The FARE (Food Allergy Research & Educa-tion) Walk was held August 10, 2013, at WilsonPark in Denver Colorado. The team Dairy Er-rors consisting of: Dawson, Dalton, Elizabeth,Ryan Stricker, Kelsey Sylvester (Dawsonsbabysitter), Aunt Michelle Butler, cousins Kel-cey, Katie and Lukas, Grandpa Chuck andGrandma Janet VanderMay, arrived with ourteam t-shirts on and ready to join the 800 walk-ers thru the park. The FARE organization ben-efited in fundraising efforts netting over $4,300for continued Research and Education of aller-gies.

What an experience this was for Dawson andhis family. Dawsons team, Dairy Errors, re-ceived numerous awards for their efforts; GoldTeam award - tying for 1st place in top dollarsraised; Fight to the Finish award- recognizingtheir efforts in walking 70 miles of road ditchesthis summer as they picked up aluminum cans

to be recycled and donating the money to FARE.Dawson also was recognized for being the indi-vidual raising the most in donations. The finalaward being national recognition by the FAREcorporate on feature articles of Dawsons familyand how they support FARE in their family,community and beyond.

Dawson allergies are many and very seriouslife threatening if he should consume eggs,milk, nuts or fish. He has never eaten food pre-

pared in a restaurant or for that matter evendrank from a glass. His mom packs his own spe-cial food every where they go. Given a choice ofrestaurant he bases his decision by how muchhe likes of the TV or the way it smells in the es-tablishment!

Elizabeth and Ryan have gone above and be-yond to help their son lead a healthy life. Theyhave spent countless hours researching and un-derstanding food allergies. Elizabeth haslearned to cook adjusting about every recipe soas to meet the needs of Dawsons allergy re-quirements. A trip to the grocery store is notfast, easy or cheap. Reading all labels, contentsand facilities in which the food is prepared is ofconsideration. She can substitute nearly any in-gredient and make a healthy meal for the fam-ily. We keep teasing Elizabeth that she needs topublish her very own book sharing advice andrecipes! She and the boys also raise a garden,

canning and freezing the produce.The family is happy to share all theyve learnedabout allergies. They continue to walk in sup-port of FARE--- picking up one can at a timethey are making a difference. They also acceptcontributions.

Watch out Denver the DAIRY ERRORS willbe back for the 2014 FARE walk!

When Gering Valley infant Dawson Stricker was 9-months old he had a severe allergic reaction that senthim into anaphylactic shock. His throat swelled up andhe couldnt breathe, his mother Elizabeth Stricker re-called. I had to stick my finger down his throat to openhis airway. We live out in the country so we couldntwait for an ambulance to get there.

After the scare, Elizabeth and her husband Ryantook young Dawson into town for some medical tests. Itturned out he has very severe food allergies, his mothersaid. He cant eat eggs, dairy products, fish or peanuts.In his case the allergy is severe enough to be life-threat-ening.

Stricker and other members of her family have beenon a mission to raise awareness about food allergiesever since that frightening day. Today Dawson is ahealthy 5-year-old boy with plenty of energy.

The family has been raising funds for the Food Al-lergy Research and Education (FARE) program for thepast two years.

FARE works to get the word out about food allergiesand to help families develop a support network,Stricker said. This weekend we are going to the FAREWalk for Food Allergy in Denver.

Gering Valleys Dawson Stricker and his mother Eliz-abeth raised almost $2,300 to spread the word aboutrare food allergies. Dawson is on a restricted diet butsaid he likes carrot cake.Last year their team, called the Dairy Errors, won firstplace at the walk for raising almost $2,300 for the FAREorganization.

On top of winning in the team category Dawson wonas the individual who raised the most money.

It was fun, Dawson said.They held an award ceremony after the walk and we

With the school year starting on August20 for staff and August 26 for students,final decision are being made.

Supt. Jamie Hermann gave a reportedthat summer building projects had beencompleted to prepare for school to begin. AtLong Valley the front entry way was re-paired and three classrooms received car-pet; two classrooms at Interior had carpetreplaced and a storage shed will be added;and the kitchen at Kadoka had some re-pairs done and a keyless entry was in-

stalled. The keyless entry will provided theextra needed security if an emergencywould arrise. During school hours the frontdoors and doors into the Great Hall by theoffices will remain unlock.

Scores were given for district improve-ment. All schools within the district haveimproved at student performance and at-tendance and all learning centers had beenremoved from school improvement. Mid-land received the highest performance rat-ing in the state. The staff and students willbe recognized for their achievement attheir back-to-school bash.

Hermann also informed the board thatthe school received extensive hail damageto the vehicles, buildings and the newscoreboard at the football field.

