Then, we can meet in about another month,” said David Thomson, program manager for the Midwest Region’s Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance program. He said that his program works outside of parks, helping communities with their projects. “We don’t have very many grants that come through us. We help peo- ple find grants out there,” said Thomson. Representatives from the city, county, local businesses and other Philip groups were given a brief overview of what the rivers and trails program has helped accom- plish in South Dakota and other states. The Midwest Region, based out of Omaha, Neb., includes South Dakota, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and North Dakota. Kenny Points, a rivers and parks intern with several projects under his belt, will stay with any future Philip project. Thomson will also remain involved, though to a somewhat lesser degree. The RTCA program is the com- munity assistance branch of the National Park Service. It offers technical expertise on community- led natural resource conservation and outdoor recreation projects, so communities can conserve rivers, preserve open space and develop trails and greenways. Points said that assistance is provided for one year and may be renewed for a second year, if war- ranted. There are experts in the re- gion office ready to assist Philip. Their various trail backgrounds range from bicycling to equestrian to water transportation. Commu- nity goals are advanced from con- ceptual plans to workable plans. The program identifies potential sources of funding, all to teach hands-on conservation. The pro- gram is geared to help build part- nerships to set goals through con- sensus. Murdo is taking advantage of the RTCA program with a recreational trail around a lake south of town. Whitewood is expanding and mak- ing handicap friendly a current trail around its under used, 40-acre city park. Philip’s Don Burns summarized, “You’re not really coming with money, but with assistance. When there is money there, we have to be in a position for it; (you’re offering) a year’s worth of expertise.” Thomsen agreed, “Usually we are connecting people to grant sources. That says a lot to the grant people, if you are ready to be com- mitted.” Local groups select the trails or rivers that they would like to con- serve. The RTCA program does not own or manage any of the land or projects; that is the job of the local organization. Some communities have created brochures connected to their trail project, which list local businesses and phone num- bers, and list the area’s different festivals and events. Before the Philip meeting, Thom- sen and Points toured the area, being shown some of the commu- nity’s possibilities for trail projects. They were told of the 2015 side- walk project up Larimar Avenue, which will be elderly friendly. They were shown the area that used to be a park south of town. They were shown the triangular piece of land between the baseball diamonds and the western Welcome to Philip sign. And, they were shown the small areas around town that could be somehow connected, such as Fire Hall Park, Old School Park, Haakon County Young Women’s Kiddie Park, Lasting Legacy and other areas. “If you get into state or federal funds, all the limitations are laid out,” said Points. “I’m all for con- necting all your hubs, your parks and monuments.” “I know that the biggest objec- tion I ran into was the mainte- nance issue,” said Philip’s Tanya McIlravy. Points said that, with good planning, any maintenance could be minimalized. In offering some feel for the direction of future plans, McIlravy added, “A thing that Horizons is going for is a front porch gathering place.” Philip’s Trish Larson inquired about the next steps, “So, after the community input, what part does the community play?” She was con- cerned about getting everyone on board right away, especially those who kept up the parks or own land. “At what point do you get hold of the landowners ... your land is in our plan? The first place they see it should not be in the newspaper.” The year’s worth of assistance from the RTCA does not really begin until a Philip area coalition is represented and a list of possible plans can be narrowed. A Philip area trail, with expertise from National Park Service’s RTCA Representatives of local governmental and community organizations discussed possible expertise assistance offered by the Rivers, Trails and Conservation As- sistance program on any consensus-based trail project. Photo by Del Bartels by Del Bartels The Haakon School District’s Board of Education meeting, Mon- day, November 19, was held after members had gathered earlier in the afternoon with the administra- tion for annual tour of the Philip school buildings. More contracts have been offi- cially approved for winter sports. Brad Haynes is the assistant boys’ basketball coach. Deb Smith is the yearbook advisor. Tayta West is the junior high girls’ basketball coach. Keven Morehart is the assis- tant wrestling coach. The position of the junior high boys’ basketball coach will be formally approved later. The board went into executive session to discuss personnel issues. No action was taken. The month’s substitute teacher pay, for an equivalent of 45.5 days, came to $3,998.98. The month’s wages for the district, with a total of 2,348.33 hours worked, came to a total of $25,668.08. In his secondary principal’s re- port, Mike Baer announced that November 21 was midterms for the instructors and students. Reports will be tabulated during the week after Thanksgiving. Baer listed several recent accom- plishments. The FFA natural re- sources team earned seventh place in the nation. Philip High School won the eight-school academic challenge. There will be a sixth, seventh and eigth grade academic challenge in January. Matt Don- nelly was recognized as teacher of the year by the South Dakota Asso- ciation for Health, Physical Educa- tion, Recreation and Dance. Ban- ners, plaques and team photos are being put up in different places in the school. The team photos will not include only sports, but will in- clude such groups as the FFA, FCCLA, all school play, National Honor Society and others. Each photo will be replaced with the next year’s group photo when that particular season comes around. The Department of Education has requested input from the dis- trict in producing a webinar, be- cause the Haakon students scored so well on a benchmark pretest. The test was given to be used as a benchmark, thus used to mark later strived for improvements by the students and the school. Such a spectacular showing leaves less room in order to show improve- ment. “It’s still good news to us,” said Baer. The new guided study hall pro- gram had several students test out of certain subject areas. “There’s no ramifications for not trying on the South Dakota State Test of Educa- tional Progress,” said Baer. “We had some kids who really wanted to get off of that (the guided study hall).” Semester tests will be held De- cember 19-20. Seniors will take se- mester tests. In his superintendent’s report, Keven Morehart added that a fifth grade, sixth grade and junior high band and choir concert will be pre- sented at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, No- vember 27. A Dakota Assembly will be held at 8:00 a.m. Thursday, No- vember 29, with Paul Imholte per- forming on a large variety of stringed instruments, including the jaw harp. The public is encour- aged to attend both. Board member Anita Peterson reported on the Associated School Boards of South Dakota. Their goals during the upcoming legisla- tive session will include improved school funding, promoting common core curriculum but with funding behind it, supporting local control in managing school districts, and correcting the current direction of school nutrition. Concerning school lunches, Pe- terson relayed an analogy. Take a pound of hamburger and cut it in half, then cut it in half again for a quarter pound hamburger. The fed- eral government wants to cut that in half again, and that is what you are feeding students so they can learn and play sports. Peterson re- ported that some parents, espe- cially of football players, may have to pay for more food themselves. The next scheduled meeting for the board of education will be at 6:00 p.m., Monday, December 17, in room A-1 of the Philip High School. School board hears district’s recent accomplishmments The Philip chapter of Family, Career and Community Leaders of America is again sponsoring its community Maggie Grace Angel Tree. This is Philip FCCLA’s 15th year sponsoring the Angel Tree. The tree was set up at the Haakon County Court- house, November 26. Maggie Grace was born in 2002 to Doug and Karen Mehlhaff, Rapid City. She died suddenly from complications of a very rare respi- ratory bacteria. The angel tree is dedicated in Maggie's memory in the hope that needy children in the area will be shown the spirit and love of Christmas. The Philip FCCLA chapter, in conjunction with the local churches and the Haakon Com- munity Health office, will distribute the donations to children in need in the Philip area. Gifts beyond our community need will be distributed by the Jackson Com- munity Health office and the Bennett County foster child program. “Last year the response was very generous, with nearly 300 gifts,” said Brigitte Brucklacher, Philip FCCLA advisor. “We hope this year’s giving equals that generosity, as there are many families and programs in need because of the economy.” To donate to the project, leave an unwrapped toy, book or new article of clothing under the tree located next to the Extension office in the courthouse before 4:00 p.m., Wednesday, December 19. Gifts are for children ages infant to teenage. If you know of a child in need in our community or would like more information, contact Brucklacher at the Philip High School, 859-2680.

