Demolition ... The building at 204 E. Pine Street was razed Wednesday, April 18. Four different pieces of machinerywere used to first take out the light carport behind the former apartment, then the wood and block storage shed in the

far back, and finally the block andbrick front building. Throughoutthe day-long procedure, neighbor-ing business owners and employees,and passersby watched from a dis-tance. As shown left, care was takento not damage the greenhouse im-mediately east of the main building.Shown above, the remaining frontsection of the east wall and the frontwall came down at approximately3:00 p.m. Clean-up and loading ofdump trucks had been done all dayso the site could be cleared progres-sively and so the debris would nothinder the work. It took 41 dumptruck loads to haul out the debris.The basement area of the main

building was back filled and the lotleveled.

More than 31 municipal officialsrepresenting six cities gathered atthe South Dakota MunicipalLeagues annual District 8 meet-ing, held in Kadoka, April 17.

Yvonne Taylor, SDML executivedirector, spoke about the outcomeof the 2012 legislative session, andthe effect new laws will have onSouth Dakota municipalities. Tay-lor also discussed the direction andfuture of the SDML and services of-fered to the municipalities.

More and more we are seeingthe need to get better information

out to the citizens and legislators.Municipal government provides avast array of services, and peopleneed to be informed of where theirtax dollars are going. This type ofeducation can only benefit munici-pal government. The taxpayerswould be very proud of their localgovernment if they were fullyaware of how much service a mu-nicipality provides at a relativelylow cost, Taylor said.

Elaine Hendrickson, SDML pres-ident for 2012 and finance officerfor the city of Baltic, was also on

hand to discuss her priorities forthe current year as well as to con-duct the election of District 8 offi-cers for the upcoming year. Othersin attendance were representativesof various state agencies and repre-sentatives of groups affiliated withthe league.

Harry Weller, mayor in Kadoka,was re-elected as District 8 chairand Jackie Stilwell, utility clerk inKadoka, was re-elected as vicechair. Those attending voted tohold the 2013 District 8 meeting inMurdo.

by Dl BatlsThe annual Career Day spon-

sored by Philip Health Services,Inc. was held Monday, April 23, atthe Philip High School.

Bart Hallberg from Area HealthEducation Center, Yankton, wasthe guest speaker. He visited sixdifferent science classes during theday. PHSIs Jennifer Henrie ac-companied him, not only to intro-duce him to the classes, but to addlocal information pertaining to hispresentations.

Hallberg is concerned with med-ical provider distribution in Amer-ica. Some places, fairly few, have

too many medical personnel, whilemost rural areas do not haveenough.

Our job is to recruit, train andretain health care providers in ourstate, said Hallberg. We areshort, we have been short for a longtime, and it isnt getting any better.My job is to provide you withhealth care needs and require-ments. He said that South Dakotahas 60 different types of positionsthat pertain to the medical field.

Of those, Henrie said, We have40 different jobs, 40 differentthings people do, in our little hos-pital.

The fact that this hospital isstill here and does what it does is atribute to the people who work

there, said Hallberg. I cant guar-antee you a job out of college, butthere are good jobs, and good pay-ing jobs, out there. The need forhealth care providers is rock solid.

Hallberg said that over the nextfew years there will be a decreasein the numbers of graduating sen-iors in South Dakota, thus therewill be fewer people going into the

work force. He said that it is ex-pected the older population willcontinue to grow in numbers. Withthe influx of the tremendous num-bers of the 1946-1964 babyboomers becoming senior citizens,Imagine that kind of numberflooding the health care needs ofthis nation, said Hallberg. Wedont have enough people to takecare of the population with healthcare. He continued, In the healthcare industry, the customer base isnever ending, it will never goaway.

Henrie said of the aging popula-tion, Not only is this group getting

larger, but they will need more andmore health care toward the end oflife.

Hallberg said, College is not foreveryone, and thats okay. Thereare positions in health care thatyou can get by going to tech school.He said that a dental hygienistearns around $69,000 per year inSouth Dakota. All of this, all ofthese jobs, make up the health careindustry and you can go to schoolfor them right here in SouthDakota.

Hallberg encouraged students toinvestigate certain programs suchas Scrubs Camps, Simulation inMotion, Certified Nurses Assistantinstitutes and Women in Science.