Elementary Principal Jeff Nemecekstated that enrollment at Interior was ap-proximately 60 students, Long Valley 44,Midland 18 and 115 in Kadoka in gradespreschool through fifth.

Nemecek also stated that a new instruc-

tional resource area has been added in theGreat Hall. Books and teaching supplieswill be stored here. Teachers can access itand use the material in their classrooms.

Secondary Principal George Seilerstated that students have registered forclasses. This year students were also ableto register for classes at the Wanblee CAPOffice. Freshman and sixth grade studentswill be having a computer use meeting inthe Great Hall.

Dates are being finalized for openhouses for middle and high school.

Seiler said that with the increase in vol-leyball players and the coaches felt the ath-letes would benefit from an additionalcoach. Although three coaches were notbudgeted, the head and assistance coachwould agree to a $600 decrease in theirsalary to be applied to the salary of a thirdcoach.

Heating fuel and vehicle fuel bids wereawarded. Propane at Long Valley, Kadokaand Interior was given to Midwest Coop;fuel oil at Interior to Midwest; bulk dieselat Interior and Long Valley to Midwest;diesel for Kadoka and Wanblee buses Dis-count Fuel; and bulk gasoline for Long Val-ley bus to Midwest.

Following a lengthy executive session forpersonnel contracts were approved forCarol Tucker as assistant cook and to JulieHermann as assistant volleyball coach. Mo-tion failed to offer a contract to Curtis An-derson as special education teacher. Aresignation was also expected from Shan-non Jindra.

A contract was approved to Diana Collerfor the use of a classroom at the MidlandSchool for a preschool program for the2013-2014 school term.

The next school board meeting will beheld on Wednesday, September 11 at 7 p.m.at the Kadoka School.

were given a gift certificate for an Internet store that isinvolved in food allergy awareness, Stricker said.

The annual walk attracts about 800 people a yearand the overall goal for the 2013 walk is to raise $50,000for FARE.We ask for cash donations but we also raise moneyfrom recycling, Stricker said. Our focus on this was toraise funds by collecting cans found out on county roads.We brought in over 400 pounds of aluminum cans thisyear.

She said that she and Dawson, along with his littlebrother Dalton, have walked 68 miles cleaning ditchesin the Gering Valley area. Weve walked by all thefarms out there and covered everything between Sand-berg Road and Wrights Gap Road. I was hoping wecould get a few more miles in so we could say we havehit 70 but 68 is still quite a lot.

Its good, Dawson said. We can make money.For a good cause, his mother added.Dawson will be starting kindergarten this month at

Cedar Canyon School, the same school his father at-tended. His mother admitted she was somewhat nerv-ous about that but that Dawson already has anindividualized health plan that was set up with schoolofficials earlier this summer.

It is required by the state, Stricker said of thesafety plan for Dawson. The school is aware of his con-dition. He already wears a special bracelet to day-carethat helps remind him and others what he cant eat. Sono cake at any birthday parties unless mom makes it.

Dawson seemed happy to show his colorful braceletthat had a medical alert icon as well as little shapes offish, peanuts, milk, eggs and the other food items hemust avoid.

It is nice there are so many alternatives to replace

eggs, Stricker said. We make a mean carrot-tofucake.

When asked what his favorite food was Dawsonsaid pizza. We can make it with a homemade crustand a non-dairy cheese alternative, otherwise he canhave all the normal toppings people like on pizza,said Stricker.

Dawson also said he liked to eat meat, especiallygrilled chicken. His mother said after over four yearsof developing a special diet the whole family has ad-justed but with the risk of an allergic reaction alwaysa present concern they need to be diligent with allshopping and cooking.

You really have to be conscientious about whatyou buy, she said. It is weird to read labels becauseyou learn just how often they will change the recipes.Especially with bread. They will change the ingredi-ents from one month to the next. So we have to becareful.

People can help Dawson and his team by making adonation to FARE by contacting foodallergywalk.organd hitting Search for a Walker and selecting Daw-son Stricker.

FARE has been very helpful to us, Stricker said.They have many links on their website and lots ofgood information. Some people might be new to allthis and there many good online supports and re-sources. The walk in Denver is great family fun. Weget to network with other families. It is like one bigsupport group.

Medical supply companies show us new innova-tions, food vendors share safe recipes and ideas. Lastyear they gave out cookbooks and other helpful pam-phlets.

Stricker said the Dairy Errors team was made upof 12 people representing everyone from Dawsonsgrandparents, to a few cousins, and even his babysit-ter.

After the 2.5 mile walk they hold family orientedgames, Stricker said. Last year all the kids got snowcones.

