# Allamakee County Court House

The Allamakee County Court House in Waukon, Iowa, United States was built in 1940. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003 as a part of the PWA-Era County Courthouses of IA Multiple Properties Submission. The courthouse is the third building the county has used for court functions and county administration.

## History

There was a long and bitter fight between the towns of Waukon and Lansing as to which one would be the county seat in Allamakee County. Leaders held ten elections to determine the county seat before the American Civil War. A frame building in Waukon was used as a courthouse from 1854 to 1861. A more permanent courthouse and jail were completed in Waukon for $13,635 in 1861. In 1867, the Iowa Supreme Court finally settled the debate when it ruled that Waukon was the county seat. The building constructed in 1861 served as the county courthouse until 1940.
The county board of supervisors applied for and received a grant in 1938 from the Public Works Administration (PWA) to pay for 45 percent of the construction costs for a new courthouse. On September 22, of the same year voters approved a referendum authorizing the sale of $105,000 in bonds for construction. Decorah architect Charles Altfillisch was chosen to design the building. Bids for construction were submitted and reviewed in March 1939 and Rye & Henkel of Mason City, Iowa won the contract. The Allamakee County Court House was the last PWA funded courthouse built in Iowa.

## Architecture

The architectural style of the building is known as Depression Modern or PWA Moderne. The exterior of the building is composed of pressed brick and Bedford limestone. On the interior, the central corridors extend the length of the building and various county offices open onto the corridor. The interior features a monochromatic color palette and terrazzo floors that are laid out in large squares. The corridors were finished in plaster and marble, and aluminum handrails were used in the staircases. This courthouse has more structural problems associated with it than any others built during the PWA era in Iowa. An American Civil War monument dating from the 1920s stands on the courthouse grounds.

# Gay Neck, the Story of a Pigeon

Gay-Neck, the Story of a Pigeon is a 1927 children's novel by Dhan Gopal Mukerji that won the Newbery Medal for excellence in American children's literature in 1928. It deals with the life of Gay-Neck, a prized Indian pigeon. Mukerji wrote that "the message implicit in the book is that man and winged animals are brothers." He stated that much of the book is based on his boyhood experiences with a flock of forty pigeons and their leader, as the boy in the book is Mukerji himself. He did have to draw from the experiences of others for some parts of the book, such as those who trained messenger pigeons in the war. The book offers an insight into the life of a boy of high caste during the early 1900s and also into the training of pigeons. Several chapters are told from Gay-Neck's perspective, with the pigeon speaking in first person. Elizabeth Seeger writes in a biographical note about Mukerji that, "Gay-Neck was written in Brittany, where every afternoon he read to the children gathered about him on the beach the chapter he had written in the morning." In an article in the children's literature journal The Lion and the Unicorn, Meena G. Khorana calls the novel one of the few children's novels from Western or Indian authors to explore the Himalayas in a meaningful way (rather than simply using them as a setting), and notes the way Mukerji recalls their "grandeur and spiritual power".

## Plot

Gay-Neck, or Chitra-Griva, is born to a young owner in India. Gay-Neck's parents teach him how to fly, but he soon loses his father in a storm and his mother to a hawk. His master and Ghond the hunter take him out into the wilderness, but he becomes so scared by the hawks that he flees and ends up in a lamasery where the Buddhist monks are able to cure him of his fear. When his young master returns home he finds Gay-Neck waiting for him. But Gay-Neck decides to go on other long journeys, much to the boy's consternation. Then, during World War I, Gay-Neck and Ghond end up journeying to Europe where Gay-Neck serves as a messenger pigeon. He is chased by German machine-eagles (planes) and is severely traumatized when one of his fellow messenger pigeons is shot down. Gay-Neck and Ghond barely survive, and Gay-Neck is unable to fly. Ghond, Gay-Neck, and his master return to the lamasery near Singalila, where Ghond and Gay-Neck need to be cleansed of the hate and fear of the war. After that, Ghond succeeds in hunting down a buffalo that killed a villager, but feels remorse for having to kill the buffalo. Gay-Neck disappears once more, but when the other two return home, they find, to their joy, that Gay-Neck had already flown there ahead of them.
# Red Owl (retail chain)

Red Owl was a grocery store chain in the United States, headquartered in Hopkins, Minnesota. Founded in 1922, it was initially owned and operated by a private investment firm affiliated with General Mills, and purchased in 1968 by Gamble-Skogmo.

## History

Red Owl started as a coal company in the 1920s.
It opened its first store in Rochester, Minnesota. Eventually there were stores throughout the Upper Midwest, with one having opened in Bismarck, North Dakota, in 1927. The chain briefly expanded into the Chicago area starting in late 1959, but in 1963 sold its Chicago area operations to National Tea Company. In 1980, Gamble-Skogmo was acquired by Wickes Corporation, which sold the chain to three executives of the chain in January 1986. At that time, the company operated 441 stores in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and North and South Dakota.
In December 1988, the rights to the Red Owl name were obtained by grocery wholesaler Supervalu Inc., along with its warehouse and distribution operations. Supervalu phased out the Red Owl name.
Red Owl operated radio stations KRSI, WEBC and WNAX in the 1960s.

