Plant Transplant Sale going strong after 39 years By COLE BENZ

Record Editor The West River Health Services Auxiliary has been operating to support the healthcare facility since 1949, when it was organized as the Hettinger Hospital Guild. To date, the group (which changed its name in 1963) has raised nearly $200,000 that was either donated to the hospital or given to young students for their

education. A popular fundraiser each year—especially to those with greener thumbs—is the annual Plant Transplant Sale. Started nearly 40 years ago in 1977, Carolyn Van White got the idea from spring gardening. During the early weeks of spring, gardeners will thin out their crop of perennial plants, to encourage larger growth. “Gardeners do this all

the time in the spring. Your perennials get crowded, and they benefit from being thinned out.” Jan Sailer said. Sailer was involved in the beginning stages of the annual sale. Sailer said White thought about it, and realized the auxiliary could benefit from the waste gardeners accumulate. “So Carolyn said ‘why don’t’ we just have a place where everyone can bring [their plants],’” Sailer said.

The event has since expanded their plant offerings to include house plants, annuals, vegetables, and fruit plants. There are no price tags on any of the plants, it is a free will donation system, and some exceed the value of the plants they take home. “Some people come strictly to support the organizations and the hospi-

IN BRIEF

Veterans, military personnel admitted to state parks free on Memorial Day In honor of the United States Armed Services the North Dakota Parks and Recreation Department is admitting military veterans and current personnel free to any North Dakota State Park on Memorial Day, Monday, May 30, in recognition of their contributions to the country. It is expected to be a busy weekend at most North Dakota State Parks with events and activities planned for the unofficial start of summer. Information on the state parks and North Dakota Parks and Recreation Department can be found online at parkrec.nd.gov or by calling 701-328-5358. Reservations can be made online or by calling 800-807-4723.

More than 38M expected to travel holiday weekend AAA projects more than 38 million Americans will travel this Memorial Day weekend. That is the second-highest Memorial Day travel volume on record and the most since 2005. Nearly 34 million (89 percent) holiday travelers will drive to their Memorial Day destinations, an increase of 2.1 percent over last year. Air travel is expected to increase 1.6 percent over last year, with 2.6 million Americans taking to the skies this Memorial Day. Travel by other modes of transportation, including cruises, trains and buses, will fall 2.3 percent, to 1.6 million travelers. AAA expects most U.S. drivers will pay the lowest Memorial Day gas prices since 2005. The national average price for a gallon of gasoline on Memorial Day 2015 was $2.74 and $3.66 the year before. Today’s national average is $2.27. The North Dakota average is eight cents lower at $2.19. “Gas prices peak in most years before Memorial Day, which means we could see gas prices decline later this summer if normal trends apply,” said LaDoucer. “The big wild card is the cost of crude oil, and no one has a good idea of where crude oil prices are headed later this year. If crude oil keeps going up, then we would see higher gas prices, but if crude remains flat then most drivers should pay the cheapest summertime gas prices in 11 years.” AAA estimates that Americans have saved more than $18 billion on gas so far this year compared to the same period in 2015. During the first three months of 2016, Americans paid the cheapest quarterly gas prices in 11 years. According to a recent AAA survey, 55 percent of Americans say they are more likely to take a road trip this year due to lower gas prices.

Verdin wants to be very welcoming to the community, and while many restauranteurs may not take negative feedback well, she wants to make sure her customers are happy. She is willing to make changes in order to satisfy her customer base. Right now Taqueria El Pueblo has six employees, but they are currently looking for help in the kitchen. She said the restaurant is really a family affair, and until they get more help, they have been willing to pitch in to get things going. The restaurant will be open Tuesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. They can be reached at 701-567-6703.

‘Foundation Nation’ becomes ‘Foundation Strong’ By TED UECKER

WRHS Foundation The Foundation at West River Health Services held their 2nd Annual “Foundation Nation” Scramble Golf Tournament this past Saturday, May 2t at the Hettinger Country Club. The hurricane winds made everyone think “Foundation Strong,” as hats, scorecards and golf balls were flying everywhere! Seven teams, comprised of six foursomes and one fivesome, or 29 total golfers braved the wind and actually played pretty well. Everyone hustled to get their nine holes in and head for the Clubhouse for Hettinger Jaycee’s Bingo. Yes, there was BINGO to be played as well, raising even more funds for the “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign at Western Horizons Care Center. Overall, the event raised $6,175 net! Of that total, $5,275 was earmarked for the Care Center, $500 for the Scranton Clinic and $400 for the Fun Run & Walk Fund via Raffle Tickets. As for the golfers, the Champions were Christi/ Garret Schmitz, Shane Erickson and Tony Muggerud