PHSI Career Day at Philip High School

Promoting health care edu-cation and jobs ... Bart Hallbergspoke to Philip students about gradu-ating and going into college or techschool for a health care career.

A free two-hour weather spottersclass will be held Wednesday, May2, in the Philip Fire Hall, startingat 7:00 a.m.

Susan Sanders, meteorologist,Rapid City, for the NationalWeather Service, will conduct thecourse. The class is sponsored bythe Philip Volunteer Fire Depart-ment and Haakon County Emer-

gency Management.Sanders will present information

on how tornados form and what towatch for, especially when individ-uals are notified by the NWS. Spot-ters may be contacted to watch forstorms, and they will be taughthow to communicate informationback to the NWS.

The class will use a combinationof still photos and videos so peopleget a sense of cloud motion andwinds. Sanders will use videos ofpast local storms. She will stresshow to watch safely.

There are two different kinds ofstorm spotters. Mobile spotters areusually law enforcement and emer-gency personnel who can be pagedfrom dispatchers. We like to pro-vide refreshers to these people,said Sanders.

The NWS also uses stationary, orin-place, spotters. Over the yearsweve got a list of individuals whoreport wind speed, hail and rain,and snow in the winter, saidSanders.

We hope we get some interestedmembers of the public, saidSanders. Presentation of theclasses generally rotates among

Philip, Milesville and Midland.

by Dl BatlsWork has begun on the railroad

track expansion project for CenexHarvest States Midwest Coopera-tive.

The co-op is expanding its ownrailroad side track capability from25 to 35 railroad cars. An existingloading rail line will be lengthenedeastward. It, and a new line, willboth extend across S. Auto Avenue.

We plan on it being done thethird week in June, barring anyunforeseen complication, said JayBaxter, site manager for MidwestCooperatives in Philip. They areflattening the land and getting itready, then doing the dirt work.

The construction includes put-ting in a storm sewer. The entireproject will be tiled and tied intothe storm sewer so there will be noerosion problems. Actual laying of

track is not on the schedule untilmid-June.

In May, road closed signs will beinstalled for S. Auto Avenue, andwill be used only when neededuntil the project is done. Doublegates will be used on each side ofthe railroad track crossing to closeoff the gravel road. The road will beclosed for short periods during con-struction and thereafter wheneverrailroad cars are being loaded.Railroad car loading will cause it tobe closed only temporarilly, thenon an estimated one or two daysper week.

Baxter has met with residentswho live near the S. Auto Avenuecrossing. We want to be goodneighbors, said Baxter.

The co-op officials have also metwith the city and its engineers, A-

G-E corporation (the Fort Pierrecompany responsible for the dirtwork), MGA Railroad ConstructionInc., and Civil Design Inc. (theBrookings firm doing plans andblueprints).

We planned together, withsafety being the main concern,said Baxter. When you are doing arailroad project, there are a lot offederal regulations. If there are anyquestions from the community, justgive me a call.

Baxter is anticipating the extracapability to create another posi-tion at the co-op. This should cre-ate another job and it should alsobring a lot more trucks to town be-cause we will be able to handle thatmuch more grain. All this, whileadding service to our patron base,said Baxter.

Too much stuff... by Dl Batls I hear that there is a television show about people who hoard. Why

this would appeal to viewers is beyond me. Although, hoarding is some-

thing that most people do to some degree; the only differences are what

and how much they collect.

People who lived during the Great Depression were ingrained with

the necessity of never throwing anything away. Those were the days

when a lost button was found and sewn back on. In todays world, the

garment would probably be thrown away. Yet, unbelievably, some

teens purchase pre-worn and pre-ripped jeans. We now live in a society

where it is actually easier and cheaper to buy a new television set than

to get the old one repaired, that is if anyone would repair it and if they

could find parts. Try having someone fix your old microwave. Still,there are people who hang on to such stuff to someday fix it.

The great-grandparents who have 46 photo albums of their extended

family which covers six decades could be labeled as hoarders. If the

people, places and occasions are listed on each photo, and if family

members actually want to inherit those albums, then I can understand

this grandiose collection. If a young couple has 46 albums of photos of

their childs first year, then that might be a tad extreme. Their fifth

child probably wont have a fraction of that many photos.

