Summer is finally here with the recent heatwave making everything green start to grow.

A garden of flowers or food is a great way to not only have an excuse to be outside but also be an activity for life.

“Gardening is for everyone, regardless of whether you live in an apartment or on a 100 acre ranch. Gardening gets you out in the fresh air (while respecting social distancing), adds positive energy into your life, gives you something fun to do, and gives a new activity that the whole family can participate in. Through these unpredictable times, let's grow together,” states the National Gardening Association.

In North Dakota, the NDSU Extension Service has long held gardening as a method for adults to help children grow as people. Julie Garden-Robinson, Extension Food and Nutrition Specialist, explains in one of her articles that gardening with children encourages the development of caring, cooperation, exploration, relationships, with the added bonus of teaching about the vital importance of nutrition and physical activity.

Locally, the Cavalier County Extension Service couldn't agree more.

“There is nothing better than family time without a screen.

This is the perfect opportunity and doesn't need to take a whole lot of time out of your

day. The bonding and connecting a parent can do with their children while having a garden is beneficial not only to the child but the parent as well. A person not only gets fruits of their labor in the form of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, they also get fruits of their labor in the form of smiles, giggles, and looks of awe from their children," Katie Henry, Cavalier County Extension Family and Community Wellness Agent, says.

Henry explained that by taking care of a growing garden and tending to the plants' needs, children and adults can find it beneficial to their mental health. Encouraging caring tendencies also helps children learn responsibility. Caring for

a garden requires the gardener to be responsible in making the plants have the best chance to grow into the tasty and nutritious foods that can be harvested later. Henry explained that by giving children duties within the garden such as watering or pulling weeds, adults can help children develop not only physically but mentally and socially as well.

“The challenges, planning, and thought process that goes

grow and develop. Gardening is a great way for children to be able to develop those skills.”

Henry shared one more benefit to a child's growth, their ability to adjust. Henry believes that gardening helps us develop flexibility and patience. Her reasoning for this is that when caring for a garden, adverse situations can occur such as rabbits raiding the garden or even more sinister visitors, bugs that love what you grow. As children and adults deal with these situations, they are also learning how to adjust their original plans and expectations.

“They are important lessons to learn and help us to adjust to other things that may come our way in life,” Henry said.

Children can gain valuable time outdoors in the fresh air and sunshine while also learning so many different aspects of life all thanks to a garden.

Growing their own food helps children learn the life cycle of plants from seed to harvest as well as why home-grown foods can sometimes be more nutritious than produce found in the grocery store.

Bottle Barn gets Corked and Barreled

By Melissa Anderson Republican Editor The only liquor shop in Langdon is now under new ownership as Scott Anderson, owner of the Cork & Barrel chain in Jamestown and Carrington, has added Bottle Barn to the chain. And e r s o n gained official ownership of Bottle Barn as well as the FM Mall building at the end of April.

“I found out about this store b e f o r e Christmas and ended up buying the store.

In this business, the more stores you can get, the better off; you can buy better and your costs get a little better. It’s hard to compete with the big chains, and the only way you can compete if you are a small guy is to buy smaller stores,” Anderson said.

Langdon may be a bit of a drive from Jamestown, but Anderson shared that it hasn’t deterred him or his sons that work with him at the locations.

Gardening helps children get out to grow

They have started bringing their own Cork & Barrel flair to the Langdon location by adding displays and bringing more variety of products.

“Right now, in this business, bourbon is the hottest category out there, and there was hardly any bourbons up here.

So we are bringing some special bourbons and stuff that customers have never seen here before,” Anderson said.

The bourbons that Anderson has brought are also very limited and hard to get. The selection now features bottles priced at over $100.

One of the perks of having a satellite store like Langdon is that Anderson can limit the quantity and stock to only a few bottles in each location making the selection for each location that much better.

The Bottle Barn may be the focus for Anderson, but FM Mall is also receiving some attention. Anderson explained cont. on page 2

TH

The 25th Annual Rendezvous Region Music Fest (RRMF) has been canceled due to COVID 19.

Safety of our community, the people attending, and working at the event is important to us.

School Board to return to normal meetings

By Adam Johnston Republican Writer

Brush with the Bunch

Number 14 in the series “Artist at Work“ brings us to Harry Holen, shown driving a wagon that he has reconstructed. He picked the axles and frame from Gene Feil of Hannah. Once it was in his shop, he replaced the wheels with some he had rebuilt three years earlier, and they fit. He had to contact the Amish for the some spring parts. Getting the frame constructed, Harry built the box to fit the frame. Harry‘s future plans consists of building a cover with canvas and having a “covered wagon“ to show in the Fourth of July parade in Walhalla and other places. Future plans include loading supplies and heading for the Pembina Hills west of Walhalla, with Pete and King in the harnesses and Boomer along for the ride. What a great idea and what a great experience. Good luck, Harry! We at the Brush Bunch have been meeting but have not had a business meeting, so there is no word on the Brush Bunch Art and Sale Show number 49. When we know, you will know.

With this stated, the board held two meetings to cover an array of new and old business.

The first of which being a special meeting of the budget & finance committee to review the current status of the school finances. It was reported, while pending funds are still arriving through various avenues, that the school is on track to be around $200,000 ahead this year in contrast to last year’s funding. The finance committee also discussed that, due to Covid-19 shutdowns, some ancillary staff members were unable to use a portion of their personal leave days. Due to this, the committee recommended they be compensated for this unused benefit at a total onetime cost of $3,500. The board unanimously approved this at their meeting later in the evening, with the stipulation that it is a one-time circumstance for

Cavalier County Courthouse not ready to open yet

By Melissa Anderson Republican Editor

The Cavalier County Commission addressed numerous items of business that will change the current set up in the courthouse from just employee to the public. The Commission, along with Cavalier County Public Health District’s Steph Welsh, discussed the next steps in opening the courthouse to the general public.

The courthouse departments completed an assessment of what they will do for clients as well as keeping employee welfare in mind. Cavalier County Courthouse Maintenance Director Terry Girodat informed the Commission that supplies to increase the safety of employees, such as sneeze guards, would not be available to ship until later in June. Other supplies, such as hand sanitizer, are available. Previously, the commissioners had agreed to wait until the sneeze guard barriers were in place along with other optional personal protective equipment. Welsh explained that the opening of the courthouse was based completely on the comfort level of the Commission and the county employees.

