CP Holiday Train to benefit local

food pantries with stops in both
Lansing and New Albin this year
Residents and visitors of
Allamakee County will get
twice as many chances to see
the Canadian Pacific Holiday
Train this year, as the holiday
spectacle on rails will make its
way up the western edge of
the Mississippi River Sunday,
December 4 to make a pair
of stops within the Allamakee
County borders. The Holiday
Train will be stopping in Lansing
that December 4 afternoon, at
approximately 4:50 p.m., and
again in New Albin a little over
an hour later, at approximately
6:15 p.m.
The
Canadian
Pacific
Holiday Train is adorned with
hundreds of thousands of lights
and serves as a stage for live
musical performances. Both
stops are scheduled to include
performances
by
country
music singer Kelly Prescott

and veteran blues singer Colin

James. Santa Claus will also
be making an appearance in
conjunction with the train stops.
The lighted holiday train will
be stopping across from the
Sports Complex in Lansing
located
on
South
Front
Street. The performances and
presentations taking place
during the trains stop in Lansing
are scheduled to take place
from 5-5:30 p.m. Santa Claus
will be in attendance during the
stop in Lansing, and Lansing
Main Street Matters will also
be offering hot chocolate and
other refreshments during the
event.
The stop in New Albin will
take place in the parking lot
described as being located
adjacent to the railroad tracks
along Railroad Street (Highway
26) between Ross Avenue and

Oak Street. Performances and

presentations are scheduled to
take place from 6:15-6:30 p.m.
in New Albin. In conjunction
with the arrival of the Holiday
Train, free hot cocoa, caroling
and a Christmas tree lighting
will take place in a Light Up
New Albin celebration.
The Lansing and New Albin
locations will be among nine
stops the train will be making in
Iowa this holiday season. Prior
to its arrival in Lansing, the train
will be stopping in Marquette,
and after the New Albin stop
the train will depart for its next
destination in La Crescent, MN,
its final stop for that December
4 date.
The Holiday Train visits
will help the community and
surrounding area collect food
and money for local food
pantries. Food and monetary

The history of holiday lights

Courtesy of
Metro Creative Editorials
Holiday celebrants employ
holiday lights in various ways.
Certain individuals may be
content to hang lights on their
Christmas trees and call their
decorating complete. Others
may get their holiday jollies
by making sure each square
inch of their home is covered
in twinkling lights. Still, other
people prefer the more subdued
effect of lights framing one
picture window of the house.
The tradition of Christmas
lights stretches back to early
modern Germany when people
used candles to decorate
Christmas trees in Christian
homes. Those candles were
harbingers of what would come
when electric lights replaced
gas and other open flame
illuminating devices that were
commonplace prior to the 20th
century.

Thomas Edison, the inventor

of the first successful practical
light bulb, also created the
first strand of electric lights
that would be used in holiday
decorating. By 1880, Edison
had standard incandescent
light bulbs well sorted out
and desired a way to better
advertise his invention, so
he decided to make the most
of the holiday season and
put his light bulbs on display.
According to a 2003 article in
American Heritage magazine
titled The Wizard of Your
Christmas Tree, Edison strung
incandescent bulbs all around
the compound of his Menlo
Park, NJ, laboratory. Edison
constructed
an
eight-mile
underground wiring system in
order to power this grand light
display. Because the laboratory
was
situated
along
the
railroad that passed between
Manhattan and Philadelphia,
thousands of people were able

to see the display.