Ill bet most of us have something in the refrigerator that is more

than vintage. Tabasco sauce dated 1999; yeah, that was a very good

year. Do you still have a disco shirt in your attic, or is it still in your

closet, or worse yet did you wear it last week? It might be safe to finally

give up and throw out your eight-track cassettes. The clumsy kids have

grown and moved out, so why do you still have the set of plastic cups

and dishes? Are your favorite tennis shoes so worn that they look more

like sandals? The hammer head in your tool box has waited five years

for a new handle. Are there spare keys in a drawer from a car that was

sold three years ago? Are you still wearing a mood ring? You can get

free state maps, so why keep the progression of old ones in your glove

box? Dont waste your time planting the cucumber seeds bought four

years ago. Do you use your car trunk for storage? The white wedding

dress has been stored to be handed down and used again, but you have

only sons or do you plan on re-using it yourself? Do you still have sev-eral boxes in the garage that have not been opened in the last three

moves to different houses? How many flashlights are in your house

that will never work again? Does anyone really re-read National Geo-

graphic magazines, especially since some of those countries dont even

exist anymore? Do you have six how-to books on how to unclutter your

house?

If your collection can never be sold or even given away, why collect

it? Do you have eight rooms worth of stuff and live in a six room house?

Would it take you three weeks to move, or three years?

Basics of Life

Guest Editorial by Bill KunkleWhen I drive on Highway 14 between Midland and Philip, South

Dakota, I catch a small glimpse of yesterday. There emerges springfavorites. I smell the sweetness of new grass and when I pass a house

can almost smell cookies and fresh-baked bread.And a place where the American dream is possible, the belief that

if you work hard you can make it, regardless of what you look like,what your name is you can support a family, buy a house, send yourkids to college, retire with dignity and respect.

That dream has been fraying for too many people in other places.But here you can find the meaning of empathy a caring for your

fellow citizens which leads to the principles of freedom and fairnessfor all. And the ethic of social responsibility that makes your commu-nity better.

A family member and I were discussing how much we enjoy readingthe Pioneer Review and agreed that for a small city, Philip has high-quality journalists. No, they dont repeat details of national news butcover what their readers are interested in. Big city newspapers whosesilly smugness just doesnt cut the mustard here. There are a numberof writers here whose work is always read. Like the homey essays of

Vivian Hansen, Sonia Nemec, Marsha Sumpter and others.And then theres Del Bartels whose work can educate and inform

us with amazing information at every level, and still amuse us in hisweekly column. He gives voice to the communities local happenings,not afraid to tackle issues that affect the community regardless of howdifficult or unpopular those issues may be.

And the papers management, whose ability to lead with fairness,creativity, compromise and openness that the community can believe

in and is an example of a decision-making process that listens to allpoints of view.

The season of graduation is approaching and students lives maylead to many places. I hope they will take the Pioneer Review withthem always. They can be reminded that people in their home placeappreciate and represent the very basics of life.

Dear Editor,I have heard it said that sticking

your neck out gets your head cutoff, so here goes nothing!

I have been back in the areasince December and have traveledmany places doing many things. Igrumble about the gravel roadseach time I meet a semi and I tryto get off the side because our roadsare narrow here. I think we allknow that. I think we all know thecounty has no money to fix this. Ithink we are all frustrated.

A few weeks back the county de-cided to pull the shoulders. That isalways a hassle and makes the

roads miserable for a time. Usuallyits just dodging the giant wads ofgrass and roots and the bumps thatmake it a nuisance. This time, as Iwas told, that it was at least one-

half gravel they pulled and dumpedin the middle of the road. (Most ofthe locals would dispute this as itappears to be mostly sand and blowdirt.)

While doing this they managedto drag the blade and make somefantastic chatters that are great tonavigate with a trailer or an SUV.They sufficiently reduced the speedone can travel down to less than 30mph in a lot of places. Again,

mostly just a nuisance. Then itrained. Four-wheel drive pickupshad to be in four-low to be able toget up and down hills. The ditcheswere better to drive in. I wouldknow. My brother-in-law had todrive there to get by my vehiclewhen I got stuck in the middle ofthe county road going downhill theday after it rained. Because of theprecarious spot I was stuck in, forthe safety of my son, I was forced tostand on the side of the road forover an hour with my two-year-oldwaiting for someone to come pullme out. I had simply been attempt-ing to do business in Midland andafter my hour wait and subsequentremoval was forced to return homeand try it another day.