The commissioners ultimately decided to wait on opening the courthouse to the public until the sneeze guards are in place. Masks for those entering the courthouse are going to be asked to be worn. Welsh

explained that the barrier and masks would be a two layer protection as it’s the breathing and talking droplets by people that is the highest cause of spread.

Meetings will continue to be limited in capacity for attendance and live video feeds will continue at this time.

Cavalier County Veterans Service Officer Leon Hiltner informed the commissioners that he would like to begin his resignation process. Hiltner explained that he would like to be finished with the office

by December 31, 2020. Hiltner would like to have time to train the new VSO if needed and also encourages the attendance of the new officer at the fall training session for North Dakota Veterans Service Officers. This is pending the event being held.

Hiltner explained that he has made allowances within his budget for this process. Gellner and Hiltner will begin working on the position summary for advertisement.

Cavalier County Sheriff Greg Fetsch requested a $2 increase in pay for the dispatch as their workload has increased over 300 percent with the addition of Towner County dispatching.

Fetsch explained that with the lifting of restrictions that the workload is expected to only increase. The commissioners and Fetsch discussed if the increase in pay for dispatch could be negotiated with Towner County to increase their share of the cost to operate the dispatch. The

Commission will review numbers on giving the dispatch employees the raise and will review where the pay increase will be coming from to determine if it can be made immediately versus the 2021 budget.

In Other Business • The commissioners discussed the HR position and the ad created by Cavalier County Auditor Lisa Gellner for advertisement in local publications.

They reviewed the ad and approved the position to be advertised.

• The gaming permit for the Langdon Country Club was approved.

• Cavalier County Recorder Vicki Kubat put forward a request for a new computer and monitor for the deputy recorder. The cost would be taken from the preservation fund.

Kubat also informed the commissioners that she would like to have a laptop for her office as conditions with COVID-19 are still unknown.

• Steph Welsh also requested a pay increase for the Health District’s administrative assistant. The commissioners approved giving the increase amount requested.

• The Cavalier County Library will be able to host the Census 2020 training although there are limitations as the location would be in the basement which is not handicap accessible nor will restrooms be available for use during the sessions.

the 2019-20 school year.

Also discussed, both by a special finance committee meeting and during the regular meeting, was the possible allocation of Covid-19 relief funds available to the school system.

There is currently $70,000 in funds that may be claimed. If utilized, approximately $7,000 of this sum would be allocated to St. Alphonsus School. However, the board has yet to apply these funds to specific areas due to concerns on how to effectively allocate them. When used, these funds must be used as relief for Covid-19 related issues. Several possible avenues briefly discussed ranged from disinfection equipment to potentially having a part-time counselor, along with a fulltime counselor, to help children negatively affected by the Covid-19 epidemic. With Superintendent Daren Christianson citing the ever-changing nature of state level guidance and the possibility of the situation being very different come fall, there was a reluctance to form a plan for these funds too soon.

Due to this, the board chose to make this decision in late July or early August.

In other business, the building committee will meet soon

to discuss another mill levy vote for this October. The proposed levy is primarily focused on raising funds for a new boiler system in the Langdon Area Elementary School. It would also focus funds towards other general maintenance and improvements the school system feels they need to undertake.

No decision has yet been made on what will be proposed on the ballot; the committee will convene before the scheduled July meeting to give a recommendation to the board at that meeting.

Finally, changes will be coming to the current lunch program available to students 18 and under. The program will end effective June 30, even though it could continue until August. The school came to this decision due to a lack of available employees to run the program beyond the end of June.

The school board election results were also canvassed. Both members up for re-election, Dawn Kruk and Dave Hart, ran unopposed. Due to Covid-19 protocols, all votes were submitted by mail-in ballot. The results reflected the reinstatement of Kruk and Hart. Kruk garnered 359 votes, Hart 295.

Upside Down Under

By Marvin Baker

Too few loonies in N.D....

It isn’t often that the Canadian dollar drops below 70 cents U.S., but it has in this new age of responding to a pandemic. And, as you might imagine, when the loonie goes under that benchmark, it evaporates like gas on a hot day. It’s now back up to 74 cents.

During the pandemic, people were hoarding toilet paper of all things. Why hoard toilet paper for a respiratory disease? Anyway, toilet paper, bread, baking supplies, hand sanitizer and rubbing alcohol, all hoarded.

I like to hoard the Canadian dollar. A little here and a little there and the next thing you know, you have enough to pay for a weekend in Winnipeg or Regina. Unfortunately, times have changed, and the loonie is getting harder to find now that credit cards are used for so many purchases.

There was a time not so long ago when the Bank of North Dakota was a clearing house for the Canadian dollar in North Dakota.

I don’t remember how I found out, but I discovered that BND had lots of loonies in its vaults. So, I started buying it from 70 to 73 cents on the U.S. dollar while I was a college student in Bismarck in the mid 1980s.

You can imagine being in college, a person doesn’t have money to spend on something like another currency.

I was in the National Guard so had a little money at my disposal, and I used it wisely by purchasing loonies at BND whenever I had the chance, and the price was right.

Over the two years I was at “Bismarck Junior College,” I managed to collect more than $2,300. It seemed easy because, yes, it is legal currency, but there really wasn’t anywhere to spend it without taking a big hit on each dollar spent. So I sat on it, and it accumulated. When I got to UND in the fall of 1986, going to school just got a whole lot more expensive, and I was too far away from making a Friday afternoon trip to the Bismarck bank, so the accumulation stopped.

As time went on, interest rates in Canadian banks were rising rapidly, so I decided to open an account at the Royal Bank of Canada in Winnipeg. At 70 cents, I was using the U.S. dollar to buy $1.30 Canadian. That $1.30 was deposited into a CD that earned 9.5 percent interest for seven years. When I opened the account, I was told I was the first person in Winnipeg to have a seven-year CD instead of five, at least in the Royal Bank system.

Little did anyone know that in 1991 a new tax in Canada called the Goods and Services Tax would cause Canadians to flood into North Dakota to spend their hard earned loonies.

After Prime Minister Jean Chretien announced the GST was in force, every day Canadians must have been really mad, because they came to Fargo, Grand Forks, Bismarck, Minot and many other places like Bottineau, Langdon and Devils Lake to spend

Both dogs are family companions and live the good life. Thanks to COVID-19, I have spent a lot of time outdoors with my kiddos and my dogs. I noticed something.