So while his food allergies do limit his choices Daw-son is still able to enjoy a sweet treat now and then,just as every child deserves.

Walk the Walk

I like to think that my walk ispurposeful. In other words, if yousee me going down the street, youmight think I am off to accomplishsomething useful. I might actuallybe headed somewhere to goof off,of course, but by my walk youmight think I had honorable in-tentions. At times I may saunter

and at other times hurry, but pur-poseful is my aim.

How we walk does send somesignals. For example, the otherday I saw a lady trudge down thealley with a bag of garbage. Sheplunked the bag in the alleygarbage can and then ploddedback towards the house. I diag-nosed that shed had a long dayand was tired. She might alsohave been a bit depressed.

Contrast that with son Chancewhen he was little and getting upfrom a nap. Hed wake up bouncyand come zipping into the familyroom. It was common for him totwirl himself around a couple oftimes in the process. This oftenmeant he was ready to go andlooking for action. A bit later, youmight think he was watching TVin the living room only to glanceout the window and see him danc-

ing down the ridgepole of the barn.Kids are like thatconstantlylooking for adventure. Theyremore fun to watch, though, if theybelong to someone else, and youarent responsible for keepingthem out of trouble.

Some people seem to alwayshave a spring in their step. Therewas a guy in my high-school classwho did. It was some extra motionof the foot that did it, but I wasnever quite sure why or how it

happened. That was just the wayhe moved and, I think, still is.

Age has some bearing on thespeed at which we travel, as youknow. Go to a nursing home andyoure apt to see some shufflingand a limp or two. Go to a schooland youre apt to see the opposite--quite a bit more action. Ive no-ticed, however, that some olderpeople keep moving right along

and some young ones are slow soage does not always determine ourrate of motion.

Then we come to length ofstride. My mom was taught thatladies take small steps so shedidalways. This made it a bit te-dious to walk anywhere with hereven though she might try to takeher small steps quickly. My sister,on the other hand, was havingnone of that nonsense. She wantedto get where she was going andnot worry about being ladylike allthe time. The ladies of moms eraalso had lots of other rules thatseemed fairly silly to the next gen-eration. Mom had fashion rulestoo such as never wear white be-fore a certain date in the springand that hats and gloves were re-quired at certain functions. Theseare restrictive rules and no longerof much use as far as I can tell.

Our way of walking must tellquite a bit about us since we seemto have lots of words that describemotion. Who can forget John Tra-volta in the movie, Saturday NightFever? After hed worked hard anddone a good job in a dance compe-tition, he said he had to go strut.Next you see him strutting downthe street to a jazzy soundtrackand feeling quite pleased withhimself. His smile and his stridesay it all.

Come to think of it, young cow-boys tend to strut as well. It mustbe something about the hat, boots,spurs, and chaps along with thecowboy tradition that brings itout. It quite often amuses me, andI enjoy watching it. I guess if youcan manage a horse, work cattle,and gallop across the prairie with-out falling off, you have somethingto be fairly proud of.

If youve ever been in a march-ing band or in any branch of themilitary, you probably have someexperience with marching. Thattoo is purposeful locomotion al-though somewhat tiring in thelong term. We Navy guys neverhad to march very much afterbasic training since ships arentconducive to it. There might beroom enough to march on theflight deck of a carrier, but smallerships have very few large clearareas. Thats okay. I wasnt a bigfan of marching anyway. Neitheram I fond of promenading whichspeaks of refinement and such.Swaggering is okay on occasion asis wandering, rambling, meander-ing, moseying, ambling andstrolling.

By the way, if youre feeling abit down sometime, it is good ther-apy to get out and strut or swag-ger across the prairie or down thestreet. The exercise is therapeuticas well. Give it a shot sometimeand see if it isnt so.

Incidentally and symbolicallyspeaking, leading a purposeful lifeisnt a bad idea either. Accomplish-ing useful stuff can give us a senseof self worth. Watch out, though.It might make you strut or swag-ger, and then what will peoplesay?

Searching forEconomic Recovery

It was three years ago that theObama administration dubbed thesummer of 2010 the summer ofrecovery. Three years later, manyAmericans are still searching forrecovery as our economy continuesto struggle under the weight ofstagnant economic growth, highunemployment, and dwindlinghousehold income. National un-employment remains well above 7percent, while the economy grewby just 1.7 percent in the secondquarter. The median household in-come has dropped by more than$2,700 since June of 2009, yethealth care premiums for Ameri-can families have skyrocketed bynearly $2,500.