coming in at four under par 32. They received the awesome glass art trophy and four plush WRHSF embroidered beach towels. In 2nd place was the team of Matt Shahan, Jerad Jacobson, Amy Rassier and David Timm. They shot three under par 33 and garnered the red birdbath and waterproof speakers for each. The team of Cindy/Tom Arndorfer, Chris Parnow, Nathan Weaver and Matt Schneider came in 3rd with a score of two under par 34. These scores are really good – considering the crazy windy conditions. There were eight individual hole prizes including longest drives (Cindy Arndorfer, Matt Schneider); shortest drives (Amy Rassier, Greg Hickman); closest to the pins (Barry Melling on #8, Shane Erickson on #3); closest 2nd shot (Chris Parnow on #7); and closest to the WOW! poster (Dennis Maier on #6). They all received prizes, as did the six golfers who hit the #8 green (Leonard Bjerklie, Tyler/Cassie Dick, Tony Muggerud, Schneider and Melling). Unfortunately, no one made the Hole-In-One on #8 for $6,600; but Barry Melling’s had a chance (it was about an inch off line). I

know as I was the witness for each shot to the #8 green! The BINGO was a huge success! Although we only had about 15 BINGO players to start with, once the golf was completed, almost every golfer joined in the BINGO, bringing the number close to 40 BINGO players! The Hettinger Jaycees played every game for half the pot; some kept it, some donated it back. Overall the BINGO raised over $500, but the Hettinger Jaycees decided to issue a check to the Foundation for $2,500! This total happens to be the cost to renovate one of the resident rooms (which doesn’t require new flooring) at our Western Horizons Care Center. WOW! How awesome is that? And not only that, but they had about six young men selling BINGO tickets, calling out the letter/numbers and verifying BINGOS. Thank you Hettinger Jaycees. We appreciate your hard work and terrific gift. The Foundation was also busy selling raffle tickets for the Fun Run & Walk. On this night, 80 raffle tickets (at $5 apiece) were sold! The ten raffle prizes, to be awarded on July 4th at the Fun Run & Walk, include a kayak from

Running’s; two tickets to the Medora Musical; four tickets to the Minnesota Twins vs. Kansas City Royals game on Sunday, August 14th; two rounds of golf plus cart at Bully Pulpit; a Beef Bundle; a youth set of golf clubs; and four Fitbits! Anyone can purchase these tickets prior to the announcement of winners at the Fun Run & Walk on July 4th. If you want raffle tickets, please come to the main desk at the Hettinger Clinic or see Kim Schalesky in Administration. Special thank you’s go out to Dr. Wellman, Dr. Sheffield, Dr. Carrie Ranum, Matt Shahan and Tony Muggerud for their gifts of $500 or more; to Kennedy’s Fresh Foods for their amazing beef meal; to AFLAC Insurance and Shannon Lefebre for the terrific prizes; to the Hettinger Park Board and Hettinger Country Club for hosting us; and to all of the golfers and BINGO players. We are so grateful for you supporting our efforts to improve our Care Center in Hettinger. See you next year – maybe we’ll find a day when the wind isn’t howling! But no matter what, we’ll be “Foundation Strong!”

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

Falling From The Sky Vet talks about his days as a paratrooper in WWII

Record Editor

Richard Ketterling sits behind a hand-drawn portrait of himself. He gave a Japanese prisoner a few dollars to make the picture while he was on guard after World War II was over. (Photo by Cole Benz/The Record) remembers, and said it closely mirrored that of the Marines. “Training in the paratroops was really tough,” Ketterling said. “It was physical training from morning till night.” He also had some education in larger weapons as a member of artillery. Paratroopers would be trained to jump out of the plane after a box of a disassembled cannon was dropped. They would land and convene at the dropped box and assemble the weapon for use. When he was shipped out of the United

With a desire to discover more in life outside of the family farm, Richard Ketterling volunteered for military service at the height of World War II in 1944. Ketterling, a 1944 graduate of Hettinger High School, said that he had never been outside of the state, and wanted to try something different when he enlisted. “I volunteered for induction,” Ketterling said. “I was just a young kid and wanted to do something different, I hadn’t been out of the state of North Dakota.” His father wanted him to stay and help with the family farm, but he joined the service on June 21 shortly after his graduation. The government assigned him to the Army branch of the military, and Ketterling was put in the artillery division. He couldn’t remember exactly when or why, but he eventually volunteered to be a paratrooper. He did his training in Ft. Benning, Ga. where he made his first five jumps. Following his beginning instructions he was pushed on to advanced training where he completed more jumps, and finished his training. He said you didn’t have time to be scared when making jumps. Ketterling remembers being on the plane, with 12 men on each side. And when they were given the command, one by one they all jumped. “When they say ‘go,’ well you just follow the guy ahead of you,” Ketterling said. He said that if your nerves started acting up, you ran the risk of being pushed out of the plane; one way or another, Ketterling said, you were jumping out of the aircraft. Training was very rigorous. Ketterling

States Ketterling landed in the Philippines, where he would stay for nearly his entire military career. When reflecting on his time first landing overseas, he said the one thing he noticed was that the number of crashed Japanese planes far outnumbered American planes. “Our pilots, evidently, were a lot better than there’s,” Ketterling said. He was a part of a small battalion of paratroopers and artillery men, and eventually they were transported, by boat, to another island to replaced lost troops.