Shelby has the experience behind her but lacks the drive now. She is a first-rate retriever but doesn't really have it in her anymore to go after that ball and bring it back without question. She will take off at a trot, wander around, than come back, lay down and look for her pets for a job well done. I give them to her

because she at least trotted out there a few times and made the effort.

Misty is newer to the work that we have set her up for. She knows the rules and what to do. She is tireless and ready to go after that ball no matter how many times I throw it and brings it back to me ready for her next job. Doesn't matter how far, how fast, or how bouncy that ball is, she chases it down and brings it back. Even when the play time is done and she can relax, she is ready and eager to take on that bouncing menace.

When hunting season comes the decision on who to take on the trip may be hard because Shelby has the familiarity and experience, but Misty has the endurance and the drive to do a job well done. Who would you take?

their money on furniture, cars, clothing, food and even farm machinery.

You could go to West Acres shopping mall in Fargo and swear you were at Polo Park in Winnipeg because of all the Manitoba license plates.

That meant a boom for the retail, hospitality and tourism industry in North Dakota, and many of those dollars were sent to the Bank of North Dakota after being converted locally. It meant millions of loonies flowing into the state, and there was a short time, the first quarter of 1991, in which the city of Fargo took in $30 million in Canadian currency. It was said that more than 90 percent of the people living in the city of Winnipeg visited Fargo at one time or another in 1991. Grand Forks has always had a strong Canadian dollar presence and because of it, holds numerous Canadian businesses including a major hotel called Canad Inns.

Minot must have plenty of money because it repeatedly rejected putting incentives in place to bring the Canadian dollar from Regina, Moose Jaw and Saskatoon. The loonie has always been just a trickle in Minot, and Manitoba license plates are about as rare as Puerto Rico or Hawaii.

These days you just don’t see the physical money floating around anywhere. It’s because credit cards have made it all digital so no actual money changes hands like the $30 million did in Fargo, and again, that was only three months in one year.

My money in the Royal Bank continued to accumulate, and when I moved to Langdon in 1996, I had plenty of money to pay for weekend trips to Winnipeg. That was a lot of fun.

Dear Editor: Challenging times call for extraordinary action. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted supply chains, interrupted raw product and food supplies, and led to a worldwide economic downturn.

Business owners across the state are working nonstop to figure out how to save their businesses and pay their employees in a time of great uncertainty. In times like this, our local communities and business owners need a partner to help stabilize the state’s economy and get it rolling again.

The North Dakota Department of Commerce stepped up to be that trusted partner.

By listening to statewide and local economic development organizations, business owners and community leaders, Commerce was able to quickly pivot, address pressing needs and provide assistance and insight in a rapidly changing environment. Throughout this crisis, they helped roll out federal assistance programs, hosted multiple webinars to keep stakeholders informed, created a one-stop website for COVID-19 business resources, and fielded numerous phone calls from citizens looking for help.

Commerce and all of state government demonstrated responsive and effective leadership during a challenging time.

Commerce is working with local officials and economic developers to help communities plan for recovery. Economic development leaders look forward to continuing to work

Dear Editor

with Commerce in efforts to attract and retain jobs and diversify the state’s economy. These efforts are even more needed now as North Dakota faces high unemployment rates and an oil and gas industry weakened by a pandemic-related slump in demand.

Our state is built by hardworking, compassionate and creative people. These traits will serve us well as we move forward with economic recovery. In these challenging times, I’m thankful for the North Dakota Department of Commerce and the extraordinary support they continue to provide.

Shawn Wenko Williston, ND President Economic Development Association of North Dakota Letter to the Editor: The traditional length of a treatment program is an addict’s first choice. Not wanting to miss out on work, holidays, or other responsibilities makes someone more hesitant to committing to long term treatment. We have to keep in mind that when choosing a treatment that will promote the goal of staying drug free for good is not all about length of time but effectiveness towards the goal. Traditional 28 day programs do not offer as much time for their body to heal before they dive into the reasons why the addict turned to drugs. Whether it be from childhood or the roller coaster of addiction, a longer treatment program offers the time to discover and conquer the root of the problem, drugs were thought to be a solution for.

For more information on choosing treatment, go to https://www. narconon-suncoast.org/blog/ long-term-treatment-vs-traditional28-day-program.html. If you are in need of a referral to a treatment center, call us at 877-841-5509.

Written by: John Milburn Clearwater, Fla. Letter to Editor: AARP understands the worry and heartache felt by families and residents of long-term care facili-

ties who haven’t been able to see each other for months. We, too, look forward to the day when these facilities are once again open to visitation.

But we also need to ensure our most vulnerable remain safe. In North Dakota, 55 of the 75 COVID-19 related deaths have been in long-term care (LTC) facilities.

For months, we have been advocating at both the state and federal level for virtual visitation at every LTC facility. We have repeatedly asked that the state require all LTC facilities to proactively work to connect residents with their loved ones virtually. North Dakota has more than 5,300 residents living in LTC facilities. They want to communicate with their families and families are anxious to know what is happening to their loved ones.

All LTC facilities should be required to offer and facilitate these virtual visits. The state has even been given a federal grant to facilitate virtual visitation, but it is our understanding the state has yet to use those resources to connect families with their loved ones. There is no reason residents and loved ones should be without virtual visitation. In fact, it should be happening in every nursing home and it’s long overdue.

For those with a spouse, sibling, parent, or other loved one in a nursing home, AARP recommends asking the facility to help them connect with their loved ones using video-chat applications like Skype and Zoom. Nursing homes should set up a regular schedule for you to speak with your loved one by phone or video call.

Some nursing homes will be open to visitation before others. We don’t know when all will be safe for in-person visitation. Until then, virtual visitation gives residents and families an alternate avenue to connect.

The new school year will be here before you know it and the North Dakota Department of Health (NDDoH) would like to remind parents to make sure their children are up to date on immunizations.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of doses of vaccine administered in the state decreased as parents were keeping their children home and providers were responding to COVID-19.

It will likely be months before a COVID-19 vaccine is available. In the meantime, we have safe and effective vaccines available for many preventable diseases—but they will only work if we use them,” said Jenny Galbraith, epidemiologist with the NDDoH. North Dakota state law requires students in grades kindergarten through 12 to meet a minimum number of required immunizations before they are allowed to attend school. The NDDoH is encouraging parents to get their children vaccinated now, rather than waiting until right before school starts or before COVID-19 may increase in the fall.