As premiums continue to risethroughout the country, and busi-nesses reduce the number of em-ployee hours, it has becomeincreasingly clear that the presi-dents signature health care law iscrushing jobs and economicgrowth. According to a recent sur-vey conducted by Gallup, 41 per-cent of small businesses ownershave said they have held off onhiring new employees and 38 per-cent have pulled back on plans togrow their business due to Oba-maCare. According to Labor De-partment data reported by CNN

Money, The number of Americansfinding part-time jobs has surgedthis year, with more than fourtimes as many getting only part-time work as opposed to full-timejobs. In South Dakota, the SouthDakota Division of Insurance re-cently published the exchangerates for 2014, and it appears thatindividual plans on the exchangewill be significantly higher.

Instead of expending time andresources on the implementationof ObamaCare, the Obama admin-istration should be working withCongressional Republicans toenact pro-growth policies thatsimulate the economy, includingcomprehensive tax reform. Rev-enue neutral comprehensive taxreform is a critical way to increaseeconomic growth in our country.Lower tax rates will encouragework and investment, and willmake America a more attractiveplace to do business. Well-de-signed tax reform can even helpreduce the deficit by increasingeconomic growth.

In addition to tax reform, thepresident should approve the con-struction of the Keystone XLpipeline, which has been waitingfor approval for nearly five years.According to the Obama State De-partment, which is responsible forapproving the pipeline, the con-

struction of Keystone XL wouldsupport 42,000 jobs nationwideover a two year period. In SouthDakota, the pipeline would resultin significant economic benefits in-cluding $470 million in newspending for the South Dakotaeconomy, and additional state andlocal revenues of more than $10million.

Finally, the president shouldrein in onerous regulations on thebusiness community. From 2009to 2012, President Obama final-ized $518 billion in new regula-tions, which is more than thecombined gross domestic productof Portugal and Norway. Justsince January 1, 2013, the federalgovernment has published $66 bil-lion in compliance costs, and 81.2million annual paperwork burdenhours.

It is time for America to startdown the road to economic recov-ery, and that begins by enactingcomprehensive tax reform, ap-proving the Keystone XL pipeline,reining in burdensome regula-tions, and permanently delayingObamaCare for all Americans.Working together to promote thesepolicies and to cut spending anddebt, we can grow the economyand create jobs and opportunityfor American workers, families,and small businesses.

Honoring ourFighting Aces

Words will never be enough toshow the depth of my gratitude to-wards our veterans and militarypersonnel who are actively serv-ing. I cant help but fill with prideas I travel across South Dakotaand meet men and women whohave bravely stepped up to defend

this great country. In fact, over72,000 veterans call South Dakotahome and it is because of these he-roes that families across our statecan wake up in the greatest nationin the world.

All of our nations veterans de-serve to be treated with the honorand respect they deserve, which iswhy I have and will continue tosupport legislation in Congressthat assists veterans and honorstheir service. Recently, I cospon-sored H.R. 685, the AmericanFighter Aces Congressional GoldMedal Act, which specifically hon-ors our nations fighter pilots.

Fighter pilots are credited withdestroying five or more confirmedenemy aircraft in aerial combat.

More than 60,000 fighter pilotshave served in the Armed Forces,but less than 1,500 have been hon-ored with the prestigious title ofFighter Ace. Ten aces were born inSouth Dakota, including GovernorJoseph Joe Foss, the second-highest scoring ace in the Marine

Corps, and Cecil Harris, the sec-ond-highest scoring ace in theNavy. As South Dakotans, weshould be proud to say that thebest of the best have called ourstate home. I fly into and out ofJoe Foss Field in Sioux Falls whenIm traveling to Washington, D.C.Every landing and take-off re-minds me of our states veteransand one of our greatest flying aces.

The American Fighter AcesCongressional Gold Medal Act willallow for the presentation of a sin-gle gold medal in honor of thesebrave pilots and their incredibleachievements. This medal would

then be given to the SmithsonianInstitution for display and re-search. Bronze duplicates will besold by the U.S. Mint to cover thecost of the initial gold medal.

This group of elite fighters isalso one of the most highly deco-rated military groups in Americanhistory. Twenty-two achieved therank of Admiral in the Navy, 79achieved the rank of General in

the Army, Marines and Air Forceand 19 fighter aces have beenawarded the Medal of Honor, in-cluding Joe Foss.

Im proud to support this bill,and to support our men andwomen in uniform. If you know ofa veteran who is having difficultyreceiving a military medal orneeds assistance with benefitsclaims, please contact one of myoffices so we can help. Those need-ing assistance should visit mywebsite at http://noem.house.govfor more information or call one ofmy offices.

