The future of the Langdon Area elementary and high school buildings will be decided on Tuesday, October 1 as the board asks the citizens of the Langdon Area School District to approve a substantial building mill levy increase. This will be a deciding factor in the health and longevity of the over 50 year old facilities. The LASD school board voted to pursue a 12 mill increase to their building fund at their July meeting after meeting with CTS Group senior account executive Mark Bucholz who explained that with the proposed improvements, the school would see a savings of $1 million with more energy efficient and modern heating and cooling systems. “The time has come for our district to upgrade and replace some areas of our buildings in an energy and cost efficient manner. This will meet today's standards for the safety, health, and well-being of our students and staff,” the board said. A steering committee was formed that composed of board members: Dawn Kruk, Chris Olson, Steve Olson (building and maintenance committee members) and community members Elizabeth Sillers, Dennis Throndset, Kimberly Hart, Dawn Roppel and Nick Moser. The board members were already familiar with the task at hand, and the community members were approached with the importance

facilities in the area. “The visits started a few years ago with the previous owner, Heidi Witzel, and I just carried on the tradition,” Pederson said.

said. “They keep limping it through, but it’s just a matter of time. Thank God they have the back up, because if they [boilers] both failed at the same time, it could shut the school down. That’s the worst part,” Nick Moser stated. The boilers are not the only concerns at the elementary school as the aged unit ventilators in the school circulate air from the wet tunnels. The elementary school often feels damp as a result of the excessive humid conditions within the tunnels and having very little airflow and temperature control. Add in the corroded hot water piping and various different types of thermostats in the school and the conditions become very uncomfortable for students and staff, not to mention dangerous. “Right now the air circulation for the school runs though tunnels underneath the school. The air is filtered and then forced through the tunnels to the heat registers. The tunnels get wet with ground water, are dirty and are smelly. This is not a great enTunnel Entrance in Library.

LbarP Equine Ranch brings unconditional love and support “There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man.”Winston Churchill. Animals have long been recognized as therapeutic for people, and over the past few decades that awareness has increased. From the 1800s when Florence Nightingale noticed the benefits small pets had on children and adults in their recovery, modern day use of animals provides a range of therapeutic benefits. Residents of care facilities are often stressed or depressed. When animals can be brought in to visit with their owners, the benefits to the elderly resident is very noticeable. The interaction between patient, pet and pet owner encourages a decrease in depression and increases self-esteem. This interaction is calming, reduces anxiety and improves a patient’s overall psychological state. Locally, Leon Pederson of

ing with a trained counselor. Pederson wishes to provide equine therapy to all walks of life. “Whatever mental health issue you are having or if you just want to come out and get something off your chest and go for a fun ride- we are here to make people smile,” Pederson shared. The horses that Pederson brings to the residents for visits have not undergone any formal training as therapy animals, but that doesn’t mean they don’t provide the same relief as a trained animal would. Pederson ensures that horses and, sometimes dogs, are the calmest and friendliest animals he can bring. “The residents like their daily routine, but something sparks in them when something big and new happens at the facility. Having LbarP Equine Ranch come sparks something in the resident that definitely shows on their faces,” explained Kayce Larson, activity director at Macont. on page 3
Salem Bible Church of Munich welcomes new pastor
The community of Munich has welcomed two new faces to their fold. Don Barsness and his wife, Marla, have moved to Munich to perform pastoral duties for the Salem Bible Church early in September. The Barsness’ have been married for 46 years. They have three adult children and five grandchildren. “[They] live farther away than we like,” shared Barsness. Barsness, himself, started his life very interestingly as he was born in Canada. He was raised in Billings, Montana, and attended school there. Following high school graduation, Barsness moved to Minot, where he pursued his college degree. “While my ambition was to be a high school art teacher, I experienced a change in direction at the close of my sophomore year,” Barsness shared. Barsness was familiar with church life and ministry but had not considered taking it up as a vocation for his life. “But the consistent and patient influence of God called
me to find my place in His activity. I’m grateful for family, friends and mentors who confirmed what I believed to be God’s leading,” Barsness said. In the years that followed, Barsness' education as a teacher was applied to the pursuit that led to the beginning of his pastoral ministry, first in educational ministries and then in the role of lead pastor. “Our first call was to Lignite. From there, we pastored in Wahpeton, Grand Forks and Garrison/Riverdale,” Barsness said. Over the past five years, Barsness has served as chaplain at the Heart of America Medical Center in Rugby while also serving on staff at Calvary Evangelical Free Church. The Barsness' travels to Munich began in a conversation with a ministry friend who has roots in Salem Bible Church. Barsness shared, “Not too many months back, as we talked about Salem looking for a pastor, he asked if I would be cont. on page 3

