On July 5, 1858, the first shoe manufacturing machine was patented in Massachusetts. Come along with Tidbits as we wear shoes!

IN THE BEGINNING• A slipshoe was an old word for a slipper, comfortable

footwear for use in the home. People who wore these informal slippers in public places instead of the regular shoes were said to be “slipshod.” Now it means anything done in a careless fashion.

• When horses are “rough-shod” they have shoes on which have the ends of the nails sticking out. This gives the horse more traction, but it tears up the ground the animal travels over. When someone “rides rough-shod” over another person, they are trampling the ground beneath them without caring.

• Wooden shoes called “sabots” were popular in days gone by because they were cheaper than leather shoes. They gave us our word “sabotage.” One story is that when workers went on strike, they would throw their “sabots” into the factory’s machinery, ruining the gears

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Help! I went to feed my goldfish, “Sparks,” this morning, and he was having trouble swimming. It’s almost like he’s swim-ming sideways. What’s wrong with him? -- New to Aquariums in Oakland, California

DEAR NEWBIE: What’s happening is most likely a worrying condition commonly called “swim bladder disease.” While it’s not precisely a disease, it can happen for a couple of reasons, and you need to take action immediately.

A change in the water’s pH, for one, can cause your goldfish almost immediate distress. If you re-cently changed the water or cleaned the tank, or if you haven’t done either in a while, that pH balance may be the culprit.

Change the water again, paying close attention to the water conditioner you’re adding, and making sure to match the temperature of the new water with that of the old to prevent stressing out Sparks.

The other possibility is diet. When fed nothing but dried pellets, or fed too much, fish can get constipated or bloated. That can manifest as distressed swimming -- like swimming sideways, or even upside down.

Don’t feed Sparks anything for two or three days. Then, start with a low-protein food -- many aquarium owners recommend chopping a frozen pea into tiny bits and feeding the fish.

Once Sparks recovers, watch him carefully in case he develops an illness, like white spot disease (also known as ich), which can happen when fish are stressed. And look into joining an aquarium or nearby goldfish owners club so you can learn about keeping your fish healthy.

• Use a carabiner clip to hold the handles of gro-cery bags together. They will roll about less in the trunk and are easier to carry into the house when you get home.• “Many people keep some pet food outdoors. If you have prob-lems with ants in your pet’s food if feeding outside, you will like this trick: Place the bowl of food into a larger pan filled with wa-ter. The ants can’t cross it, and it has the added bonus of being another source of water for the

animals. Be sure to change it frequently.” -- P.Y. in Alabama• “We unexpectedly had friends visit with their granddaughter. Since it was unplanned, and we aren’t used to little kids, we were unprepared. My quick-thinking husband split open a garbage bag to use as a protective liner on the bed in case of

an accident.” -- D.D. in Oregon• Witch hazel is an old remedy for bruises and bumps. You can find it in the first-aid aisle by the per-oxide and rubbing alcohol. Sim-ply moisten a folded paper towel, and park it right on the bump (never near the eyes or mouth).

It prevents bruising and can lessen swelling in some cases.

• Need to cross out a note so nobody can read it? Take this tip to the scratch pad: Instead of scrib-bling over something to be crossed out, write random letters over your words until the whole thing is illegible.• “File this under you CAN teach an old dog new tricks: While watching videos on a cellphone with my daughter, I found out that a pair of fold-ed sunglasses makes a fantastic stand.” -- C.E. in Maine

The community of Estelline, named after the daughter of a Federal judge, was incorporated in 1882. Estelline, which means “Little Star” is located on U.S. Hwy. 28, seven miles west of Interstate 29. Like many Midwest communities, the early days of Estelline were based on the arrival of the railroad. The entrepreneurial spirit of this com-munity was alive in the early 1900’s as a creamery was built to meet the needs of the growing community. Progressive minded farmers took advantage of the opportunity by selling cream locally in an effort to maintain a more prosperous outlet for their products.