The county road crew men weremade aware of my plight and theyrefused to come pull me out be-cause their pickups wouldnt be

Release Time clean-up work ... Local churcheshold Release Time on Wednesdays from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30p.m. for participating elementary students to be releasedfrom school so they can attend youth gatherings at theirchurch. Annually, during one of their meetings duringeach groups last few weeks before the school year is over,the kids pick up trash around the area. Shown at left is theFirst Lutheran group with the trash they collected. Shownat right is the Our Redeemer Lutheran Church group.Shown below is the United Church Release Time group.Though not pictured, the Community Evangelical FreeChurch group also collected trash.

able to do the job because of thecondition the road is in.

Heres a thought: if the roads arethat bad, close them. If the countycant travel the roads they main-tain, then Id say they are in sorryshape! I know the county has nomoney. Everyone knows that. Im-provements are few and far be-tween. The roads are dangerous forsemis or anyone hauling a trailer.We have to send FedEx and UPS

(trucks) on different routes becauseof the current condition. The roadsshouldnt be capable of handlingspeeds of 65-plus, but one sureought to be able to go down them at50 mph and not have to hold on tothe steering wheel for dear life.

Those of us out here in theboonies take our roads seriously.They are the only thing betweenlife and death sometimes. There isno way an ambulance could havemade it up the north road going outof Midland or west of Hwy.14/63going by the old Diamond Ringplace on Sunday or Monday. I wantmedical care accessible for my fam-ily if at all possible. I also dontwant my family member injured orworse because they are driving asemi to make a living for us, meetanother vehicle and roll because

the road is so narrow.I was angry the other day at the

serious inconvenience that met myyoungest son and I, but today Iwant it noted that though I am stillupset, I am more concerned for ourcitizens. If the county has nomoney to fix the roads, what arethey planning to do when they aresued for negligence because some-one is injured or killed? I truly hopewe never have to find out the an-swer to that.

Sincerely,/s/Karri Buck, Midland

P.S. I was asked if I would thankthe county boys when we have im-proved roads. The answer is yes; Iwill gladly thank them for makingthings better and safer.

THE BIBLE by Paul M. SadlerEarlier this year, my wife and I had an opportunity to visit the Dead Sea Scrolls

and the Bible exhibit at the Milwaukee Museum. When we entered the exhibit,we were given a small hand-held recorder about the size of a cell phone. As we

made our way through the exhibit, we si mply punched in the number of the display and were given an explanation of thescroll, book, or artifact and its si gnificance.

In addition to the Dead Sea S crolls there were numerous biblical artifacts that took you back in ti me to the days of ourLord. For example, there was a display of the coinage of the period that was embossed with an image of Caesar. This wouldhave been the same type of coin the Lord pointed to when He answered the question of the Pharisees and the Herodiansabout paying tribute to Caesar (Mark 12:13-17). There was also an exhibit of oil lamps, one of which would have been thetype used in the Parable of the Ten Virgins. It was interesting to see how the five wise virgins would have trimmed theirlamps (Matt. 25:1-10).

The most fascinating part of the exhibit was the Dead Sea Scrolls, which incorporated the development of the EnglishVersions of the Scriptures, as well as the Guttenberg Bible, the first Bible ever produced on a printing press. I personallyaccept by faith that we have the Word of God today. But for the skeptic or critic who questions the Word of God, the DeadSea Scrolls clearly show the providential care of God.

For example, the oldest copy of the Torah prior to the discovery of the Dead S ea Scrolls would have been about the 10thCentury. The Torah is the f irst 5 Books of the Hebrew Bible ascribed to Moses. Archeologists date the Dead Sea Scrolls be-tween the 1st Century B.C. and the first half of the 1st C entury A.D. They were discovered in caves on the sheer rock faceof the northwest shore of the Dead Sea by a Bedouin shepherd in 1947. Despite the vast period of time between these twosets of manuscripts there is an amazing continuity, especially in regard to sense. For example:

The English translation of Deuteronomy 8:19 from the 10th Century (Hebrew Masoretic Text) states:I testify againstyou this day that ye shall surely perish.

When the Scholars translated this same passage from the Dead Sea Scrolls manuscripts it came out as follows in English:I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed.