The recognition was presented dur- ing an annual banquet held Satur- day, November 17. SDFB also presented the Friend of Agriculture award to Olson’s Motor Co. in Clark, Southwest Grain in Lemmon, and Paul’s Feed and Seed in Faith. SDFB is a grassroots agriculture organization representing more than 13,000 member families across the state. Founded in 1917, SDFB works to represent, uphold, and improve the state’s number one industry – agriculture.

Lookin’ Around by Syd Iwan

Motion catches the eye. Which ofus hasn’t been trailing cattleacross the prairie only to have yourattention drawn to a coyote streak-ing away to safer quarters? Maybeinstead it was a deer or rabbitbouncing away or a grouse flyingup right in front of you. Even ifyou’ve never trailed cattle or beenon a horse, the same principle ap-plies to just taking a walk or driv-ing down the road. If somethingmoves, you tend to see it. What’s more, once you’ve noticedsomething in motion, you mightcontinue to gaze at it if it’s inter-esting. Lots of times I’ve paused tolook at deer leaping over fences.They’re quite graceful and enjoy-able to watch. Rabbits playing inthe yard are similar. They oftenrace around playing tag, or theymight jump straight up into the airas if scared to death which theyaren’t. They’re just having fun. Ahorse running full tilt is pleasingto see as well – strength and graceall at the same time. Little calvesgamboling about in the springtimeare nifty too. People are often fun to observe,and sometimes I have trouble notstaring. That is supposedly impo-lite. Have you even noticed thatyoung men tend to strut a bit, es-pecially those of the cowboy per-suasion? Dress a young fellow incowboy boots, spurs, jeans, cowboyshirt and hat, and they’re apt tostrut. Other times they saunterand act really cool. Noticing eithercan bring a smile to my face. Then you have the graceful peo-ple. They move as if doing somekind of slow dance. Women are abit better at this than men, butsome men have an easy grace aswell. I remember noticing a youngfellow shinny up a tall auger oneday. He did it quickly and effort-lessly. I just stared in appreciationat the strength and agility that al-lowed him to do it. How about watching kids on aplayground? They’re apt to be run-ning, jumping, chasing each other,screaming, laughing and havingsuch a grand time. It helps one toremember that it’s okay to havefun from time to time. Sometimeswe forget how to do that and needa reminder. This is not to say that all motion

is attractive. Take slithering, forexample. Unless you are a majorfan of snakes, you might not carefor slithering. Snakes tend to creepme out so noticing their movementdoes nothing for me except to sendme running for a hoe to beheadthem and stop them from movingever again. My moves in killingsnakes might not be that great toexamine either since they are aptto be hard and fast and perhapswith just a touch of loathing ormaybe a dram or two of panic. Crab-like locomotion is some-what disturbing too. Why can’tthose that use it walk straight likeeveryone else? Fluttering, ofcourse, can occasionally get onyour nerves such as when millerscircle repeatedly around a light orin your face. You usually just wantto shout, “Stop that!” If they don’t,you may be somewhat prone tograbbing a swatter or newspaperand making them quit. Some people enjoy seeing objectstravel at high speeds such as youmight find at the NASCAR races.It doesn’t do much for me, eitherwhen seeing it or doing it. It’s finewith airplanes since they need acertain amount of forward move-ment to keep themselves fromdropping out of the sky. Vehiclesdon’t have that rationale. I recall afew years ago when I drove 95MPH for about 15 miles on thefreeway trying to keep up with anambulance containing my son andwife. Going that fast made me de-cidedly nervous. I wasn’t used to it.After a bit I decided I’d rather getto the hospital safely than not atall and slowed down to more man-ageable levels. Since then, I’vebeen fairly content with the 75MPH freeway speed limit with oc-casional downhill bursts to 78. Anyway, to get the full effect ofmy hypothesis that motion attractsthe eye, you probably should gooutside now and sit on the porch ordeck for a bit. I’d bet you willmostly look at things that are mov-ing such as birds in the air, vehi-cles driving close by or in the dis-tance, floating clouds, grass rip-pling in the breeze, people and crit-ters moving about, and the like.Sometimes it’s fun to just sit andwatch the world go by. Give it atry. You might like it.

Eye of an angel ... by Del Bartels

The little girl was full of joy and fear, as her father held her under

her arms and raised her high over his head. She could just reach the

top of the Christmas tree. Her arms outstretched, she lowered the cone

like robe of the antique ornament over the top branch. The girl never

forgot how the light glistened off of the porcelain angel’s eyes.

As years went by, she didn’t realize how the two of them struggled.

Compared with two parent families, their Christmases were almost

bare. The tree itself was often a gift from a landowner who let them

cut it down. The girl loved going with her father to get it. Afterward,

the hot chocolate helped rewarm her tingling feet and numb fingers.

Gifts were mostly needed clothing, but there was always something

for her that was handmade by father. As her birthdays grew, those

gifts changed from wooden dolls and miniature furniture to a lovingly

made hope chest.

The Christmas of her last year in high school, she gracefully bal-

anced on a chair to place the tree’s angel. College, even with all her

hard-earned grades, savings, scholarships and loans, would be a penny

pinching trial. In exchange for everything that he could spare, her fa-

ther insisted she simply do well. She had to bum rides from classmate

friends, but she got back each Christmas to be father.

She fell in love. The wedding present from father was the Christmas

ornament angel; she cried. The couple lived so far away, but a few

years later, he could visit over Christmas and he seemed so happy that

she was expecting. He had brought her cherished dolls and miniature

furniture, each carefully resanded and repainted. A few years later,

though his hands were growing less sure and nimble, she was so proud

when he held his granddaughter up so she take her turn at being the

one to place the porcelain angel on the tree.

A son was born. Years went by. Visits from father and to father’s

place were precious. Her husband and she did well, which seemed to

cause her father to walk a bit lighter. Still, his handmade gifts for

Christmas were better than all the lavish and extravagant packages

under the tree. Her own children grew and began their own lives.

The time had come. Her father would make no more gifts. He would

no longer raise a child, nor watch anyone else raise a child, to place

the angel at the top of the Christmas tree.

She sat in the spacious living room, with so much family all around.

She joyfully handed to her children and grandchildren decorations for

them to put on the tree. Finally, only the porcelain angel remained.

Gingerly taking it, her son gently put it in the hands of his tiny daugh-

ter, who showed joy and fear at being raised so high. She stretched out

and lowered the cone like robe of the angel over the top branch.

Granddaughter, grandmother, angel ... everyone else noted how the

light glistened off of her eyes.

Dear Editor, I was reading Blast from thePast 84 years ago, when I cameacross a line in the third paragraphthat tickled my funny bone. The newsperson was relatingthat friends had gathered to give anewly wed couple a “rousing chari-var.” I’m quite sure they meantchivaree. Merriam Webster had no listingfor charivari. Even so, I think I’d bea little hesitant in rousing one.