Ketterling said he never had to jump into live combat, be he was ready if would have been called upon. Many of his jumps during training included being dressed in full gear and equipped with a rifle. “Oh yeah, you were fully equipped,” Ketterling said. He spent 18 months in the military, before an accident ended his career. He was accidentally shot by a fellow soldier during a gun-handling incident, and spent three months in the hospital. Ketterling returned to Hettinger and held various jobs around the area until 1970, when he settled in at the county courthouse as a County Tax Director. He retired in 1988. He has stayed involved with the Legion Club since he became the first manager in 1948. He has been a member of the American Legion for 68 years. Ketterling doesn’t carry many mementos from his time in the military, but he does have one. A portrait of himself, hand drawn by a Japanese prisoner. After the war, Ketterling was guarding some members of the Japanese military, and one was good with the pencil. So, to help the gentlemen out, Ketterling gave him some money and the man drew for a photo of him. He has it framed and in his home to this day. Ketterling, turning 90 years old recently, doesn’t talk about his service much, and is pretty humble about his time as a soldier, but he would have stayed in the service had he been able to. “I’m proud of my service, but I never made a big deal out of it,” Ketterling said. “If I would have the opportunity, I think I would have stayed in myself.” Ketterling said that he has a grandson currently serving in the Air Force.

SPORTS REGIONAL TRACK

Night Hawks do well at region track By SHELDON CHRISTENSON

For The Record Trinity may have dominated the boys 2016 regional track meet as they also did in 2015, but it was closer this year. Last year they won by 134 points over their nearest competitor Killdeer. This year it was only 81 points over second place Mott-Regent. Hettinger-Scranton made the biggest jump in points and standings from 2015. They jumped from 19 points and 12th place to sixth place and 56 points. The Wildfire increased their point total by 32 points and moved up one place from third to second this year. Bowman County increased their point total by 34 points and moved up one place from fourth to third.

Dakotah Mansfield was the big point getter for them as he finished first in the 800 meter run. Brady Wegh of Mott-Regent had a big day as he finished in first place in the 110 hurdles, Long Jump and the Triple Jump. Alex Bartholomay of Bowman County finished first in both the 1600 and 3200 meter run. Top three in each event qualified to earn a spot at the state track meet in Bismarck, May 27-28.

The Hettinger-Scranton Night Hawk girls made the biggest jump in points in the girls event as they improved their point total from last year by 46 points. They also improved one spot in the standings from fourth to third. Killdeer won the 2015 event and Trinity was second, but they exchanged positions in the standings this year. Night Hawk Taylor Hestekin had a big point day as she easily won the 400, 800 and 1600 meter runs. She was also part of the winning 800 relay team along with Molly Holt, Alyssa Andress and Lizzy Thompson. The Night Hawk 1,600 relay team also took first place as Lizzy Thompson, Samantha Oase,

Fan Questions Weekly Viking Roundup By JORDAN WRIGHT For The Record

With the NFL draft season behind us, and training camps yet to open, I thought this week would be a good opportunity to get to some reader’s questions. Alex from South Dakota asks “Will Stefon Diggs hit a sophomore slump?” Thanks for the question Alex! Stefon Diggs was drafted in the fifth round of last year’s draft, and rode the bench for the first three games of the season. However, once Charles Johnson got injured, Diggs was able

to get on the field and he didn’t disappoint. Diggs led the Vikings in receiving yards against one of the best defenses in the NFL, the Denver Broncos, and just to prove it wasn’t a fluke, Diggs led the team in receiving the next five weeks as well. Diggs finished the season with 720 yards and four touchdowns, easily leading the team in receiving yards (Kyle Rudolph was second with 495 yards). It’s fair to wonder if Diggs will encounter what is known as the sophomore slump. Typically, players regress some in their second years because other teams have tape on the player and can study his strengths and weaknesses to come up with a game play to shut him down. Going back over the tape from last season, it’s clear Stefon is a special player. I don’t think he will hit the slump, considering he will have another year

in the system and should play in all the games this year. On a team that still has the best running back in the NFL, and a dynamic wide receiver who was just drafted in the first round in Laquon Treadwell, Diggs will see plenty of one on one situations and he will thrive in that role. Lynn from North Dakota asks “Have the Vikings done enough in the offseason to improve the offensive line, allowing Teddy to open up the passing game”? Another great question, Thanks Lynn! The Vikings offensive line was it’s weakest link last season and it wasn’t even close. Right after the playoff loss to Seattle, Mike Zimmer chose not to renew Offensive Line Coach Jeff Davidson’s contract. Zimmer has since replaced Davidson with Tony Sparano, a hard-nosed football coach with previous head coaching experience.

