Notes:

Jim enlisted in the US Army during World War II and served in the European theatre. Immediately after enlistment they sent him to weather school at Northwestern University, near Chicago. That's when he renewed his Cornell College 'acquaintance' with Marcella Kouba. After he graduated from weather school, he was sent to England and crossed the English channel shortly after "D Day", and was surrounded during the 'Battle of the Bulge". He was in the 21st Weather Squadron. His service number was D857141. They were married in King Memorial Chapel on the campus of Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, where they both graduated prior to the war. His rank at discharge was Captain. He then went to work for the US Weather Bureau.

They first moved to Kansas City, MO, Des Moines, IA, Washington, DC, Omaha, NE and finally to Columbia, MO. After he retired from the weather bureau he started a private weather consulting firm predicting worldwide agricultural crop yields using computers and satellite weather data. These were very valuable to our country (and the CIA) during the Cold War, as he could tell from the satellite data how bad the crops were in Russia.

History of the 21st Weather Squadron:

Activated at Bradley Field, Conn., in April 1943, the 21st Weather Squadron quickly moved overseas and was assigned to the 9th Air Force in October of the same year. With the purpose of providing dedicated meteorological intelligence to ground units, the 21st WS became the first fully deployable weather squadron in history with men trained specifically for combat; during Operation Overlord, 14 mobile weather units deployed 30 men in support of the ground troops. Following the Normandy invasion, Bronze Stars were awarded to 81 servicemen of the 21st WS.

The unit also earned the European-African-Middle-Eastern service streamer and three additional campaign streamers in Northern France, Rheinland, and Central Europe, for their unparalleled support to the war fighter.

A couple details. Frederick Walter McQuigg died in Sioux Falls, SD on February 2, 1965. It was horribly cold and icy and Linda's dad drove all day from Columbia to get there and Pop died before he could make it. He was so tired but we were so tired and glad to see him (because we waited a long time for him) and he barely got in the door of that waiting room and we jumped and said, "Oh, he is already dead!" and he just about collapsed like he had been punctured. We all got in our cars and drove to the air port in Sioux City, IA to meet Jerry flying in from KC. From Sioux City on to Schaller, it was Dottie and Jerry in their car (Dottie had been staying in Sioux Falls with Granny Mac for weeks while Pop died), Jim and Granny Mac in his car and me in mine (I had driven over from Owatonna, MN and stayed with them because he was so bad) on sheer ice. It was awful. Just don't know if you have ever heard that story. - Ruthie McQuigg

Crystal Wedding

The friends of Mr. and Mrs. George B. Gould, to the number of fifty-two gathered at their pleasant commodious home in Eden township Friday evening, Dec. 19, to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of their wedding day. Mr. and Mrs. Gould were evidently not expecting to entertain friends that evening but soon adjusted themselves to circumstances and a very enjoyable time followed. After a bountiful supper Mr. John W. Martin in a neat little speech presented to Mr. and Mrs. Gould in behalf of their many friends, two beautiful easy chairs, a dinner sett composed of 112 pieces, a nice water sett, a pickle castor and $2.20 in money. Mr. Gould responded in a few feeling words and invited all to come again, singly or enmasse. It was noted that none of the Schaller friends were present although many of their names were on the list of contributors which was presented by Mrs. M. E. Wright to the happy pair.

Mrs. Gould's friends from Wisconsin greatly wished to be present but were unable to come although her father, Mr. Borah was respresented on the list by a $2.00 contribution.

We hope that Mr. and Mrs. Gould may live to celebrate their golden wedding and that happiness and prosperity may ever be theirs.

GEORGE B. GOULD.

This is the era of the installation and use of modern machinery and the
prolific use of the automobile in lightening the former heavy task which fell
to the lot of the average farmer. No one knows the value of labor saving
machinery better than the modern farmer. In every department of his work,
from plowing the land to harvesting the crops, inventive genius has sought
to save him time, expense and labor, and, at a reduced cost, increase and
improve his products and add to the productive value of his land. As a re-
sult, the farm of toda}-, when completely erjuipped, affords its owner an ease
and facility of operation that his father before him would never have dreamed
was possible. The automobile, too, has done much to add to the ease and
profit of farm life and work. Time is money to the farmer as much as to
the man in any other walk of life. To "hitch up" and drive to the nearest
town takes time; the automobile saves three-fourths of it. It serves, too,
in carrying small produce to market and it affords a quicker means of trans-
portation from one part of the farm to another than the horse affords. Ap-
parently the most highly developed industry in Sac county and western Iowa
akin to the developm.ent of agriculture and indicative of the great prosperity
of the region is the automobile business. No town is too small to afford its
garage and place of distribution, and some of them boast several finelv equip-
ped sales rooms and repair departments. In this connection we find that an
agriculturist, George B. Gould, quick to see to what extent this industry
would be developed on account of the demands of the times, established the
Gould automobile sales rooms and garage in Schaller in 191 1. The fore-
sight and business acumen which made him a successful farmer has alike
enabled him to make a success of this business venture. In the fall of 1912
he began the erection of a large concrete structure, thirty-five bv seventv-five
feet in dimension, for a sales room, with a modernly equipped repair shop
twenty-five by fifty feet in extent, and completed the building in May, 1913.
Three men are employed. This concern sells such well known makes as the Jeffrey line, which includes the Ramljler and the New Jeffrey car. the Moon, the Overland and the Maxwell.