Letter to

the Editor

by Del Bartels Sonja Crowley, Joe Heimer andtheir spouses stayed in Philip, No-vember 19-21, to take in somepheasant hunting. Dakota RanchOutfitters had donated a huntingexcursion to a Women Against Vio-lence, Inc. fundraiser auction. TheCrowley party had won the one-daypheasant trip. Donating to a worthy cause;hunting pheasant; visiting Philip;all these are run-of-the-mill occur-rences. The story of Crowley andHeimer, though, is not a run-of-the-mill story. In November of 1996, Heimer, anexperienced guide, was leadingCrowley on an elk hunt just northof Yellowstone National Park. Backthen, Crowley was from Chamber-lain, though now lives in RapidCity. Heimer, now from Montana,used to live in Dupree. Below is a brief summary of theirstory that was published as a chap-ter in the book Mark of the Grizzlyby Scott McMillion. On the elk hunt, the two firstsaw the grizzly bear from about 60feet away. Its cubs were fartherback. Trying to back off, the twohunters were charged by the bear.Heimer, who was carrying hisclient’s rifle, got off one shot, butthe bear tackled him, knocking thegun away and tearing into his legs.The grizzly dropped him, and thenattacked Crowley. It grabbed herby the head, crushing her jaw andtearing apart her face. Crowley re-membered hearing the teethcrunching into her head. Heimer staggered to the gun, butcouldn’t fire because he might hitCrowley as the bear was whippingher body around. The bear finallydropped Crowley and ran back to-ward its cubs. Heimer started giving first aid toCrowley, wrapping his shirtaround her mangled face. She fran-tically pointed; the grizzly wascoming back. This time, Heimerput a round through the bear’sshoulder and it dropped, but it gotup and charged again. The third,up-close shot put it down for good. After a year, Crowley had done

much of the recovery from her in-juries, physical and mental. Shelost an eye, and the left side of herface is a bit limp. Heimer recoveredmore quickly, and received theMontana Outfitters and Guides As-sociation’s guide of the year awardfor his actions. Since 1996, the couples get to-

gether at least once a year. ThePhilip hunting trip happened to beon Heimer’s birthday. Though thisis their first real stop in Philip, “Wedrive through here all the time,”said Crowley. Heimer added abouttheir trips since 1996, “We havemore fun, that’s for sure.”

Reducing Wind Erosion Seeing local crop fields that suf-fered from wind erosion during thehigh winds in late-October seemsmild compared to the dust bowldays of the dirty thirties, recentlyportrayed in the PBS documen-tary, “The Dust Bowl.” If youmissed the documentary, pre-miered November 18 and 19 onPBS, you can download it fromiTunes, and/or read about, viewpictures and video clips on thePBS website: http://www.pbs.org/kenburns/dustbowl/. The question was raised in thedocumentary, and occasionally indiscussions, could it happen again?The general feeling is, thanks toconservation practices that havebeen applied, the advent of no-tillfarming practices, and other ad-vances, certainly not to the scalethat it did in the 30s. In localizedareas, however, wind erosion canbe severe, lower soil productivityand increase the costs of producingcrops. Wind erosion physically re-moves the most fertile part of thesoil (organic matter, clay, and silt).Blowing soil can reduce seedlingsurvival and growth, depress crop

yields, and increase the suscepti-bility of plants to certain types ofstress, including diseases. Winderosion also adversely affects peo-ple not directly connected to theland, by polluting the air, fillingroad ditches, deteriorating waterquality, causing automobile acci-dents, and many other problems. Although the 2012 drought hasleft few options available to farm-ers with little or no residue on cropfields, over the long term, thereare three main practices that havebeen identified to reduce wind ero-sion. Reduce the wind velocity at thesoil surface. Wind speed as low assix mph one foot above the soil sur-face can start the movement of soilparticles with highly erodible fieldconditions (smooth, bare, loose, dryand finely granulated particles).Wind speed increasing from 20mph to 30 mph triples the rate oferosion. Wind velocity at the soilsurface can be reduced with wind-breaks, crop residue, cover crops,surface roughness and strip crop-ping. Maintaining crop residue on thesoil surface and/or ridging orroughing the soil surface will trap

moving soil particles and reduceerosion. The smallest soil particlescan be lifted from the soil surface,suspended, and carried manymiles before falling. Larger parti-cles can be dislodged and movedacross the soil surface in a bounc-ing or jumping manner, often dis-lodging other particles from thesurface, causing a cumulative ef-fect. Finally, increasing the size ofsoil aggregates requires a strongerwind to move soil and cause soilerosion. The size of soil aggregatescan be increased by using crop ro-tations that include grasses andlegumes, growing high-residuecrops and returning the residue tothe soil, or leaving it on the soilsurface, applying manure, and re-ducing or eliminating tillage. Ifwind erosion is occurring, and/orconditions are such that the occur-rence seems inevitable, emergencytillage can bring large, stable clodsto the soil surface if soil moistureand texture allow it.

*** Saturday, November 17, at Som-erset Court, we had exercises andwe received generous SomersetCourt bucks. In the afternoon there was atable of whist with Irene Cox, IreneArbach, Ina Oerlline and FloyOlson playing. Quiddler wasplayed by Addie, Margaret andSusan. M.R Hansen came forscrabble. It was the 89th birthdayof LaVerne Wirth. Happy birthday,LaVerne. Several staff membersgathered around and sang happybirthday, gave her a miniaturebirthday cake, a signed card andSomerset bucks. Somerset Court resident AgnesTastad received a birthday cardfrom my niece, Wanda and EdArtz. They said hello to Aunt Vi. Sohello right back. Maxine Kilmer just brought mea copy of “The Gambler,” which herson, Mike, had just brought to her.I had asked her if she had thatsong. So I am very happy to have it.Thank you, Maxine and Mike. The Philip Pioneer Review forNovember 15, 2012, had a big newsitem about this week’s sale atPhilip Livestock Auction. Over1,700 head of cattle were trucked infrom Montana, and the total saleswere above $3 million. Have you read, “Nothing to Eat,”by Slim Pickins? Or, “Timber,” byHugh Downs? But seriously, Iwould like to read “When ZacharyBeaver Came to Town” by Kim-berly Holt. I was reading one of my 2002journals, the time I went to Col-orado Springs with Casey and fam-ily. I also visited at my daughter,Carol and Al Vogan’s. Al took meover east of their place a couplemiles whree there are spectacularrock formations. Wind there iscapricious. It rolls little rocks

around within a “dish” of a biggerrock. I brought one set of thesehome to Philip with me, and I sup-pose it is there yet. I stayed amonth of so, and then Carol and Altook me to Ogallala, Neb., and myson, David, came with his smallairplane and took me to Philip. Ittook less than two hours fromOgallala to Philip. Sunday, November 18, 2012, atSomerset Court, we had a greatnoon meal with ham and sweet po-tatoes and pumpkin pie. We played a lot of whist with dif-ferent residents filling in asneeded. There was Ina Oerlline,Irene Arbach, Irene Cox, MaryLou, Margaret and Vivian. Also anadaption was carried on whenthere were only three players, theyplayed clubs are trump (sometimescalled widow whist). In the afternoon, we had nonde-nominational church services withSteve, Terry and Ardyce and JackHumke played the piano and wesang Thanksgiving hymns, “NowThank We All Our God” and “ComeThou Fount of Every Blessing.” We should list all the things thatwe are thankful for and pray forthose who are miserable. We arevery thankful to have a clean,warm and beautiful place to live.We are thankful that we haveearned enough money to be able tolive here or that our children canafford to pay our rent. We forgetabout the people who live underbridges or are in prison. Thanksgiving is a time when wethink first of all the turkey. Wehave been raised that way, and initself, that is a delightful tradition.But, let us be sure to share some ofour good fortune. M.R. and Barbara Hansen hadme over for supper on Sundaynight. The occasion was a send offfor Wayne Hansen, who is goingout to California for the winter. Hejoins his wife, Gwynn, at their newhouse in Rancho Palos Verdes, andof course their son and family livenearby. Thank you, M.R. and Barbfor having me over and thanks toWayne for bringing me back toSomerset Court. It was pleasant to read in theRapid City Journal for November18, 2012, about the wonderfulmusic program at South DakotaSchool of Mines. The School ofMines has the use of an 1859Grand Steinway, a square grandpiano, and two other excellent pi-anos.