Save the Llamas

Those in attendance on Mon-day, August 12 to review and com-ment on the City of KadokaZoning Ordinances were given avoluminous document consistingof some 48 pages with maps show-ing the efforts of the well meaningcommittee who have been workingwith the Central South DakotaEnhancement District (EPA) andtheir representative. None couldexamine the document before themeeting but even cursory exami-

nation of the definitions would in-cline one to ask questions. Ofcourse, this is said to be our planbut I doubt that any in Kadoka oron the committee could originatesuch a sophisticated, all encom-passing document.

We were assured that the planwould not cause any pain at theoutset as all existing situationswould be grandfathered. One ofthe more humorous moments waswhen the planner was questioned

about three llamas in city limits.The planner said that if one wereno longer there and not replacedwithin one year that there couldnever be an additional llama.Facetiously, suppose that one ofthe three dies and is not replacedtimely. What would happen ifthere was a blessed event after ayear? Would the owner have toapply for a variance - or sendmama llama to planned parent-hood?

Humor aside, there are manyserious questions about what

would happen if you chose to sellyour home which was not in com-pliance but grandfathered atthe time the ordinance waspassed? Would one have to bringthe house up to compliance beforeit could be sold? Many houses inthis town would not comply withthe requirements for side or backyards and never have. The planspecifies how high fences shouldbe around homes and salvageyards which now are not in line

with the plan. There are manymore regulatory pitfalls propertyowners could fall into. Some couldrequire the expensive services ofan engineer or architect beforecostly modifications.

Penalties provided for non com-pliance are set out in Section1.03.02 which provides, Thepenalty for violation of this ZoningOrdinance shall be one hundred($100) or imprisonment for notmore than thirty (30) days, orboth, and in addition the violatorshall pay all costs and expenses

involved in the case. Each andevery day that such violation con-tinues after notification may con-stitute a separate offense.

Please examine the proposedplan at the city offices. Perhapsyou too will want to ask somequestions.

Letter to the Editor

HonoringGrandparents Who

Raise TheirGrandkids?In 1978, Congress passed legis-

lation proclaiming the first Sun-day after Labor Day as NationalGrandparents Day. Presidentssince Jimmy Carter have issuedproclamations urging citizens to,in the words of President BarackObama, "honor those who havehelped shape the character of ournation, and thank these role mod-els for their immeasurable acts oflove, care and understanding."

At a stage in life when manypeople are already comfortably re-tired, some 2.7 million grandpar-ents have taken on theresponsibility of providing basicneeds for their grandchildren, ac-cording to data compiled by Gen-erations United. An alarming 21percent of these vital caregiverslive below the poverty line, eventhough 60 percent are still in theworkforce.

All told, an estimated 7.8 mil-lion children under 18 live inhouseholds headed by grandpar-ents or other relatives, includingthose whose parents are absentdue to death, substance abuse,military deployment or other rea-sons.

Ironically, even though many ofthese "grandfamilies" barelyscrape by, they save taxpayersmore than $6.5 billion each yearby keeping children out of the fos-ter care system. So it only seems

fair that many federal, state andlocal aid programs are available tohelp these guardian angels pro-

vide financial and emotionalsafety nets for their grandchil-dren.

Among the many difficultiesthese families sometimes face:

If you become your grandchild'sfoster parent, you're responsiblefor day-to-day decisions and care,although the state retains legalcustody and pays for the child'scare.

Unless you establish some formof legal relationship (custody,guardianship or adoption), theparent may be able to take yourgrandchild from your home at anytime.

In some states, it's difficult toenroll the child in school or getmedical care without some form oflegal relationship.

Most senior-only housing com-plexes don't allow child residents which is legal so some grand-

families are forced to move.However, grandfamilies may be

eligible for several federal taxcredits:

A Child Tax Credit of up to$1,000 for each qualified grand-child, provided they lived with youfor more than half the filing yearand are under 17 at year's end.If you qualify for the Earned In-come Tax Credit, you may be eligi-ble for an additional amount forgrandchildren you support.

A Child and Dependent CareCredit for childcare expenses in-

curred so you can work or seekemployment.

If you adopt your grandchil-

dren, you may be eligible for anonrefundable Federal AdoptionCredit of up to $12,970 per child.In addition, depending on your in-come and the health/disability sta-tus of your grandchildren, youmay also be eligible for benefitsfrom Medicaid, your state's Chil-dren's Health Insurance Program,the Supplemental Nutrition Assis-tance Program and numerousother federal, state and local aidprograms.

Helpful resources for grandfam-ilies include:

Grandparents Raising Grand-children, a government-sponsoredsite at. www.usa.gov, that provideslinks to various subject-matter ex-perts.