Melissa’s Musings By Melissa Anderson What we value Facebook ads are the worst. Often a scam, they pull you in thinking this may be just the thing you are looking for. For me in particular, Facebook likes to taunt me with the things that are hard to find locally – like delicious macaroons. These entirely decadent little cookies are a weakness I developed when I decided that testing my baking skills was a necessity. I bought the ingredients and put it all together. At the time, I made a lot. They were good to me since I had never had one before, but I wondered what a macaroon from someone who knew what they were doing would be like. This was a few years ago. I have since gotten better, but by no means would I consider myself a pro at making them. I have experimented with flavors and invested in some tools to make the process easier, but the overall effort and patience is still just about the same. It is relatively quick to make the shells and the filling. What is not quick is waiting for the pay out. Back to the reason for the Facebook ads. The social media platform has been mocking me with an
advertisement for macaroons from a company based in Florida. After trying to resist for weeks and eventually doing some research to make sure this was, in fact, a real company, really located in Florida, and really making the macaroons- I was so desperate to try I took the leap and ordered some. I only ordered about a dozen thinking that if they were not good, it would be easier to cry as I ate a dozen rather than try to stomach the waste of money if I ordered more. I need not have worried. My vetting of the company paid off, and the macaroons delivered to me were worth it. Reviewing the cost versus benefit for me on this experience showed that the money I spent was worth it in the long run. I finally got to enjoy the dessert that had been just out of my reach with my own skills. Having the professionally made macaroons with their eccentric flavors definitely out did the mediocre, and somewhat costly, at home attempts I had tried to make. I hope that when others consider what they value, they take into account the bang for the buck and the worth of having someone who knows what they are doing be given the chance. After all, that’s what they are paid to do.

An occasional promoter of our state… Most of us weren’t even aware that Randy Bachman played a concert in Fargo back in January. It was one of those impromptu performances in a lesser known venue, something that has become somewhat common in Fargo. But Randy Bachman is quite familiar with North Dakota. He’s been here a number of times over his illustrious career, and of course, growing up in Winnipeg, the 75-year-old would know his way around North Dakota by default. Nowadays, he doesn’t perform too often, his most recent being a charity event in Winnipeg with former Guess Who partner Burton Cummings. Weekly, however, Bachman has a radio show called Vinyl Tap that airs Friday nights on CBC Radio 1 with an encore Sunday nights on CBC Music, formerly known as CBC Radio 2. It’s amazing what he knows about the history of rock music. He will rattle stuff off the top of his head from a wide range of musicians, events and places. On several occasions he has mentioned Fargo on Vinyl Tap. In one segment, he was talking about a group of friends who were playing hooky from school and traveling to Fargo to see Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper in February 1959. Unfortunately, they learned from a radio broadcast on

