

“It has been great tobuild my own business,have a flexible scheduleand be able to spend timewith my kids,” Farwicksaid.

The Salon Lofts isequipped with a full spaand a variety of hair andbeauty services.

Daniel Sadd, CEO ofSalon Lofts, said the pur-pose of his company is tosupport stylists in theirbusiness with marketingand technology but givingthem the freedom to runtheir business

There are 35SalonLoftlocations with eight in theGreater Cincinnati area;the first one opened in2010. Sadd said the newHarrison Avenue locationwaschosenbecauseof theproximity to the highway,ample parking and goodvisibility.

“When we found out(LaBella Salon) was notrenewing their lease (onthe Harrison Avenuespace), we jumped on it,”Sadd said. “It’s a good, vi-brant location and we arecertainly happy there.”

Sadd said the SalonLofts concept works be-cause the stylists’ have

the freedom to grow theirbusinesses independent-ly.

“It’s not just a place torent space,” Sadd said.

Leslie Fulford, ofFleisher Communica-tions, said the tools avail-able to the stylists will beable tohelpbuildbusinessin the community.

“We also provide thetools our loft owners needtogrowtheirbusiness.Wehave developed state-of-the art, proprietary soft-wareandwebtools thatal-low loft owners to connectwith potential and exist-ing clients through a va-riety of Internet market-ing mediums. The toolsare so robust, comprehen-sive and easy to use thatthey are unprecedentedwithin the industry,” Ful-ford said.

“We want our styliststohaveeducation, facility,freedom,” Sadd said. “Wewant them to have moremoney and less stress.”

Farwick agrees withthat sentiment. She is ableto design her space as shechooses and grow her cli-

ent list on her own, withthe backing of the tech-nology and marketing ofthe Salon Lofts brand.

“It’s like your own sec-retary online,” Farwicksaid of the Salon Loftswebsite. She uses toolsprovided by Salon Loftsbut grows her businessregularly sending cou-pons regularly to clients,usingGroupon and adver-tising with fliers andchurch bulletins.

Farwick also said thathaving her own spacehelps provide her clientswith more privacy and amore relaxing environ-ment.

Check outrainbows in the sky

We’ve all seen rain-bows after a rainstorm. Abeautiful arc of colorsstretchingacross thesky–ROY G BIV, red, orange,yellow, green, blue, indigoand violet.

But what do rainbowshave to do with astrono-my?

You can find out at theCincinnati AstronomicalSociety’s2ndSaturdayat8p.m. Saturday, July 13, at5274 Zion Road in MiamiTownship.

Stargazing follows(weather permitting) withadonation to thesocietyasthe admission. No reser-vations required.

With the nearest starmore than three light

years away it would takeastronomers more than78,000 years to go there.So sticking a star with athermometer, or puttingone on a bathroom scale,or scooping up a test-tubefull of star-stuff is impos-sible. So instead astrono-mers use a prism on theirtelescopes to break star-light into a rainbow of col-ors. By looking at whichcolors are strongest, orwhich ones are missing,astronomers can learn thebasic properties of thestars. Their temperature,how much star-stuff theyhave (their mass), andwhat chemicals they aremade of.

Spectroscopy is thekeyto knowing the stars.

For our next install-mentofCAS2ndSaturday,CAS member Bill pre-sents a look at the rainbowmaking tool of the new as-tronomy and how itchanged our understand-ing of our universe.

After Schultz’ talk as-tronomers will be on handto answer all your spaceyquestions, show how tele-scopes work, and helpview the night skythrough an array of tele-scopes – presentation heldclear or cloudy. Have atelescope, big or small?Bring it along for experthelp exploring the nightsky.