I am sitting at my laptop com-puter at the Ortman Hotel and notsure just how it will go for thisweek’s Midland News column. It isfunny how you get used to the com-puter and keyboard you use eachweek and when you try another it’sas if you are all thumbs. I evenhave a separate keyboard I’m usingbecause not being used to typing ona laptop I really have trouble mak-ing my fingers work. Heard Valen-tine, Neb., got seven inches of snowSunday evening. There were a fewflurries fluffing around in Canis-tota this morning. It is that time ofthe year. Pastor Frezil Westerlund had ameaningful message at the funeralservice of Roy Roseth Wednesday.There was a huge crowd of familyand friends there to pay their lastrespects. And as Pastor Freziltalked of Roy being so proud of hisNorwegian heritage, how much itmeant to him, and what a legacythose Norwegians have given us. Icouldn’t help but think of our an-cestors and the legacy they havegiven us who came after. Mybrother, Phil Meyers, told of hismemories of being on the Rosethranch, and of Roy and Clara. Andthose meaningful songs sung byShirley Halligan, as she and herhusband, Frank, played their gui-tars, had a message all their own.I enjoyed meeting some of theOlson relatives from Bristol. Roy’smother, Mary Roseth, was anOlson. They were enjoying seeingrelatives they hadn’t seen for sometime. And that’s the way it is whenfamily come together. Roy is atpeace now. He was ready to go.There is a feeling of loss whensomeone we love dies, but there isalso comfort in knowing that per-son is set free from what their lifehad become. Ed and Linda Eisenbraun, RapidCity, Steve Reiman, Patrick andBecca, Mandan, N.D., Maynardand Anne Moege, Mitchell, andMark Reiman, Kadoka, wereThanksgiving guests at the home ofKarel Reiman.

Theyhad been in Pierre to the home ofEllie’s sister, Beth and Brad Handand family for Thanksgiving. Slateand Ashley also stopped in at Clintand Prerry’s, having lunch and vis-iting. In visiting with Maxine Jones byphone, checking for Thanksgivingnews, she said she has been underthe weather so wasn’t able to go tothe home of Bob and Verona Evansfor dinner. But, Shorty had gone,and Verona had sent food homewith him, so she got in on someturkey and the fixings. Aren’t wethankful for those microwaves,they heat those leftovers up oh, so,good. Thanksgiving Day guests at Boband Verona’s were Allen and TraciEvans, Tiahanna and Taylor, SiouxFalls, Stan and Cathy Evans,Rapid City, Ross and Melanie

Jones, Cassie and Kalli, RapidCity, and Shorty Jones.

Boband his late wife, Dorothy, lived ina trailer house near Bob andVerona for a number of years, andBob still lives in that home. Allanand Traci headed for home Friday,the others went home Thanksgiv-ing evening.

Oth-ers there were their daughter,Dana and John Malferno, Brent,Rylan and Brody, Pierre, and theirson, Damon, Sarah, and Kendall,Colorado Springs, Colo. This allcame about thanks to Dana. Shehad called to see what our planswere for Thanksgiving. I told her ofour kids coming to our place for theday. She then said, “You should allcome to Pierre for Thanksgivingwith all of us.” Told her I wouldcheck with our kids, it was a gowith them, so called Dana, andfrom there plans were made. And,what a nice Thanksgiving it was,one of the best we have had. Oftentimes a person gets so caught up intheir own immediate family, it’snice when you get together withthose other members of the family.Nine-month-old Kendall andseven- month-old Laura got all ex-cited when they saw another littlepeople person. Just plain cute towatch them. And, of course, wehad to get some of those family pic-tures taken. Visiting and games ofcards were played and after mostenjoyable day, everyone headed forhome, except for Christopher,

Stephanie and Laura. They cameto our place to stay for a few days.Stephanie had made plans withJudy Fosheim, for Friday, givingher a chance to meet little Laurafor the first time. As most of youremember, John and Judy wereStephanie’s host family when shewas in Midland as an exchangestudent.

It is time to close my new’s col-umn for this week. For those of youwhose Thanksgiving news Imissed, I hope to get it for nextweek’s column. Now that Thanks-giving is over, it is time to get atthose Christmas cards, Christmasshopping and Christmas baking.Wishing each of you a God blessedweek.

I started putting my news to-gether and some news came overthe radio and said that this wasBlack Friday. I wondered why theywould call such a lovely day BlackFriday. It sure was not black to me,it was a lovely day filled with thememory of the blessing I had onThursday, Thanksgiving day, whenI enjoyed a beautiful day at theFitch farm for a meal in their newmachine shed. My reason to bethere was that my granddaughter,Christa, is married to Trevor Fitch.They live on the farm across theroad from the new shed and it is re-ally a wonderful building. I neverasked how large it is, but it isequipped with a bathroom and ashower. There is a wonderful spacefor an office and upstairs is wherethere will be a kitchen with every-thing in it. So they can eat therewhen people who are working willhave a place to sit down and eat. Itis heated and there is a two-doorrefrigerator that can hold a lot offood and it is already running.There is also water hooked up so abathroom and drinking water isavailable to use. They set up tablesin the front half of the building andChrista made the prettiest tabledecorations from some old vintagejars that were about four or fiveinches tall and were filled with lay-ers of seeds from their crops har-vested this year. On top of the jarlids she had placed an orange can-dle about an inch high, then shescattered fall leaves on top of thewhite tablecloths. It was so pretty. The other half of the room wasset up with some basketball hoopsand other games for the little kids.So both the bigger kids and the lit-tle ones had room to play and therewere lots of kids. The youngestchild was Truett and Dani Fitch'sbaby girl, WoodLynn, and Christaand Trevor’s little Aven. The restwere from that age to high schooland college aged. Several of Burjesand Cheryl’s kids were home withtheir children. Darrel and AnitaPeterson and Anita’s mom, Mrs.Paulson, from Wall, Lucille Peter-son, Philip, Theodore and LauraKjerstad, Quinn, Cheryl’s sister,Anita and Matt Sandal and familyof Quinn, and Mary Eide were allpresent. Everyone brought foodand there was lots of food. Butmost of the main food was fixed byBurjes and Cheryl. Most everyoneelse stayed for supper. What abunch of good cooks in that family.Everything was delicious I came early and left early so Iwould be home before dark. Then Iwasn’t out late and could get thedogs settled for the night. I alsowanted to be home as Marvin andVicki left for Gillette, Wyo.,Wednesday morning to spendThanksgiving with Carla and fam-ily. Marvin reported that they had adelicious meal served at Carla’s.He said the turkey they fixed wasthe best they had ever eaten. Hatsoff to the cook. It sounded like theyhad too much food also. Brayden Fitch came down anddid chores for Marvin and Vickiwhile they were gone. Marvin andVicki returned home about 8:30Thanksgiving night. Yes, and I started counting calo-ries Friday. I don’t want to gainpounds, as I want to enjoy Christ-mas dinner which is not far off. Kieth and Debbie Smith had aThanksgiving supper for some oftheir family, Tucker, Jess andLogan, Cassidy, Emberlyn andBella, Don and Donna Olivier,Colby Smith and Rich Smith. Fri-day, Lincoln and his girlfriend,Ella, came. Friday night, Kieth and Debbieattended the wedding of CrystalMartinez and Neal Eisenbraun. Saturday, Aaron and ChancieBaenen, Lead, arrived at Debbieand Kieth’s and all the family wentinto Philip to Don and DonnaOlivier’s for a Thanksgiving sup-per. Bryan and Sharon Olivier andsons, Scott and Dianna Olivier andSonja and two kids were also atDon and Donna’s. The family all at-tended the parade of lights inPhilip that evening. Sunday evening, Debbie at-tended the soup supper and annualmeeting at their church. The Thorson family rented theLegion Hall at Philip and had theirThanksgiving celebration there. Edand Cleon Tangren, Jodi’s parents,went along with Bob and Jodi forthe day.