“Ensuring children are up to date on immunizations is the best way to keep students healthy and stop the spread of infectious diseases such as measles, mumps, and pertussis in our schools,” said Galbraith.

“Children who are not immunized are not only at risk of becoming ill from a variety of diseases, but are also able to transmit diseases to others, including those who may not be able to be vaccinated due to various medical conditions.”

If you haven’t done so, check with your health care provider to find out which vaccines your child needs. Once your child is up to date, be sure to get a copy of his or her immunization record to submit to the school. You can find more information about which vaccines are required for school at health. nd.gov/immunize.

Cost should not be a barrier to getting children up to date on immunizations. Children who are uninsured or whose insurance does not cover vaccines can receive vaccine at no cost through the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program. Con-

tact your health care provider or local public health unit if you believe your child could be eligible for VFC vaccines.

Children who are not in compliance, either up to date or have a signed exemption form, by October 1 will be excluded from school for not meeting requirements.

For more information on school immunization requirements, contact Jenny Galbraith, NDDoH, at 701-328-2378 or visit our website at health.nd.gov/immunize.

Cavalier County Health District is taking appointments for all types immunization appointments including back to school. Call to check if your child is up to date or schedule and immunization appointment at 256-2402.

Hebron woman wins national scholarship

By Marlene Kouba Taizalee Glass of Hebron is the lucky recipient of a $1000 national scholarship for 2020. It is called the Marilyn Spiker/Sheila Massey Memorial Scholarship and only two in the nation were awarded. It is sponsored by the Foundation for Agricultural Education (FAED) and Women Involved in Farm Economics (WIFE). The scholarship was open to any woman who would begin her first or second year of agricultural courses in college. The other winner was Kellie Rhodes from Kansas.

Miss Glass is the daughter of Bryan and Tanya Glass of Hebron.

She was active in high school, such as FFA, basketball and volleyball and served as an officer or leader for each one. She was also active in 4-H and spent her summers working for Wald Fencing where she did their billing, sold vaccines, fencing supplies, minerals and much more.

She knows how farmers struggle to stay in business and the problems they endure. Small operations struggle to stay in business but technology has helped. She wants to pursue a career in Agribusiness and be an agricultural insurance agent someday. Her current plans are to attend

Bismarck Junior College next fall. " Ta i z a lee is the tenth national winner to come from North Dakota", says Phyllis Howatt of Langdon who is the state coordinator of the scholarships. "The first one was Beth Payne of Elgin in 1999 and others were from Belfield, Mott, Richardton, Osnabrock, Langdon, Forbes, Carrington and Rolla for the contest that started in 1993. One contestant from each state is chosen each year before being forwarded on to the national level. There have been some very worthwhile applicants", said Howatt.

WIFE is a grassroots organization committed to improving profitability in production agriculture and FAED is its educational division. For more information, contact Howatt at 701-256-2151.

Cemetery, rural Fairdale.

Marion Arlene Wiken was born December 28, 1927 in Grand Forks, the daughter of Arnt and Margaret (Amble) Wiken, where she grew up and attended school, graduating from Central High School in 1945.

She was baptized and confirmed in Sharon Lutheran Church. She attended the University of North Dakota for 3 1/2 years. She taught school in Fairdale for one year and Bathgate for four years. She was united in marriage to Howard Hove at the Sharon Lutheran Church in Grand Forks on June 22, 1952. The couple lived in Sacramento, Calif. until 1954, when they returned to North Dakota to reside on the Hove homestead farm. They established Hove Construction Company. She was actively involved with the business as a bookkeeper.

She was also the bookkeeper for the family farming operation until April of 2020. She taught school in the Osnabrock Township Consolidated School for two years in the late1950’s. She found great joy in the education of her students and loved sharing fond memories of her students, whom she remembered all by name. She and Howard also built a trailer court in 1970 during the ABM construction, which they eventually incorporated into a city called “Hove Mobile Park City”.

She and Howard have two sons: Michael (Brenda) of Bismarck and Mark (Ingrid) of Grand Forks. She enjoyed the lives and interests of her four grandchildren: Matthew, Benjamin, Erik and Brooke. She was a member of Highland Lutheran Church, rural Fairdale, until it was closed in 1976, and since then an active member of Dovre Lutheran Church in Osnabrock, serving on the stewardship committee, call committee, WELCA offices, and as a voting delegate to the Eastern

North Dakota synod assembly. She has taught Sunday School and Vacation Bible School. She was also a delegate from the Grafton Conference to the National Convention of the American Lutheran Church, held at San Diego, Calif. in 1982.

She and Howard were active with the Lutheran Brotherhood Branch officers for 26 years. They were members of the Century Club at the Park River Bible Camp and did volunteer work there, including working at the annual lutefisk and meatball dinner. Howard passed away in 2009. She also served on the Cavalier County Library Board for seven years.

Marion is survived by two sons, Michael (Brenda) Hove of Bismarck and Mark (Ingrid) Hove of Grand Forks; four grandchildren: Matthew (Melissa) Hove of Groton, CT, Benjamin Hove of San Diego, Calif., Erik (Hannah) Hove of East Grand Forks, Minn. and Brooke (Joshua) Harris of Lolo, Mont.; four greatgrandchildren: Sofia and Roman Hove, Jaxon Hove and Violet Harris; brother Lyle (Marion) Wicken of Grand Forks; sister-in-law Ardelle Krom of Grafton; and many dear nephews, nieces and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 57 years, Howard, (July 2009); sister Gloria (Newell) Anderson; sister-in-law Bella (Elmer) Hammer; and brother-in-law Donald Krom.

Marion enjoyed a very active and full life. She will be deeply missed by her loving family and many cherished friends.

The family would like memorials directed to Highland Cemetery, 606 1st St., Langdon, ND, 58249 Brooks Funeral Home of Langdon is in charge of arrangements.

Online condolences are available at www.brooksfuneralhomelangdon. com.

Devotions by community pastors This devotion is submitted by Pastor Paul Olson Interim pastor at Emmanuel Evangelical Church, Langdon

How God Speaks (Part 4 of 4) In this four part series we have so far seen that God speaks through His Word (the Bible), through His Son Jesus, and through His Spirit.

We will lastly see how He speaks to us through creation.

Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens are telling the glory of God and His expanse is declaring the work of His hands.” Indeed, any honest person can see the incredible design and complexity in our universe. Look at the plant kingdom (especially the flower) and the variety of birds and mammals!