Upside Down Under the way that Buddy Holly had been killed in a plane crash in Iowa. In another segment when Randy was with the Guess Who, they were driving into North Dakota when he and Cummings were stopped at the border. They had work visas because they often performed in the United States. As luck would have it, the agents at the border tried to get them to enlist in the U.S. Army to go to Vietnam. Both being Canadian, they decided to return to Winnipeg. Several days later they were preparing to play a concert in Kingston, Ontario. They were warming up and Bachman struck some unfamiliar, but likeable, cords so Cummings started putting words together as he asked Bachman to repeat the cords he just played. After a short time, while on stage in Kingston, they had put together a song that would become a hit and remain popular for decades. It is called American Woman. The song, which was banned from United States radio stations for a time, is widely considered an anti-war theme song. But as Bachman described it on Vinyl Tap, the trip that was stopped in Pembina inspired the song, and it was only coincidental that Vietnam was part of it. To this day, Cummings and Bachman say the song was about them going back to Canada and for American women to stay away because of relationships they already had in Winnipeg. “American woman, I said get way, American woman, listen what I say, Don’t come hanging around my door, Don’t want to see your face no more, I don’t need your war machines, I don’t need your ghetto
scenes, Colored lights can hypnotize, sparkle someone else’s eyes.” “I don’t need your war machines, I don’t need your ghetto scenes” was the reason American Woman wasn’t played on U.S. radio stations in the early 1970s. Instead, North Dakota had an impact on the duo writing that song that is part of the album, also titled “American Woman.” Bachman has talked about other trips to Grand Forks and Fargo. Perhaps he’s like any other Winnipegger who travels to Grand Forks and Fargo for weekend shopping and sporting events. Bachman, who now lives in British Columbia, has a Facebook page and writes frequently about his visits to his hometown of Winnipeg which ties into occasional trips to Fargo for various reasons. Cummings has become sort of a recluse and now lives in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Despite being 75 years old, Bachman and his music remain popular. After the Guess Who broke up, he was also part of the bands Brave Belt and Ironhorse that later became Bachman Turner Overdrive. Mr. Bachman is a personable individual and talks highly of his trips to North Dakota, other than that one stop in 1969 at the border. If you get a chance, tune into Vinyl Tap. If you live near the border, you can pick it up Sundays at 6 p.m., on 98.3 in Winnipeg, 92.7 in Brandon or 101.5 in Warmley, Saskatchewan. If you don’t live close to the border, CBC 1 and CBC Music both stream live on the Internet. All you have to do is download the CBC Radio app.
Just in Passing: Neutering minutes defeats purpose
We all know North Dakota citizens want to keep track of what their elected officials are doing. That’s because whenever given the chance, they vote overwhelmingly to have the minutes of public meetings printed in the newspaper. When North Dakota cities ask their residents to vote on publication of minutes, The collective “Yes” vote comes in at 85 percent. That’s a mandate that most candidates for public office only dream of. Voters in North Dakota school districts are only slightly less adamant about publishing minutes in the official newspaper – 83 percent. But what should those minutes include? There appears to be a trend among public entities to try to save a few pennies by publishing bare bones summaries of the minutes. In many cases the summaries are so slimmed down that the purpose, and the law, are neglected. When you consider laws and attorney general opinions, it’s clear that certain things must be included in minutes that are presented for publication. They include: • The names of members attending.
PUBLISHER AND ADVERTISING MANAGER Lori Peterson
Cavalier County Republican
• The date and time of the meeting. • A list of topics discussed. • A description of each motion and whether it was seconded. • The results of every vote. • The vote of each member on every recorded roll call vote. • A list of checks written to pay the bills. We’ve seen minutes published in newspapers that list all the motions passed without reference to who made or seconded them or a vote tally. We’ve seen minutes containing no bills. We’ve seen minutes where no discussion topics are listed other than those for which motions were made. Have you ever attended a public meeting where there was no discussion except on motions? We’ve seen minutes filled with so many acronyms that the resulting alphabet soup is unintelligible. County, city and school boards that neuter their minutes in these ways are doing a disservice to their constituents. The point of the law isn’t to save every penny possible on the cost of publication. It’s to provide information and transparency to voters and citizens. Newspapers should call on the carpet any government boards that take these extreme shortcuts. Legislative livestream For someone who is even a little bit technologically intuitive, the North Dakota Legislature’s video livestream system is really pretty cool. If you live in Crosby or Colfax or Grafton or Grassy Butte you can turn on your computer and watch in real time as Legislators conduct their floor debates during a session.
Missed what you were looking for? Just log on later and watch he archive. Only interested in one of the 10 bills that were debated that day? Just search for the bill number on the video page and you can skip all the parliamentary procedures and discussions of other matters. The system is so sophisticated that in a matter of minutes I can find a speech my senator dad made on the Senate floor in 2013. I can find it either by searching for his name, or the number of a bill on which he spoke. There’s just one shortcoming. It’s only used for floor sessions of the Senate and House. Proceedings of committee hearings, where most of the give and take and changing of minds occurs, are only available the old-fashioned way – printed on paper. And then only after the clerk has had a chance to transcribe notes and recordings from the meeting. To be sure, the printed record of meetings is important. On video, though, you can see facial expressions. You can judge the tone of questions. You can see for yourself when someone’s emotions are running high. And if you’re a reporter trying to cover two bills with hearings at the same time, you can do one live and one via archive. The idea of livestreaming committee hearings was recently resurrected when a legislator suggested it would particularly benefit citizens with handicaps. North Dakota is one of just eight states that don’t provide live web casts of at least some of their committee meetings. It’s time to catch up to the rest of the world.

Dear Editor
Letter to the Editor: I hired Norm Economy Construction to paint the inside and outside of my house, put a roof on and redo a shower. All he did was replace plumbing and put a floating floor and toilet in. The work was under par at the very best. And I paid him $10,500 for work that was NOT done! I would not recommend hiring him for anything! Michael Richardson 220 4th Street Wales, ND Letter to the Editor: Are you loving an addict to death? Loving someone to death would be labeled as enabling them. Enabling is to excuse, justify, ignore, deny, and smooth over the addiction. This allows the addicted person to avoid facing the full consequences of their addiction. These consequences are typically the reason a person would hit “rock bottom” and they would reach out for help. If they don’t have consequenc-
es why should they stop? They are allowed to ignore responsibilities he or she would otherwise be expected to handle themselves. You enable them by giving them money, paying for a car and phone, paying or providing a place to live, and bailing them out of jail. You love them by giving them food, seeking professional help, getting them treatment, answering when they call, and taking their addiction serious. Enabling creates a very dysfunctional relationship where the enabler lives there whole life around the needs and poor decisions of the addicted person. Enabling a person can put them in there grave. When you stop enabling the person it does not mean you stop loving them. Learn healthy ways to help them.

