Mulch the flower beds. Plant theflowers. Mow the yard. Wash the bedlinens. Clean the house from top to bot-tom. Make sure the guest room andguest bath are ready.  Paint the frontporch. Spruce up the screened-in backporch. Swab the deck.

Check the flight's arrival from Florida.Write out the grocery list. Stock the

pantry. Make sure there are several se-lections of K Cups for the Keurig. Shopfor everyone's favorite snacks and bev-erages. Don't forget the sweetheart cof-fee cakes that are a breakfast favorite onRace Day.

For Monday  it's a whirlwind in thekitchen with pulled pork, Sloppy Joes,baked beans, macaroni and cheese, po-tato salad, desserts and dips. Lots ofsweet tea and lemonade.

Company'scoming

Editor’s Note: The Flood of 1913 hadnot only its statistical side but also a humanviewpoint as scores of families lost theirhomes and other belongings and hundredsof others were standard away from jobs andfamilies.

A story written by Faith Wellman ap-peared in the Sept. 29, 100th anniversaryedition of the Noblesville Ledger.

For almost a week the skies had beenovercast and the spring sun had fought alosing battle with the marching ranks ofdark clouds

Housewives carrying baskets of washwent to doors and, casting an eye on theominous banks of clods, turned again in-doors. Children, protesting that it wasspring, were nevertheless bundled in raingear for school and were sternly warned toput up umbrellas if the rains came. Employ-ees, both men and women, likewise scur-ried to offices and factories garbed againstthe threatening elements.

Oddly enough, just as it is a relief whena child who has had prolonged sniffles andmysterious high fever that refuse to breaksuddenly blossoms out with the red spots of

measles, so was it a relief when on Satur-day, March 22, the long threatened rain atlast began to fall in a steady drizzle.

It was a relief that was to be short-livedand was to turn first to anxiety and then tofear.

For by Sunday, March 23, the drizzlehad become a downpour, relentlessly pelt-ing the earth, filling every chuckhole, form-ing puddles in every depression. Soinclement was the weather that although itwas Easter Sunday many churches post-poned the most holy of Christian obser-vances that people might stay safelyindoors.

But soon, for many people, there was tobe no safety indoors. All day Monday thetorrential rains fell and, together with thespring thaw, the river and every brook andcreek in the area began a steady, uncheckedrise until by Tuesday the highest bankscould not contain the heavy burden of theswirling waters and on Wednesday, March26, White River and its tributary creeksoverflowed their banks and almost thewhole of Hamilton County was a vast, mud-dy sea of water.

Thus began the flood of 1913, which ismore than half a century has never beenequaled in the devastation it wrought.

When the citizenry realized they wereface-to-face with an emergency that carriedwith it the threat of loss of life and property,they joined ranks to fight against nature onthe rampage.

The water was already 4 or 5 feet overthe lower iron span of the Lake Erie andWestern Railroad Bridge in Noblesville.

Crews of men were organized to sand-bag the levies, but the tremendous pressureof the surging water prevailed againstman’s efforts and finally, in a desperateeffort to weigh down the bridge, heavy carsof coal were pushed onto the tracks.

But again the river maneuvered to washaway a great bank of history of Noblesville.The downtown district was threatened.

Actually, although the water rose tocover the streets, the buildings were stillsafe.

Editor’s Note: The Federal Hill areawas not so fortunate. Read more about theflood in next Sunday’s issue of the HamiltonCounty Reporter.

By STEVE DILLINGERI feel compelled to address the May 22

article in the Indianap-olis Star titled "Heatedexchange erupts overInd. 37 roundaboutplan."

This article talkedabout a heated ex-change between meand the Executives atLockart Cadillac, lo-cated on the corner ofState Road 37 and

126th St. in Fishers.  This is one of theintersections that will be rebuilt with round-abouts over the next few years.

The article, which facts were basicallyright, certainly gave a different impressionthan the reality of this meeting.

I had just finished breakfast with Fish-ers Mayor Scott Fadness.  The Mayor hadtold me that he met with the Lockhart folksthe week before and that they were not veryhappy with the SR 37 project because theyfelt they would lose business during con-struction as well as after construction.

My family and I had purchased a lot ofCadillacs from Lockhart Cadillac over theyears and I felt an obligation to see if Icould help them deal with the facts of thesituation.  I did walk in to the dealershipunannounced and I did ask to talk withGeneral manager Mike Alsop.  I also toldMr. Alsop that I knew they were unhappywith the project, because I saw on the elec-tion financial reporting sheet of BillSmythe, that they had contributed$5,000.00 to him   and the large campaignsign for Smythe on their property.  Smythe

had challenged incumbent CommissionerMark Heirbrandt for the County Commis-sioners seat in District 3.  Heirbrandt, whosupports the project, won the primary overSmythe who opposed the project.

The meeting started off  a little heatedwhen Mr.  Alsop said  we put this projecttogether behind closed doors and they knownothing about it until Mr. Smythe met withthem.  I challenged Mr. Alsop by tellinghim there had been 26 public meetings onthis issue over the past 3 years, that it hadbeen reported repeatedly by all the newsmedia and that a letter had been sent direct-ly to Lockhart Cadillac.

As the meeting continued, on a verycordial basis, I agreed to bring the engi-neers, who would be working on theproject,  in for a meeting.  Mr. Alsop ex-pressed his appreciation for me stopping byas well as following up with another meet-ing.

All of this was me, going out of myway, to make sure the Dealership was beingtreated fairly.