• On July 16, 1863, the draft riots enter their fourth day in New York City

in response to the Enrollment Act, which allowed wealthier citizens to pay $300 to avoid military duty. More than 1,000 people died in the violence, which was only con-tained by the arrival of Union troops from the battlefield at Gettysburg.• On July 19, 1879, Doc Holliday kills a man for shooting up his saloon. Despite his reputation as a deadly gunslinger, Doc Holliday engaged in just eight shootouts and killed only two men. The second was at the O.K. Corral in 1881. • On July 17, 1944, an ammunition ship explodes while being loaded in Port Chicago, Califor-nia, killing 332 people. Poor procedures and lack of training led to the disaster. The blasts were felt as far away as Nevada.

• On July 15, 1971, President Richard Nixon stuns the nation by announcing that he will visit commu-nist China. Since the Communists came to power in China in 1949, Nixon had been one of its most vocif-erous critics.

• On July 13, 1985, in London, Prince Charles and Princess Diana officially open Live Aid, a worldwide rock concert to raise money for the relief of famine-stricken Af-ricans. The 16-hour concert was globally linked by satellite to more than a billion viewers in 110 countries.• On July 14, 1995, the MP3 file compres-sion format is born, allowing music files small enough to be stored in bulk.• On July 18, 1999, New York Yankee Da-vid Cone pitches the 16th perfect game

in major-league history with a no-hit, no-walk vic-tory over the Montreal Expos. Cone needed only 88 pitches, 68 of them strikes, to set down 27 Expos in a row.

in an act of “sabotage.” Another more likely story is that because walking in wooden shoes is clunky and clumsy, and people wearing them tended to be bungling, therefore anything that was deliberately bungled up was “sabotaged.”

• Stiletto comes from the Italian word stilo meaning ‘dagger’ or ‘stylus.’ The contemporary stiletto was invented in the 1950s by Italian shoe designer Salvatore Ferragamo, who made his first pair for Marilyn Monroe using alligator hide. The styles back then were tame by today’s standards, with heels no taller than about 3 inches.

• The word “sneaker” is often attributed to an advertising agent who, in 1917, coined the term because the rubber sole made the shoe stealthy. The name “sneakers” referred to how quiet the rubber soles were on the ground, in contrast to noisy hard leather-soled dress shoes. Someone wearing sneakers could “sneak up” on you while someone wearing standard shoes could not.

• Australian fashion lore has it that Ugg really does stand for “ugly.” The sheepskin boots have been used by outdoorsy Australians for decades, but they were designed to be utilitarian rather than fashionable.

• Sandals were first worn in warm climates where the soles of the feet needed protection but the top of the feet needed to be cooler.

• Before the 19th century there was no left or right shoe, they were both identical.

• “Schubert” and “Schumann” both mean shoemaker. continued on page 11

• It was Italian novelist and philosopher Umberto Eco who made the following sage observation: “Fear prophets and those prepared to die for the truth, for as a rule they make many others die with them, often before them, and at times instead of them.”

• Iconic American rock band the Grateful Dead were originally known as the Warlocks.

• It takes an aver-age of 45 seconds in a microwave to make a Twinkie explode.

• Dedicated ex-perts at the Univer-sity of Connecticut

Alcohol Center conducted a study in which it was deter-mined that light beer is more likely to cause a hangover than dark beer is. Evidently, lighter beers tend to be more highly carbonated, which causes the alcohol to go through the system faster.

• It’s been reported that the Department of Defense has contracted a private lab to come up with a smell that’s so bad, it can be used to control unruly crowds.

• The 1942 film “Casablanca” is consistently considered

to be one of the best movies ever made. However, execu-tives at Warner Brothers didn’t expect much from the film and gave the producers an extremely small budget. In fact, they were so strapped for cash that the plane used in the movie’s iconic final scene was no more than a cardboard cutout.

• The original American Express card was not green, but purple. The now almost-ubiquitous green wasn’t in-troduced until 1969.