Hopefully, you will have an opportunity to visit this exhibition which is touring the country; it is well worth your time.

When we talk about keepingcommunities safe, attention natu-rally turns to keeping police on thebeat and crime off the streets.Whats often overlooked is whatsgoing on inside far too many homesevery day. Domestic violence is anational epidemic, and its tearingfamilies and communities apart.We cant have truly safe communi-ties until people are able to feelsafe inside their own home.

This belief has traditionally tran-scended partisanship, especiallywhen Congress passed the original

Violence Against Women Act in1994. I cosponsored the legislationat that time because I recognizedthe immense need for these pro-grams and what a true gamechanger this bill could be. Not only

did it provide record funding tohelp prosecute offenders, it also fo-cused on prevention efforts andhelp for survivors. Im proud thatthis legislation passed both cham-bers with overwhelming bipartisansupport and was signed into law byPresident Clinton.

The Violence Against WomenAct was the first of its kind, and itproved enormously successful.When the legislation came up forreauthorization in 2000 and 2005,Congress again acted in a biparti-san manner to keep this law on thebooks, with the support of Presi-dent George W. Bush. Along theway, the law was expanded notonly to protect women from vio-lence and sexual assault, but alsoto address stalking and dating vio-lence. The coalition of Republicansand Democrats in Congress, to-gether with local law enforcement,prosecutors and advocates in thefield never wavered.

Congress is moving to reautho-rize this legislation again this year.

Although we have made greatstrides since the original law cameinto effect almost 20 years ago, do-mestic violence remains an issuenationwide. The Centers for Dis-ease Control recently estimatedthat one in five women have beenraped in their lifetime and 25 per-cent of women have been the victimof severe physical violence. Clearly,theres more work to be done.Thats why Ive cosponsored thereauthorization again this year.

Just like past versions of this

bill, this years reauthorization ofthe Violence Against Women Actmakes sure that we are keeping upwith the challenges were facing.Current studies predict that morethan one in three American Indianwomen will be raped in their life-times, and two in five will be vic-tims of physical abuse. Thats whythis bill includes measures to pre-vent and address violence and sex-ual assault in Indian Country, andstrengthens efforts to prosecutethose that commit these horriblecrimes.

Without these enhanced meas-ures, our tribes would be left with-out the ability to prosecute alloffenders. Criminals could then gounpunished, free to walk thestreets and continue their cycle ofviolence. This is morally wrong

and would make all South Dakotacommunities less safe.

Nearly 30 years ago as a memberof the South Dakota State Legisla-ture, I introduced legislation tohelp fund domestic abuse shelters.Since that time, weve come so farin preventing the spread of violenceand addressing the effects of as-sault. Now is not the time to putthe brakes on decades of bipartisanprogress.

The safety of communities inSouth Dakota and across the na-tion begins at home. The Violence

Against Women Act has a strongtrack record of proven success.Congress should act to reauthorizethis law and give our prosecutorsand local law enforcement the toolsthey need to keep our communitiessafe.

A safe community begins at home

A reward has been offered by theUnited States Fish and WildlifeService for information leading tothe arrest and conviction of theperson responsible for the shootingof a whooping crane located along354th Avenue, approximately 17miles southwest of Miller.

Law enforcement officers fromthe service and the South DakotaGame, Fish and Parks are investi-gating the shooting, which tookplace Friday afternoon on April 20.The migrating adult whoopingcrane was traveling with two addi-tional whooping cranes beforebeing shot with a high-power rifleas it was standing in a corn field.

Anyone with information shouldcall either the 24-hour Turn in aPoacher Hotline at 1-888-OVERBAG (683-7224) or the U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service at 605-224-9045 to report any informationwhich will aid officers in the appre-hension of the shooter. Callers canremain anonymous.

Observations and other informa-

tion reported by the public play akey role in solving wildlife crime,according to Brad Merrill, U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service specialagent.

The whooping crane is amongone of the rarest birds in the worldwith a total population of approxi-mately 600 individuals worldwide,which includes captive raisedwhooping cranes. The crane whichwas killed, its mate, and their sub-adult whooping crane were amongless than 300 whooping cranes mi-grating from their winteringgrounds found in Aransas NationalWildlife Refuge along the TexasGulf Coast to Woods Buffalo State

Park located in Alberta and theNorthwest Territories in Canada.This population of cranes is theonly self-sustaining population ofwhooping cranes in the world.

