Farming is a way of life in Cavalier County, and the family farm is a sacred endeavor.

Across the state, one thing many of the farming communities have in common is the Farmers Union Co-op offering gas and other services to travelers and locals alike. Another service that the North Dakota Farmers Union (NDFU) offers is the teaching and advancement of North Dakota youth in learning leadership skills.

The 83rd Annual National Farmers Union (NFU) All-States Leadership Camp in Bailey, Colorado, was held in June. The event encourages young adults to explore their leadership potential, discuss current events and important issues, learn more about the power of cooperatives, and identify ways to cause positive change in their communities.

“Farmers Union is based on 3 primary pillars: education, cooperation and legislation. We have a very unique camp and youth program because we teach extensively about the cooperative business model and incorporate our own camperrun co-op store at camp,” Brie Sorensen, education director at North Dakota Farmers Union, said. ”At camp we use unplugged education in a fun environment. We teach about other things such as legislative issues and community. All of

our education is based around our AFNR Ag STEM curriculum.”

NDFU teaches kids from kindergarten through 12th grade about topics ranging from citizenship and farm-to-table to biodiversity and human impact.

The organization also ties in ag careers and educates youth on

past June.

“It’s a great organization to be a part of. They do their policy, and you get to meet new people and talk with different farmers across the state,” Iverson said.

Iverson’s mother, Carissa, added how much she really en-

Kram named National FCCLA Educated Adviser North Dakota student organizations don’t often gain recognition at the national level.

The advisers for these groups receiving recognition is even rarer. The small FCCLA chapter of Langdon Area High School recently attended the national FCCLA convention where their advisor, Amy Kram, received the FCCLA Educated Adviser Award.

FCCLA stands for Family, Career and Community Leaders of America and the Educated Adviser Award recognizes the accomplishments of a current chapter adviser of FCCLA who has gone above and beyond in their professional development activities and participation throughout the school year.

“The mission of FCCLA is to promote personal growth and leadership development through Family and Consumer Sciences education,” the organization states. ”Focusing on the multiple roles of family member, wage earner, and community leader, members develop skills for life through character development, creative and critical thinking, interpersonal communication, practical knowledge, and career preparation.”

The Educated Adviser Award is a brand new adviser award,

so when Kram learned she had been nominated by Janelle Wiedrich, ND State FCCLA advisor, she had to do some research on it .

“I was very honored about being nominated and, quite honestly, shocked when I received notification that I was

being honored as only four awards were given out in the United States,” Kram said.

tion with the family as its central focus. Kram explained that FCCLA empowers members to make a difference in their families, careers and communities while developing their leadership skills.

“We put an emphasis on developing skills for life - creative and critical thinking, interpersonal communication, character development, and career preparation,” Kram explained.

Kram has been an FCCLA adviser for a total of 19 years. As part of being a teacher she also has to complete professional development. As part of that, Kram has made many of her required hours beneficial to her duties as an FCCLA adviser and FACs instructor. Over the past year, Kram has dedicated 42 of her over 100 total hours of professional development to specific FCCLA cornerstones and improving her abilities as an adviser.

organization by running for a position on the National Youth Advisory Council (NYAC) along with 16 others. The decision to run was made after the first few days of the All-States camp. After stepping forward as a candidate, Iverson spoke to his peers on why he felt he should be elected. When the results were tallied, Iverson was one of the six campers selected.

“It was a pretty big confidence booster,” he said.

Learning her son had been selected to the NYAC came as little surprise to Carissa. She explained that Marcus has always been a very outgoing child and going to the camps has helped focus his abilities with leadership skills and cooperative skills.

“He comes back exhausted, to be honest, from camps and usually sleeps which never happens as he usually has endless amounts of energy and enthusiasm,” Carissa shared.

This endless energy helped Iverson earn the award trip to the National Farmers Union AllStates Leadership Camp in the first place. In order to earn this award, he had to have completed at least four years of youth work in his county and attended at least two Farmers Union Senior Camps. Marcus has been attending county youth education classes and camp for the past 8 years. All-States is a yearly camp put on by National Farmers Union, and the kids can only attend once as a camper.

Langdon Area School Board discusses building improvements The Langdon Area School District board meeting covered the typical items of business for their July meeting. It was the subcommittee meeting for those in charge of the building and maintenance that gained the most attention, however.

The residents that fall within the Langdon Area School District(LASD) will be asked to vote in favor of a mill increase that would allow the school district to update the learning environment and security of both the elementary and high school buildings. Both issues have been on the minds of the board for years with greater urgency as time has gone on. The total cost of the project is slated to come in around the $5 million mark with the district needing to pay off the loan in 15 years.

To do this, the board and administration are asking voters of the district to approve a 12 mill increase, giving the school the ability to increase their mill levy to a total of 15 for the building fund. The school already receives 3 mills for general building maintenance that they would like to continue receiving, above the 12 mill increase, to cover other general maintenance that occurs each year. The vote will take place on October 1, 2019, at the Langdon Area Elementary School (LAES) as a special election. With this project, CTS Group is guaranteeing the district $1 million in savings over the fifteen year period with more energy efficiency and modern heating and cooling systems.

The current heating system in the elementary school is over 50 years old and according to Chris Olson, “is on its last leg”.