Bob Thorson worked cattle Mon-day, preg testing and fall shots.Larry Schulz was out to help him. Bart and Marcy Ramsey hostedthe Ramsey family for Thanksgiv-ing, plus a few friends. All reportedthat there was lots of good food andlots of visiting during this holiday. Herb and Hazel Sielder hadplanned to be in Kansas for aThanksgivng family get-together.They didn’t answer the phonewhen I called, so they must still begone. Eileen Fitzgerald enjoyedThanksgiving at Dean and Jan-ice’s. Their family was all homeand Eileen was so glad to get to seethem all. She reported a wonderfulday. Al and Lenore Brucklacher wentto Tom and Marie Radway’s homeand joined their family for Thanks-giving. They had the Brucklacherfamily Thanksgivng dinner earlierin November and Lenore reportedthat all their family came. Therewere 42 of them there. I had statedearlier that Cain and Alex Radwayhad went to the New Jersey area tohelp out with the hurricane dam-age, but they did not go. The boysboth work for the same electriccompany. When I called Norma Oldenburgto see what they did for Thanksgiv-ing, she said that a couple of otherladies were tying quilts so was puton hold for awhile. Later when Icalled her back, she said that sheand Jim hosted their family forThanksgiving. Those who enjoyedthe day were daughter Debbie andNewton Brown and sons, Caseyand Clay and Clay’s finacée,Brandie Donavon, Faith, Ross andJanice Williams and family,Norma’s sister, Irene Finck, fromthe Silverleaf, Butch Wintrode andLuAnn Johnson. With all the wonderful Thanks-giving Day celebrations, theyshould not call Friday black. Fri-day may be something else likeSpecial Friday would be more ap-propriate. I guess the reason theycall it Black Friday is that the mer-chants feel it will put them in theblack financially, but all it does itput the shoppers in the red. Somaybe it is a red Friday for theshoppers. Just kidding. Sympathy goes out to the fami-lies of Wanda Heeb and RoyRoseth. Both were lifetime resi-dents in this area and well knownby everyone their funerals wereWednesday, November 21. I attended the service for Wandaand got to visit with Karen (Bowen)Raymond. She said that she hadtwo daughters who both work inRapid City, the youngest is a regis-tered nurse working at Sioux San.Karen has bought a home in RapidCity so when she retires she can becloser to her kids and grandkids. Karen’s son, Kenneth, lives inKadoka. I have known Wandasince I was eight or nine years oldand she and my mom were goodfriends. The local news, that is written bydifferent ladies or men from a com-munity, serves the purpose of let-ting those who are away from thearea and those who are shut-insknow what is happening in thearea and to know people are stillactive and doing things. The re-porters have to depend upon whatpeople tell them and what they see.Now as in everything else, some-times it is not as accurate as wewould like it to be. As in all things,people who tell us things are seeingit from a different point of view orfrom a different place or we mayforget some detail that changes themeaning. So when you read thelocal news in a small town or bigcity newspaper it is not alwaysexact, but we try. Those who readthe newspaper know communitymembers are well and enjoy read-ing about them. In case of an error that upsets you, please call us sowe can correct it in the next week’scolumn. The Fitch boys have been enjoy-ing hunting here at the farm dur-ing their vacation this week fromschool. Today, the 25th, as I finish upmy news, I hope you all had a greatThanksgiving with family andfriends. After I finished breakfast thismorning, I called my great-grand-son, Brayden Fitch, to wish him ahappy 16th birthday. It remindedme that it’s only four more weekstill Christmas. My, where does thetime go.

Good morning from chillyKadoka. There has been snow fromthe west deposited along the high-way as it shook free from vehiclesin the last few days. A result of thesnow that came in Saturday nightand Sunday. However, here we gotonly a little snow that clung to thevalleys in the roofs, but was invisi-ble on the ground. Along the lines of the article inmy last week’s news entitled "TheStranger" I want to add a littlefamily history. A letter written bymy mom, Ruth Fairchild, datedJanuary 10, 1956, to Aunt Emmaand Uncle Pat Patterson in May-wood, Ill., reads as such. "The TVman set up a temporary set (onlytried it for about a half hour) inPhilip. The boys said it came inpretty good, so maybe they will getsome good from a set. Next sum-mer Rapid should add power andmore programs. Personally, I’mquite satisfied with the programs,and I’m especially satisfied that wehave only evening telecasting. Wecan relax in the evenings and enjoythe plays, without feeling our timeis being wasted." Dad, WayneFairchild, added to the letter, "Hey,By George! The more I think of Pat

catching fish small time stuff. I justwonder how he would like to draw-a-bead on a 350 pound buck deer?It could be arranged Pat old boy,think it over. The T.V. takes care ofour spare time." Pee Wee Hook, Steve Clements,Henry Hanson, Doug Frien, EdMorrison, Jessica Gittings andDaniel helped work cattle forGeorge Gittings Monday. Henry,Doug, Ed, Jessica and Daniel haddinner also. Monday, I was doing some signbusiness. Bill made his usual tripto Philip to the card room in the af-ternoon and Tony Harty stoppedfor a visit at our place to give mehis news before calling at theShirley Hair home. Tuesday morning, I was a substi-tute bowler. Bill asked me wheremy ball and shoes were and I madethe "assumption" they were in thelocker in Philip. Never assume.Dorothy Hansen got me set up witha good pair of shoes, and I found ahouse ball and really messed up myhandicap, by averaging 166. Thatis going to be hard to keep up I’mafraid. Joyce Hicks rode home withme after bowling. Phyllis Word

stopped over for a visit in the after-noon. It was such a beautiful day, Icleaned out the garage with theleaf blower, which really worksquite well although it seemed I re-distributed some of the dust. Tony Harty visited at the homeof Shirley Hair after getting themail Tuesday and visited with hisniece, Kathy Brown, in the after-noon. George Gittings was in Midlandon business Wednesday. Wednesday morning bright andearly, I was on the road to RapidCity with the Haakon CountyPrairie Transportation van. Niceday for the trip. Wednesday, Tony Harty did a lit-tle business around town, enjoyedcoffee out with folks, then visitedShirley and L.D. Hair. Jessica Gittings and Daniel vis-ited George and Sandee GittingsThursday morning. George andSandee spent a quiet day at homeon Thanksgiving. Don and Vi Moody had a busyfirst part of the week getting readyto spend Thanksgiving and deco-rate at their ranchette in RapidValley. The main course for themeal was the turkey they had wonin a drawing earlier this spring,but they did some shopping for therest of the trimmings Wednesday.In planning for leftovers, theybought a mini freezer (an earlyBlack Friday special on Wednes-day). Just in time for the holiday.They were invited to Thanksgivingdinner at their neighbors, but itseemed that cooking and relaxingat home with a 3D movie would bethe better option. Cathy Fiedler reported a beauti-ful first part of the week in theSturgis area. Thursday morningthe streets were wet with somelight rain. The sun came out laterand it was in the 40s for the day,some snow showers through outthe day but didn’t amount to any-thing. Ralph and Cathy had a