Think about the hydrolic cycle, the perfectly designed oxygen and carbon gases and so much more. Yes, God’s creation speaks to the whole world that He is real and He is allpowerful and all-knowing.

Creation tells us that mankind is God’s crown of creation (Psalm 8:39) and that everything about you and me is very important to Him (I Peter 5:7). As believers in Jesus Christ, the creator God is speaking to a lost world through our life. In Matthew 5:15-16, Jesus tells us that someone is looking at our life. In John 1:6-8, John says someone is listening to our words. Paul says in II Corinthians 3:2-3 that someone is reading our life!

All of this should challenge each Christian to be committed (Romans 12:1-2), be compassionate (Romans 10:1), and be consistent (Hebrews 13:15) in our walk with our wonderful Lord!

We’d love to hear from you!

Community Fireworks show set for July 3

actly what we hope to achieve again this year.

The fireworks will be held at the softball diamond near the High school at approximately 10:15 on Friday, July 3rd. To stay in line with social distancing guidelines, we suggest that everyone stay in their vehicles or gather in small groups separate from others. If you would like to contribute to this event, donations can be sent to 1120 15th Ave., Langdon.

MERCH! #shoplangdon #shoplocal

TOO CUTE!

Farmers and Merchants State Bank is happy to welcome our customers back into our bank lobby beginning Monday, June 22, 2020!

We ask that our customers follow these guidelines when coming to the bank: • If you have been exposed to COVID-19 or are experiencing flulike symptoms, we continue to ask that you stay home and use online banking. If that is not possible, please use our drive-up option instead.

• In an effort to minimize contact between customers and staff members, we invite you to continue to use the bank’s drive-up lanes, ATM, night deposit box and internet banking services whenever possible.

• We ask that ONLY those conducting a transaction enter the

lobby. Do not bring friends or family members with you. If you have children with you, we encourage you to use the drive-up to the extent possible.

• Please pay attention to the social distancing floor decals and maintain a 6-foot distance between yourself and other customers.

• Once you have completed your transactions, we ask that you NOT stay and “socialize”. We are happy to offer service in our lobby again, but we also need to do our part to reduce our time spent in close contact with others.

• We may limit the number of customers in the lobby at any one time in order to maintain safe occupancy levels. You may be asked to briefly wait outside if the lobby is full.

• Our restrooms will NOT be

available for customer use.

For the health and safety of our customers AND employees, staff members have been instructed to stay home if they have been exposed to or have COVID symptoms.

We’ve also taken extra sanitizing measures for the health and safety of both our customers and staff members. Some of these measures include: hand sanitizer throughout the bank lobby, plexiglass barriers at teller line and officer desks, wiping down common areas between customers, and additional cleaning and disinfecting procedures.

We thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue to work on the best ways to meet our customers’ needs AND maintain a healthy and safe environment for our customers and staff members!

Income eligibility guidelines for the North Dakota Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) have increased based on changes in the federal poverty levels. The change increases the amount of income a family can make and still qualify for services. Effective June 1, 2020, a family of four can earn up to $4,040 each month (or $48,470 annually) and meet the new WIC income eligibility requirements.

“Thank you to the dedicated WIC staff who are working to ensure that mothers and young children have safe access to healthy foods, breast-

feeding support, referrals to health, accurate information during this public health emergency and other services,” said Colleen Pearce, director for WIC. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, North Dakota WIC has made changes to ensure that WIC is a safe place. Staff are providing many WIC services over the phone, but when families need to come to the office, precautions are being taken.

This includes having staff wear masks, cleaning touched surfaces between appointments, and providing for six feet of space between individuals.

If you are pregnant or have children under the age of 5 years, you could be eligible for WIC. WIC is available to working and nonworking families. Medicaid, TANF or SNAP participants are automatically income eligible. Families may qualify for WIC by meeting income guidelines for the household. Those newly unemployed or experiencing reduced income due to decreased working hours, may also qualify.

Find information and qualifying criteria on the North Dakota WIC website at www.health.nd.gov/prevention/wic.

The 5th Annual Community Fireworks show will take place in Langdon on July 3rd !

When Covid 19 caused the cancellation of many events this summer, the Outreach Committee at the Emmanuel Evangelical Church of Langdon decided a splash of excitement was still needed in our city for the upcoming holiday.

For the past three years the church has provided food, fun, and fireworks for the whole community to enjoy. They felt the safest way to proceed this year was to go back to the beginning, where fireworks were the only attraction that year.

This will allow families to social distance and still enjoy the show.

A spectacular fireworks display brings joy to any age, and that is ex-

Jake’s take on sports

By Jake Kulland

Some good news on the shoulder Let’s start this week with a something somewhat positive. My injured left shoulder was evaluated recently, and thankfully, at least for now, I am not going to have to have surgery on it. A lot depends on how it heals, but that seems to be better by the day. I’m definitely not out of the woods yet, but hopefully going in the right direction. I’m in a sling for two weeks, but that’s nothing if I can avoid surgery. Let’s talk up more good news this week.

Golf Tourney June 20 at the Langdon Country Club Let’s remind you one more time that the Langdon Country Club is hosting a fundraising golf tournament on June 20. This is for course and clubhouse improvements, and is open to anyone. It’s a 2-person scramble format, and a shotgun start will begin the day at 10am.

Also club wants to remind golfers that the Men’s City Tournament will take place June 30th, and the Miller Lite Tournament sponsored

by Schwann Wholesale, is now set for July 25th and is now open to men and women aged 21 and over.

Langdon Red Sox at home this week The Langdon Red Sox Class B Independent League Baseball team is off and running with a 6-1 record

and they are unbeaten in league games. The Red Sox are at home for a double header on June 24 versus Minto at 6 p.m. This would be a great time for you to come out and see the boys in action. Langdon has a limited game schedule and this will be their last home game for quite some time.

Demolition Derby coming to Walhalla We leave this week with the great news that a fun activity has been added for our area. A demolition derby is coming to Walhalla in the industrial park on June 27 3 p.m.

Gates will open at 1:30 p.m. that day, with the pits open from 11-2.

For more information contact Nathan Blair and Danielle Follin. That should be a fun day.

Langdon Red Sox get two league wins over PR and Larimore BOXSCORE

By JAKE KULLAND Republican Sports Writer

The Langdon Red Sox Class B Independent baseball team played two league games when they hosted Park River on June 12th, then traveled to Larimore on June 17th.