The meeting that took place on Monday, July 15 had CTS Group's Mark Bucholz, senior account executive, explaining to the newly-formed steering committee the importance of

why these updates need to take place and what updates will be done along with the resulting benefits to student learning and the overall learning environment. The steering committee is currently composed of Dennis Throndset, Kim Hart, Nick Moser, Liz Sillers, Dawn Roppel, Chris Olson, Steve Olson, and Dawn Kruk.

“We can significantly update the facilities and really, from a structural standpoint, the buildings are in great shape, and it’s just looking at what we can do to revitalize and improve the learning environment," stated Bucholz.

The high school is all electric heating while the elementary school is natural gas with a gasfired boiler that serves all the rooms through a tunnel system.

The tunnel system builds up quite a bit of moisture, which in turn is sent to the classrooms.

“The concern is with air quality; if that stuff dries up and you start blowing it around, you are potentially going to end up with some sick kids,” Bucholz said.

Temperature control in the elementary is also a major issue.

Throughout both schools, lighting was discussed as various different types of lighting are used.

This means a variety of replacement parts are needed increasing costs. The project will have parts of the electrical systems within the schools addressed as they were not designed to handle the level of technology use that occurs today.

“We just really want to bring the quality of the services up to standards to enable you to have a long-term plan,” Bucholz explained.

Part of the presentation included improving the quality of the learning environment by reducing the noise level and improving the quality of light.

Currently the ventilation system

is noisy, and the lighting also creates a humming noise and in some rooms has flickering issues.

Bucholz explained that when there are deficiencies within a classroom relating to temperature, noise and light levels, every child is not provided an equal opportunity in the classroom.

“The learning environment can definitely play a factor, especially with kids that are extremely sensitive,” Bucholz said.

In total the project taking place at the elementary school is estimated to cost $3,925,000 while the high school budget updates will be $1,238,000.

The district will also be pursuing grants to try and defray costs. Should the vote pass for the request for additional mills, the school board will convene quickly to levy the mills in order to make the next tax year. The contracting will occur over the winter with construction beginning within a week of school being released in May 2020.

During the regular meeting, the board handled regular business for the month of July including the swearing in of the newly elected and reelected board members. The board also heard from the administrators.

LASD Superintendent Darren Christianson informed the board that the school has not yet found a counselor for the upcoming school year. Christianson explained that the school does have the option of hiring a long-term sub to fill in the position until a qualified candidate can be hired.

LAES principal Todd Hetler informed the board on the upcoming summer school program that will begin August 5 at the LAES. The program is covered by the 21st Century grant that has been awarded as a result of LAES now being Title I certified school-wide.

Melissa’s Musings

By Melissa Anderson The importance of self-care I recently read an article about motherhood. Within the article, the writer shared how research has indicated that mothers carry the majority of not only the physical aspects of caring for a home but also the emotional.

This was no news to me as I am sure other mothers across the readership of this paper will concur. It’s tough being the amazing women that we have enlisted ourselves to be. Motherhood is, by far, the most difficult occupation in the history of the world.

Which brings me to my musings for the week... To say I’m a little stressed is very much an understatement. Between the professional and the private, I have a near-constant headache from clenching my jaw- something I should probably figure out a way to stop or at least alleviate.

Self-care is one of those new phrases that has come about as people realize they need to take better care of themselves- mentally, physically and emotionally. This really isn’t a new a idea, but the moniker is. Self-care is taking the time out of a day, week, or month to focus on one’s self. Easy in theory, but hard to implement for many. The hectic pace of summer has left me with little time to even think about selfcare let alone actually taking that precious time.

It can be anything that focuses on you, from working out to reading to just taking a break from everything and disconnecting from the world

at large. Self-care is an important tool in the tool box that is a healthy lifestyle.

There are so many ways that a person can do self-care. I say person rather than mother because selfcare is really something that everyone should be doing. Teens, adults, seniors, and even kids can benefit from self-care activities.

The primary focus of self-care is not only gaining some “me-time” but also reducing the stress levels of everyday life. The benefit to this is that by actively engaging in something that reduces stress, you will be better able to handle said stress.

Taking that me-time doesn’t mean you need to spend a lot of money on yourself. For me, selfcare is also giving myself that leeway to spend some of that hardearned money on myself. Instead of constantly worrying about the bills or making sure my kids and household has what it needs, I get myself a little indulgence. The most recent was a quick manicure from a very talented nail technician.

Other indulgences in doing something for yourself could be getting that particular pizza topping combo that nobody else in your house likes. I highly recommend trying jalapenos, bacon, and pineapple on a thin crust. This combo is amazing as it brings together a powerhouse of flavor that is sweet, salty, and spicy. Yes, pineapple does go on pizza.

Mental and emotional health are often overlooked when people consider their health overall. It’s something that needs to change, and luckily, there is a surge in healthcare to focus more on that aspect of wellbeing. So take the time to do something for you.

Upside Down Under

By Marvin Baker

The impressive rise of hockey...

When it comes to sports, North Dakota has recently had some success with players getting into the NFL and others breaking into Major League Baseball. But this state has had supremacy in hockey since UND won its first national collegiate championship in 1959.

For all these years, UND has been the holy grail of hockey in North Dakota, but that’s beginning to change, or should I say, it’s becoming a complement. Just think about some of the groundbreaking efforts that have taken place in North Dakota hockey in just the past 20 years.