• Those who study such things say that if you have bad breath, you’re more likely to be bitten by a bat.

• In the 1970s, there was an epidemic of teenagers sniff-ing airplane glue to get high. In order to discourage this practice, the glue manufacturers began adding an intense oil of mustard to the formula.



Q: When do you go at red and stop at green? A: When you're eating a watermelon.

Q: How do men exercise at the beach? A: By sucking in their stomach every time they see a bikini.

Q: What did the pig say at the beach on a hot summer's day? A: I'm bacon!


Big Stone City, South Dakota is located at the foot of Big Stone Lake on the eastern side of Grant County.

The site of present day Big Stone City was first a Native American village called “Inkpa”, meaning “end of the lake”. In 1823, Major Long was sent out to explore the Minnesota and Red rivers, and particularly to determine the 49th parallel’s crossing of the Red River. On July 22 of that year, the party crossed the Whetstone near the present site of the town. The command then traveled up the lake and meet up with a band of Native Americans who had a village on the lake shore and a permanent residence on the big island in Big Stone Lake.

The first settlers were Moses Mireau and Solomon Roberts, who came in 1864 from New Ulm, Minnesota. They ran a store until 1873 and then began farming. Mr. Roberts married a Native American and one of their children, Leon, was the first child born in Grant County.

Big Stone City went through many interesting phases of settlement. One of the more dubious was a bit of a tiff with the residents of the newly erected town of Milbank, who wanted the county seat to be located there. After an 1881 episode involving “lost” county seat ballot boxes, shotguns and a fortified hay wagon, Judge

Kidder officially declared Milbank the county seat on February, 21, 1883.

Over the years, Big Stone City continued to flourish with many businesses serving the agriculture, tourism and manufacturing industries - including a canning factory and several granite quarries.

In 2010, Big Stone City celebrated its 125th Anniversary.

IF THE SHOE FITS• 88% of women wear shoes that are one or two sizes

too small, usually because they were once that size but haven’t been properly measured in years.

• The best time to try on shoes is usually at the end of the day when your feet are the most swollen.

• 43% of women confessed they have been at least moderately injured by shoes and 8% reported serious injuries like sprains or breaks.

MORE SHOE FACTS• Because of stringent new environmental laws in

Europe, the chemical composition of Barbie dolls changed to a softer plastic that doesn’t produce as many toxic gases when burned. To show that the new plastic was non-toxic to children who might swallow pieces of Barbie, they tied plastic Barbie shoes to tethers and fed them to pigs. The shoes were retrieved at various points in the digestive process and weighed to show that there was no absorption.

• In the 1950s DuPont decided leather was no good for shoes because leather wears out. DuPont invented an imitation leather that they claimed would never wear out. They called it Corfam. Not only did Corfam never wear out, it also never broke in. Shoes would not mold themselves to fit the wearer’s foot like leather does. Instead, the shoes “wore like armor plate,” according to “Time” magazine. Corfam did not breathe like leather, resulting in hot sweaty feet, and it was also more expensive than leather. DuPont lost over a quarter million dollars on Corfam shoes.

BET YOU DIDN’T KNOW• Some islanders used to use the skin of sea cucumbers

to make shoes.• Up until the 1700s, both men and women wore high

heels.• The world’s largest shoe size was 37AA worn by

Robert Wadlow back in 1940. Wadlow was the

tallest man in the world at 8 ft. 11 inches (2.7 meters).

• The average American woman buys about five pairs of shoes each year, and the average man, about two pairs.

• Cowboy boots have heels to help a rider’s feet stay in the stirrups.

• The inside of a banana peel is a great shoe polisher for patent leather.

• There are about a quarter million sweat glands in an average pair of feet.

Noteworthy Inventors

WILLIAM SCHOLL• William Scholl was born in LaPorte, Indiana in

1882 as one of 13 children. Even as a boy on a mid-western farm, William was interested in feet and shoes. As a teen he learned to make shoes, and then was apprenticed to a cobbler.