I have received numerous e-mails sincethis article came out, thanking us for havingthe foresight to do something about thetraffic on SR 37.

As an elected official, we are torn apart,trying to do the right thing for the majorityof the people, yet also trying to have as littleimpact on those whose space we are tread-ing.

So to the Lockhart Dealership and allthe other business along this corridor, Iwant to personally assure you that we willdo everything possible to make this a posi-tive outcome of everyone.

Dillinger challenges “heatedexchange” article By FRED SWIFT

The Pope recently issued a paper onchanges in the Cath-olic Church con-cerning divorce.Our office frequent-ly has requests for a“church divorce” orencounters a clientwho has questionsconcerning theBible’s view of di-vorce. The typicalsituation in our of-

fice is where a spouse is married to analcoholic or is a spouse who is beingphysically abused. The victim spouse isconcerned about the biblical ramifica-tions of filing for divorce. Almost all citeto Matthew 19:6, which indicates divorceis not preferred and appears to be permit-ted only for sexual immorality.

We counsel them that Paul, in 1 Cor-inthians 7:15, also permits a spouse to befree from bondage if the unbelievingspouse departs. In 1 Corinthians 8:39, thespouse is also free from marriage bonds ifthe other spouse dies.

To have a “church divorce” or oneacceptable to God, then, a person mustfirst divorce for a permissible biblicalreason: (1) sexual immorality; (2) depar-ture of an unbelieving spouse; or (3)death of the other spouse.

Biblical “death” can refer to spiritualdeath as well as physical death. How doesspiritual death occur? A spouse couldfollow the mandates of Matthew 5 andMatthew 18. These passages provide aprocess to follow when you sin againstsomeone or someone else sins againstyou.

For example, if your spouse sinsagainst you, Matthew 18:15 directs you togo and tell your spouse’s fault to themprivately. (Spouse, your continued exces-sive drinking is unacceptable). If thespouse does not hear, take one or twowitnesses and repeat. Sometimes this isreferred to as an intervention. (Thespouse is told that continued excessivedrinking is unacceptable and solutions aresought). If the spouse refuses to listen tothe witnesses, take them before thechurch. If the spouse refuses to hear thechurch, let your spouse be to you like aheathen and a tax collector.

God gives everyone a choice. He setup the secular government and court sys-tem (Romans 13:1) so that when bothsides cannot agree to resolve problems inthe church under biblical principles, thepreferred method, they would have achoice to do so in another forum, ratherthan result to the law of the jungle.

In the case of the abusive or alcoholicspouse, if the spouse refuses to listen tothe church, they are excommunicated inone last attempt to bring them back to thefaith. If they fail to return to the faith, itcould be considered that they are spiritu-ally dead. The victim spouse can proceedwith a divorce in secular courts, havingsatisfied biblical requirements to be freeof the marriage covenant with God.

We work with each individual’s homechurch to make sure this procedure isconsistent with their theology and havefound many local churches accept theabove stated procedure. When both par-ties are willing to submit to the church’sauthority under biblical guidelines, thesuccess rate in preventing divorce is as-tonishingly good, which is the ultimategoal.

A discussion of church divorce

to see how the light could affect the mood,and saw new patterns in nature that I hadmissed.”

By RICHIE HALLReporter Sports EditorThe music world has been littered with

one-hit wonders for decades.Hamilton Heights didn't want to have

that label applied to its softball team. TheHuskies made their way through a season ofups and downs, but it all came together intheir own Class 3A sectional, and in theend, Heights was singing a victory songSaturday night.

The Huskies beat Yorktown 1-0 to de-fend its sectional championship. That willsend Heights back to the regional, where itwill play at Norwell in a re-match of lastyear's regional. First pitch is at 5:30 p.m.Tuesday.

Huskies coach Landi Lockwood saidthe goal of her team was to avoid that one-hit wonder, or fluke label.

"We were going to defend our champi-onship, no matter what, and the girlsworked hard all season," said Lockwood."We had ups and downs all season, but thiswas the payoff tonight."

As evidenced by the score, the gamewas a defensive battle. It took the Huskiesuntil the top of the sixth inning (they werethe designated away team) to push their runacross, which they did with perfect softballintuition.

Taylor Ewing got on base with a single,then Ashley Roberts stepped up andsmacked a double, which moved Ewing tothird. That brought up sophomore Jessica

Kaurich, who was the heroine of Heights'post-season run last year.

Kaurich did it again this season. She hitthe ball up the right side of the field, and theend result was a fielder's choice that sentEwing home to score.

"It just came down to the girls in theirheads deciding 'We're going to do this,' anddo their jobs at the plate and make thathappen," said Lockwood.

Roberts was 3-for-3 at the plate on Sat-urday. She also pitched a complete game,tossing five strikeouts. Both teams totaledfive hits on the night. It was the second yearin a row that Roberts allowed no runs in asectional championship game.

"Ashley Roberts was phenomenal to-night, she was phenomenal," said Lock-wood. "This was her game tonight. She did

it, she earned it and I gave all the credit inthe world to her."

"I couldn't do it alone," said Roberts,who said her team helped back her up. "It'soverwhelming that we could do it again, wecould pull it out. We've had a really roughseason, but I'm proud of each and every girlthat stepped on this field with me tonight."

Next up for the Huskies is the NorwellKnights, who led Heights in last year's re-gional before Kaurich slammed a two-runhome run in the bottom of the seventh togive the Huskies the championship.

"I'm sure they're pretty hungry for alittle payback," said Lockwood. "It's goingto be another fight, and that's what we gotto do. We just got to be ready for it. If we