High school hockey The state had a string of teams from the larger cities until Hazen became sanctioned by the North Dakota High School Activities Association. About the same time, St. Mary’s High School in Bismarck dropped its hockey program. A few years later, Park River merged with Grafton, and the entire sport kind of stagnated across the state.

Suddenly, teams in Mandan, Dickinson and Williston emerged, then Fargo Davies and West Fargo Sheyenne. Both east and west teams are now very competitive, and don’t be surprised if we see Bismarck Legacy, Watford City and Mayville-Portland joining the high school ranks.

Former NHL players When we think about former NHL players who have become

reer in hockey as well. He is currently the head coach at Grand Forks Central and was a four-year player with UND. He started out in his hometown of North Battleford, Saskatchewan, and after a year with the Milwaukee Admirals, returned to Grand Forks to coach the Central Knights.

There’s also Dean Blais, a native of International Falls, Minn., who coached at UND for 10 years, winning two national championships in 1997 and 2000. Blais compiled an impressive 262-115-39 record. He went on to become associate coach with the Columbus Blue Jackets and later coached at Nebraska-Omaha and Team USA. Serge Gambucci was also affiliated with Grand Forks Central for many years. After growing up in Eveleth, Minn., Gambucci coached high school hockey in Crookston, Minn., until 1955 when he came to Grand Forks. He spent 15 years as head coach of Grand Forks Central, winning 10 state championships.

When he left high school hockey, he became a professional scout at UND games.

Girls hockey From zero to 11 teams in just a few years, the girls program in the state was inspired by UND’s women’s program.

Monique and her twin sister, Jocelyne Lamoureux, grew up in Grand Forks, played high school hockey there and went on to be major players with Team USA in the Olympics.

All these people have inspired a lot of kids to take part in hockey and make it a successful sport.

coaches, the first name that comes to mind is Mike Peluso. He singlehandedly built Bismarck High School into a powerhouse in North Dakota high school hockey with domination in the west for many years.

Marty Murray is the head coach of the Minot Minotauros, a team that struggled for years but has gained a lot of fan support and is now a winning team. Murray played 261 games in the NHL with the Calgary Flames, Philadelphia Flyers, Carolina Hurricanes, and the Los Angeles Kings. Ironically, he grew up just 70 miles north of Minot in Lyleton, Manitoba, and played four seasons with the Brandon Wheat Kings.

Famous coaches In addition to Peluso, there have been four very successful coaches who have either lived in North Dakota or came here to coach. Perhaps the most successful is Gino Gasparini from UND. He spent 16 seasons with the Fighting Sioux, winning three national championships in 1979, 1982 and 1987. Gasparini also played for UND in the mid 1960s.

A native of Fort Frances, Ontario, Gasparini found his calling at the University of North Dakota.

Dear Editor: Apparently the ND Congressional Delegation has joined the '….change the name or tear it down' crowd with their proposal to change the name of Sully Hill National Game Preserve to White Horse Hill. It's disappointing to see our congressional delegation wasting time on this just before they leave for their six week annual vacation from work (did you know this vacation first started in the early days of Washington because of the hot, sticky weather conditions? Apparently installing air conditioning in the halls of Congress in 1929 did not alleviate the problem!).

Does North Dakota need to join the movement removing historical statues, renaming buildings, and tearing down crosses to “keep up with the Jones”?

There are more critical issues our Congressional Delegation should be addressing including: immigration, health care, budget deficit, trade wars affecting ND agricultural products, and even the issue of air ambulance overcharging (Herald 6/16/19).

What are the costs involved with this proposed name change, a lot of signs, etc. will have to be updated,

there will have to be signage 'explaining' what the name was from 1904 until 2019 and why it had to be changed, the beautiful Elk gracing the entrance to the Preserve will certainly have to be replaced with a 'white horse'. It won't be cheap, but suppose we can borrow the money from China.

As of July 18 the Herald poll on the name change shows 67% opposing the change and 33% supporting it.

Some readers will agree with me, others will not, I urge each of you to contact our ND Congressional delegation and let them know how you feel.. I have already done this, we can't complain if they do something that no one objects to, will you take the time to express your feelings?

To my initial comment about their upcoming six week 'vacation', maybe taxpayers should demand time clocks be installed in the House and Senate so our representatives will have to check in and show just how many hours they actually do work, whether on important things (immigration) or petty things (changing the name of Sullys Hill) Mike Connor Devils Lake, ND

Farm/ranch succession coordinator training set More than 70 percent of U.S. farms are set to transition from one generation to another and 400 million-plus acres of farmland are expected to change hands during the next 15 years.

The families behind these farms will need professionals to help them make the transition. North Dakota State University Extension is training professionals to help these families.

“Due to the success of the Farm Succession Coordinator programs in North Dakota in 2015 and 2016, NDSU Extension is hosting another training,” says Crystal Schaunaman, an Extension agent in McIntosh County and one of the event’s coordinators.

The training program will be held Aug. 19-21 at the McGovern Alumni Center on the NDSU campus in Fargo.

This training is offered specifically for agricultural professionals, service providers and organizational leaders who work with farmers and ranchers (owner and successor generations) on farm succession issues. These include attorneys, estate planners, accountants, tax planners, agricultural lenders, adult farm management instructors, financial advisers, retirement planners and anyone who will be working with farmers and ranchers as they transfer their business to the next generation.