N.D. car seat misuse rates improve
Over the past nine years, the misuse of car seats has improved by 14% in North Dakota. The rates, which were as high as 86% in 2009, have fallen to 72% in 2018. While the trend is positive, there is still room for improvement. During the last five years in North Dakota, 8 children died and 1,037 children age 12 and younger were injured due to motor vehicle crashes. During National Child Passenger Safety Week, September 15-21, 2019, the North Dakota Department of Health (NDDoH) wants to educate parents and caregivers on the importance of making sure their children ride as safely as possible— every trip, every time. As a partner of the Vision Zero initiative, the NDDoH is stating that appropriate car seat use goes a long way in helping reach the goal of zero fatalities on North Dakota roadways. “As parents and caregivers, we have a long list of things we do for our children to show our love. One of the most important items on the list should be safety,” says Dawn Mayer, Child Passenger Safety Program Director with the NDDoH. “Please make sure you have the right car seat for your child’s age and size and make certain they’re buckled in seats that are installed
correctly. To get help, have your seat checked with a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician.” The NDDoH recommends the following: • Keep children rear-facing as long as possible, up to the top height or weight allowed by their particular seats. • Once a child outgrows the rearfacing-only “infant” car seat, he/ she should travel in a rear-facing “convertible” or all-in-one car seat. • When a child outgrows the rear-facing size limits, the child is ready to travel in a forward-facing car seat with a harness (always use the tether). • After outgrowing the forwardfacing car seat with harness, children should be placed in booster seats until they’re the right size to use seat belts safely. • The safest place for all kids younger than 13 is in the back seat. Parents and caregivers can find more information on car seat safety, including locating a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician at www.nhtsa.gov/carseat<image010. png>, www.ndhealth.gov/injuryprevention/childpassenger or by calling 1-800-472-2286.

YOUTH By Daren Christianson Superintendent Langdon Area School With the October 1 vote for an increase in the building fund levy, there have been some discussions concerning what tax money has been spent on and is able to be spent on. There are basically two groups of funds; there are general fund monies, and there are building fund monies. The general fund levy is tax money utilized for the day-today operations and costs of providing public education. The building fund levy, which is what the October 1 vote is asking to increase, is restricted in its use in the following ways by North Dakota Century Code 57-15-17: Money in the building fund may only be used for: 1. The construction of school district buildings and facilities; 2. The renovation, repair, or expansion of school district buildings and facilities; 3. The improvement of school district buildings, facilities and real property; 4. The leasing of buildings and facilities; 5. The payment of rentals upon contracts with the state board of public-school education; 6. The payment of rentals upon

contracts with municipalities for career and technical education facilities pursuant to chapter 40-57; and 7. The payment of principal, premiums and interest on bonds issued in accordance with subsection 7 of section 21-03-07. There have been some questions about valuations of the windmills in our district and the belief that the school district gets “extra” tax money from the windmills. The value of the windmills is determined by the state of North Dakota and that value is added to the taxable valuation of the school district. The owners of the windmills will pay their fair share of any assessed levies. When the state of North Dakota decided to take on a greater share of school funding, they also lowered the local school district’s ability to levy. The October 1 building fund levy vote will take place at the elementary school building from 11:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m. You may obtain an
Susan Fay Crockett
absentee ballot at the high school any school day from 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. You may come in, fill out the request for ballot, get your ballot and vote immediately if you wish to do so. The purpose for the increase in the building fund is to complete approximately five million dollars of updates and refurbishments to both of our school buildings. The question has been asked as to what the district will do if the vote does not pass. If the vote does not pass, the building and grounds committee will meet and determine the next steps to try and do what they feel needs to be done to the buildings. If the vote to increase the building fund is not a positive result, the multiple projects that are being proposed will need to be prioritized, and with the current funding structure, many of the projects will be delayed for multiple years or not completed.

Human Services alerts Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program households of scam The North Dakota Department of Human Services is alerting Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) households about a telephone scam that is targeting program benefits. The program helps qualifying low-income households buy food. In the telephone scam, a caller indicates that an individual or household will lose their SNAP benefits because he or she owes the program money. The caller provides a telephone number the individual should call to pay back the money using a credit card or another form of payment. Michele Gee, director of the Economic Assistance Policy Division for the North Dakota Department of Human Services said, “Households that qualify for SNAP would never receive a telephone call about an overpayment or potential case closure.” Gee said that SNAP households should not call the number provided in the telephone scam. SNAP households should notify their county social service office if they receive any of these scam calls relating to SNAP benefits. County contact information is online at www. nd.gov/dhs/locations/countysocialserv/. Program benefits are placed on an electronic benefit transfer (EBT) card. Qualifying households use EBT cards
to purchase food at approved grocers, participating farmers markets and other vendors. In August 2019, SNAP served about 48,000 qualifying low-income North Dakotans. The federally-funded program tends to serve mainly low-income children, often in singleparent families, people with disabili-