The Vikings also brought in free agents Alex Boone and Andre Smith to help bring some viciousness to the offensive line. The best case scenario is that Matt Kalil finally proves he was worth drafting number four overall, Alex Boone lives up to the hype, John Sullivan comes back from injury at 100 percent, Brandon Fusco becomes good again with the move back to the right side, and Phil Loadholt returns from injury as good as ever. That’s a lot of things that have to go right. The bright side is that the Vikings have more depth along the offensive line than they have had in years. With plenty of veterans who are tired of being embarrassed and young players eager to prove their worth, the Vikings should be able to find the right mix along the line to help steady the ship. We don’t need the offensive line to be great.

We just need them to not be horrible. Robert from Minnesota asks “Is Mackensie Alexander good enough to start over Trae Waynes?” Fantastic question, as Alexander is one of my favorite players from this year’s draft. Mackensie was listed on most draft sites as a first round corner, who fell due to his lack of height. However, Mike Zimmer is known around the league as a defensive backs guru, and if he says Alexander is tall enough, who am I to question that? One thing I really like about Mack is his work ethic. ESPN did a fantastic feature on him called “Mackensie Alexander’s field of opportunity: From Florida’s orange groves to the NFL” and if you haven’t seen it yet I highly recommend taking a few minutes to check it out. While Alexander has the ability to be a starter in the

NFL, I don’t think Trae Waynes’ job is in jeopardy. I would imagine Mack will be brought along slowly, just like Waynes was last season. One thing to keep in mind is Captain Munnerlyn’s contract will be up after this season, so it’s entirely possibly Alexander was drafted to be his replacement in the slot. With most teams playing in the nickel defense the majority of the time, the third corner on the team is very important. A lineup of Xavier Rhodes and Trae Waynes on the outside with Alexander covering the slot would be excellent and provide Minnesota the best defensive backfield they have had in a long time. Have any comments or questions of your own? Feel free to reach out to me by e-mail (skoljwright@gmail. com), on Facebook (facebook.com/skoljwright) and on Twitter (@skoljwright). Thanks for reading. Skol!

Hestekin winning all of her events was not a surprise, but those were 3 grueling events that she made look pretty easy. Also our 4x400 m relay taking first was a great showing from some young kids. Sidra Sadowsky and Shawdai Curtis also had great performances for us on the day, with Sidra just missing top 3 in both the mile and 2 mile.” “For me the highlight of the day was the 3rd place team finish and Lizzy Thompson being named Powerade Senior Female Athlete of the Year. Lizzy won that award on shear heart and determination. She is the ultimate leader and showed her competitive

side in coming from behind to win that 4x400 m relay.” “As for state track, I am thinking on the girls side of things it will come down to Hazen, Carrington, and Watford City. With the boys, I am thinking New Town, Trinity, and Des Lacs-Burlington will have a shot.” “As for our relays, I am not sure who will be running in them as of yet. We have a few slight injuries from Saturday that will dictate who runs in what. We will go with who we think can run the best times at state.” Thanks Kelly, the track teams did well this year. The girls should have an-

other good year next season as almost the entire team is back. The boys lose some good seniors and will need some help. Congratulations to Night Hawk Head Coach Kelly Pierce for earning the SW Region Coach of the Year. Sports schedule for the coming week is as follows: - 27-28 May 27-28, State Track Meet at Bismarck - 31 May 31 - June 1, Girls basketball camp - 31 May 31 - June 2 Boys basketball camp at Scranton & Hettinger -31 May 31 - June 2, Elementary boys and girls basketball camp at Hettinger & Scranton See you at the games!

Eye on southwest ND sports North Dakota Sports By SHELDON CHRISTENSON

Head Coach Kelly Pierce of the Night Hawk boys and girls track teams made my column easy this week. He provided me the following insight of the recent SW Regional track meet and the upcoming state track meet. “Regional track and field went about as well as

we could have hoped. We knew on the girls side that it would be difficult to beat Killdeer with all of their points in the pole vault. We had a lot of great performances on both the boys and girls teams.” “We went into the meet wanting to get our boys’ 4x100 and 4x400 m relays qualified and were hoping for Sam in the triple jump, Isaiah in the long jump, and Brandon in the 200m. We were able to get 3 of the 5, which we were really happy with. Isaiah and Brandon competed well, but we know it would be difficult to sneak them both in the top 3 to get to state.” “The girls we were a little

disappointed that we didn’t already have our 4x200 relay qualified prior to the regional. We knew if we could use Hestekin in the 3200 relay we could have scored more points and still won the 4x200 with another runner, but we didn’t want to chance it so we used Hestekin in the 4x200 to make sure we would get the state qualification. Otherwise, we had a great day. Molly Holt in the javelin and Elizabeth Bartholmy in the 100m, and our 4x100 m relay were events we really thought we could get qualified, and all of those athletes performed great to make it a reality. As a team, we just had a really strong meet.