AARP's comprehensive Grand-Families Guide (at www.aarp.org).Benefits QuickLINK, an AARPtool to find out whether you or

your grandchildren qualify for 15different public benefits.

Generations United, whose"Grandfamilies" website high-lights challenges often faced bythese households(www.gu.org/OURWORK/Grand-families.aspx).

I, also would like to extend mysincere sympathy to the MelfordKoester family in the loss ofMelford Koester. Mel was a resi-dent here at nursing home and wewere so blessed to have gotten thechance to know him and assisthim with his daily needs.

I walked across an exciting parkthis evening with a mushroom anda pop can. There wasnt even oneyoungster playing there. Such a

beautiful Thursday evening, too. Ienjoyed several hands of 7-Upwith Mary Ellen Herbaugh,

Shorty Ireland, and Derald Kul-havy, before returning to myapartment. Ruth Klundt camedown to visit.

The pool is closing on the 16thfor the summer as school is gettingready to start.

I accompanied Chris and AnitaRiggins, Dylan, Stanley, andMelissa to the SDSU rodeo onSunday afternoon. Dylan tried toconvince me that one of the bullscouldnt buck that hard. Greengrass gives them a lot of pep. Westopped in Belvidere to visit withsome of the locals, Tom and Jamie.

Stanley stayed longer to visit withhis friend, Jory.

I did join many friends and rel-

atives to attend the memorialservices for Stanley Peterson onSaturday morning. He was verydeserving of the beautiful memo-rial service that was held for him.He and his wife, Frances, taughtand coached for many years andour young ones were blessed tohave them as part of their life.

I made a trip to Wall to enjoythe wedding reception of ourneighbors daughter, Melissa.

Thought of the week: Wisdom isthe best guide and faith is the bestcompanion.

Greg and Dana Badure andkids, Brisa and Martin, took athree-day vacation last week.They first went to Devils Towerand stayed at the KOA Kamp-ground there which was niceenough. Dana and the kids hikedaround the area while Greg stayedcloser to the cabin and read hisnewspaper and such. The nextnight was spent at Keyhole Lakein Wyoming some 20 miles southof Devils Tower. This is a hugelake with decent cabins. Therewas also a cliff from which you

could dive into a deep part of thelake, but that pleasure was for-gone this time around althoughDana said she wouldnt mind giv-ing it a try sometime. The goodbeach was given some use instead.

Dana said it was nice to get awayfor a little while and that they hadquite a bit of fun despite gettingrained and hailed on here andthere. Niece Felicia stayed athome, tended the goats, and keptthings running although shewasnt that fond of milking goats.

Wade Fox and Patty and kidshave been getting in some fishing.They tried the Belvidere Dam be-fore church on Sunday where theyvisited with Troy Hindman whoalso was there. They tried to snaga line with a bobber and attachedfish that they saw floating around,

but couldnt quite manage it. Theyfigure someones line broke with afish on it at some recent time.Wade said he had fairly good luckcatching perch recently in com-pany with Cole Hindman. Wadeand Patty will be spending theweek preparing for their weddingat 6:00 p.m. next Saturday in theBelvidere Park.

Kate Rasmussen (daughter ofDan and Dawn) has decided to doher senior year of high school atSheridan, Montana. She will bestaying with a high-school friendof her moms. She will also belearning how to milk Icelandicdairy sheep since the friend hassome seventy of those. Kates pur-pose in this is to establish resi-dency in Montana so she can getin-state tuition for college at Boze-man, Montana. They have a goodzoology program which has caughtKates eye since that subject is ofgreat interest to her. The school inSheridan is about the same size asKadoka.

Chris and Terry Baldwin andgirls have made a couple of trips toRapid City latelymostly to keepdoctors appointments. In one ofthese, Chloe had a fairly thoroughheart exam which seemed to showeverything was fine in that area.School physicals were also done inpreparation for the start of schoolnext week. Other than that, Chrishas been working with his beeswhich involves some day work andsome night. Moving bees is usuallydone at night and tending can beduring the day. This week, some ofthe bees were moved north of Mid-

land near a large sunflower field.Alfalfa is also blooming again, butChris said alfalfa has good andbad aspects in the honey business.It makes good enough honey, butright now the nectar is so liquidthat it takes the bees quite a whileto boil it down into honey. This isa bit similar to maple syrup fromwhich excess water also needs tobe removed by boiling. The bees dothe work here, though, and not thehumans.

