Background: Memorial Day isa federal holiday observed on thelast Monday of May (May 28 in2012). Formerly known as Deco-

ration Day, it commemorates U.S.soldiers who died while in the mil-itary service. First enacted tohonor Union and Confederate sol-diers following the American CivilWar, it was extended after WorldWar I to honor Americans whohave died in all wars. The preferred name for the holi-day gradually changed from "Dec-oration Day" to "Memorial Day",which was first used in 1882. It didnot become more common untilafter World War II, and was notdeclared the official name by Fed-eral law until 1967. On June 28,1968, the Congress passed theUniform Holidays Bill, whichmoved three holidays from theirtraditional dates to a specifiedMonday in order to create a con-venient three-day weekend. The holidays included Washing-ton's Birthday, Veterans Day andMemorial Day. The change movedMemorial Day from its traditionalMay 30 date to the last Monday inMay. The law took effect at the fed-eral level in 1971. Many Americans observe Memo-rial Day by visiting cemeteries andmemorials. A national moment ofremembrance takes place at 3:00p.m. local time. Another tradition is to fly theflag of the United States at half-staff from dawn until noon localtime.

Re: Appreciation of Jeff Clark

Now that the Main Street project has been complete, I’d like to

express my thanks and appreciation to Wall City Public Works Di-

rector Jeff Clark for a job well done.

With business that was directly impacted by the construction

and traffic detours that were a necessary part of this project, I

couldn’t be more impressed by the final product, the new street

lighting in particular, and by Jeff ’s professional and forthright ap-

proach during the entire project. In particular, Jeff was very forth-

coming and candid when answering questions and responding to

concerns and never left me or my business hanging with unknowns

regarding deadlines and traffic issues. As with probably all the

businesses on Main Street, I felt some unfavorable financial impact

during the construction, but can accept the fact that it was really

a necessary “investment” in the Wall’s infrastructure and future.

Congratulations to Jeff Clark and staff on a job well done. Wall’s

residents will benefit from these improvements for generations to

come.

by Paul M. SadlerAccording to doctors at the

Good Samaritan RegionalMedical Center in Phoenix,Arizona, rattlesnakes thoughtto be dead can still strike, bite,and kill you. Doctors inPhoenix said they have alarge number of patients ad-mitted each year sufferingfrom bites from rattlersthought to be dead. Some-times the snakes were shotand their heads cutoff; but,the snake head retains a re-flex action. In fact, one studyshowed that snake headscould still make striking-typemotions up to sixty minutesafter decapitation.

Satan, that old Serpent,was defeated at Calvary—hishead was cut off. HebrewsChapter 2 says that our Sav-ior, by His death, destroyedhim who holds the power ofdeath. But for a season Satancan still strike and wound us.He can still hurt us and poisonour relationships and spreadhis deadly venom into ourhomes and lives.

Paul admonished theCorinthians to take great carein this area, “Lest Satanshould get an advantage ofus: for we are not ignorant ofhis devices” (II Cor. 2:11). Al-though this may have beentrue in the apostle’s day, weare not sure it is the casetoday. It seems to us thatmany believers are unawarethey are under attack. Satancan be very subtle and his de-

vices are well planned. Whilehis devices take on manyforms there is one in particularthat he uses quite effec-tively— worry! If the enemycan keep you off balance inthis area he can successfullyhinder your service for theLord.WORRY

“Be careful for nothing;but in every thing by prayerand supplication withthanksgiving let your re-quests be made knownunto God. And the peace ofGod, which passeth all un-derstanding, shall keepyour hearts and mindsthrough Christ Jesus.” —Phil. 4:6,7

Do you worry? I didn’t thinkso, but there are some whostruggle with this problem.Paul says, “Be careful fornothing.” In our modern daylanguage we would say,“Don’t worry about anything.”The Greek word behind theterm “careful” here is merim-nao, which means to pull indifferent directions, to distract.This is exactly what worry willdo to you—it willtear you apartboth emotionally and physi-cally. It can be one of theleading causes of ulcers,which is something else toworry about!