Grand River Roundup NEWS By BETTY OLSON

The State/Tribal Relations meeting in Pierre Monday was short two members, Rep. Lee Qualm and Sen. Ernie Otten, but all the rest of us were able to attend. The focus of this meeting was public safety and after an update by Sec. Steve Emery from the Department of Tribal Relations, we heard testimony from the Attorney General’s office and the Department of Public Safety. The federal government is in charge of law enforcement on the reservations and, to no one’s surprise, they simply aren’t doing the job. With the huge methamphetamine problem on many of South Dakota’s nine reservations, there is a

need for cross-deputations with state law enforcement to help them deal with the crime wave associated with the Mexican drug cartels that have moved on to the reservations. Tribal members from the Rosebud and Yankton reservations gave updates on the public safety issues they are dealing with. Crow Creek and Cheyenne River were also scheduled to give updates, but they didn’t come. Bryce came home from college in Chadron Monday evening and she and Missy went to Dickinson to see Lanie and her baby boy on Tuesday. I went to ladies aid at Slim Buttes Lutheran that afternoon that was hosted by Linda Mohagen. Taz and Amanda got home from their wedding anniversary trip to Hawaii Tuesday evening. Sounds like they had a wonderful time. Wednesday was eighth grade graduation in Buffalo and the last day of school in Harding County. Trig and the other members of the Harding County track team

went to Lemmon Thursday for the regional track meet. Audrey (Leatherberry) Lane, age 89, of Bison, passed away on Wednesday at the Five Counties Nursing Home in Lemmon. Her funeral was Monday in Bison with burial in the Bison Cemetery. I’ve known Audrey and her family all my life. Her late son Tim graduated from Bison High School with me, her uncle, Melvern Eberhart, was married to my great aunt Cora Hallan, and Audrey’s mother, Myrtle (Eberhart) Leatherberry, was one of my favorite people. Audrey’s family has our sympathy. Amanda brought her little cousin Kaydence Gilbert home with her after work on Thursday to help plant her garden. I didn’t get to see either of them because I rode with Rep. Sam Marty to the candidate forum in Belle Fourche that evening. We left early in the afternoon so Sam could deliver some of his campaign signs, pick up some jeans from Pete’s

NORTH DAKOTA KNOWS AND TRUSTS WAYNE STENEHJEM.

Clothing, and have coffee and homemade rhubarb custard pie with his mom in Spearfish. Sam’s sister, Rep. Liz May, also came to the candidate forum. Liz joined us at Helen’s apartment and brought her mom two beautiful paintings to replace the paintings Helen lost in the house fire at the Marty ranch several years ago. We branded another batch of calves Friday morning. Matt, Lanie and Trace came down from Dickinson that afternoon and we all went down to the Cadillac Ranch for the wedding of Jamie Britton and Ty Thybo. Lightening was flashing during the outdoor wedding, but thankfully the storm held off until after this sweet couple was legally married.

For many Americans, the wars in Korea and Vietnam were a great loss of life with questionable results. Seeking comfort in their grief, the families of the 50,000 troops lost in each of these conflicts have searched for some good purpose for their loss. Throughout American history, American wars have always come to a clear and final conclusion with victory. Not so with Korea and Vietnam. They just melted away without marching bands and victory parades. The silence was deafening. Vietnam was especially hard to accept because large numbers of young anti-war protesters filled the streets, burned draft cards, and ran off to Canada. Patriotic enthusiasm was choked by widespread dissent. So what were we doing in Korea and Vietnam? Until World War II, Great Britain was the world’s lion

– the prime keeper of world order. When the War ended, the Great Britain of history was no longer the lion and the mantle of world leadership fell upon the United States. As the lion, it became our responsibility to deal with international threats to stability. We saved Western Europe with the Marshall Plan and stood steadfast against the Russians during the Cold War. Donald Trump misses the point when he complains that we are paying the lion’s share of the cost of NATO. We are paying the lion’s share because we are the lion and as the lion we have the most to lose. During both the Korean and the Vietnam conflicts, we saw Russian-Chinese detente as a serious threat to our security and the safety of the free world so we espoused the containment policy. With this strategy, our job was to contain communist aggression wherever it appeared. So when North Korea attacked South Korea the United States played the lion’s role in checking this grab for power. When the French lost Vietnam, we held firm under the containment policy and took up the cause.

But Vietnam seemed like a mistake when we abandoned the effort under fire. When the Russian-Chinese détente fell apart and Vietnam refused to team up with China, critics had a field day second-guessing the decision to fight in Vietnam. At the time, we had no reason to expect this nationalistic spirit in Vietnam. The critics forget that we can continue to be the lion only as long as we act like a lion. The fact that the lion acted like a lion in Vietnam stands as a warning to future aggressors that they will have to deal with the lion. We don’t know how much aggression has been prevented by the firm stand in Korea and Vietnam. Civil War General Philip Sherman once said that “war is hell.” As a religious people, we have tried to rationalize our association with hell by developing theories of “just” wars. It should offend our Christian conscience to concede that any war can be labeled as just. Even so, in a world of rampant nationalism, wars are still necessary. Korea and Vietnam were two of those necessary wars. So in this Memorial season, we should honor the heroic service of Korea and Vietnam veterans. They fought in necessary wars, they prevented unknown aggressions, they contained communism, and the United States is still the lion. (While we must fight necessary wars, I still donate to the Quakers because the voice of peace must be kept in the public square. War is still hell.)