“We are at a pivotal period in American agriculture,” says Ashley Ueckert, an Extension agent from Golden Valley County who is helping coordinate the training. “The economic future of our nation’s agriculture depends on next-generation farmers’ and ranchers’ ability to access land and agricultural enterprise.”

John Baker, an attorney with decades of experience with succession planning, and Joy Kirkpatrick, a farm succession specialist with the University of Wisconsin’s Center Farm Succession Coordinator programs, developed the training curriculum.

Kirkpatrick, who has spent the last 25 years developing farm succession educational programs and working with farms and families on succession planning, and Kiley Fleming, the executive director of the Iowa Mediation Service, will

be the instructors for NDSU Extension’s Farm Succession Coordinator program. Fleming has experience in human resources in addition to facilitation and mediation.

“Many farm and ranch operators are realizing the importance of creating a succession plan and the value of a skilled facilitator to lead the process of exploring options, coordinating communication and conflict management,” Schaunaman says.

NDSU Extension is partnering to offer the Farm Succession Coordinator program as a next step to its Design Your Succession Plan educational programming, which is being held throughout North Dakota for farm families to get started on succession plans.

“As I work with farm and ranch families to get started with succession plans through our Design Your Succession Plan program, I often am asked who they can turn to for help in finishing the process,” Ueckert says. “By hosting this training again, NDSU Extension is expanding the network of professionals who will be trained to assist the families as they work through issues and conflicts while still providing the services they traditionally would.”

Participants will be designated as certified succession coordinators when they complete the Farm Succession Coordinator training and individually work through recommendations for a farm family as part of a case study that will be assigned following the course. NDSU Extension maintains a list of professionals with the certification and will share the list with farm and ranch families across the state.

“Expanding the number of professionals in North Dakota who are available to assist farmers and ranchers to develop a succession plan for their business is one important piece of helping to assure a strong ag economy in the future,” Schaunaman says.

The early bird registration fee for the training is $900 if paid by July 19. After that, the fee is $975 if paid

by Aug. 9. The training is limited to the first 30 professionals who register.

Farmers encouraged to take survey on possible Dicamba damage The North Dakota Department of Agriculture (NDDA) is gathering information on plant damage that may have been caused by the in-crop use of the herbicide Dicamba on soybeans. “Although we’ve haven’t had any formal Dicambarelated complaints this year, we are launching the survey to collect data about any possible damage,” Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring said. “We will compare the data with previous years to look for trends and help determine whether existing regulations are working or not.” July 10 was the last date that Dicamba applications could be made in the state this year. The survey may be found at www.nd.gov/ ndda/dicamba-survey.

Information gathered from the survey is anonymous, will not be used for pesticide enforcement against applicators and no penalties will be issued based on it.

Those wishing to file a formal pesticide complaint should go to www. nd.gov/ndda/complaint.

Goehring encouraged those with damage to follow up with the chemical representative for the product that was used, if known.

Project Safe Send - Get rid of unusable pesticides!

Farmers, ranchers, pesticide dealers and applicators, government agencies and homeowners with unusable pesticides can bring them to any of the Project Safe Send Sites listed below. Project Safe Send is a safe, simple and non-regulatory program that helps people safely and legally get rid of unusable pesticides free of charge. Since 1992, more than 10,000 people have brought in over 4.7 million pounds of pesticides to Project Safe Send.

The program accepts old, unusable or banned pesticides, in-

rectly to ask if they’ve received any complaints about a certain business.

It doesn’t hurt to follow these general rules to avoid an unethical asphalt company: • Be wary of paving companies stating they are “in the neighborhood” and have extra asphalt at the ready to repair your driveway for a minimal cost. Professional asphalt contractors know, with great accuracy, how much paving material is needed to complete a project. They will rarely have leftover materials.

• Never hire someone on the spot. Trustworthy contractors provide a written estimate that will be valid for many days. If you feel that you are being subjected to highpressure sales tactics, BBB advises you to end the conversation and tell the company you’re not interested.

• If the quoted price seems very low, chances are the quality of work will be quite low.

• Get at least two estimates before hiring anyone.

• Don’t pay with cash. Credit cards are always best as there are options for recovering your lost funds.

Consumers are often safer dealing with a contractor who has local roots. Contact BBB for free Business Profiles on any company you are considering doing business with by visiting bbb.org, or by calling – tollfree in Minnesota and North Dakota – 1-800-646-6222.

If you have been scammed, you can help other consumers avoid the same problems by reporting your experience to BBB’s Scam Tracker at bbb.org/scamtracker.

Don’t get rolled over by shady paving companies, BBB warns Better Business Bureau® of Minnesota and North Dakota is warning consumers of a seasonal scam that tends to pop up in warmer months – asphalt paving schemes.

These suspect asphalt companies often place ads or go door-to-door claiming to have extra asphalt from a nearby project, allowing them to give you a discounted rate. Unfortunately, these jobs usually end in sub-par work that costs much more than originally quoted.

A woman from Grand Rapids, Minn., lost $50,000 to one of these sub-par asphalt companies. The company first advertised in a local newspaper, calling themselves Convenient Paving, but the following year, a company with the same phone number advertised as Convenience Driveways. The woman contacted the company for a quote and was told they had extra materials and could do the job right away.