Mike Klein
Funeral services were held Tuesday, September 17, 2019, at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Bottineau for Mike Klein, 53, of Minot and formerly of Langdon, who died on Wednesday, September 11, 2019, in a Minot hospital from complications related to an ATV accident at Lake Metigoshe on August 31, 2019. His loving family was at his side. Interment will be in the Oak Creek Cemetery in Bottineau. Michael John Klein was born on October 14, 1965 in Langdon to Darrol and Marlene (Anderson) Klein. He was raised and educated in Langdon, baptized and confirmed at United Lutheran Church and received his GED in 1984. He continued his education at AVTI College in East Grand Forks, Minn., graduating in 1987 with a degree in diesel mechanics. He was once married to Vicki Platz. They moved to Minot in 1992. He and his wife, Shelley, have been together for the past 16 years. He held various jobs including, but not limited to, Prairie Truck Equipment, City of Minot and most recently as a partsman and salesman at Tuff Trucks. He was an active member of Pheasants For the Future and was known for his smile
and infectious laugh. He especially enjoyed hunting, fishing, grilling on his smoker, riding motorcycle, watching football, spending time at Lake Metigoshe and being with family and friends. Also, he enjoyed camping, boating, enduro cars and collecting NASCAR memorabilia. Mike’s loving family includes his wife, Shelley; parents Darrol and Marlene Klein of Minot; sister Michelle (Terry) Heck of Miles City Mont.; Shelley’s parents, Harold and Avonne Gessner of Bottineau; sisters-in-law Tammy (Mike) Hall of Newburg and Debbie Nelson of Minot; nieces and nephews: Nicholas (Tahnee) Magnus, Amber Magnus, Bethany (Justin) Hughes, Jameson (Libby) Hall, Jasmine (Jake) Tengesdal, Elizabeth Nelson (Zac Elgie), Jordan Nelson and Alex Nelson; great-nieces and great-nephews: Nicholas Magnus, Dennis and Harrison Hughes, and Piper Tengesdal; and several aunts, uncles and cousins. Mike was preceded in death by his grandparents, Andrew and Myrtle (Horpestad) Klein and John and Clara (Olson) Anderson, as well as several aunts, uncles and cousins. Memorials are preferred. Memories and condolences can be shared at www.thomasfamilyfuneralhome. com. Thomas Family Funeral Home of Minot was in charge of arrangements.
Funeral services were held Thursday, September 19, 2019, at West Funeral Home in West Fargo for Rodney M. Hanggi (Rod) of Horace, who died September 6, 2019, at the age of 76. He had been under hospice care at Villa Maria Nursing Home. Burial will take place in the new Fargo National Cemetery. Rod was born April 3, 1943, in Langdon, the first of five children, to Max and Elaine (Wruck) Hanggi. He was raised on the family farm north of Munich. He always took his farm duties seriously, but his first love was fixing what broke. He said he was raised with a cutting torch in his hand and his mom always said that when given a job that would take a half hour of physical labor, he and his best friend Jim Hall would take two days to figure out how to do it with mechanics. He attended rural grade school and in Clyde and graduated from Munich High School. He then went to Bottineau School of Forestry and NDSU before enlisting in the army. He served in Viet Nam as crew chief on the big Huey helicopters. He then returned to Munich where he and his dad built pickup campers. Then he moved to Fargo and worked in the carpenter shop at St Luke’s Hospital. Unbeknownst to him at that time was a girl working in the lab who would play an important part in his life, but it would take an adult education class in sewing for him to meet is future wife Pat Williams. They were married March 25, 1972 and lived in the mobile home he rebuilt until property became available just across the Sheyenne River. First, he built a pole barn for car
storage, then the shop was erected with blown in place foam. They moved into part of the shop and lived there until Pat talked him into getting going on a real house. He did and they moved in in 2006 and then relaxed, going on car trips and other travels including the Panama Canal and revisiting Carlsbad Caverns. He worked in maintenance at Dakota Hospital, Fargo Clinic, MeritCare, and Sanford Hospitals, but in his spare time he rebuilt wrecked cars including 1966 Chevrolet SS convertible. This took him on the path of collector cars and as he got older, so did his cars, oldest being a 1904 Schacht. He loved the old cars, the people associated with them, and the tours the cars got him into. He felt cars were made to drive but would bring his cars to local shows of the clubs he belonged to which were Valley Vintage Car Club and Red River regional group of the Horseless Carriage Club of America. Rod is survived by his wife, Pat, his sisters Marie Hoel of Salem, Ore., Melanie Heald of Newberg, Ore. and Corrin (Lynn) Belle of Egeland, brother and sister in law Bob and Jeanette Williams of Rochester, Minn., nephews Jarrod Hoel of Aloha, Ore., Arin Belle of Egeland, Scott (Christi) Williams of Shoreview, Minn. and niece Sandee Williams of Eden Prairie, Minn. He was preceded in death by his parents Max and Elaine, sister Coleen Bourgeois, maternal and paternal grandparents and his beloved PussyCat and Nermal. Memorials are suggested in Rod’s honor to McPherson College of Auto Restoration, 1600 E. Euclid, McPherson, KS 67460. West Funeral Home & Life Tribute Center was in charge of arrangements.