houseful for the day with Don andLynette Klumb and girls, Eric andSherry Hanson and kids, Derek,Renee and Jazmen Erickson, and afriend of Caitlin’s from Spearfishcoming for the day. Good food, con-versation, a game of cards, napsand watching football was enjoyedby all. The grandkids made outtheir Christmas lists and nameswere drawn among the family.Now everyone can start their shop-ping! Eric, Renee and Jazmen leftearly afternoon to go to his familyat Lead. After pie in the eveningeveryone else headed for home. Theweather had turned much colderwith the wind. But, Sherry andLynette took in the Black Fridayspecials Thursday night inSpearfish. It was a first time expe-rience and they learned somethings. Thanksgiving at our house wasquiet, but we counted our bless-ings, which are many. I clipped anarticle out of the Friday, November23, Rapid City Journal, entitled"South Dakotans linked to Pil-grims." On the Sherwood side ofthe family, we are descendants ofEdward Doty, a passenger on theMayflower and mom and auntEdna proved up the lineage manyyears ago. Vi Moody wrote, "Well, Thanks-giving is over and it seems thelarger towns get more excitedabout Black Friday and CyberMonday, but that's the way thingsseem to be nowadays. I wonder ifthey still think it all should takeplace "Over the Hill and Throughthe Woods to Grandmother's HouseWe Go!" Grandmother is no doubton her IPad, MiniPad, IPhone on atropical island or some other ro-mantic island, sipping pina coladasin the south Pacific or WesternCaribbean." Sandee Gittings went to RapidCity Friday afternoon after work.The good news is she got mosteverything she intended to and did-

n’t have to fight any crowds. Friday, Bill and I went to Philipin the afternoon, he went to thecard room and I met Lee Vaughanat the airport. We sorted thewreaths, swags and garland to bedistributed for Civil Air Patrol. Ivisited at the home of Larry,RoseAnn and Lydia Schulz andwas gifted a Christmas tree madewith coat hangers. Love those littletrees. Jim Van Tassel gave us oneabout 20 years ago, it adorns thehouse all year long, a great nightlight. Tony Harty stopped by ourplace later in the evening after vis-iting at the Hair home. He read thepapers and we enjoyed a couple offarkel games. Don and Vi Moody returned tothe ranch late Friday to find someof Santa’s elves had been busy anda fresh Christmas wreath was al-ready at their entrance. Thankyou, Civil Air Patrol team. Don andVi also wanted to catch up and fi-nalize some hay deals they startedworking with, fed cattle, and putwell lids on wells and did therranch things. A few deer hunterswere still out and some guys didsome coyote calling over the week-end at the ranch as it was gorgeousweather for travel and all to enjoythe holiday with many manythanks. Jessica Gittings and Daniel wereout to see George and Sandee Git-tings Saturday afternoon and gotsome stuff. They attended the lightparade and Daniel rode out withRoxie Gittings to spend the night.Kinsey Gittings got back from Iowashortly after them. Tony Harty visited L.D. andShirley Hair Saturday. L.D. wasgetting ready to return to his job inHot Springs and Shirley was goingto stay in Kadoka. Bright and early Saturday morn-ing, Bill and I were on the road toSioux Falls for a Thanksgivinggathering of the family. ShelleySeager came from Sutton, Neb.,

grandson Chase May, Carly andnewest great-grandson, Jaxon,came from Madison, granddaugh-ter, Amanda and Adam Claflincame from Harrisburg, and we allmet at the family home of grandsonEric Seager for a late holiday gath-ering. Chaciel’s grandpa, Alex, alsojoined the group. We took along aproblem computer and Eric jumpedat the chance to help get it back onits feet and salvaged as much infor-mation as possible on the harddrive. The one thing missing thistime is the email addressed, so toget this to the paper I may have tocall and see if they actually get it.Bill and I were overnight guests atEric’s returning home Sunday af-ternoon after visiting at the Claflinhome. Shelley also returned homethat day. George, Sandee, Roxie, Kinseyand Jessica Gititngs and Danielhad their Thanksgiving Sunday.Daniel returned home with Jessicain the evening. Friendship is a blessing! Amongthe many things we have in life tobe "thankful for," we hold mostdear to us also is friendship. Vi shares her new gift with a fewquotes: "A real friend is not somuch someone you need to be seri-ous with, as someone you feel freeto be silly with." "It takes a longtime to grow an old friend - that wedon't ever want to lose and that istrue friendship." Cathy Fiedler wrote: the week-end in Sturgis was cold with Sun-day bringing in snow showers thatgot everything wet. By late after-noon, the snow stuck to everything,accumulating about two inches ofwet snow. The sun on the newfallen snow gave a look of a winterwonderland in the Black Hills area. Sunday, Tony Harty visited atthe home of Kathy Brown and DaleKoehn and after church visited

The first ladies night held atGrossenburg Implement in Philip,held Tuesday, November 20, was asuccess. A relaxed come and go atmos-phere was highlighted with winesampling, even a wine list. Therewere “cheeses from around theworld, or at least as far away asDublin,” said Bobbi Woitte, book-keeper. “It was a pretty enjoyableevening, lots of ladies lookingaround and enjoying themselves,”said Diane Fitch, parts depart-ment. Each of the seven GrossenburgImplement sites held similarevents this year, after one of theirstores started the idea severalyears ago. The only change for nextyear’s event in Philip, might be tohold it on some other evening thanTuesday, because potential guestsmay be too weary from a long dayat the Philip Livestock Auction. Approximately 40 guestsbrowsed over merchandise whilesocializing. “Clothing seemed to bereal popular. Clothing and tools,”said Woitte. Door prizes included aJohn Deere glass cutting board and

various bottles of wine. “It was real nice to have a fewgentlemen stop in with their wives.It wasn’t strictly ladies,” saidWoitte. “It was actually a lot of fun.Actually doing something for theladies and getting to know thewives was a pleasure.”

recommit to being a person of highstandards and quality, one wholooks for and exposes the good inothers. Determine right now thatfrom now on you will be a peoplebuilder. In ancient Greece, Socrates wasreputed to hold knowledge in highesteem. One day, an acquaintancemet the great philosopher and said,“Do you know what I just heardabout your friend?” “Hold on a minute,” Socratesreplied. “Before telling me any-thing, I’d like you to pass a littletest. It’s called the triple filter test." “Triple-filter test?” “That's right,” Socrates contin-ued. “Before you talk to me aboutmy friend, it might be a good idea totake a moment and filter whatyou’re going to say. The first filteris truth. Have you made absolutelysure what you are about to tell meis true?” “No,” the man said, “actually Ijust heard about it and ...” “All right,” said Socrates. “So youdon’t really know if it’s true or not.Now let’s try the second filter, thefilter of goodness. Is what you areabout to tell me about my friendsomething good?” “No, on the contrary.” “So,” Socrates continued, “youwant to tell me something badabout him, but you’re not certainit’s true. You may still pass the test,though, because there’s one filterleft, the filter of usefulness. Is whatyou want to tell me about my friendgoing to be useful to me?” “No, not really.” “Well,” concluded Socrates, “ifwhat you want to tell me is neithertrue nor good nor even useful, whytell it to me at all?” Just think what this world mightbe like if each of us applied thetriple filter test to every thing weare about to say.