Despite the driveway having a three-year warranty, the woman reported to BBB that grass was growing through the asphalt within two weeks of the job being done. After following up with the company, a representative agreed the driveway needed to be fixed and said he would be in contact to schedule a day and time. The woman followed up with several phone calls but never heard from the company again, she told BBB. “I told him I paid him too much and that this was not acceptable,” she said. “I questioned their credibility and other issues.”

To avoid being tricked by asphalt schemes, always know whom you’re dealing with and research the company at bbb.org. You can always ask the salesperson if they have a solicitor’s license from the city in which they’re doing business, or you can call your city officials di-

God’s Power Displayed Romans 1:16-17 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

The Apostle Paul knows where the power of God is displayed. He speaks of the power of God in creation. He speaks of the power of God in judgment. But, he most often speaks of the power of God in salvation. How is God’s power displayed in salvation?

Well, it took the eternal Son of God to leave His throne in heaven, take upon flesh, and take the form of a servant to obtain salvation for His people. It took the Son of God in human form to keep perfectly the covenant between man and God, which states obey and live or disobey and die. It took the Son of God to bear the wrath of God on the cross for all the sins of every person who would ever look to the Messiah for their salvation. It took the Son of God to defeat death for His people and conquer the grave by rising on the third day. All of this is a marvelous display of the power of God. Additionally, it is a majestic display of God’s power that we see in the conversion of a soul. Jesus told Nicodemus that unless you are born again you cannot enter the Kingdom of God. The New Covenant that God declared He would put into action through His Son Jesus spoke of hearts of stone being replaced with hearts of flesh. This was the promise of a people of God who would no longer be at enmity with Him and desire to rebel against Him. Rather, these new covenant people would love God, love what God loves, and seek to live that love out every day for the glory and honor of their newly acknowledged King.

With our physical eyes, we may

see very little of the miraculous work in the salvation of a soul. But, the Bible says that it is so miraculous that the angels in heaven throw a party every time it happens. It is so miraculous that angels peer in to see and investigate this magnificent event.

What we cannot fully see or comprehend is what is happening to the inner man. The spiritual life, the spiritual maturity that is taking place in that person where thoughts are being transformed an renewed.

This is all done by the power of God through the understanding of God’s Word that is used by the Holy Spirit in renewing the inner man day by day (2 Corinthians 4:16). It is an absolute miracle that the whole of the person’s inner being is made anew in the conversion of a soul. Paul says in 2 Corinthians 5:17, Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

But, what we do see in the conversion of a soul is how that converted person believes things that they once held as worthless.

Many times, we see a person living a completely different lifestyle than they did before conversion. They no longer desire to do the things they used to do habitually. Everything that we can and do recognize as different in a converted person is worthy of awe.

This change happens in every person who truly trusts in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation. So much so, that Paul says in verse seventeen above that a Christian’s life can now be described as a life that is lived by faith in God, forevermore.

The gospel and saving work of God is an awesome display of the power of God. This should cause us to be in awe of the Lord’s loving power towards mankind.

Langdon community hosted a blood drive with Vitalant, formerly United Blood Services, on June 24 at Cavalier County Memorial Hospital which helped collect a total of 32 units of blood products for patients in need.

A total of 35 individuals volunteered to donate blood and 28 individuals were able to donate at the Vitalant blood drive on June 24. A total of four donors also came forward to donate Power Red Cells (2RBC) which collects two units of red blood cells while returning platelets, plasma and a saline solution back to the donor. There were five people who volunteered for the first time.

Vitalant expressed their gratitude to Billie Symons, who coordinated the drive, and Cavalier County Memorial Hospital which sponsored the blood drive, as well as many staff from the hospital who assisted with recruiting, setup, refreshments and registration.

Vitalant strives to keep a 5-day supply of every blood type on the shelf at all times to be able to meet the needs of patients across the region. Donations from O-negative donors, the universal blood type,

are especially important this time of year due to increased accidents and trauma cases.

Vitalant is the only blood provider to nearly 70 hospitals across the region. The blood supply is dependent on selfless donations from volunteer donors to ensure the lifesaving needs of the region are met.

About 30 percent of Vitalant’s blood supply goes to cancer patients across the region and one in seven people entering the hospital will need blood. Those relying on blood in the region receive that lifesaving blood from Vitalant.

Donors can make a convenient appointment to give blood at www.bloodhero.com or by calling 877-25-VITAL. With each donation, donors receive a free total cholesterol test and earn points in Vitalant’s donor rewards program. The next blood drive at this location is planned to be held on: August 21, 2019.

Blood donation takes about an hour from check-in to refreshments.

Donors can save about 20 minutes by completing their Health History Questionnaire the day they donate on www.vitalant.org.

Cavalier County Republican Sarah Overby Financial Representative for Thrivent Financial Young families: The cost vs. protection challenge Finding the right balance of protection and affordability is critical Being young and starting a family is an exciting time - full of opportunity and anticipation. Unfortunately, young families are often the most vulnerable to life’s uncertainties. While many are in their peak earning years, they need to be prepared for potential unknowns.

Ensuring proper protection is important when designing a financial strategy to meet the needs of young families. While each financial strategy will be different, there are a few considerations every family should think about.

Life insurance and disability income insurance can be the foundation of a healthy financial strategy.