From the Pastor’s Desk
Devotions by community pastors
This devotion is submitted by Pastor Don Barsness of Salem Bible Church in Munich
It was the summer of 1965 and the Beatles sang, “Help me if you can, I’m feeling down and I do appreciate you being round, Help me get my feet back on the ground, Won’t you please, please, help me.” Fifteen years later, John Lennon would say that in writing the song, he was crying out for help as the Beatles sought to deal with their rise to fame. Most of us can identify with a cry for help. Life can leave us longing for assistance that would change things for the better. In chapter 5 of 2 Kings, the Bible tells of a man who needed help. Naaman was the highest ranking officer of the Syrian army, but he had a life-controlling problem. He suffered from leprosy, an incurable disease of the skin. As soon as we’re introduced to his hopeless situation, we’re told that Naaman’s wife has a servant girl who is identified as “a little girl from the land of Israel.” The girl tells her mistress that she believes Naaman could be cured of the leprosy. All he needs to do is go to Israel and seek the help of the prophet of God. The prophet’s name is Elisha. If you’re familiar with the story, you know that Naaman goes to Israel in search of Elisha. The plot thickens when he arrives at Elisha’s home. The prophet of God sends a messenger to tell Naaman that he’ll be
healed by washing in the Jordan River. Elisha doesn’t even come out to meet this high ranking officer, and now he’s instructed Naaman to wash in a dirty river. Naaman is so angry that he’s ready to return to Syria without the healing he longs for, but his servants intervene and convincing their outraged master to humble himself and follow Elisha’s instructions. The crisis passes when Naaman goes down to the river and dips seven times in its muddy flow. The results are life-changing. The Bible records that Naaman’s “flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.” God has intervened. Having received miraculous healing, Naaman confesses faith in the One who has healed him, stating, “I know that there is no God in all the earth but in Israel.” Psalm 46:1 reminds us that “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Like Naaman, when we need help, God is our capable rescuer. The search for God’s help may lead us to unfamiliar places – a Bible study, a gathering for prayer, or an earlymorning church service; it is God who promises to reward our quest. Joy awaits us – the joy of finding help and the fullness of joy experienced by those who come to faith in the One who is our helper.
Flu vaccine season is approaching The flu season will soon be upon us, and it’s time to begin thinking about getting your flu and/or pneumococcal immunizations. Who should get influenza vaccine? All people 6 months of age and older should get an annual influenza vaccine. Vaccination is especially important for people at higher risk of severe influenza and their close contacts, including healthcare personnel, close contacts of children younger than 6 months and adults over the age of 65. The company that produces the high-dose influenza vaccine for adults age 65 and over are experiencing shipment delays and adequate supplies may not be available until later October and into November. Influenza can occur at any time, but most influenza occurs from November through May. In recent sea-
sons, most infections have occurred in January and February. For all school-age children – influenza vaccine clinics will be held in all Cavalier County schools. Watch for more information being sent home with students or check the Cavalier County Public Health website at www.cavaliercountyhealth.com . Flu vaccine clinics in the Cavalier County will start in October and continue through November. Vaccine will continue to be available throughout the winter months while supplies last. Make a commitment to staying healthy this winter by getting your flu and/or pneumococcal shots preferably in October or November. For more information, contact the public health office at 701-256-2402 or contact your healthcare provider.

North Dakota corn and ethanol industries partner with fuel retailers to offer Unleaded88 The North Dakota Corn Utilization Council, in coordination with the North Dakota Ethanol Council, is implementing the North Dakota Unleaded88 Expansion Program. The program’s goal is to partner with fuel retailers to provide drivers with Unleaded88, a higher-octane fuel containing 15 percent ethanol and 85 percent gasoline. Matching grant dollars from the North Dakota Corn Utilization Council will be available through June 30, 2020, to fuel retailers for infrastructure necessary to offer Unleaded88. Unleaded88 provides a safe, economical, cleaner fuel option for consumers. It is government approved for all conventional light-duty vehicles, model 2001 and newer. These vehicles make up 90 percent of the light-duty vehicles on the road today. “North Dakota’s five ethanol
plants purchase 40-60 percent of the state’s corn crop annually providing a significant value-added market opportunity for North Dakota’s agricultural producers,” says Terry Wehlander, chairman of the North Dakota Corn Utilization Council. “Expanding the availability of Unleaded88 creates more market stability when the agriculture industry is struggling with a number of significant uncertainties.” “Offering Unleaded88 at additional fuel retail stations across the state is beneficial for consumers and our rural communities,” says Jeff Zueger, chairman of the North Dakota Ethanol Council. “We look forward to working with the state’s fuel retailers and the Corn Council on this important program.” The program guidelines provide that funds be awarded to fuel retailers on a first-come-first-serve basis
and can be used for dispensers, piping, hardware and signage for distribution of ethanol blends of Unleaded88 or higher. After receiving the grant, retailers will be required to offer Unleaded88 for a minimum of 24 months. With the assistance of the North Dakota Corn Utilization Council and the North Dakota Ethanol Council, retailers will carry out marketing programs to further promote the use of Unleaded88 or higher ethanol blends. “It is our hope that this program be mutually beneficial for our North Dakota fuel retailers, consumers, and farmers.” says Jean Henning, North Dakota Corn Utilization Council Executive Director. “We are looking forward to a positive response from retailers and prompt development of the Unleaded88 infrastructure statewide.”
Brush with the Bunch
Next in our series “Where are your paintings/pictures hanging?“ is Kevin “Cocoa“ Beauchamp, and he wrote, “I had my sister‘s name for Christmas three years ago, and I had taken these pictures as I drove home from a day‘s work at the Langdon Country Club. Pictures were taken on a backroad closer to the country club than to Olga with the sun shining on the grain with the dark blue sky above. During the year the same route changed from newly-seeded grain to grain that was just coming out of the ground to what you see now, golden fields of ripe grain ready for the combine. I couldn‘t resist taking these pictures. I framed them in old barn wood and showed them at the Brush Bunch Art show in 2016. When Christmas came around, I wrapped and mailed them to my sister, Debbie Goyette, and they hang in her living room in Paulsbo, Washington.“ Deb said that they reminded her of home (Olga). Thanks, Kevin, for the report. Our theme for our Brush Bunch Art Show and Sale for May of 2020 has been selected, but I better double check before printing it. We meet every Tuesday at the Gorge Gallery- you are welcome to stop by any time between 10 and 4. From proofreading is a dying art: “Police begin campaign to run down Jaywalkers.“ (Ouch.)