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

The Future To Come That’s Life By TONY BENDER

Guest Columnist

Note: It’s graduation season. Here’s some advice Tony Bender had for last year’s class. We’re pretty sure it still holds up. Commencement is in the air. Mortarboards are flying like gulls fluttering after farm implements in the spring. Moments before graduation, I watched as seniors waited in the hall and stared down at their phones. One Googled to make sure she had the tassel on the correct side. Instant information in our tech-driven world. For the record, it starts on the right and ends up on the left. I remember my own graduation, but for the life of me can’t remember who the keynote speaker was and what he talked about. The decades since are a blur. The world these graduates step into is an ever weirder and more paranoid place, which is saying something, because we had Nixon. On that note, I will say this to this next generation: Do your homework. Read. A lot. A two-minute snippet of TV news is the equivalent of reading the headlines. If things are going to change in a meaningful way, you have to be informed. And then, vote. Remember to use your voice. Nothing scares the hell out of the establishment like informed, active youth. I’ll meet you on Max

by Janet Schauer. Veterans from all branches of the US military service will be asked to stand and be honored in a musical tribute by the Borderline Singers led by Norm Smith. A complimentary dinner with potluck desserts follows at 11:30. The Borderline Singers perform at 12:00 noon and at 1:00 pm, Randy Raasch will share the story of his family’s five generations of military service and sacrifice. From his great-grandfather’s service in the Civil War, to his grandfather’s World War I service, his father’s and mother’s service in World War II, his service in Afghanistan and into the present with their daughter Jessica’s work as a North Dakota Army National Guard journalist, to their son Zak’s upcoming service in the US Army Infantry School, Airborne School and RASP Rangers Selection, the Raasch family has proven they have what it takes to serve for over five generations. As the third year of the DBHS/M’s five-year commemorative coverage of the World War I Centennial, the Raasch family military artifacts will be on display in the museum’s military booth. On June 17-19 from 1:00 4:00 pm, the on-loan military display will also be open to the public during the national observance of the 50th Anniversary of the National

Yasgur’s farm. There’s a lot brewing in the world today, a lot to sort through. We get the bad news more than the good, the horror and chaos, the darkness, but hope really does spring eternal, and I have hope—confidence, even—in this new generation. I look back with some disappointment at my generation—too many indifferent sheep—but it has been brilliant in many ways, builders of technology that is just the beginning. Today’s graduates, who grew up among the advances, have an opportunity to build from this platform and transform life on this lonely blue planet, and planets beyond. I have hope. And a little advice. Save. Even if it is just the change from your pocket, a few bucks out of each paycheck—whatever—do it. And then, manage it well. Invest. Real estate is a possibility. They only make so much of it. The late James Clement, a wise old lawyer, who was my landlord in Hettinger, told me to put my money in the stock market and let it ride. Well, he was misguided about the second part, as the market grew more volatile. I once ran $60 Lucent stock into the dirt, more out of stubbornness than anything, I think. Don’t let hope get confused with reality. Minimize your losses. Before Lucent crashed, someone asked Warren Buffett if it was time to sell. He said, “Well, no one ever lost money by taking a profit.” Your savings account is insulation for you and your family against the inevitable ill winds.

Historic Preservation Act. “Let’s support the Adams County American Legion Posts in their efforts to honor veterans on this day,” says Betty Svihovec, North Dakota’s and Adams County’s longest-serving county auditor. Memorial Day events at both locations are free and open to the public.

Manage debt. If you are working to pay off debt, you’re really not free. However, debt, when implemented wisely, can build a home or create a business. But it’s a tool, and like a chainsaw, it demands respect. Avoid credit card debt like the plague. Budget. Think. If you can, work for yourself. As rule of thumb, the bigger the company, the less any one individual matters. The days of company loyalty, which may have been a myth, anyway, have evaporated. Keep an open mind. Explore opportunities. There is nothing wrong with a 9-5 job. Some career paths demand it. If you have

the heart of an entrepreneur, consider it part of your education; if it becomes a career, make yourself as invaluable as possible. Resist short-timer’s disease when you leave a job. Work harder than you ever have. Make them miss you. Few things are sweeter than to get a call from a former employer who wants you back. Along the way, I made mental notes about the bosses I worked for and vowed never to treat my employees like the worst of them. I’ve tried to emulate the best, to remember what it was like to be on the other side of the desk. It’s not a bad way to parent, either.