In addition to the EndangeredSpecies Act, whooping cranes areprotected by state laws and the fed-eral Migratory Bird Treaty Act.

Reward for information in shootingof whooping crane near Miller

by Nois Pstonpast national vic-command

th Amican LgionA spike in flag desecrations has

led the American Legion nationalcommander to call on lawmakers toquickly pass a proposed constitu-tional amendment that when rati-fied by the required states wouldallow Congress to protect the

United States flag from desecra-tion.For years opponents of this

measure have been telling us thatflag desecration in the UnitedStates was so rare that this amend-ment was not needed, said Com-mander Fang A. Wong. Yet the

Associated Press reports that therehave been several such incidents atthe Occupy Oakland demonstra-tions. Moreover, some in Congresssay that this is a waste of time.What they dont understand is thatmost Americans are sickened whenthey see Old Glory desecrated, andpolls show that they widely supportthis amendment. This measure hasbipartisan support. The flag protec-tion amendment is a prime oppor-tunity for members of Congress tocome together and accomplishsomething great for the Americanpeople.

The struggle to protect the flagfrom desecration began shortlyafter the United States SupremeCourt ruled in 1989 that flag dese-cration was protected speech. The

American Legion and other organ-izations were outraged that the fiveto four ruling invalidated flag pro-tection laws in 48 states and theDistrict of Columbia. In response,the American Legion and the Citi-zens Flag Alliance, a coalition ofmore than 140 organizations thatis now chaired by Harvard law pro-fessor Richard Parker, have cham-pioned the passage of a narrowlydrawn constitutional amendmentthat would return to the people theright to protect the flag of the

United States. Such an amend-ment has passed the House of Rep-resentatives six times but hasfallen short of the necessary two-thirds supermajority required topass the Senate.

The last time a vote was takenin the Senate it fell only one voteshort Wong said. As people areagain seeing images on YouTube of

their flag being desecrated, thesame flag that covers the coffins ofour war heroes returning from

Afghanistan, we think its time forCongress to take another vote. The

American people should tell theirrepresentatives and senators tosupport S.J. Resolution 19 and H.J.

Resolution 13. Congress can eitherstand with the one percent whodesecrate the flag or the 99 percentwho revere it.

The amendment itself would notban flag burning, it would simplyauthorize Congress to pass a lawwhich would prohibit the desecra-tion of actual United States flags.Its entire text is, The Congress

shall have power to prohibit thephysical desecration of the flag ofthe United States. If the measurewere passed by Congress, it wouldrequire ratification by three-fourths of the states before it wouldbecome enshrined in the Constitu-tion.

Our young guest from a fewweeks ago, Matthew Blair, hadbeen browsing through some of theold books I have in one room. Onesuch book, The Evolution of Indus-try, by D.H. MacGregor, M.A. waslooked at, a little of the book goesas such, The growth of populationmeans a force of increasing de-

mands. But all these demands takeus back to the land. All the goodswe use are transformations of prod-ucts given us at that commonsource The demand grows andthe land must supply it but theland does not grow; and its fertilityis subject to a law which is not alaw of increase A great part ofthe land area of the world can-not be cultivated at all withoutloss; that is to say, more goodswould be consumed in cultivating itthan it would yield. The forcewhich comes between the growingwants of the people and the lessen-ing fertility of land is invention.

You hear ads telling people thatagriculture is the driving force thatkeeps America healthy, that waseven evident in this book on indus-trial evolution. Earth Day is an at-tempt to make folks realize thevalue of the land.

Mark May 6 on the celendar,Mother's Day. May your memoriesof your mother be of all the bless-ings she bestowed on you. If youare lucky to still have your mother,make her day special.

Don and Vi Moody have enjoyedanother busy week. Monday, theystarted working on fixing up theyards and trying to get some treesplanted. The fencing crew is keep-ing them busy buying materials,but the progress is rewarding!

Monday, I had a trip to RapidCity with the Haakon CountyPrairie Transportation van andhad a little time to shop for a morepowerful router to distribute theWi Fi connection all over the house.When I got home the challenge wasto get it to work on the remoteprinter as well.