Cardinals get big win at Rugby taming the Panthers 40-6 By JAKE KULLAND Republican Sports Writer
In what they thought would be one their tougher road conference games this season, the LangdonEdmore-Munich Cardinals football team played at Rugby on September 13. The Cardinals had to punt for the first time this season, but they still had plenty of offense to win over the Panthers 40-6. The Cards first team defense has still yet to give up a point this season. The win puts the Cardinals record at 4-0 overall and now 2-0 in Region 2A conference contests. After entertaining Harvey-Wells County on September 20, the Cards hit the road again to play at WesthopeNewburg-Glenburn in Westhope on September 27. Langdon-EdmoreMunich's next home game is October 4 versus Bottineau. The Cards had a great start at Rugby, holding the Panthers defensively and getting two first quarter touchdowns through the air from Simon Romfo to Jackson Delvo from 18 and 38 yards. Noah Anderson would run in a two point con-
version on the first TD. Rugby would stiffen up defensively to begin the second quarter, again forcing the Cardinals to punt for the first time this season, which they would do three times in the game. But a big play happened just about midway through the second quarter when Simon Romfo intercepted a pass from Jaden Hamilton and ran it in 30 yards for a defensive touchdown. The Cards would later add another score on a great catch of a screen pass by Anderson, who then had a caravan of blockers to lead him into the end zone untouched. That made the score 28-0 at halftime. Late in the third quarter Grant Romfo, who had a big all-around game for the Cards, scored on a four yard run. Grant ran for a team high 87 yards and also had a career high seven catches for 108 yards receiving. Anderson tacked on the last score on a six yard run. Defensively Langdon-EdmoreMunich would sack Hamilton seven times, with two each from Jesse Fetsch and Alex Cluchie leading the way.

By JAKE KULLAND Republican Sports Writer Congratulations to Langdon graduate Sydney Ellingson! The former LEM Lady Cardinal has been enjoying a great college volleyball career at the University of Jamestown. She starts for the Jimmies as a defensive specialist, and she is coming off a fantastic week on the court. Sydney was named the Great Plains Conference Volley-
ball Defensive Player of the Week and also the Jamestown Optimists Women's Athlete of the Week, both for her great play the week of September 9-15. The Jimmies junior had 39 digs in two road conference wins. Her University of Jamestown team is ranked 13th in the country in the latest NAIA poll, and they are the only North Dakota team in the top 25. We congratulate her on both honors and wish her the best the rest of the season for the Jimmies. Way to go, Syd!

Lady Cards battle to beat Thompson 3-1 before a big crowd By Jake kulland Republican Sports Writer A large contingent of fans was on hand when the Langdon-EdmoreMunich Cardinals girls volleyball team played their first home match versus Thompson on September 12. It was America Night for the student section, as they were all decked out in red, white and blue, plus it was also Volleyball Buddy Night, where some young and future Cardinals joined the varsity team for the warmups and starting lineups. The Lady Cards fought through a couple of rough stretches and won the match 3-1 on set scores of 2125, 25-17, 25-22 and 25-20. With the win the Cardinals pushed their record to 6-1 on the season. They hosted North Border on September 19 and will play in a 20-team Valley City Optimists Tournament on September 21. They will have a busy week ahead, playing two Region 4 matches- one at Benson County on September 24 then at home vs. Dunseith on September 26. In their match with the Tommies, the Cards were down for most of the first set before tying it up at 18. They never could grab a lead in the first frame and lost 25-21. In set two, Langdon-Edmore-Munich played perhaps their best set this season, showing the big time potential they have when everything is put together. They jumped to a 2212 lead on their way to a 25-17 win. With the match score tied at one
set apiece, the Cardinals and the Tommies traded big runs, with the Cards going on an 8-0 streak to lead at one time 16-8, only to see Thompson run off seven straight points to get within one. But Langdon-Edmore-Munich gutted it out to win 25-22. In set four, the Lady Cards battled themselves with double digits in unforced errors but still won

