[Editor’s Note: Like most of the recipes she shared with our readers over the past couple of decades, Ellen Shultz’s Sunny Side Up columns are worth repeating. ]
Madge Sutton Van Horn moved to Alfred Station in 1942 and lived in the brick house next to the Country Store until she died. She nursed her husband, Harley Sutton, for nine years while he suffered from ALS. During this time she was the tax collector for the Town of Alfred. She taught math for one year at Alfred-Almond Central School and worked for several years for Ed Crandall in his jewelry store. Twenty years after Harley died she married Donald Van Horn.
She was a very active member of the Alfred Station SDB Church and spent many hours working at Camp Harley Sutton.
This recipe is a favorite of Madge’s children and grandchildren.
It must be served at all family holiday gatherings.

INTERNET AND BROADBAND – CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
Only 25 years ago the Internet was virtually unknown, and something that few people actually used. Today it is an important part of almost every- one’s life, and is a crucial factor in many jobs and activities. Today the Internet is ubiquitous and growing in importance. Unfortunately, it is much more prevalent (and cheaper) in urban and subur- ban areas than it is in rural areas. This situation has been referred to as the “digital divide.” Those with high speed Internet access, or Broadband, are the
“haves,” while those lacking high speed Internet access are the “have-nots.” Most of Allegany County falls into the latter category. Both the State and federal governments have recognized this un- acceptable situation. Various initiatives have been established to help rural areas address this situa- tion.
Internet technology is expensive and is evolv- ing rapidly. Companies that provide high speed In- ternet service (Broadband) must make costly investments to provide their services to customers.
In urban and suburban areas they can do this and make a profit because there are numerous potential customers. In rural areas those costs are typically greater because of the larger areas that must be served. However, there are fewer potential cus- tomers available. As a result, the major Broadband companies have focused their efforts in urban and suburban neighborhoods. With only a few excep- tions, rural areas are typically left with inadequate options for Broadband service. Ironically we also pay more for that poorer service than urban or sub- urban areas. Because of the financial barriers, most Broadband providers have decided to avoid rural areas. We have been left in a service vacuum.
In an effort to fill this vacuum New York State provided some grants for both public and private entities. Not surprisingly, Broadband companies like Time Warner Cable, AT&T, and Verizon ap- plied for grants to improve service in suburban areas. However, those private companies have not applied for grants to serve rural areas. Allegany County was one of the few rural municipalities to
apply for such a grant. We received an $800,000 grant in 2014, conditioned upon us matching it with $200,000. Last week we began construction on a network that will bring Broadband service to most rural areas within the County.
Allegany County covers approximately 1,030 square miles, with a total population of about 49,000 residents. Much of that area is hilly or mountainous. Getting Broadband service to cus- tomers in remote and sparsely populated areas is a challenge. (This is one of the reasons that private companies have chosen to skip over these areas.) The usual Broadband delivery technologies (fiber- optic cable and co-axial cable) are not financially viable in our area. For that reason the County Broadband System will utilize wireless (radio) technology. This has been successfully imple- mented in other rural areas, though not in NYS. In addition, to save money the County will operate its Broadband System on the same equipment that the E-911 Dispatch System uses. This innovative approach has dramatically reduced the cost of our Broadband System. When it is completed this sys- tem will offer 911 coverage and Broadband service to most county residents and businesses.
Construction on the new 911 towers and ra- dios began last week. We anticipate that most con- struction work will be completed by October 2015.
The Broadband system should be largely com- pleted by early 2016. Service to rural residences and businesses can begin this fall, when portions of the construction work are completed.
The Broadband program represents an entirely new venture and challenge for Allegany County.
The Legislature must make many decisions over the next several months regarding exactly how this program will work. The Committee that I chair has proposed that a Local Development Corporation (“LDC”) be established to manage the Broadband system. That LDC would contract with Wireless Internet Service Providers (“WISPs”) that would actually hook-up and serve consumers. This sys- tem should provide high quality Broadband at an affordable price. Stay tuned for additional infor- mation about these exciting developments.

Flagging Fatherhood
This patriotic patriarch would sure have been excited If Father’s Day and Flag Day had exactly coincided.
However, such concurrence is impossible, I fear:
One day apart’s the closest they can get—did that last year.
But regardless, we should answer for their relevance, if asked.
Well, one’s a Day to honor ancient relics of the past,
Which few recall the meaning of, or even whence they came.
And the other? Well…that other Day is just about the same!

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
Dear Editor,
If you are hitting the road this summer, you will have lots of company. With millions of Americans taking road trips, the last thing you need is car trouble.
A simple pre-trip driveway vehi- cle inspection helps ensure a safe and stress-free journey.
• Check all fluids, including engine oil, power steering and brake and transmission, as well as windshield washer solvent and antifreeze/coolant.
• Check the hoses and belts that can become cracked, brittle, frayed, loose or show signs of excessive wear. These are critical to the proper functioning of the electrical system, air condition- ing, power steering and the cool- ing system.
• Check the tires, including tire pressure and tread. Uneven wear indicates a need for wheel align- ment. Tires should also be checked for bulges and bald spots.
• Check the wipers and light- ing so that you can see and be seen. Check that all interior and exterior lighting is working prop- erly and inspect and replace worn wiper blades so you can see clearly when driving during pre- cipitation. Keep the reservoir filled with solvent.
If you find your vehicle needs service, repairs can be performed before your drive begins. The

To the Editor:
Many thanks to recent MFA graduate of the Ceramics College Henry Crissman and his crew of assistants who made the Terra Cotta Office Building and grounds come alive during the week of May 4-10.
Henry's Mobile Anagama Company project, informed by resources from the AU Herrick Library Archives, the Ceramics College, and ASC Hinkle Li- brary Jean B. Lang WNY Histor-
ical Collection, raised $634.50, which was donated to the Alfred Historical Society to be used for the repair and preservation of the unique historic structure.
To the many contributing local artists, area residents, visitors, students, and all who shared in and enjoyed this event, thank you for your participation and your generosity.
Linda Lewandowski Alfred

ALFRED–A project by M. Michelle Illumi- nato, associate professor in the Freshman Foun- dation art program, School of Art and Design at Alfred University (AU), is one of four featured public art works on view through Sunday, June 14, at the Three Rivers Arts Festival, Pittsburgh.
Exhibition notes explain Illuminato’s “Lost + Found Factory” project, commissioned by the festival: “We have all lost something that we wish we hadn’t. Sometimes we wish it so much that the object is etched in our minds, a memory that materializes when we see a similar item or recall a particular time or place. The Lost + Found Factory will work to return that lost arti- cle to you.
“During the Festival, the public is invited to visit the Lost & Found Factory and to share de- scriptions of favorite items they have lost. Then they can watch as artists work to recreate these items and return them back to the original own- ers.”
The “Factory” will be open from noon-7 p.m.
each day of the festival. The project can be found in downtown Pittsburgh in the former Vis- itor’s Center kiosk. Illuminato and workers, in- cluding several AU students, alumni, and Laurel Jay Carpenter, associate professor of art, will fa- cilitate the process of recording descriptions of lost items, remaking the items, displaying the objects, and finally redistributing them to the
“original owners.” As the project unfolds over the course of the festival, the images of the recreated “found” objects will be documented alongside their stories online.
The Three Rivers Arts Festival includes nu- merous art, dance, music, and theater events.
Illuminato earned a master of fine arts degree in sculpture, public art, and social practice from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a bachelor of fine arts degree, in sculpture, site, and public art from Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh.
