The smiling, eager face that area residents have been seeing recently, in settings where veterinarians are needed, is that
of German Veterinary medicine student, Eva MAIMER, 25. She is an intern in the practice of Dr. Dan WEDDLE, Dr. Keith
MILLER and Dr. Steve GOFF of Grand City, MO at the Hilltop Veterinary Clinic. She arrived from Germany April 5 and will
leave May 20. During her time here she hwas been having many new experiences, working under the supervision of Dr.
WEDDLE, as she helps farm families and others with small animals with whom she comes in contact in her work-a-day
world. Eva, a student at the University of Geissen, Germany (located in central Germany), has served to other six-week
interships, one in France and one in Germany. These experiences were mostly as an observer.
Years after the disappearance of this fixture in the American landscape, Burma-Shave type signs are making a
comeback and Mount Ayr will be Iowa's only site for one set of the signs. The five signs that will give the
message above have arrived in Mount Ayr and will be set up along Highway 2 on the Case-IH property west of
Mount Ayr as soon as permission is received from the Iowa Department of Transportaiton.
In 1996 Iowa will be observing its sesquicentennial year of statehood. To celebrate the year and promote Iowa, 300
bicycle riders, including two former Kellerton residents, will be riding from Long Beach, CA to Washington, D.C. The
ride will begin May 28 at Long Beach and concluded Spet. 4, on Labor Day, on the Capitol steps. Two former Kellerton
residents, John JACKSON and Don MEADOWS, will be two of the riders.