Be a people builder

I hate to admit it, but sometimesI can easily slip into the habit ofspeaking negatively about people. Idon’t like this about myself, and Iam embarrassed once I realize whatI have done, and I quickly take re-sponsibility for my shortcoming andtry to make things right. Everybody knows that tearingothers down, being derogatory andspreading nasty negative things aresimply not the traits of a person ofgood character and moral fiber.Still, it often seems so much easierfor us to find the negative in otherpeople, but it doesn’t have to be thatway. We can learn to stop tearing oth-ers down and become peoplebuilders. I believe that wheneverpeople invest their time thinking ofhealthy and positive ways to buildpeople, it makes it a lot harder to beso critical of others. When we ac-tively look for ways to say some-thing positive to, or about someoneelse, and take time to recognize peo-ple's strengths, we are ready to ex-pose the good we know wheneverthe opportunity presents itself. Andthat is people building. When we have taken time to no-tice the good and positive about peo-ple, rather than the negative, it ismuch easier to steer negative con-versations in the right direction. Ioften do this by saying somethinglike, “Let's get to the good news.”and then proceed to say somethinguplifting about the person who wasbeing bashed. Face it. All of us are a work inprogress and none of us can say wedon’t need to improve in one area oranother. And yet, don’t we all wantpeople to think and say the bestabout us anyway? Shouldn’t thatmake us all the more willing to lookfor ways to be building othersrather than tearing them down? I encourage you, this week, to

About 36 million Christmas treesare sold between Thanksgiving andChristmas. While artificial treesenjoyed increased sales for the pastdecade, those sales have stagnatedand now there is a return to havingthe traditional tree, said John Ball,South Dakota State University Ex-tension forestry specialist. “A traditional Christmas tree isalso the environmentally friendlyway to celebrate the holidays. Theaverage artificial Christmas treehas a life span of six years before itends up in a landfill. The tradi-tional Christmas tree, while usedonly one season, can become valu-able mulch, a winter bird feeder oreven used as a fish habitat afterthe holidays,” Ball said. Here are some tips on pickingout the perfect tree. The way to obtain the freshesttree is to harvest it yourself at achoose-and-cut Christmas treefarm, Ball said. “This way you areguaranteed a ‘fresh’ tree ratherthan one that may have been har-vested several weeks earlier,” hesaid. If cutting your own tree is notpossible, Ball said to use these tipsto check for freshness at a Christ-

mas tree sales lot. First, give the tree a light butvigorous shake. Only a few interiorneedles should fall out of the tree ifit is fresh. If a pile of brown needlesappears on the ground below thetree, particularly from the branchtips, it is not a fresh tree. Next, reach into a branch andpull the needles gently throughyour hand as you move out towardsthe tip. The needles should bend,not break, as your fingers runacross them and the branch shouldonly slightly bend. Regardless of whether you buy atree from a lot or cut it yourself,once you get the tree home, leave itoutside while you set the stand up. Ball said the choice of a stand isprobably the most critical factor inmaintaining the freshness of thetree once in the home. “The standshould be able to hold one-half toone gallon of water, as the newChristmas tree may absorb up tothis amount in the first day," Ballsaid. A good rule of thumb heshared is a tree will use one quartof water per day for every inchtrunk diameter at the base. If youhave a tree with a three inch base,it may use three quarts of waterper day. Just before you bring the tree inthe house, cut the base about oneinch from the bottom. Ball said thiswill open the sap filled tracheids,the pores responsible for transport-ing water, and allows water to beabsorbed into the tree. The base cutdoes not have to be slanted; theangle makes little difference in the

amount of water absorbed. Once the tree is in the stand, addwater and then never let the standbecome empty. “If the stand be-comes empty for more than sixhours, the tree’s pores plug up.Water uptake will then be signifi-cantly reduced. The tree will dryout and the needles will soon beginto fall,” he said. “If the tree standdoes dry up for half a day or morethere is nothing that can be doneother than pull the tree out of thestand and recut the base, not apleasant task once the lights andornaments are already up.” Ball also said that nothing needsto be added to the water in thestand to improve needle retention.“The commercial tree fresher prod-ucts do not significantly increasethe life of the tree and the homeremedies such as aspirin, sugar,soft drinks and vodka do not workand may be harmful to pets thatmay drink from the stand,” he said. Place the stand in a spot that re-ceives only indirect light from thewindows and not near any heatduct. This will reduce water lossfrom the tree and prolong its fresh-ness. “Another tip to prolongingfreshness is to start out with aclean stand. Before setting up thetree, wash the stand out with a so-lution of about a capful of bleach toa cup of water, to reduce thegrowth of microorganisms thatmay also plug up the tree's pores,”said Ball. Which is the best tree? Ball saideach species has its good points,but the Fraser fir is probably one ofthe favorites. “The tree is very fra-grant, has excellent needle reten-tion and the branches are stiffenough to hold ornaments. Balsamfir is another good choice, thoughthe needles do not last as long and

Selecting the perfect Christmas tree this yearthe branches are not quite as stiff.Canaan fir, another popular fir, ap-pears to have qualities similar toFraser fir and is also becoming apopular Christmas tree," he said. Pines are very popular withScotch pine probably the most pop-ular tree in the country. It also isvery fragrant, has excellent needleretention and the branches arestiff. “White pine is another pine com-monly sold at Christmas treestands and has a fair fragrance,but the needle retention is notquite as good as Scotch pine andthe branches are very flexible,meaning heavy ornaments may falloff,” he said. “White pines do havevery soft needles and if you aregoing to run into the tree in themiddle of the night this is the one.” Spruces are not as popular ofChristmas trees, said Ball, prima-rily due to their poor needle reten-tion. “If you want to have a bluespruce as your Christmas tree, youprobably should wait until a coupleof weeks before Christmas as theneedles may only last that long.Once the needles begin to fall, bluespruce are about the worst tree tohave as the fallen needles aresharp and seem to find their wayinto socks and slippers,” he said. Blue spruce has the best needleretention of the spruces, but doesnot have much of a fragrance. Thebranches are very stiff, however,and can support the heaviest orna-ments. White spruce, or Black Hillsspruce is not commonly availablethough is used in the Black Hills. “It does make a nice tree, partic-ularly when cut fresh, but it doesnot have much of a fragrance andoccasionally Black Hills sprucetrees can have a slight muskyodor,” he said.

“It’s one of those lifelong lessons,to be able to get up and talk to peo-ple. And, they had fun,” said KathyNelson, coach for this year’s oral in-terpretation team. The eight student team com-peted in three “practice” contestevents before the district and re-gion competitions. Their firstmeets, all on Saturdays, were inSturgis, October 13, in Pierre, Oc-tober 20, and at Rapid City StevensHigh School, October 27. The dis-trict tournament was in Winner,Monday, November 5, and regionswere Pierre, Monday, November19. Three students qualified, bybeing judged to be in the top threein their specific categories, to moveon to regional competition. Per-formers had to then be in the topthree at regions to qualify for thestate competition. Members of the readers theatergroup included Brad Pfeifle, SamJohnson, Kaci Olivier, DeseraeWilliams and Ted’Dee Buffalo. Thepiece that they performed was“Spin.” Under the heading of seriousprose, Jane Poss spent her seasonworking on and improving on thepiece “Endings.” Allison Pekron se-lected to do “On My Own,” and tookit all the way to regions. Johnson performed the humor-ous reading of “Green Eggs andHam” by Dr. Seuss. Philip had two duet teams, bothchoosing to work with humorouspieces. Williams and Buffalo did“Gary Trotter and He Who’s Name

We Cannot Mention Due to Copy-right Infringement.” Brooke Nelsonand Olivier did “My Life inBabysitters,” with which theyearned an alternate position at re-

gions. In the poetry division, Nelsonread a collection of three cowboypoetry pieces by Baxter Black. Shealso moved on to regions.

by Rep. Kristi Noem As South Dakota families gearup for the frenzied holiday shop-ping season that begins for someafter Thanksgiving Day, it’s impor-tant to remember the role oursmall businesses play. November 24 was Small Busi-ness Saturday, a day to celebratesmall businesses and the impactthey have on our communities. South Dakota is home to over78,000 small businesses that ac-count for almost 62 percent of theprivate sector jobs in the state, ac-cording to data from the SmallBusiness Administration. Whilethe national economy has struggledthe past few years, our economyhas grown, due in large part to thesuccess of small business. In fact,