A few companies are working to develop new offerings that allow new generations to access and leverage solutions more tailored to their lifestyles, incomes and families. Thrivent Financial recently launched a new Universal Life Insurance product that combines the affordability of term insurance with the premium flexibility and potential cash value

Monday, July 22, 2019 – Page 7

Financial Corner with Sarah growth of permanent insurance.

This gives young parents the option of purchasing a lifetime of coverage at a beginning price point that is generally very competitive with term insurance options. This permanent coverage has the potential to build cash value accumulation that can be used for other things, including an emergency savings fund.

Disability income insurance is another solution to consider so families are protecting their paychecks and future goals. New innovations offer options including “stay-at-home-spouse” benefits, allowing couples who have one person working inside the home to stay protected. This type of coverage can protect the invaluable contributions of stay-at-home spouses if they are ever in a situation where they areunable to work in the home.

Innovation and financial services aren’t frequently used in the same sentence. However, with the unique challenges and opportunities faced by young families, new options are appearing in the marketplace that are customized to meet the needs of a new generation.

Thrivent Financial is represented in the Langdon area by Financial Representative Sarah Overby at 716 3rd St, Langdon, (701) 256-2932.

Add immunizations to your back-to-school to-do list 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.

North Dakota state law requires students in grades kindergarten through 12 to meet a minimum number of required immunizations before they attend school. The NDDoH is encouraging parents to get their children vaccinated now, rather than waiting until right before school starts.

“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 Jenny Galbraith, epidemiologist with the NDDoH. “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 on the NDDoH website.

Cost should not be a barrier for 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 Program (VFC). Contact 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 by being up to date on their immunizations or having 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 701-328-2335, or visit our website at www.ndhealth.gov/immunize.

The Cavalier County Public Health office will be offering immunizations on a drop in basis August 12 and August 23 or by appointment.

Frost Fire Park, Walhalla, ENCORE Youth Arts Camp is less than three weeks away. Registration deadline closes Monday, July 29 for the camp that is being held Monday, August 5 to Friday August 9.

The day camp is available to all students going into Grade 3 through Grade 12. Campers will be divided up into two groups: grades 3-6 and grades 7-12. Each group will have the opportunity to participate in both visual and performing arts activities.

Brush with the Bunch

I haven‘t been successful getting a picture of our Brush Bunch float while it was moving along in the parade so I will have to make do with a pre-parade picture. Shown is Laurel and Liann holding up the partially painted flag, which still needs the stars, that donned our float.

Painters were Carol, Leona, Sylvia, Frankie and Laurel. The beautiful flag was drawn by Laurel, hubby Paul cut out the plywood, provided

by Harry, Paul made the flag pole and mounted the flag to the trailer.

Sylvia, Leona, Frankie, Carolyn and Laurel put the float together at the hangar in the airport complex, which was pulled by Leona driving son Tim‘s pickup with Mary Ellen and Frankie riding, “painting on the flag“ and throwing candy. I am sorry, but I missed our float as it went by and am in need of a picture of our Brush Bunch float for July 4th (6th) if you could send me one or drop off at the Gorge Gallery on a Tuesday or any forenoon during the week. I would appreciate it very much. I hope to cover the parade next week. Random thoughts, “Have a awesome day and know that someone has thought about you today!“ God Bless and have a great week.

Post 98 Red Sox continue to roll with three league wins

Cavalier County Republican

The Langdon Red Sox Post 98 American Legion Baseball team looked to continue their winning ways when they the home stretch of their regular season schedule. The Red Sox delivered with four wins, beating Park River 2-1 on July 12, sweeping a home double header versus Larimore 3-2 and 10-0, then winning a non-conference game against Nelson County. After the last run of games, Langdon has now evened their record at 10-10 on the season, and 5-5 in District 5 games.

They played their last regular season game of the year at MidwayMinto on July 19, then will enter the 2019 District 5 American Legion Baseball Tournament to be held in Hatton July 23-27. The bracket was not set for the tourney at press time.

Here is a recap of the Red Sox last four games and wins: Langdon 2, Park River 1 The Red Sox began their four game run at Park River on July 12.

It was a pitchers duel all the way, as Simon Romfo took the mound for Langdon and was stellar the whole game, striking out 10 batters compared to just one walk to get the complete game win.

Langdon scored a run in the third when Romfo doubled to score Jackson Delvo, who led off the inning with a base hit. The Red Sox scored the eventual winning run in the top of the seventh when Hayes Haslekaas, who had two hits in the game, singled to bring home Ethan Sampson.

Romfo struck out Nathan Zavalney looking to end the game in the bottom of the seventh.

BOXSCORE

Langdon 3-10, Larimore 2-0 The Red Sox played their first home game since the latter part of June when they entertained Larimore in a league double header on July 15.

In game one it turned out to be a pitchers duel between Grant Romfo and Allen Farrell. The Red Sox got all the runs they needed the first three innings. Hayes Haslekaas singled to score Grant Romfo in the first inning, then Simon Romfo had a base hit in the third to scored Grant Romfo and Jackson Delvo.

Larimore got close with two runs in the sixth inning, but Ethan Sampson came on in relief of Grant Romfo in the seventh to lock down the win and get a save. Grant Romfo struck out nine batters to get the win, while Delvo had two hits to lead the offense.