Chuck and Merry Willard hadtheir daughter, Niki Kleinsasser,and her two kids, Caleb and

Joshua, home this weekend fromHot Springs. They thought theyhad better get in one more niceweekend before school starts.Caleb, who is five, was pleased tobe allowed to ride a horse all byhimself. Before there had alwaysbeen someone leading him with ahalter rope so now he feels moregrown up. Fishing was given a gobut Merry said they got skunkedon that and caught nothing. Thekids enjoyed jumping on the tram-poline especially when a sprinklerwas set up under it. Cucumberswere picked on Sunday afternoon,but Merry said she was going torustle the vines with a stick beforepicking since shes still a little gunshy about rattlers thanks to onehaving bitten her a little whileago.

Ruth Ann Niehoff had all herdaughters here for a bit. Abby andDonya drove in from Carson City,Nevada and spent about ten daysat the ranch. They each have ayoung son, and their names areParker and Gavin. Beka camefrom South Bend, Indiana withher fianc, Debin, for a weekendwhile her sisters were here. Onlyone son, Andrew, was around dur-ing that time but hes been withRuth Ann all summer. The groupplayed tourist part of the timewith visits to the Badlands, Mt.Rushmore, Storybook Island, andthe like. They also had a birthdayparty.

Frank Carlson and his cowboyfriends won second at the ranchrodeo at White River this week-end. They got firsts at both Murdo

and Lower Brule earlier this sum-

Kadoka high school student Fos-ter Berry got a chance to get out ofthe classroom and explore oppor-tunities that can come from a de-gree in metallurgy and materials

science this summer.Berry attended the ASM: Mate-rials, Metallurgy, and Forensicssummer camp with fifteen othercampers from around the countryat the South Dakota School ofMines and Technology July 24-29in Rapid City, SD.

ASM: Materials, Metallurgy,and Forensics is 5-day academicsummer camp that gets studentsthinking about science and engi-neering through activities likeblacksmithing, welding, materials

testing, and field trips. Dr.Michael West, department headand professor of engineering forthe School of Mines Materials andMetallurgical Engineering De-

partment, designed, coordinated,and teaches the camp."This hands-on camp takes stu-

dents out of the classroom and re-ally shows them what it's like to bea metallurgical engineer," Westsaid. "The purpose is to have fun,but also to learn."

Campers aren't just learningabout science. They're preparingfor future degrees and careers.Goldcorp provided a tour of theirWharf gold mine in Lead.

The campers also toured the

RPM and Associates manufactur-ing facility in Rapid City andspoke with Mines graduates.

The camp was also made possi-ble by generous contributions from

ASM International and StructuralIntegrity, the John T. VucurevichFoundation, and the ClarksonFamily Foundation, who providedscholarships for eligible students.

Midwest finalizes spill cleanup

Clean up is complete for the vandalism-caused chemical spill of 500 gallons of Durango herbicide on March 25at Midwest Cooperative in Philip. The dir t, rock and concrete chunks were immediately excavated from below thestorm sewer near the Highway 73 bridge. None of the contaminant reached the Bad River. The previous rip-raphas now been replaced with large pink boulders, called classy rip-rap. All done. That was the last thing we hadto do, said Philip site manager Jay Baxter. All interested government departments have signed off and are verypleased with the way Cenex Harvest States has handled this incident. Baxter added that the company wantedto leave the area better than it was before, thus the 2,000 to 2,500 pound pink boulders. Theyre pretty coolrocks, said Baxter. One was donated to the Senechal Park for decoration. We still dont know what happened,but we appreciate the interest that we received over this, because it brought better understanding for us and thepublic how to try to keep something like this from happening again, said Baxter. Diffierent storage proceduresfor the shuttle containers are being looked into, and other precautions are being taken that no accidental releasewill happen again.

Read Romans 6:17-23It is normal for children, at some point, to become aware of growing

stronger. Lets see your muscles, a parent will say. The child bends an arm,

makes a fist, and proudly displays the evidence. Parents often encouragetheir children to increase strength and overcome any weakness. Some young-sters cooperate, but others act indifferent or feel defeated even before theystart.

We all have weak areas in our lives. How do we respond to them? Do wemake a plan to overcome them? Do we pretend they are unimportant or sur-render to them without much effort? None of these responses is what Goddesires for us. He wants our weaknesses to remind us how totally dependentwe are upon His strength and how great our need is for Him. His plan is forour frailties to be a powerful motivator to deepen our relationship with Him.

Handled improperly, those areas in which we lack ability can become stum-bling blocks that hurt us and those around us. A proper responsenamely,turning to Godmeans He will take charge of our weaknesses and no longerallow them to dominate our lives.