George B. Gould was born June 6, 1855, in Grant county. Wisconsin,
the son of Chauncey and Flavia A. (Brusseau) Gould. His father was a
native of, Vermont and his mother is a native of Canada, of French ancestry.
Her father was a Frenchman, who married a lady of English birth.
Chauncey Gould left Vermont in about the year 1853, journeyed to Wiscon-
sin and settled on a farm in Grant county. In 1885 he migrated to Sac county so as to be in the proximity of his son George. For some years he resided on a farm near Schaller and then retired to the town. He died in December, 1900. Mrs. Gould resides with her daughter in Correctionville, Iowa, and is over eighty years of age. Two children were born to them, George B. with whom this narrative deals, and Mrs. Emma Borah, who resides on a farm about four miles from Correctionville.

He whose name forms the caption of this review came to Sac county in
the month of May, 1876, while not yet of age, and settled on three- hundred
and twenty acres of land in section 33, Eden township, paying therefor five
dollars and forty cents an acre, the year previous to his real settlement in the
county. His first dwelling place was a small house sixteen by twenty-four
feet in dimension, which he has twice remodeled from the original plan. It
is a remarkable fact and a typical illustration of the great rise in land values
that the annual rental which Mr. Gould now receives from this farm is more
than the original cost, the rental being eight dollars an acre. Later he bought
six hundred and forty acres additional at seven dollars and fifty cents an acre,
in Minnesota, which has since become very valuable. He resided on his Eden
township farm for twenty-five years and in 1903 he removed to Schaller.

Mr. Gould is a Progressive Republican politically. While not a member
of any church, he firmly believes in the usefulness of church organizations
as having an excellent moral effect in any community and is a liberal giver
to the cause of religion. The members of his family are attendants at the
Methodist Episcopal church. He is a member of the Ancient Free and
Accepted Masons and the Modern Woodmen.

Mr. Gould has been twice married. His first wife was Margaret Borah,
of Wisconsin, whom he espoused in 1875, and who died in 1891 at the age of
thirty-three years, leaving three children: Samuel C, a dentist in Ashton,
Illinois: Pearl L., wife of Professor Eells, superintendent of the Rolfe, Iowa,
public schools : Margaret, whose birth was the unfortunate time of her
mother's death, and who likewise died in 19 11 at the age of twenty years.
Mr. Gould was again married on December 4, 1895, to Ella Parrott, a lady

of English nativity and who came to America with her parents when thirteen
years of age and settled at Dyersville, Iowa, and later came to Schaller. One
child has blessed this union, Doris A., who is a student in the Schaller high
school. Pronounced attainments and recognized ability in two well defined
and important lines, in each of which he has been successful, characterizes

George B. Gould, who would have been 90 June 26, died his home here Tuesday afternoon following a short illness. The funeral will be this afternoon at 2:30 at the home of his son-in-law and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter McQuigg. Rev. Moore G. Bell of the First Presbyterian Church, his pastor, will conduct the service. Burial arrangements are in charge of the George S. Knowles funeral home.
Schaller second oldest resident, Mr. Gould came here when he was 21 from Grant Co., WI his father, Chauncy Gould, had brought land Eden Twp. before there was a town here and his son came to look after it for him bringing his bride, nee Margaret Borah. The farm was grassland and he found here quail and prairie chickens in abundance.
Mrs. Gould passed away in 1893. Four children were born to this union, all are deceased. They were Dr. Samuel C. Gould of Madison, WI. Maude who died in infancy; Mrs. Harry Pearl Eells of Cedar Falls; and Margaret who died at 19.
Five years later, Mr. Gould married miss Ella Perrott, who died in 1925. Mrs. Walter Doris McQuigg is the only child of this marriage.
Later, Mr. Gould married Miss Minnie Cameron, of Ontario Canada, who survives him.
Farmer and businessman, Mr. Gould made many contributions to the growth of this community, his continuous home, some 70 years. He was a member of the Schaller Presbyterian Church, a 32nd degree Mason, member of the Eastern Star and attended all of them regularly as that long as his health permitted.
Besides the survivor and widow and daughter, there are several grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

We understand that the contract for putting up the bank building of Messrs KOCH Bros. of this place has been let to Mr. Cornelius PERROTT who will commence the work as soon as the weather will permit. The building will be
22x50 feet in size, 23 feet high with a fine brick front, with rustic cut stone dressing and a cornice of galvanized iron over hte top about four feet in height. This will without doubt be the finest building as far as workmanship and
elegance of design is concerned, in the city, and will be a lasting ornament to the town.
