Mason City dentist Jay Lala in the building that once housed
Emerson s on Main. Lala is restoring the structure and opening
a satellite office in Osage.
The longtime Mason City dentist, after 28 years in the business, is expanding his practice to Osage. When his friend Ken Emerson decided to move his clothing store across Main Street, it provided Lala with an opportunity to gather more patients under his care.
If there is one word Lala would use to describe the dental arts, it is âfun.â He is known for his vast wardrobe of Hawaiian shirts; after getting married in Hawaii, his wardrobe has grown by 150, because they are comfortable, he says, and he does not need to tuck them in.

Mason City school board to vote on a new era in student athletics
Proposal to change athletic conferences on Monday s agenda.

The
agenda for Monday s meeting has a resolution ending Mason City s membership in the current Central Iowa Metropolitan League (CIML) with the conclusion of the 2021-2022 school year. Mason City is currently in discussions about a new athletic conference with Marshalltown, Fort Dodge, Ames, Ottumwa, Des Moines East, Des Moines North, Des Moines Hoover, Des Moines Lincoln and Des Moines Roosevelt.
The resolution says the CIML lacks parity among its current member schools and therefore results in contest between teams that are competitively mismatched, and this has the effect of discouraging participation of students from those schools including Mason City that have suffered from this lack of parity.