The Red Sox beat the Pirates 8-3, and won over Larimore 3-1. Langdon’s record is 6-1 on the year, and 3-0 in District 5 league games. After entertaining Grafton on June 18, the Red Sox next action is at home versus Minto for two league game at American Legion Field on June 24.

Langdon 8, Park River 3 In their game with PR, the Pirates took an early lead on a Nathan Zavalney homer in the top of the first.

But a Langdon stormed right back with four runs in the bottom of the inning, two of which came on a two run homer by Simon Romfo. Two more runs came with the help of hits by Carter Tetrault and Cooper Zimmer.

The Red Sox would add two more runs in the third, with one in an RBI single by Tucker Welsh to score Jack Romfo. Langdon would add a run scoring single by Grant Romfo to bring home Welsh in the fifth inning, plus Simon Romfo scored an unearned run in the sixth to cap the scoring.

Grant Romfo was great on the mound for Langdon, allowing just two earned runs in the complete game win. He struck out nine batters while no allowing a walk on 101 pitches. Zavalney hit two solo homers and struck out 12 batters on the hill for the Pirates. Park River committed six errors in the field.

Langdon 3, Larimore 1 The Red Sox dodged a couple of thunderstorms when they took on Larimore. Langdon had to work for all three runs they would get in the

The Red Sox scored first with two runs in the second inning. Carter Tetrault got on base after being hit by a pitch, then he would come all the way around to score after stealing second making it home in two Larimore throwing errors. Later in the same inning Peyton Ullyott doubled into the left field corner, and he would later score on a single

by Simon Romfo. Langdon would get their third run in the third inning, when Tetrault would steal two bases and come in to score on an RBI double by Grant Romfo.

Brennan Kitchin would make those runs stand up with a fine pitching performance, striking out seven batters in six and a third innings pitched. Grant Romfo came on in the seventh to get the last two outs for a save. Jack Romfo has three hits in the game for the Red Sox, all on infield hits.

Recent Legal Rulings on Dicamba Formulations Designed for Over the Top Applications to Tolerant Soybeans On June 3, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court ruled that EPA had not carried out their statutory responsibility with respect to the issuance of three dicamba registrations: Engenia, FeXapan, and Xtendimax. As a consequence, the court vacated their registrations. Essentially, this is legal talk for saying these registrations no longer exist. You can read the ruling here: https://cdn. ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2020/06/03/19-70115.pdf What was so unprecedented about this ruling is the court did not give EPA any directions on cancelling these products. After reviewing the ruling, registrants stopped distribution to retailers on June 4. By that afternoon, the North Dakota Department of Agriculture (NDDA) indicated in a news release, that the sale and use of these products were no longer legal. By the afternoon of June 5, the NDDA reversed their earlier position and instructed dealers and applicators that sales and use may resume under state registration until such time as EPA clarified what the court ruling meant. You can read that statement here: https://www.nd.gov/ndda/ news/north-dakota-state-registration-dicamba On the evening of June 8, EPA released a 12-page order regarding the distribution, sales and use of Engenia, FeXapan, and Xtendimax.

You can read the actual order here; it is a cancellation order: https:// www.epa.gov/sites/production/ files/2020-06/documents/final_ cancellation_order_for_three_dicamba_products.pdf The main points of the order are as follows: 1. Distribution or sale by the reg-

istrant. Distribution or sale by the registrant (BASF, Bayer and Corteva) of all existing stocks of the three products listed below is prohibited effective as of the time of the order on June 3, 2020, except for distribution for the purposes of proper disposal.

2. Distribution or sale by persons other than the registrant. Distribution or sale of existing stocks of the three products listed above that are already in the possession of persons other than the registrant is permitted only for the purposes of proper disposal or to facilitate return to the registrant or a registered establishment under contract with the registrant, unless otherwise allowed in item #3 or #4 below.

3. Distribution or sale by commercial applicators. For the purpose of facilitating use no later than July 31, 2020, distribution or sale of existing stocks of the three products listed above that are in the possession of commercial applicators is permitted.

4. Use. Use of existing stocks of products listed above inconsistent with any respect with the previously approved labeling accompanying the product is prohibited. Use after July 31, 2020 is prohibited.

In addition, they reminded applicators that, under State 24C labeling, applications beyond June 30 are prohibited. You can read their statement here: https://www.nd.gov/ndda/ news/epa-orders-cancellationdicamba-products-includes-provisions-existing-stocks Moving forward, the Plaintiffs in the lawsuit contend that EPA’s June 8 order does not comply with the Court’s ruling.

seek some additional relief from the Court. At the time of this writing, it is impossible to know what, if anything, this will mean for users of these products.

When the lawsuit was filed, Syngenta had yet to receive a registration for Tavium. It is not named in the court ruling, so Tavium may continue to be used as directed by Federal and State labeling on tolerant soybeans.

BASF, Bayer, Corteva, and Syngenta are all seeking registrations for their products for 2021 and beyond. Again, at the time of this writing, it is impossible to know if these products will be available next season and under what sort of labeling instructions. In the meanwhile, users of Xtend traited soybeans and users of the herbicides designed for them should closely monitor Federal and State directives to stay in compliance with the law.

lot of nutrition for not very many calories. I also find that the seeds are not as much of a nuisance to me as raspberry seeds are.

Even though rhubarb is not as fresh of a taste as strawberries (it’s difficult to get past the sour), it has always been a staple in my life, and over the years there are several things I have learned about it. A person is not supposed to eat rhubarb stalks after a freeze because the leaves have a poison in them that will leak into the stem after a freeze. It is actually a vegetable instead of a fruit. That’s right: a VEGETABLE. That one shocked me.

But, rhubarb always comes back to good memories of growing up on my parent’s farm, cutting rhubarb with my sister on a hot summer day and waiting for her to break out in hives from the leaves, or standing in Grandma’s kitchen waiting for the strawberry-rhubarb sauce to get done cooking so we could have a bowl full.

To combine strawberries and rhubarb together was a stroke of genius as far as I’m concerned. It may partly be due to the memories attached, but I truly do enjoy the taste of the sauce. Strawberry-rhubarb sauce has many uses and can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. I have tried it on pancakes, ice cream, cheesecake, bread slices, and dry and hot cereal.

But, my favorite, the way grandma served it, was just the sauce, still a little warm, in a bowl, with a spoon.

Whenever I sit down and have a bowl, the memories of my grandma come back full force, and I can see, hear, and smell everything I experienced on those summer Saturdays at Grandma’s kitchen table.