In game two, Langdon blew the game open with seven runs in the fifth inning to win going away. The Red Sox put up three runs in the first on a bases clearing triple by Cooper Zimmer. The big fifth inning was highlighted by Jack Romfo hitting the first home run of his Legion Baseball career, plus Simon Romfo hitting a two run triple and Sampson bringing two more runs on a base hit.

Sampson pitched the whole way and got a five inning win.

Langdon 10, Nelson County 0 It was another pitchers duel for five inning when the Red Sox hosted Nelson County. Simon Romfo and Jake Avdem matched each other pitch for pitch, with the Red Sox scratching out an unearned run in the third, then plated two more in the fifth on a double from Ethan Sampson and a sacrifice fly by Simon Romfo.

BOXSCORE

LANGDON 3-10, LARIMORE 2-0 Game One LAR -- 000 002 0 -- 2 3 0 LAN -- 102 000 0 -- 3 5 0 WP -- Grant Romfo; LP -- Allen Farrell; S -- Ethan Sampson Highlights -- LAN: Jackson Delvo 2x3 2B, Simon Romfo 1x2 2 RBIs Game Two LAN -- 300 07 -- 10 8 0 LAR -- 000 00 -- 0 2 0 WP -- Ethan Sampson; LP -Tucker Salander Highlights -- LEM: Jack Romfo 1x3 HR 2 RBIs, Cooper Zimmer 1x2 3B 3 RBIs, Simon Romfo 2x4 3B 2 RBIs Avdem reached his pitch limit after five innings and came off the mound, and the Red Sox took advantage, scoring seven runs on hits from Peyton Ullyott, Sampson and Jack Romfo.

Then playing in his last ever game at American Legion Field, Hayes Haslekaas hit a two run single to end the game in story book fashion. Simon Romfo was in control the whole game, striking out eight batters to get the win.

Jake’s take on sports By Jake Kulland

American Legion Baseball moves to the postseason As we get to the later part of July, things move to the postseason for American Legion Baseball. The all new District 5 Tournament will be held in Hatton July 23-27. The Langdon Red Sox have been piling up the league wins as of late, and as such are moving up the standings.

Langdon hoped to be in the upper portion of the tournament seedings, which were not yet released at the time of this writing. Meanwhile the Northern League Babe Ruth Tournament is ongoing July 18-21 at American Legion Field in Langdon. The Langdon Babe Ruth Eagles were trying to make their third straight trip to a state tournament, which will be held this year in Watford City on July 26. If the Red Sox Post 98 would win the District 5 Tourney, they will advance to the State B American Legion Baseball Tournament going on in Hazen beginning July 31. We wish both teams the best of luck in the postseason.

Langdon Country Club to host a portion of the International Tournament; Senior Tour makes a stop July 22 The great golf conditions continue and so does tournament season at the Langdon Country Club. It has been a banner year for the course up to this point, and more good times are on the way this week. The 49th Annual International Golf Tournament, split between the courses of Langdon, Walhalla, Morden and Winkler will held July 26-28. They are expecting just over 300 golfers to participate in the tourney this year.

We welcome all golfers to the area, and they enjoy their time here.

Meanwhile the North Valley Men's Senior Tour will make their annual stop at the Langdon Country Club, and men 50 and over are welcome to participate. Registration is at 9:00 a.m., with a tee time of 10.

And a reminder that the annual Glow-Ball Tournament is set at the course at dusk on the evening of Aug. 2. It's great to see so many activities going on so folks can take advantage of the beautiful links and playing conditions.

"See ya!" next week!

This line item will pay the Hot Lunch fund for the meals utilized by the Sheriff’s Department. There are three families that have received final notices regarding delinquent hot lunch bills. It was the consensus of the Budget and Finance Committee to pursue small claims.

There will be a final phone call and if nothing is received by tomorrow, the small claims paperwork will be filed with the Clerk of Court on Wednesday. Chris Olson discussed the CTS Group meeting held earlier today with the Building Committee. The Building Committee recommends increasing the building fund mills by 12 totaling 15 mills annually to complete the projects recommended by CTS Group. The Building Committee is requesting a special election to be held on October 1st, 2019 for the mill increase.

A steering committee will need to be formed for the advertising and promotion of the election. The vote must pass by 60% of the voters.

By Rita Maisel

SEARCHERS 2019 First of all, an apology for last week’s column which ran into some problems following a storm the night before with power outages which may have affected the halfdone story. Then came some problems with editing before the column was on its way to the newspaper.

In other words, the story had bits and pieces of two different stories on the same subject plus some sentences ended in mid-air and others appeared twice. However, we have already heard from local relatives of some of the “unknown visitors” mentioned last week. And, in addition, there are more visitors searching who might appreciate your help.

One recent visitor has been Mary Lou Lorenz who I did know was working on her family history but was surprised to meet her for the first time this week. Part of her family reached Cavalier County by way of Canada coming as some of the earliest homesteaders in the Koehmstedt and Howatt families. She mentioned having compiled books on those lines earlier while her mother, Anna Mae Hansel, was able to help her identify family pictures. Mary Lou’s more recent books are on the Hansel and Lorenz lines and are beautifully done. I had a chance to page through them but not to read all the stories. Family who have a chance to read them will be amazed at her detailed work. Like many searchers, her work is not complete on some of the families from Galicia where the boundary lines have had many changes since they immigrated, so she continues to try to pin down the necessary facts.