Tony Harty had coffee out, thenchecked on how L.D. and Shirley

Hair were coming at getting settled

in. They were still tired from thetrip up. L.D. had a construction joblined up already and will soon be atwork.

Tuesday, Mike and Patty Grovencame by for a short visit and tobring me a little project theywanted done for the Philip golfcourse. Patty said she and Arlene

Kujawa had fixed up some of theflowers at the golf course and stucka sign in that told them to grow.

Two guys, Cory and Brent, fromNebraska who were in the area tohunt turkeys with Richie andRusty Baye spent Tuesday night atGeorge and Sandee Gittings.Sandee went to Rapid City Tues-day afternoon to attend a two-dayschool Wednesday and Thursday.

Tuesday, L.D. and Shirley Hairgot a second wind and made a tripto Rapid, so Tony Harty found outafter coffee when he called to checkon them.

Wednesday afternoon, I made atrip to Rapid City with the HCPTvan for appointments and someshopping. Nickie (McDaniel) Bo-nenberger and her two littles onevisited after she got off work.Grandson Zack Seager called at thesame time, so he and Nickie vis-

ited. They graduated together anddiscussed the upcoming 10-yearclass reunion. Zack was justcheckin' in on us. His work isgoing good and he learns some-thing new every day. They are in-stalling flooring all around the areaand keeping very busy.

Don and Vi Moody had lunch inKadoka Wednesday and had a funvisit with Ken Kusick. They alsoran into Linda Stillwell for a briefvisit while doing business aroundtown. In the evening Vi had lots oflong distance calls from friendsnear and far. Raynae (Brooks)Richburg, Irvington, Ala., called.Shortly after, Lorraine NewmanCourtney called from Dallas/ Ft.Worth, Texas, area to visit about avacation together in Texas. Lor-raine is Owen and June Newman'sdaughter, former ranchers in thisarea. It was discovered that Lor-

raine and her husband, Ed, also

have property in Oklahoma not farfrom Don's brothers homes. It wasall the storms and tornadoes thatwere in abundance around theirarea which prompted a lot of thesecalls.

It was coffee time with the localfolks for Tony Harty Wednesdaymorning, then he visited with theHairs. Shortly after lunch, hepicked up Wilma Stout and theymade a trip to Rapid City for shop-ping and to attend the Community

Action Program meeting and sup-per, returning home that evening.

We dumped 1/10 of rain from the

gage Thursday morning. Bill deliv-ered the sign to Grovens here inKadoka and also made some deliv-eries around Philip.

Cathy Fiedler reports that theywere cool most of the week withevening rains that totaled about40/100 in Sturgis and Thursdaymorning it was very foggy. Seemslike the wind blows every otherday. Friday afternoon, Ralph andCathy went to Spearfish when shegot off work, did shopping and thenwent to the Don Klumb home for agood cookout and some visiting.Granddaughters Caitlin and Han-nah went back to Sturgis withRalph and Cathy. Tessa picked aschool dance with a friend over avisit with grandma and grandpa.Don't they grow up too fast!

Tony Harty visited the Hairs inthe morning and visited with hisniece, Kathy Brown, in the after-

noon Thursday.Don and Vi Moody left for Rapid

City late Thursday evening for afew days "getaway" to get caughtup on that little property and checkthings out. Trees are beautiful andthe yard and newly stained shadowbox fence is very pretty with a dec-orative black chain link facingsouth in the backyard with a seethrough view that way, still verypet protective.

Another shower left 2/10 in ourrain gage Friday morning. Bill wasin Philip for cards daily and does doerrands for me, but the list on Fri-day was just too long. So, I wentover and took care of it myself.Time to get those taxes paid beforethe end of the month, so droppedthat check off at the HaakonCounty Treasurer's office and chat-ted with Patti Rhodes. Visited withJune Huston at the FSA office

while taking care of that businessand bummed coffee at Dean andMary Parsons and had a nice visit.On the way home, I stopped byMary Schnee's to give her a handwith a computer glitch and wasable to fix it. Home just in time toget supper on the table at the usualtime.

Friday, Tony Harty went to theclinic in Kadoka for a doctor's ap-pointment, then had coffee out. Hewent to Philip in the afternoon onbusiness and visited with DavidBurnett before returning home.