Samson was a man whom God set apart and equipped for divine purposes.But he had an uncontrollable weakness, which he allowed to run uncheckeduntil it destroyed his work for the Lord (Judg. 13-16). We, as Christ-followers,have also been set apart for Gods work and equipped by Him. We shouldheed the warning of Samsons life and turn quickly to God every time ourweakness surfaces. Delay could mean disaster.

Financial Tip of The Week:

Pay Attention

Enjoying a casual evening athome, I reclined in my favoriteeasy chair reading, while the Gra-cious Mistress of the Parsonagewas chatting on the telephone. Irarely pay attention to telephoneconversations. After all, I only getone side of the conversation, whichmay be misleading at the verybest. I've been caught in that trapbefore with some pretty dire con-sequences. I'm not going to getcaught again.

Then an odd phrase caught myattention: "plastic surgery." Myears perked up and I heard mywife say, "I certainly agree withthat article and I'm going to dosome plastic surgery myself."

Well, you can imagine whatthoughts were racing through myhead. When she hung up the tele-phone, I queried her about it.

In my book, plastic surgery is abig step.

"You do support me in this plas-tic surgery plan, don't you?"

There are times to disagreewith your spouse, but as a hus-band for over 40 years, I havenever discovered that time. Forc-

ing a smile, I nodded in the affir-mative and told her she had myfull support in whatever she de-cided.

I had to admit that the "time"had finally come to our humbleabode. Who am I to fight it? I go bythis motto, "He who smiles andagrees with his spouse lives tosmile another day."

I plan to smile until the day Idie.

I never really thought aboutplastic surgery, but perhaps mywife was right. Perhaps she coulduse a little face-lift. For me to geta facelift, the surgeons would needa huge construction crane. Thencomes the awkward part, what dothey do with my face after it waslifted?

Women, more than men, are alittle sensitive about their appear-ance. For a man, "appearance"means he showed up. A womanhas an altogether different ap-proach to the term "appearance."

Some women look in the mirrorand see where some improve-ments could be made. For exam-ple, they see bags under their eyesthat could not get through the air-

port carry-on luggage size require-ment.

Then there is the problem withtheir nose, which could stand a lit-tle tweaking. For all practical pur-poses, one of those double chinshas to go. Moreover, what womancouldn't use a tummy tuck andother snippings of the flesh?

Believe me; I never would havebrought it up, but if that makesmy wife happy, then whatever itcosts, we can put it on a creditcard. The only problem with put-ting something like this on a creditcard is that by the time you pay itoff you need another procedure.

She is worth it in my checkbook.I have no compunction whatsoeverof writing out that check.

Each day I checked the appoint-ment calendar hanging on our re-frigerator to find out when shewould be going in for the surgery.Daily I looked, but could neverfind any appointment.

I supposed she was sensitiveabout the whole thing and did notwant it staring at her day afterday on the appointment calendar.Whatever the reason, she had mysilent support, for all that wasworth. I am sure she would do thesame for me. That is what mar-riage is all about. Supporting oneanother in the developments oflife, whatever that developmentmight be.

I decided to tuck this little bit inthe back of my mind and, howeverit developed would be all rightwith me.

One day this week, I went to theSlurp N' Burp Caf for a quietlunch. The issue was far from my

mind as I enjoyed a deliciousrepast. As I finished my last cup ofcoffee, the waitress brought mybill and I pulled my wallet out topay for it.

In searching my wallet for acredit card I discovered, much tomy double chagrin, that therewere no credit cards to be found.Somehow, I'd lost my credit cards.Perhaps, in the morning when I

was getting dressed, they droppedout of my wallet as I was placingit in my trousers.

The problem with that theorywas that all the other cards in mywallet were intact.

Fortunately, I had my cellphone and called my wife.

"Honey, I've lost all my creditcards. I'm here at the restaurantand I can't find any credit cards inmy wallet. Do you have any ideawhat I did with my credit cards?"

"I cut them all up.""You did what?""You said you supported my

plastic surgery plan, didn't you?""But, I thought...""You, thought what?"Oh boy.Dear reader: please disregard

the first part of this column. If youhappen to read my obituary innext week's newspaper, you willknow that my lovely, vivacious,eternally youthful wife did not dis-regard the first part and I'm cur-rently Resting In Pieces.

I must confess that my hearingis good; it is my understandingthat falls so far short. The only ex-ercise I am really good at is "jump-ing-to-conclusions."

This is common among manypeople who call themselves Chris-tians. Their hearing is good buttheir "doing," is not up to par.

The apostle James understoodthis truth quite well. He writes,"But be ye doers of the word, andnot hearers only, deceiving yourown selves" James 1:22 (KJV).

It is not so much what you hearthat pays dividends in life, butwhat you do.