South Dakota continually ranks asthe friendliest state for small busi-nesses. Unfortunately, many small busi-nesses in S.D. and the nation arefacing uncertainty about our econ-omy. Looming at year’s end is whathas become known as the "fiscalcliff," a combination of across-the-board spending cuts and tax in-creases that economists say couldsend America back into a recession. Showing support for our state’ssmall businesses through initia-tives like "Small Business Satur-day" is a great way to give SouthDakota employers a confidenceboost. I encourage South Dakotanslooking to purchase gifts to seewhat their local small businesseshave to offer.

by Senator John Thune Small business is the lifeblood ofcommunities. Across the state,small businesses sponsor baseballteams, support fine arts fundrais-ers, contribute to developmentprojects and make the consciousdecision to keep their business inour community to help stimulateour local economies. These busi-ness owners often treat their cus-tomers and their employees likefamily, because in small towns, en-suring customer satisfaction is vi-tally important to keeping theirdoors open. The economic climate has beendifficult for many small businesses.Economic uncertainty has led torevenue and job loss, and manysmall businesses wonder how they

will weather the economic storm. The hope for any small businessduring this season is that membersof their community will first chooseto shop local for their holiday gifts.The loyalty and patronage of cus-tomers in small towns and in smallbusinesses across the state injectsmoney into local establishments,helping them to lower prices andprovide a greater array of productsand services. We must do more to provide cer-tainty and support for our smallbusinesses. As the holiday seasoncontinues, don’t limit your smallbusiness patronage to Small Busi-ness Saturday. Support yourfriends, support your community,support small businesses by shop-ping locally this holiday season.

Support small businesses this Christmas season

with Shirley Hair. A front page article caught myattention in the Rapid City JournalMonday morning. "South Dakotalooks to lure dairy farmers fromWisconsin." You should ask formerSecretary of State Larry Gabrielabout recruitment of dairy farms.During his tenure, several largedairy farms came into the state.They encountered opposition fromthe locals concerning manure man-agement, use of illegal immigrantsand zoning laws, after they were al-ready in operation and financiallyburdened. It is nice to entice thosewith the money from other statesor countries to come and enjoy thewide open spaces, but quite an-other to place new rules and regu-lations on that business. It is noth-ing new. Here is what my grandfa-ther, M.C. Sherwood had pub-lished, July 1, 1916. "ATTEN-TION. Have you looked up HaakonCounty? Do you know what wehave to offer in BARGAIN FARMLANDS?" Notice and consider thefollowing Facts: Last year weraised some big crops. Wheat ashigh as 45 bushels per acre, oats ashigh as 110 bushels per acre. Cornmatured as high as 75 bushels peracre. Speltz, barley, millett andflax accordingly. Alfalfa three to sixtons per acre. One farmer sold $168worth of seed per acre, but the sea-son was generally too wet for agood alfalfa seed crop. This is a great dairy and cattlecountry. Midland - on the P.R.C.&N.W. Ry., shipped nearly $100,000worth of cream last year. The ship-ments this year are greater thanever. During June this year, there

were shipped from Midland 15,430gallons of cream for which ourfarmers received approximately$15,400 in cash. Do you wonderthat our farmers are getting richand that there has been sold thisyear by our local dealers $30,000worth of automobiles, $30,000worth of lumber and buildng mate-rials and that they are buying morelands adjoining their present hold-ings, and have bought $200,000worth of eastern and southern cat-tle. We have splendid black soil, withnutritious grasses, which fattenstock for market without the aid ofgrains; plenty of hay, water andfeed. South Dakota is the place forhomeseeker, renter and investor,and where the Eastern Real EstateMan should put in his efforts forthe next twelve months. YOUSHOULD BE HANDLING MYLAND AT $10.00 TO $25.00 PERACRE. Plenty of land for coloniza-tion and ranches Please give me two minutes ofyour time. Write for my latest listand more information. Please dothis without fail. Let me tell youpersonally of the fine opportunitiesI have to offer. M. C. SHERWOODMember C.R.E.D.A., No. 4612; TheReal Estate Man of Midland, S.D." As Christmas is approaching thisseems to be a good quote."Purchasegas from the neighborhood gas sta-tion even if it costs more. Next win-ter when it’s six degrees and yourcar won’t start, you’ll be glad theyknow you." This applies in all as-pects, shop locally.

Betwixt Places News(continued from page 7)

Greetings from sunny, cool, drynortheast Haakon County. We re-ally can't complain about theweather, other than the fact thatwe still need moisture. It has beenmostly warmer than usual for thistime of the year, and the roads aredry, which is a plus in my book. I'vedecided to just treat each beautifulday as a gift; after all, sunshine isa necessity for this solar poweredgal! I must sheepishly wish a very be-lated happy birthday to our aunt,Ruth Neuhauser. Her birthday isin mid-November, and somehow Iblew right past it – guess I need topay more attention to the date! Iwas thinking of all sorts of ex-cuses – preparation for Thanksgiv-ing, projects to accomplish here athome, working on Christmasgifts – but in the end, there is justno excuse for letting her specialday go unnoticed by me. One thingis certain, I don't think Aunt Ruthhas missed my birthday since I'veknown her! So happy belated birth-day, Aunt Ruth! I'm glad you had agreat day. Did any of you get caught up inthe Black Friday/Cyber Mondaycraze that has been all over thenews? I know that some folks reallyenjoy the excitement of getting agood deal, and some folks treatBlack Friday as a social event or anannual event with friends or fam-ily. Personally, I treat it as some-thing to be avoided at all costs! Ilike the idea of the shopping locallycampaign, ensuring that the dol-lars you spend get cycled throughyour community. But most of all, Ihope folks will slow down a bit andremember what we are celebrating.It truly is a blessed season. I willadmit to taking advantage of someof the Cyber Monday deals – it wasgreat to be able to "shop" in my of-fice, comparing prices in the com-fort of my own home without run-ning from store to store, and notbeing pressured to make a quickdecision. And the best part is that

the items will be delivered to myhome, free of charge! My CyberMonday deals weren't gifts,though – well, I guess maybe theywere gifts for me. I'm redoing abedroom in our home, and I neededsome new bedding, bed frame, pil-lows, etc. I found what I needed,got a good price, and it will all bedelivered to my front door in four toseven business days – success! The community gathered lastWednesday to lay our friend andneighbor, Roy Roseth, to rest at theDeep Creek Cemetery. It was awonderful service, for a wonderfulman. We are all better for havingknown him and having the oppor-tunity to learn from his example.Our challenge now is to be thatsame sort of example for the gener-ations who come after us.

Friday, Nels spent theday working on his corral project,and Dorothy went to Pierre to dosome shopping. She said the earlymorning crowds had come and goneby the time she got there, so thestores weren't too crowded. Shecame home with a case of stomachflu, which she then shared withNels. The stomach upset was shortlived, and they are both feeling bet-ter now. Saturday, Nels andDorothy spent some more time ontheir corral project. That evening,they had a visit from their friends,Otis and Amber Funk, and Otis'parents. After church Sunday, Nelsand Dorothy finished up their cor-ral project.

days is that the leftovers get usedup – I think I have mentioned be-fore that turkey is not Randy's fa-vorite meal, especially when it isthe third meal in a row! This week, I am grateful forsome of the products that make mylife easier. Ziplock bags and disin-fectant wipes are two of my fa-vorites, along with those showercap-looking bowl covers. Of course,I wish that I had invented these –can you imagine the revenue? But,mostly I'm just glad that they wereinvented – I'm all for convenience!Also, after several days of feedinga houseful of family, I'm very grate-ful for the dishwasher. I hope you all had a wonderfulThanksgiving – and even thoughThanksgiving is over for anotheryear, please remember to be thank-ful for something every day. It re-ally does make your day go better!Now go out and enjoy this gorgeouslate November weather! It cer-tainly won't last forever.