Mayor Joe Shafer called the meeting to order at 7:00 pm. Council members present were; Todd Donner, Dennis Munro, Colten Larson and Travis Finck. Karen Hofland, Reeder Community Center Business Manager was present for financial reporting and Beth Munro, Water Bill Clerk, was present to record the minutes and Char Larson, Reeder Community Center build-

ing manager was present to give a building report. Guests present were attorney Aaron Roseland; DPECI members- Ron Bugner, Barney Nichols, Robert Vekaik, Linda Verhulst, and Della Christensen; Coranne and Don Perry, Frank Smyle, Larry Jackson, Sandra Erdman and Phyllis Enerson. were present from the Reeder Community. Minutes were read from the Reeder City Council meeting held on April 11, 2016. Donner moved to approve the minutes as read with Munro seconding the motion. Donner voted yes, Finck voted yes, Larson voted yes and Munro voted yes. Motion carried. Accounts receivable were read and instructions were given to shut off the water of anyone over 60 days that has not paid in full by the 20th of May. Char Larson provided the Reeder city council with information regarding the Reeder Community Center, discussing the damaged roof and ceiling in room 52; informing the board of the purchase of a new sump pump; Ross installed the pump as volunteer labor; gym is locked due to vandalism; rugs need to be cleaned, but that was tabled for now. Chuck Olson from Benchmark Engineering presented his Contractors application for payment for the road work that went through the City last summer. Travis suggested that someone attend the County Commissioners meeting in June to discuss the final numbers. The Reeder City Council asked for a break down on the work done at the Reeder Fire Department. DPECI presented a business plan to the Reeder City Council. DPECI requested that an escrow account be set up for the gymnasium roof payment. DPECI would write a check to the escrow account for the gymnasium roof payment. There was a discrepancy as to the amount of months they would be responsible for. The City of Reeder begin making payments on Oct. 15th 2015. The City of Reeder has made the payments since that time. Ron Bugner, DPECI representative stated that DPECI would not make any payments towards the gymnasium roof until they received all the income. Munro made the motion seconded by Donner which appointed Aaron Roseland from Crane, Roseland, Privatsky and Melling PC as administrator of the escrow account for the City of Reeder, giving Aaron the approval to open the account under the City of Reeder’s name, accepting the checks written by DPECI and depositing the DPECI checks into the approved escrow account and Aaron Roseland will be authorized as the approved signer of the checks that will be written to the City of Reeder to reimburse them for any loan or reserve payment they have made in the past, current and in the future. This is a City of Reeder account and not a DPECI account. Donner voted yes, Larson voted yes, Finck voted yes, and Munro voted yes. Phyllis Enerson had concerns regarding the business phones during activities. Since the business phones are located in the kitchen and gymnasium areas, it is difficult to have non-business personal answering the incoming calls, hanging up on customers or never taking messages. This problem will be solved for future activities by the separation of business calls and also the use of personal cell phones. She also spoke regarding the Park Board and liability insurance. The Park Board was sent an invoice for their share of the new City of Reeder liability policy. Phyllis stated that they park board has never had to pay liability insurance in the past. Someone from the Reeder city council will attend the next Park Board meeting to discuss this issue. Abandoned buildings and untidy property are a concern of the community. Letters will be sent to violators.

Hettinger Country Club’s first mixed scramble of the year shoots lights out By TED UECKER

HCC Board Member The first Mixed Scramble of the year at Hettinger Country Club (HCC), held Wednesday, May 18, was highlighted by an amazing six under par score from the team of Rob/Krista Warbis, Ethan Andress and Jay Ohm. They chipped in for a birdie 2 on hole #3 and made their approach shot for an eagle 2 on hole #5! What a round! They received cash prizes and hats for their efforts. Overall, 21 golfers made it out for the first Mixed Scramble of the year at HCC. The team of Dennis/Christina Maier, Sheri Uecker, Matt Schneider and Shawn Meador came in 2nd with a respectable three under par round. For their consistent efforts, they received cash prizes and golf calendars (with the upcoming mixed league and mixed scramble nights penciled in!). The Eaton’s and Roseland’s received kid’s prizes for participating in the scramble, with thoughts that their kids would appreciate if they entered the house with fun prizes (for them!). The winners of the individual hole prizes were as follows: Longest Made Putt on #4 – Christina Maier; Closest to the Pin on #8 – Matt Schneider; Closest Second Shot on #7 – Jay Ohm. Each

tal,” Sailer said. Jennifer Seamands who, with Barb West, took over as the event organizer in 2014, said some people have given as much as $100. The event raised $842 last year, and it was reported that the sale again raised over $800 this year, though a final dollar amount was not available when the Record went to press. The money, according to Sailer, is earmarked specifically for scholarships. The group awarded five $200 scholarships until 2007, when they decided to give two students $500. The auxiliary selects the scholars from a pool of students in the region going into the medical field. The sale was held at the West River Ambulance Service building, a first for the event. Seamands said that they had a great deal of support from hospital and EMS employees. Next year the group will celebrate its 40th year, and after all these years Sailer still thinks it is a great event for both he hospital and those who call gardening their passion. “I think the idea behind perennial sharing is just beautiful in that you can give your stuff away, keep some for yourself and your stuff benefits by thinning it out,” Sailer said.