Worry always dwells on thefuture in regard to what mayor may not happen. It mullsover every worst-case sce-nario imaginable

ESTATE-PlANNINgcONSIDERATIONS

Richard Wahlstromwww.edwardjones.com

Now that another school year isdrawing to a close, your youngchildren are a step closer to theday when they’ll be heading off tocollege. Of course, as you’re proba-bly aware, higher educationdoesn’t come cheap — and thecosts seem to continuously climb.You can help your children — oreven your grandchildren — meetthese expenses by investing in a529 plan. And this college savingsvehicle offers estate-planning ben-efits. As a college funding vehicle, a529 plan offers some significantbenefits. When you contribute to a529 plan, your earnings accumu-late tax free, provided they areused for qualified higher educationexpenses. (Keep in mind, though,that 529 plan distributions notused for qualified expenses may besubject to federal and state incometax and a 10% IRS penalty.) Fur-thermore, your 529 plan contribu-tions may be deductible from yourstate taxes. However, 529 plansvary, so be sure to check with yourtax advisor. And the lifetime con-

tribution limits for 529 plans arequite generous; while these limitsvary by state, many plans allowcontributions well in excess of$200,000. Plus, a 529 plan is flexi-ble: If the child, grandchild orother beneficiary decides againstcollege, you can transfer the un-used funds to someone else, taxand penalty free. Now, let’s turn to a 529 plan’s es-tate-planning benefits. If youthink that you may need to reducethe size of your taxable estate, andyou also want to create a legacyyou may be able to enjoy duringyour lifetime, you may find thatthe 529 plan offers a solution foryou. When you establish and con-tribute to a 529 plan, the assetsleave your estate — but they don’tleave your control. If your namedbeneficiary decides against collegeand you don’t have another familymember to whom you can transferthe account — or if you simplychange your mind about fundingthe 529 plan — you can get yourmoney back at any time, although,as mentioned above, you’ll have topay taxes, and possibly a 10% IRSpenalty, on the earnings.

Your contributions to a 529 planalso qualify for the $13,000 annualgift tax exclusion, so you can givelarge amounts each year withoutincurring the gift tax. In the investment world, youcan find many vehicles that canhelp you make progress towardone goal. But it’s far less commonto find something that may giveyou a boost toward two. And whenthe two goals are helping a child orgrandchild go to college and lower-ing the value of your taxable estate— while still maintaining controlof your assets — you’ve got an in-vestment worth considering. Soconsult with your tax and financialadvisors to determine if a 529 planis right for you. And if it is, thinkabout taking action soon, becausethe more years you can contributeto a 529 plan, the better the out-look for both your future studentand your estate plans. Edward Jones, its employeesand financial advisors are not es-tate planners and cannot providetax or legal advice. You should con-sult your estate-planning attorneyor qualified tax advisor regardingyour situation.

We will have put another schoolyear to rest this week. We havehad some bumps along the way,but nothing that grew into any-thing real big. The annual awardsnight was held for the academicachievement and the winter/springactivities. Mrs. Sundall sharedwith the attendees that the 18 sen-iors had accumulated well over$270,000.00 worth of scholarships.This result is a direct reflection onthe hard work and time studentsand parents have put into the ap-plication process. Mrs. Sundallwas instrumental in pushing andencouraging the seniors to applyfor the scholarships and do it in atimely manner. Congratulations tothe graduating seniors and goodluck as you move on. Overall, theawards night went very well and ithad been moved to the multi-pur-pose room for the meal and gym tohand out awards. The school board has madearrangements with the golf courseto allow any school age students