• When he moved to Chicago to set up his own shop, he noticed how many people had trouble with corns, bunions, and fallen arches, and he was appalled. So he worked as a shoe salesman by day and put himself through medical school by night, becoming a podiatrist in 1904 at the age of 22.

• That same year he patented an arch support which he peddled to other shoe salesmen, and its popularity gave him the capital he needed to invent more products for the feet, including remedies for corns, bunions, warts, calluses, foot odor, ingrown toenails, athlete’s foot, and many other foot-related ailments.

• He established a correspondence course to teach basic podiatry to shoe store clerks and sent a team of trained sales representatives around the country to deliver public lectures on proper foot care.

• In 1916 William Scholl sponsored the national Cinderella Foot Contest to find the most beautiful feet in the U.S. Ladies flocked to shoe stores by the thousands to have their feet measured and scrutinized, and pictures of the prize-winning feet were published in magazines and newspapers nationwide. Then the ladies flocked to drugstores by the thousands to buy Scholl’s products in order to make their feet look more beautiful.

• By the time he died in Chicago in 1968, William Scholl’s line of foot care products eventually expanded to include over a thousand different items. He left the company to his nephews, and it still flourishes today.Noteworthy Inventors

QUIZ: ADOLPH DASSLER• Born in Germany in 1900, Adolf Dassler, who

went by the nickname of Adi, loved tap dancing. He began creating his own tap shoes and got a lot of advice from his father, who worked in a shoe factory, manufacturing cleats for athletes. After he returned from service during World War I, he set up a cobbler’s shop in his mother’s laundry. Adi decided to go into the dance shoe business, and his brother joined him in the venture, which they

called the Dassler Brothers Shoe Company. • At the World Tap Dancing Competition in 1928,

Adi outfitted a number of the top competitors, and sales of his shoes climbed. During World War II, Adi was drafted into producing boots for soldiers.

• After the war, Adi and his brother split up and his brother started a sports shoe company called Puma. Adi renamed his own company, combining several letters from both his first and last names. He designed his company’s three-striped logo. He branched out and soon was making 30 different types of shoes for 11 different sports.

• Much of his success was due to his close contact with the athletes who wore his shoes, and his persistent presence at sporting events. Sales skyrocketed after Germany won the World Soccer Cup in 1954 with every member of the team wearing his shoes. He got many famous athletes to use his footwear including Jesse Owens and Muhammad Ali.

• Aggressive marketing was a cornerstone of his business, and he expanded into many different sporting goods. When Adi died in 1978, his son took over the business. Today the shoe company Adi founded is the second largest sportswear manufacturer in the world. Can you name it?

PECAN-CRUSTED CATFISHIt takes only three ingredients to create this

crunchy fish dish from our sister publication Women’s Day. Using mustard as a binder instead of egg, cover catfish fillets in chopped pecans and bake until the nuts are lightly toasted.

4 catfish fillets2 tablespoons honey mustard1 cup pecans

1. Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking pan with nonstick foil.

2. Finely chop pecans by hand or in food proces-sor. Spread on a sheet of wax paper. Put honey mus-tard in small cup; stir in 2 teaspoons water. Brush one side of fillets with mustard mixture, then press into chopped pecans. Place on baking pan.

3. Bake 10 to 14 minutes until pecans are lightly toasted and fish is just cooked through. Serves 4

Tips: Use tilapia fillets instead of catfish; use walnuts instead of pecans; stir a few drops of hot sauce into the mustard mixture. Serve with roasted sweet potato wedges and sauteed kale.

SOUTH DAKOTA QUICK FACTS• Perhaps the most significant fur trade/military fort on the western American frontier, Fort Pierre Chouteau was the largest (almost 300' square) and best equipped trading post in the northern Great Plains. Built in 1832 by John Jacob Astor's (1763-1848) American Fur Company as part of its expansion into the Upper Missouri region, the trading activities at the site exemplified the commercial alliance critical to the success of the fur business.