The concept of electric
holiday lights took a bit of time
to catch on. Edisons friend and
associate Edward Johnson was
tasked with stringing together
colored lights in 1882 and
placing them on an evergreen
tree. Johnson hand-wired 80
red, white and blue light bulbs.
In 1895, President Grover
Cleveland requested the White
House family Christmas tree
be illuminated by multi-colored
electric light bulbs.
In 1903, when General
Electric began to offer preassembled kits of holiday lights,
stringed lights were reserved
for the wealthy and electrically
savvy. For example, in 1903 a
single string of electric lights
cost $12, or around $300 today.
It would take several more
years before holiday lights
became a national tradition.
On Christmas Eve 1923,
President Calvin Coolidge

began the countrys celebration

of Christmas by lighting the
National Christmas Tree on
the Ellipse located south of the
White House with 3,000 electric
lights.
Today, illuminated strands

of lights have become a large

part of holiday celebrations and
have even been adopted for
use during various year-round
events. Such lights can be a
beautiful and festive addition to
many celebrations.

Contest is open to boys and girls up to age 12.

Tips to prolong the life of your Christmas tree

Courtesy of
Metro Creative Editorials
Christmas trees are symbols
of the holiday season and the
spirit of giving that the season
champions. Choosing and
decorating a Christmas tree is
a tradition for many families,
and depending on the trees
they choose, families may have
some work to do to keep their
trees glowing all season long.
Artificial Christmas trees
require little, if any, maintenance.
But live Christmas trees, which
some people feel are more
authentic and welcoming than
their artificial counterparts,
require daily maintenance. In
addition to supplying the tree
with water at least once per
day, live Christmas tree owners
can take these steps to prolong
the life of their trees.
Protect the tree on the

way home. Your tree might be

vulnerable to damage as you
transport it from the farm to your
living room. Unwrapped trees
placed atop vehicles can be
dried out by the wind. Prevent
wind damage by wrapping the
tree if you plan to place it atop
your vehicle. If possible, lay the
tree in the bed of a pickup truck
and close the cover over the
bed. If you dont have access
to a pickup truck but can use
a minivan or SUV to transport
your tree, see if the tree fits
inside your vehicle. If it doesnt,
wrap it tightly in a blanket or
another form of cover, making
sure the cover wont blow off in
the wind when you hit the open
road.
Have the tree cut before
you take it off the lot. If you
typically purchase your tree
from a florist or tree lot instead
of a tree farm, then remember

BLACK FRIDAY
WEEKEND

to ask the seller to recut the

stem of the tree before you take
it home. Tree farm trees are
freshly cut, but trees sold away
from the farm might have been
chopped down weeks before

Water the tree often.

Christmas trees need lots
of water to make it through
the season. You may notice
the water in the tree stand
disappears quickly when you
first bring the tree home. Thats
because freshly cut trees will
consume more water than trees
that were cut several weeks
ago. As the season goes on
and the trees vascular system
begins to clog, you might not
need to water the tree as
much as you did when you first
brought it home. But check the
trees water stand twice per day
when you first bring it home,
refilling the stand with water
whenever it seems necessary
to do so.
A few tricks of the trade
can help holiday celebrants
maintain lush, awe-inspiring
Christmas trees throughout the
holiday season.

they are ultimately sold. During

the interval between being cut
down and sold, trees vascular
systems can clog and prevent
the tree from getting the water
it needs to survive the season.
A fresh cut of the stem unclogs
the system and ensures the
tree will be able to consume
water.
Avoid placing the tree
near heaters or drafty
windows. Many people
know that placing a live
tree near a potentially
hot heating vent
poses a fire hazard.
But doing so also

Study shows local home improvement

what you buy. Purchasing gifts

this holiday season can put

twice as much money toward
local community schools, local
charities, sports teams and
more.
For those planning to
purchase power equipment for
someone on their gift list, buying
from an independent dealer
results in a 71-percent increase
in local economic activity
compared to purchasing similar
equipment from major chain
stores, according to the study.
That analysis further shows that
for every $500 spent on gifts at
local home improvement stores
this holiday season, $115 will
stay in the local community. If
that same amount is spent at
a big-box store, the community
loses nearly half of that money.
Additionally, if spending is
shifted to independent stores
instead of chains for one whole
year, $277,196 would stay in

from local home improvement

stores, such as those in the
small hometowns of northeast
Iowa, this holiday season will
make an important economic
impact on your hometown
community.
Economic
analysis
has
shown that nearly twice as much
money spent at a locally-owned
home improvement store will
stay in the local community
compared to dollars spent
at a big-box store. A recent
study sponsored by the North
American Retail Hardware
Association
(NRHA)
and
Independent We Stand, and
conducted by Civic Economics,
shows that a dollar spent at
a local home improvement
business generates 97 percent
more local economic activity
than a dollar spent at a bigbox store. This statistic means
that your shopping decisions

the local community.