VERNON GRAVNING Vernon J. Gravning, 92, of Polson, Mont., died Sunday, May 15, 2016, at Polson Health and Rehabilitation Center. Vernon was born on Jan. 29, 1924, to Jennings and Lillie (Ringsaker) Gravning in Alexander, N.D. At 16 months of age he lost his mother and newborn sister and was raised by his paternal grandparents Carl and Gina Gravning on the family homestead 30 miles north of Hettinger. Growing up in the midst of the Great Depression and Dust Bowl, he remembered dirt drifting like snow. His father remarried

and Vernon went to live with them in Deadwood, S.D., where he attended and graduated from high school in June 1942. He enlisted in Sept. 1942 in Denver, Colo., and started flight school in December. He advanced quickly in his training and served as an advanced instrument flight instructor until 1946 when he was put on inactive reserve status. Recalled in 1951 to active duty, he flew 100 combat missions against North Korea earning the Distinguished Flying Cross and nine air medals. Discharged from the military in 1956, he went to work for the FAA as an air traffic controller for the next 21 years in Sacramen-

Jonathon Eaton

to, Calif. After retiring from the FAA, he worked for large truck and auto dealerships delivering vehicles for another 27 years. His favorite pastime was camping and trout fishing in the mountains, and

that’s where he could be found on his days off during the summer months. Vernon is survived by his wife of 64 years, Ellen Gravning, of Polson, Mont., and his sons Jon (Jean) of Polson, Mont., and James (Kirsten) of Seattle. He was preceded in death by his mother Lillie and newborn sister, father Jennings, and half-sister Eleanor. Vernon requested no services to take place. Memories and condolences may be sent to the family at www.thelakefuneralhomeandcrematory.com. Arrangements are under the direction of The Lake Funeral Home and Crematory.

It’s the Adams County Record, in Hawaii? “Sew” Much Fun in FACS 7! We, the second semester seventh grade FACS family had “sew” much fun with making our sausage roll pillow cases! We got to pick out material of our choice from Buffalo Creek Quilt Shop on Main Street. Some of the patterns were minions, flow-

ers, hunting, and a patriotic theme. We learned straight stitch, corners and how to sew a French seam. With several mishaps, we became very familiar with the seam ripper. The class did an amazing job!

Guest to share cooking with community Mary Ann Adams, a global worker who focuses on children’s work in Indonesia will be at Hettinger Assembly of God on Sunday, June 5 at 6 p.m. She will be cooking an authentic Indonesian meal and sharing her homemade gourmet chocolates as well as some of her recipes. She has built up a reputation as a “chocolatier” across the

North Dakota area. Please RSVP by June 1 if you are planning to attend. Call 701-567-4348 and leave a message as to the number of people that will be attending so that we can plan for the amount of food to prepare. A free-will offering will be taken. Please come and enjoy a fun, adventurous, and delicious evening.

He grew up in Hawaii and currently resides in Walnut Creek, Calif. Hope to see you at the fourth!

DON’T MOM &

DAD DESERVE THE VERY BEST?

Of course they do! After all, they provided for us from the time we entered this world right up through high school. For some of us, through college. And for a few of us, through young adulthood! Now it is our time – and our duty – to pay it back. As our parents age and need some assistance, they deserve the very best care in the world. Sometimes, unfortunately, we are not living in the same town or lack the ability to provide the required care. So, if necessary, they can receive 5-Star care at Hettinger’s Western Horizons Care Center. And it’s within a stone’s throw of a TOP 20 in the Nation Critical Access Hospital, with a sensational staff of physicians and nurses. What a terrific option -- if that is what needs to happen. But, just like our parents, the facility itself, Western Horizons Care Center, needs some tender loving care. Some assistance you might say. Therefore, we have started the “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign, where we are trying to raise $145,500 to renovate 42 individual resident rooms at our Western Horizons Care Center. We, West River

Health Services Foundation and hospital, have already invested millions of dollars into Western Horizons, going back nine years to the $1.5 million purchase and all of the structural upgrades since. The rooms where our residents reside each night, are in dire need of repairs -- new flooring, new lighting, new paint, new furniture, and new decorations. We are renovating these rooms so our residents feel safe and comfortable, in a more home-like environment. By giving to the Foundation at West River Health Services for this “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign, you can rest assured that Mom and Dad will soon be receiving 5-Star care in a 5-Star Western Horizons Care Center. Please contact Ted at 701-567-3666 to learn more about this worthwhile endeavor. After all, there may come a day, when we’re all faced with the possibility of selecting a care center for mom and dad, our spouse, our brother or sister, our aunt or uncle – maybe even for ourselves. Let’s improve our Care Center Together – One Room At a Time. After all, Mom and Dad deserve the very best!

Consider Giving.