From the Desk of the Superintendentan opportunity to golf this summerat no cost. I would hope we willhave students take advantage ofthis opportunity to continue be-coming better and enjoy the life-long sport of golf. I want to commend the studentswho achieved Perfect Attendancefor the school year: Kale Lytle,Nathan Patterson, Clancy Lytle,Tyler Peterson, David Sykora, Jes-sica Casjens, Reid Hansen,Samantha Rancour, RebeccaGriebel, Cayne Krogman, andBridger Casjens. The school willend up with around an overall 95.6percent attendance rate. The thirdgrade leads the way with a 97.5percent and the second grade at97.17 percent. The Big White stu-dents turned in an impressive97.92 percent attendance rate andno student at Big White missedmore than six days. I want tothank the students for increasingour attendance from the previousyears. We have had a pretty good

school year without a lot of prob-lems. I strongly believe it startswith the students and their will-ingness to learn and respect forothers. Parents and the schoolstaff are here to provide them aguide to do what is right and un-derstand the importance of a qual-ity education. Working togetherwill enhance the student’s educa-tion and make it more meaningfuland productive for everyone in-volved. Students and parents need to beaware that the way teachers willbe presenting lessons and admin-istrating assessments is changing.The Common Core Standardsmoves the focus of the classroom toproject based lessons, story prob-lems, analysis, critical thinking,and increased emphasis on stu-dents centered activities. Gone arethe days of just answering ques-tions in the texts, filling out work-sheets, lectures, and standard as-sessments. There will be chal-lenges for the teacher and studentto work through, but the end re-sult will be a student with moreconfidence and ability to succeedin the future. There will be new challengesawaiting the students in the fall,but for now I hope everyone has asafe and enjoyable summer break.

GFP commission proposes furbearer changes The Game, Fish and Parks Com-mission is proposing a muskrat hunt-ing season and expansion of bobcathunting and trapping to portions ofeastern South Dakota. The muskrat hunting season wasrecommended as part of a new statelaw passed by the 2012 South DakotaLegislature. The law requires that theGame, Fish and Parks Commissionpropose rules to specify hunting sea-sons, hunting units, and other restric-tions for the hunting or taking ofmuskrats necessary for the propermanagement of wildlife and to ad-dress damage caused by muskrats toroads and other infrastructure, aswell as private property. Under the proposal, the muskratshooting season would run from April1 through Aug. 31 statewide. Nontoxicshot would be required for shotguns.Only landowners or lessees on land

they own or operate and state, countyor township highway officials couldshoot muskrats within road rights-of-way. The proposed expansion of the bob-cat season would allow a limited sea-son in certain counties east of theMissouri River, with a limit of onebobcat per hunter or trapper. For2012, that would include the countiesof Brule, Buffalo, Charles Mix, BonHomme and Yankton. Season dateswould be Dec. 8-30. In addition to those proposedchanges, the Commission also pro-posed the following changes to trap-ping prohibitions: •Change the date that traps maybe placed prior to the mink season tobe consistent with other administra-tive rules (in effect, sunrise of openingday) •Clarify the dimensions of colony

traps used for muskrat trapping, asround and square traps are now beingused and current rule only addressesround traps •Require on public lands and pub-lic road rights-of-ways statewide, thatbody-grip traps with an openinggreater than 36 square inches (largerthan 160 Conibears) when used inconjunction with any bait, lure, orscent be recessed a minimum of seveninches in cubbies, baited box traps, orbucket traps The recommend change regardingbody-grip trap restrictions would ad-dress growing concerns from uplandbird hunters that use dogs on publiclands and public road right-of-ways.As fur prices have increased over thelast several years, GFP has seen a sig-nificant increase in the number ofbaited box traps or bucket traps thatare used on public lands and public

road right-of-ways. These cubbies,baited box traps, or bucket traps arevery effective at taking raccoons,opossum, and skunk; however, GFPhad two reported cases this past yearof dogs being unintentionally killed inthose trap sets. By adopting the rec-ommended changes, the possibility ofunintentionally killing dog in thosetypes is reduced. More information and highlightsfrom the May GFP Commission meet-ing are available online. People who wish to provide written

comments on these hunting proposalsmay do so until 5 p.m. Wednesday,June 6. Comments may be mailed to Game,Fish and Parks Commission, 523 E.Capitol Ave., Pierre, SD, 57501 oremailed to wildinfo@state. sd.us.Comments must have the sender'sfull name and address in order to be-come part of the public record.