The potential national impact
of shopping at local home
improvement stores is even
bigger. Together, the two largest
national home center chains
sold $114 billion in goods in
2013. If only 10 percent of
that business had gone to
independent stores throughout
the country, hometowns, like
those in northeast Iowa, across
the U.S. would have collectively
seen a $1.3 billion increase in
economic activity.
Choose to be part of
something bigger this holiday
season by shopping at local
home improvement stores.
Keep your money where
your house is and choose
your
hometown
for
the
holidays. For more information

Lansing Christmas Ornament

Every
two
years
the
Lansing
United
Methodist
Sunday school offers for sale
a Christmas ornament. With
the closing of the Blumenthal
Lansing Button Company this
past year it was the ideal time
to commemorate the event on
our 2015-2016 year. In 1997
the Turner Pearl Button Factory
was highlighted on the Lansing
ornament with a picture of
the predecessor company,
started by Captain J. M. Turner.
Eventually Captain Turner
turned his company, then
known as the Lansing Button
Works, over to his grandson
L.T. Hufschmidt.
By the early 1930s the
company discontinued cutting
buttons from clam shells
and concentrated on selling
carded buttons. Hufschmidt
invented the carding machine
used in his business as well
as moving his business into
the South Lansing building
presently owned by Brennan

Construction Co.
The 2016 picture on the
Christmas ornaments shows
a young John Brophy (future
president of the company)
standing by the light pole at the
corner of South Front St. and
Valley Street. At this location,
Hufschmidts
business
expanded into making and
selling wooden and metal toys
by the millions. Many people in
Lansing and the surrounding
area owed their livelihood
to him. Also at this time,
John Brophy, Hufschmidts
nephew, began to take over
management duties.
When the old Ford Garage
closed on Lansings Main
Street, the company then
known as Lansing Company,
Inc. moved into that location. By
the mid 1950s they employed
150 people. The 2015 side of
the commemorative ornament
shows a photo of the continuing
evolvement of the business.
The ornaments are available

for sale at the upcoming

Breakfast with Santa event
scheduled for November 26 at
the Lansing United Methodist
Church starting at 7:30 a.m. and
lasting until noon, and also at
the Red Geranium Gift Shop in
Lansing during open business
hours. The ornaments cost $10
each and with a limited number
available are expected to be
gone quickly.

and services offered has
changed throughout the years
due to new needs, issues
and realities that families
experience. This year marks
a continued evolution for the
organization, as it is embarking
on a new name and logo
heading into 2017.
The organization is pleased
to announce that Helping

remarks, While this is a small
change, it is important to note
the name now says exactly
what our team has been doing
since 1973 - We are here, in
your community, to help and
serve youth and families.
Along with this change,
community members will see
a new logo that represents a
circle of people accompanying
the new name. This visual
showcases how the agency
works: a group of people
working together for a common
cause. Helping Services cause

This exciting change comes
at the time when Helping
Services is busy preparing
for Holiday Lights, the largest
annual fundraising activity
for the organization, hosted
at Decorah Pulpit Rock
Campground. Helping Services
welcomes everyone to visit the
Lights, starting with a walkthrough night Wednesday,
November 23, from 5 to 7
p.m. This is the only day of the
year that the public has the
opportunity to walk through the
Lights.
Following the walk-through
night, the Lights will be
available to drive through,
starting
November
23,
and open every night until
December 25 from 5-9 p.m.
A live fireworks display will be
featured November 26. And

the joy of the Lights!