By Katie Henry NDSU Extension Family and Community Wellness Agent Strawberries, Rhubarb, and Memories As I gazed at the multitude of blossoms on the strawberry plants in my garden the other day, I got a nostalgic feeling thinking of summers of my past. Strawberry-rhubarb sauce was one of the staples of my paternal grandmother every spring, and as soon as the rhubarb is ready to pick, I await anxiously for the strawberries to follow.

Even though our growing season is shorter here in North Dakota, we have the privilege of being able to grow certain things that cannot be grown elsewhere, like rhubarb and everbearing strawberries. It’s so refreshing to take advantage of it every year. I feel as though one part of the excitement of the fresh produce is due to the fact that we have to wait for the yummy goodness. Another is due to the fact that we can pick fruits and vegetables at their premium ripeness and get the full benefits of it being fresh. A third part is because of the memories that may be attached to them.

Strawberries have always been a favorite fruit of mine. The flavor is refreshing and gives a burst of summer as soon as the flavor reaches the taste buds. They are fun to just pick and eat as you walk through the garden. They are versatile and can be used in many different ways such as pies, smoothies, and salads.

As an adult, I have learned more about nutrition, and really appreciate the fact that strawberries hold a

I debated sharing this story and Grandma’s “recipe” with all of you, as it’s one of those things that feels like a precious gem or large golden nugget that I don’t dare let anyone see. But, I decided that it would be best to share, as the best things in life can’t be fully enjoyed if they are kept locked in a vault. And, to be honest, the “recipe” is probably only special to me and a select few family members. Google has a million recipes for strawberry-rhubarb sauce, and I’m sure they are all similar to Grandma’s. But, the best things in life have always been those things that are shared with the world for everyone to enjoy. And maybe, just maybe, if you feel so inclined, you may use this recipe or find another one that can be special for you and your loved ones, and make your own memories, and that is why I share my “precious gem”.

How I Remember Grandma Making Strawberry-Rhubarb Sauce Equal parts: strawberries (stems removed) and rhubarb (chopped) (example: 1 cup strawberries, 1 cup rhubarb) Then add: Water (add just until visible within the strawberries and rhubarb) Sugar (to taste) 1. Boil strawberries, rhubarb, and water in sauce pan until sauce-like, stirring frequently.

2. Add sugar to taste (often times with extremely ripe garden strawberries, very little sugar is needed).

3. Boil down until desired thickness, stirring frequently.

4. Enjoy!

The sauce keeps in the fridge for a few days. It can be frozen for a short period of time and still maintain consistency. This is not a recipe to be used for canning purposes.

Even though Grandma didn’t have an official “recipe” so to speak, she passed the sauce to the next generation, and the memories that go with it are special. It was a spring ritual that I looked forward to every year. Though I have tried for years to make the sauce, I still wish Grandma was here to do it for me, as her sauce always tasted the best. Even though I try my best, and it never measures up to Grandma’s, the end result of my sauce is always the same: memories wrapped in deliciousness as soon as it touches my tongue. My wish for you is that you find the joy in summer magic and make memories as good as strawberryrhubarb sauce in Grandma’s kitchen.

Premier Benefits to discuss the possibility of contracting HR services.

Premier Benefits stated they would do an assessment of the county’s needs and then give a quote on what the needed services would cost. The question of needing to advertise was discussed. The commissioners were in agreement to proceed and include Austin Lafrenz in future virtual meetings with Premier Benefits. Cindy Stremick, Treasurer, met with the commissioners on behalf of the salary committee and stated that other than a request for an increase for the Dispatchers in the Sheriff’s Department due to the contracting of 911 services for Towner County, the salary committee was proposing a zero-pay increase for 2021. This request was based on all the uncertainties with the pandemic and an anticipated increase in health insurance in July 2021. Stremick also stated that if pay increases were given in other departments, the salary committee reserves the opportunity to request increases for the rest of the departments. Stremick also stated that interest rates remained the same at the banks and that she would continue to update when there was a change. There was discussion on the lockdown status of the county offices due to COVID-19. After much discussion, it was decided to bring all courthouse employees back into the offices, with the exception of the Clerk of Court which would be following the court administrator’s plan for getting all employees back in the office on June 15th. The Northern Valley Human Service Zone would also discuss the returning of the zone employees at their upcoming meeting on June 8th. The need for each office to complete a Workplace Assessment was discussed, as well as several other items that would need to be addressed before buildings would be ready to re-open. A tentative date of June 17th was set to re-open the courthouse if everything was in order when it is reviewed at the next commission meeting. At 11:00 a.m.

Stanley Dick made a motion to recess the regular commission meeting for County Equalization, seconded by Greg Goodman, motion carried. At 12:30 p.m. David Zeis made a motion to adjourn the County Equalization meeting and reconvene the regular commission meeting, motion carried. Anitha Chirumamilla, NDSU Extension, introduced Katie Henry, the newly hired Family and Consumer Wellness Agent. The commissioners welcomed Henry. Chirumamilla also informed the commission that Lesley Lubenow had taken over as the new area NDSU Extension di-

rector. The temporary pay for the administrative assistant for NDSU Extension was discussed. Chirumamilla requested that she continue to receive ½ of the temporary pay while helping to train Henry. Stanley Dick made a motion to continue to pay the administrative assistant $210/month temporary pay for up to 40 hours per week through the end of 2020, seconded by Greg Goodman, motion carried. Chirumamilla also asked the commissioners for reimbursement for her cell phone. Later in the meeting Greg Goodman made a motion to reimburse Chirumamilla $30/ month for her cell phone, seconded

by Austin Lafrenz, motion carried.

Austin Lafrenz made a motion to appoint Sina Lawson as commission rep on the Cavalier County Library Board, seconded by Stanley Dick, motion carried.

Purse Update: No, the original lost items have not been recovered, but some good things have happened as a result of the search. When the bank orders you new checks they come faster-- a thought to keep in mind for readers who might find themselves in the same position.