Don and Vi Moody returned to

the ranch Saturday, did a quickcheck around the cattle and backinto Rapid City for Sunday to getanother horse checked into at thelittle ranch. They visited withSusan Fellow's father, Bud Baker,and also Roy Dishman about the ir-rigation canal updates a couple oftimes over the weekend to checkout changes to be made at thecrossing near Rapid Creek.

Saturday morning, Ralph andCathy Fiedler and Caitlin andHannah Klumb headed for RapidCity. They met Eric and SherryHanson and Elsie and TessaKlumb for lunch, then went to themall to do all-girls power shopping.Later, Richard and Diana Stewartmet up with them. The guys didtheir thing and the gals continuedshopping. Later, the Klumb girlsloaded up with the Hanson familyto go back to Spearfish. Diana and

Cathy met Richard and Ralph to dosome visiting and then later wentto supper together. After supper,Ralph and Cathy returned home toSturgis and the Stewarts went totheir motel room. Cathy said theyhave changed neighbors to thewest, their single guy friend movedout and a couple with youngteenage son moved in. So changesin the neighborhood.

Saturday following coffee out,Tony Harty visited with the Hairs.They were still digging out theircamper and getting things situ-ated. It seems that whateverShirley needs, L.D. can lay hishands on it right quick, so theymust be seeing the light at the endof the unpacking. Visitors at Tony'shome later in the day were a coupleof Hutterites from the MillerColony who picked up a lot of thecanning jars Tony had been gifted

by the Carson family. L.D. Haircame and helped load. Tony visitedhis niece, Kathy Brown, in the af-ternoon.

Visitors at our place Saturdaywere Phyllis Word, who was sport-ing a wound after suffering a fall atthe church during release timeWednesday. The good news wasshe didn't break anything, and an-other positive, her granddaughter,Mackinzie, can help with band-ages. I offered, but it seemed every-thing was under control. TonyHarty came by in the evening for avisit as well.

Following church Sunday, Tonyenjoyed dinner at home, he'dcooked up some chickens. KathyBrown celebrated her 50th birth-day, so he took over a chicken fortheir supper that evening. He vis-ited L.D. and Shirley Hair aftersupper.

You never know who you willmeet around here, or at least thatis how it goes for us. At breakfastSunday morning we visited with acouple who said they were fromGermany found out they spendmost of their time in Fairfax,Minn., where they have a home.

Another unsuspecting tourist fe llprey to my question, Do you wantto fly? Well, not Sunday, but sinceBernd and Karin Hillmann wereinterested in art (He is a 'starvingartist' he said.) they were invited tocome by our place and see some ofthe work of my great-grandmother,

Isabelle May (Little) Weeks, andher sister, Frances (Little) Dolson,had painted in the late 1800s.Bernd was so excited about some ofthe art he was going to send mematerial and instructions forstretching the canvass on one

painting and how to clean, using anonion and other techniques andalso restore. He showed me hisportfolio of art he has for sale aswell as many original watercolorsdone by his father who was aknown artist in Germany. Afterspending two hours of their morn-ing visiting, Bill said I still would-n't let them leave, had to followthem out to their car! Anyway, theyescaped without an airplane ride.

After church, Bill surprised me bysuggesting wetake a fly. Wow, did-n't let that invitation lay idle. Weflew over the Terry Buchert farm/

ranch, checking to see what washappening. We spotted a tractorwith the drag on it sitting idle inthe Milesville area. The air was abit bumpy, but a beautiful day to beflying. Jerry Patterson surprisedus when he stopped in for a visit.He had taken the great-grandchil-dren to the playground at theschool, so decided to check in onhow we were doing. The rain we re-ceived last week and the smallamounts this week certainly aregreening things up in fine shape.Jerry said work on Highway 73going south sure slowed them downgetting to the Black Pipe place.They have to go by way ofBelvidere to Norris, then to thefarm. Since he sold the Royer place,he now only has the Tornadoranch, but he said the fishing wasgood there and that is a good wayto entertain the great-grandchil-

dren. There is little difference in peo-

ple, but that little difference makesa big difference. The little differenceis attitude. The big difference iswhether it is positive or negative.W. Clement Stone

the number of hungry children inthe USA and to feed starving chil-dren throughout the world. Themeals consist of rice, soy, vegeta-bles, vitamins and minerals.