## In popular culture

From 1973 to 1977, the title sequence of The Mary Tyler Moore Show featured the lead character in a Red Owl meat department.
An independent grocery store in Saint Paul, MN, Cooper's Foods, was redecorated as a Red Owl to be featured in the 2009 Coen Brothers movie A Serious Man.
In Season 3, Episode 1 of FX's Fargo a Red Owl is featured.
In Season 9, Episode 9 of the Sci-Fi Channel's Mystery Science Theater 3000 which features the 1980 Italian film The Pumaman, Mike uses some of the movie's music which resembles commercial theme music to make up a jingle with the phrase "Dick's Red Owl, selection and service!". Mystery Science Theater 3000 originated in Hopkins, MN, which was Red Owl's headquarters.
A pharmacy named Value Drug Mart in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada, was redecorated as a Red Owl food store for the 2020 film Let Him Go.

## Masons Red Owl

Founded on February 1, 1969, Masons Red Owl was the first franchised Red Owl store in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Three years later, the owners, Mervin and Jared Mason, purchased a second Red Owl franchise in De Pere, Wisconsin. At that time, Masons Red Owl was incorporated from a partnership into the MEJ Corporation.
By 1985, the Green Bay area witnessed the introduction of several other grocery stores, including a Cub Foods and a Copps Food Center. At this point, the De Pere location was sold and efforts were refocused on the original franchise. In 1988, SuperValu Corporation purchased Red Owl's Green Bay warehouse, making it the supplier for Masons Red Owl.
In 1989 the store expanded to include a full-service deli department, and remained in 2023 as one of the smallest full-service grocery retailers.
Masons Red Owl faces competition in the Green Bay area from other grocers including Woodman's, Wal-Mart, Aldi and Festival Foods.

## Red Owl Family Center

In the late 60's early 70's Red Owl opened a small chain of family centers, similar to what Grand Union Supermarkets did with their Grand Way stores.
# Bohdan Janusz

Bohdan Janusz (Ukrainian: Богдан Януш; 23 January 1887 – 5 November 1930) was Polish and Ukrainian archaeologist, historian, ethnographer, conservator of prehistoric monuments in Lwów Voivodeship.

## Biography

He was born on 23 January 1887 in Lviv to a Ukrainian family. A pupil of the Polish archaeologist Karol Hadaczek. Before World War I, he was a long-time editor of the Kurier Lwowski. In 1907 he became a member of the Shevchenko Scientific Society. He was the author of many works on prehistory and art history, including Typy etniczne i kulturalne w prehistorji Galicji wschodniej (1911), Człowiek przedhistoryczny (Warsaw, 1914), and an extremely important and interesting work for Polish archaeology, Zabytki przedhistoryczne Galicji wschodniej (1918), compiling all the excavations in Eastern Lesser Poland known up to 1918. He published another monograph entitled Kultura przedhistoryczna Podola galicyjskiego (1914) in 1919 in excerpts in Przewodnik Naukowy i Literacki (Guide was a monthly supplement to Gazeta Lwowska).
In 1920, Janusz took up the post of conservator of pre-historic monuments of the Lviv district, which he held for several years. In the same year, he began publishing a monthly magazine "Wiadomości Konserwatorskie" dedicated to art and cultural monuments, which, however, was disbanded due to low interest. He also took a hobbyist interest in the history of Armenians in Poland.

## Death and legacy

He died a suicide death on 5 November 1930 (he shot himself in one of the hotels in Lviv). He was buried in Lychakiv Cemetery.
In 1993, a street in Lviv's Pidzamche neighborhood was named after Bohdan Janusz.

# Viduidae

The indigobirds, whydahs and cuckoo-finch make up the family Viduidae; they are small passerine birds native to Africa.
These are finch-like species which usually have black or indigo predominating in their plumage. The birds named "whydahs" have long or very long tails in the breeding male.
All are obligate brood parasites, which lay their eggs in the nests of songbird species; most indigobirds use firefinches as hosts, whereas the paradise whydahs choose pytilias and the cuckoo-finch parasitises cisticolids. Unlike the cuckoos and honeyguides, the indigobirds and whydahs do not destroy the host's eggs. Typically, they lay 2–4 eggs in with those already present. The eggs of both the host and the victim are white, although the indigobird's are slightly larger. Many of the indigo-plumaged species named "indigobirds" are very similar in appearance, with the males difficult to separate in the field, and the young and females near impossible. The best guide is often the estrildid finch with which they are associating, since each indigobird parasitises a different host species. For example, the village indigobird is usually found with red-billed firefinches. Indigobirds and whydahs imitate their host's song, which the males learn in the nest. Although females do not sing, they also learn to recognise the song, and choose males with the same song, thus perpetuating the link between each species of indigobird and firefinch. The nestling indigobirds mimic the unique gape pattern of the fledglings of the host species.
The matching with the host is the driving force behind speciation in this family, but the close genetic and morphological similarities among species suggest that they are of recent origin.
The family contains two genera:
| Image | Genus | Living Species |
| | Vidua Cuvier, 1816 | Village indigobird, Vidua chalybeata Purple indigobird, Vidua purpurascens Jambandu indigobird, Vidua raricola Barka indigobird, Vidua larvaticola Dusky indigobird, Vidua funerea Zambezi indigobird Vidua codringtoni Wilson's indigobird, Vidua wilsoni Quailfinch indigobird, Vidua nigeriae Jos Plateau indigobird, Vidua maryae Cameroon indigobird, Vidua camerunensis Pin-tailed whydah, Vidua macroura Steel-blue whydah, Vidua hypocherina Straw-tailed whydah, Vidua fischeri Shaft-tailed whydah, Vidua regia Long-tailed paradise whydah, Vidua paradisaea Sahel paradise whydah, Vidua orientalis Exclamatory paradise whydah, Vidua interjecta Togo paradise whydah, Vidua togoensis Broad-tailed paradise whydah, Vidua obtusa |