Immigrants from that area who came before the Civil War are remembered as telling stories about escaping down the Oder-Niesse River at night under cover of nets of fish and sailing from Stettin in the Danzig peninsula. Census in America would list them as German and maybe born in West Prussia. Others said they were Austrian, White Russian, Galician, or maybe Pomeranian depending on where the boats began their journey or which side of the river they lived on. In another generation, families who would come to North Dakota often went south and may have sailed from Odessa. Some of those people listed their homeland as the Ukraine,

Cavalier County Republican

Romania, Hungary, the Crimea and Russia. There is an old Gellner family story which details their adventures living in several places in Eastern Europe and, if my memory is correct, they mentioned escaping by train to Belgium or England and then coming to either Canada or the US. Mary Lou’s grandparents on that side of her family came early in the 1900s and may have come through Ellis Island which did not exist until the 1890s. Local family stories may have a lot of similar information, but most have just a few things that are different and make the search unique.

Others who have researched these eastern European families include Margaret Kertz, Ken Moos, Alvin and Ken Wilhelmi, LeeAnn Miller (Kram and Gapp families among others), Gail Melland, Doug and Pam Stremick, Alverda Gellner Mirehouse, Betty Hasey Jones, the group involved in the Wilhelmi Web (an on-line resource of years past), Delebo family members, Bob Domres, and probably many more.

During the years I worked at the courthouse I met some of those people while they were doing their projects, and a few of the published results may now be at the museum at Dresden or under specific family names in the North Dakota Room at the Cavalier County Library. Most of the work takes years. You do not push a button on the computer and have it all print out “for free” as genealogy sites promise.

Sometimes you need expert help, and it could be that some interesting glass slides Darryl Dahl found fall into that classification. He was not sure just how he got them, but being interested in old things, he thought I might have seen something like this before and possibly I have and did not know what I was seeing. These are pictures of vehicles sold by a dealer in cars, trucks and farm implements which look to me to be the type of pictures sent for use in newspapers as an advertisement for a vehicle with the company name and sometimes the price listed in hand-set type under the picture. Identifying them as to make or year would be way beyond my limited knowledge, but there might be a car buff out there who could help.

The following is a sample of what Darryl knew about the man who possibly sold these vehicles.

Herman A. Helgeson came to Osnabrock before 1910 with that date given for the building of the Helgeson home in Osnabrock. He was from Illinois and opened a bank

Langdon Long Ago

in Osnabrock known as the Great Western Bank, a company with its headquarters in Chicago. His first bank was on the site later occupied by the Smith Hardware. He later built a new brick bank which, at the time of the Osnabrock book, was the site of the Town and Country Senior Citizens. He also sold real estate and encouraged new citizens to come from Illinois. When prospective buyers came, he had rooms above the bank where they could stay and used his car, described as a Thomas Flyer, to show them the farms he had for sale.

He also operated an implement business located near the Hewitson and Rourke Garage where he sold Wallace Cub tractors which later became the Massey Harris line of machinery and automobiles. What we do not know is what line of cars he sold. My first thought was to print them with this column, but we do not know if the slides would scan into a computer or not so that might have to wait for another week. If any readers have experience with glass negative or glass slides, please give Darryl or me a call.

There is a bit more to the Helgeson story. In the 1920s the bank failed along with many other banks across the United States. In 1929 the Helgesons sold their home in Osnabrock and moved back to Chicago where he died in 1957. Quite possibly, he may have continued to work for the Great Western Company or one of its successors. A picture in the Osnabrock book shows him with his wife in 1951 as a typical older couple.

Then we found more in the clipping file. In 2005 Bev Paulson from Concrete sent a picture to the Republican for their ‘Remember When’ section. The caption is of Mr. and Mrs. Helgeson and their sons, Robert and Kenneth. While the studio picture is not dated, it is typical of the World War I or early 1920s era and possibly Mr. Paulson had inherited it from his parents.

At some time in the early 1900s Joseph and Catherine Paulson lived in Osnabrock. I believe Joseph was described as a grain buyer or had something to do with the elevator at Osnabrock. There were several children in the family, and in later

years the Paulson family had a farm near Concrete where Bev Paulson farmed.

Mrs. Catherine Paulson, a former teacher, was a prominent lady in the community of Concrete for some time after the death of her first husband in 1931, but she became even more well-known after her second marriage. In 1937 she married Lynn J. Frazier of Hoople, who at that time was serving his third term in the U. S. Senate. He had previously been governor of the state of North Dakota. The couple traveled and were active in political circles for many years. Besides the farm where Bev Paulson farmed there were five other sons and two daughters spread across the United States. One of the daughters was Mrs. Ruth Kippen, living at or near Cavalier, and Mrs. Marian Hamilton, a long-time teacher at Langdon Elementary School.

And yes, yet another family has re-discovered some interesting stories saved by their grandfather and great-grandfather. That will be for next week.

Carter Currey from Langdon Area High School was selected to play in the North Dakota Shrine Bowl at Cushman Field in Grand Forks on July 13. Currey wore #75 for the defense.

Langdon Area Head Coach Josh Krivarchka was selected as the head coach for the East team. The East team beat the West with a score of 27-7.