Second, my attempts to find an address for the motor vehicle people or to get an answer to phone calls resulted in lots of extra long distance charges for next month’s phone bill but no contact with a living person at the other end of the line. After hours of elevator music I did get a recording that “all our lines are busy---please try your call another day”. They also gave a website to consult. Not having a computer hook-up, I went to the library to find out if they had a phone book for Bismarck with a possible mailing address. The librarian found the website and a form that had to be sent in online. It was helpful that there was a listing right at the top to mark “Lost”. By page 3 we learned you also need a credit card number as they do not take cash or checks. I had parted ways with credit cards accumulated over the years which were not accepted in North Dakota back when we were

Cavalier County Republican

working on centennial books (not a paying job for most of us) and had adopted a chargeless lifestyle in the years that followed. A friend typed in her number, and the replacement license arrived in three days. When the correct birthday rolls around, it will still have to be renewed and by then offices may be open and phones answered. Keys and other lost items are still on the search list.

A Team to Remember A few weeks ago there was a radio picture from a century ago, and in that same envelope was a football picture marked 1910 or 1911. I had set it aside for a later offering to Dennis Throndset for his long ago sports or to Jake Kulland in the fall. Dennis is semi-retired, and as I studied the picture Jake was telling about having joined the walking wounded. Knowing both of them were too young to remember the players mentioned or to have heard their stories, using it for Langdon Long Ago was a good alternative .

The writing around the edges of the picture named all but one of the teammates and was a reminder that similar pictures had come from the late Stewart Robertson for possible use in the Langdon centennial book 35 years ago. Stewart had grown up in Langdon, played football himself, and while his childhood goal was to become a circus clown, he actually went on to Macalster College and became a long-time Presbyterian pastor. In semi-retirement he also began writing books, some of which I might have purchased

Langdon Long Ago

and others that came as gifts. The gift books were primarily the jokes he told from the pulpit or on other occasions and often included stories of Langdon characters. Since researching the clipping files at the library is not recommended during times of lockdown, his books turned out to have enough hilarious sketches to be entertaining research.

While the writing on the picture says this is the team of 1910-1911, I believe it is a later picture primar-

Thank You Long Term Care Community!

Sometimes adversity brings out the best in us. And sometimes people do the right thing, just because they believe in what they’re doing.

That’s how it was when COVID-19 hit North Dakota. Many unsung heroes stepped up to the plate – including the dedicated men and women who staff the 218 long-term care facilities in our state.

More than 16,000 staff members responded to the hardships and pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic by providing tireless, compassionate care.

If there is a bright spot in this pandemic – a silver lining, one could say – it is the resourcefulness demonstrated by these remarkable people.

To honor them, Gov. Doug Burgum and the North Dakota Long Term Care Association have designated Tuesday, June 23, as Silver Linings Day in our state. Please join us in saying “Thank you!” to our long term care community for going above and beyond during these challenging times.

ily because the school that burned in February of 1911 was a wooden building, and the school behind the team is built of bricks. My guess is that the picture was taken in very late 1911 or 1912 and possibly not during the fall season. Players listed by name beginning with the back row are: John Robertson, Ed Donovan, Fred Koehmstedt, Tom Lindsay, an unknown with more information later, and Bert Foy. In the seated row are Dick Boyd, Al Rob-

ertson, Al Drury and Jack Halloran.

Lying in front is the first football coach at Langdon, Daniel Ridlington.

Now their stories: Dan Ridlington came to Langdon to teach around the time the first classes graduated at Langdon possibly 1903 or 1904. I do not know if he played on the UND Football squad which included Usher L. Burdick and several others who went on to become politicians and governors of our state, but besides football he also introduced track to LHS students. While here, he had been principal at the school. His wife, formerly Vivian Allert from the class of 1905, had been one of his students. In the fall of 1912 the Ridlingtons were on a trip to South Dakota when Dan became ill and died. His wife later married another classmate, M. C. Mitchell, and settled in California.

Now the stories of the players: John and Alexander Robertson were two of Stewart’s older brothers. John, from the class of 1914, was the youngest on this team.

Alexander, from the class of 1912, went on to become a dentist in Minneapolis. Both brothers served in World War I and were injured in a battle in France with Alex recovering and John listed as missing and then dead. When war records were later released, they learned the two brothers had been injured in the same battle and been in the same hospital---but never saw each other while in France.

Edward J. Donovan, class of 1913, was in the war as well and then attended college in Washington, D.C. He became a lawyer and returned to Langdon for a long career practicing law and married a pretty young lady who taught music and wrote poetry. His wife, Kathryn, was Langdon’s librarian for many years. Ed became Lang2017 chevy k2500 crew LTZ, Black, 6.0 V8, Z71

don postmaster in the early 1940s.

Children and grandchildren graduated from LHS. Fred Koehmstedt, class of 1912, was the son of Andy Koehmstedt who owned and published the Courier-Democrat at Langdon for many years with help from several of his children. Relatives sent Fred’s address as South Pasadena in 1976.

Tom Lindsay, class of 1912, was a brother of Ed Lindsay and in later years lived in Portland, Oregon.

The unknown player may also have been a member of this class or one of several who did not finish high school at Langdon.

Names suggested were John McGruer, one of the Sullivan brothers, Howard (Scotty) McNiven, possibly a McGauvran brother before that family moved to Washington, Joe Halloran (another nephew of Dr. Donovan), or one of the O’Briens who finished at Catholic schools.

Bert Foy was one of several brothers in this family. A younger brother graduated in 1916, and another died in World War I and is buried at Langdon.

Dick Boyd was thought to be the most famous of this group since he won honors in 1911 when Langdon’s track team won at State. However, most of the boys on this team also participated in track. Boyd did go on to participate in national track events in Chicago which may have been high school or college level.

Dick Boyd died in 1935. His daughters have visited Langdon in more recent years.

Al Drury was not listed in LHS graduates, but we know he lived on a farm near town, and at one time his father was a sheriff. It appears the county must have had a car for the sheriff who did not drive so his son was hired to take him to various emergencies. After a time in the Army, Al returned to Langdon and married Frances Mausten. Al ran a garage for many years, and during World War II they moved to California where he died.

Jack Halloran, known as John when he graduated, was one of several members of the Donovan family who came to Langdon to attend high school and lived with Dr. Donovan and his family. He had been president of his graduating class and in later years lived in San Francisco. He was also a member of the winning track team of 1911. I could find no information on why there were only ten players pictured so do not know if they played under 9-man rules or not.

LHS did have track and football during the war years, and I did not find information on who the coach was after the untimely death of Dan Ridlington. However, a younger Robertson brother, Art, class of 1918, was apparently a star player to the extent that he went on to serve as quarterback for the UND team for all four years--education which gave him the reputation of having an “educated toe”. He returned to teach and coach at Langdon before a long career in the Navy.