Cross Country meet set for Sept. 23 at Langdon Country Club The annual Harvey Hope Memorial Cross Country Meet is set to go Sept. 23 at the Langdon Country Club. Approximately eight teams from across the region will be participating. This is the only meet scheduled for Langdon this season, so hopefully fans will get out and see the runners in person. The Cardinals Elise Ramberg is once again ranked number one in the state in the latest girls individual cross country poll, but a number of girls and boys runners have been doing very well this season. The meet will start at 4:00 p.m. And speaking of the club, Tuesday Men's Stag Nights at the course will continue for the next couple of weeks, with the Fall Meeting for the Langdon Country Club happening Oct. 8 at 6:30 p.m. Cardinals football stays unbeaten; Grade school team to play at the Fargodome Sept. 29 Things are right on course for the
Langdon-Edmore-Munich football team. The Cardinals are unbeaten at 4-0 on the year as we hit the halfway point of the season. While much is talked about the Cards offensive prowess and rightfully so, it's been the defense so far that has been the unsung heroes of the team thus far. The Cardinals first team defense has not allowed a point all season, and they have been one hard hitting, ball hawking group. Langdon-Edmore-Munich had seven quarterback sacks versus Rugby, and have been holding teams to near negative numbers in rushing thus far. After playing at WesthopeNewburg-Glenburn on Sept. 27, the Cardinals will have a two game home stand against Bottineau on Oct. 4, and Carrington on Oct. 11, which will also be Homecoming and Senior Night. The Langdon-Edmore-Munich grade school team, made up of over 30 4-6 graders will get the honor of playing at the Fargodome on Sept. 29. This is something they have done for the last couple of years now, but how much fun will they be having being able to play on the very same field the top ranked Bison do. We hope it's another suc-
cessful event once again this year. Ellingson, Hart excelling in college volleyball at Jamestown and UND You will notice in this weeks Republican that Langdon graduate and now University of Jamestown junior Sydney Ellingson got two different player of the week honors from her conference and from the Jamestown Optimists clubs this past week. She and former Lady Cards teammate Madi Hart have gotten off to great 2019 year of women's volleyball. Hart is listed as a sophomore for the UND Fighting Hawks team, and is fourth on the team in digs and has three service aces so far, as the 7-5 Hawks get ready for conference play. Ellingson meanwhile leads the Jimmies in digs with 228, and has 11 aces, good for fourth on the team for her 12-2 team. Jamestown is ranked 13th in the country in the NAIA Top 25. It's great to see both ladies doing so well at the collegiate level, and we hope they both keep up the great work. "See ya!" next week!

Storage Options for Grains (By Kenneth Hellevang, NDSU Extension Agricultural Engineer &Professor) All storage options should keep the grain dry and provide adequate aeration to control the grain temperature. Grain can be stored in many types of facilities. The important point is that all storage options should keep the grain dry and provide adequate aeration to control grain temperature. Grain must be dry and cool (near the average outdoor temperature) when placed in alternative storage facilities because providing adequate, uniform airflow to dry grain or cool grain coming from a dryer is not feasible. Structural Issues: Grain pushing against walls can damage buildings not built for grain storage. The wall must be anchored securely, and its structural members must be strong enough to transfer the force to the building poles or support structure without breaking or excessive bending. Typically, you’ll need additional poles and a grain wall to support the grain force in a pole building. Hire an engineer to complete a structural analysis, or have a contractor follow exactly the building company recommendations to prevent a structural failure. Before placing grain in a building previously used for grain storage, look for anything out of alignment, such as wall bowing and

distortions in the roofline. Bowing or bending indicates the load on the building exceeded the load for which it was designed and built. This weakens the structure. Also examine connections for separation or movement and add a gusset or splice to reinforce the connection if necessary. Storing in Bags: Storing grain in poly bags is a good option, but it does not prevent mold growth in damp grain or insect infestations. Place grain in the bag at recommended storage moisture contents based on grain and outdoor temperatures during the potential storage period. Heating will occur if the grain exceeds a safe storage moisture content and it cannot be aerated to control heating. The average temperature of dry grain will follow the average outdoor temperature. Guidelines for storing grain in bags include: • Select an elevated, welldrained site for the storage bags. Run the bags north and south so solar heating is similar on both sides. Sunshine on just one side heats that side, which can lead to moisture accumulation in the grain and spoilage on the cool side. • Monitor the bags for damage. Wildlife can puncture the bags, allowing moisture in, which can lead to spoilage and the grain smell being released, which attracts more wildlife. • Monitor the grain temperature at several places in the bags. • Never enter a grain bag because it is a suffocation hazard. If unloading the bag with a pneumatic grain conveyor, the suction can “shrink wrap” a person. Grain Piles: Grain frequently is stored short term in outdoor piles. However, precipitation is a severe problem for uncovered grain because grain is very porous. A 1-inch rain will increase the moisture content of a 1-foot layer of corn by 9 percentage points. This typically leads to the loss of at least a couple of feet of grain on the pile surface, which is a huge loss. For example, a coneshaped pile 25 feet high contains approximately 59,000 bushels of grain. Losing just 1 foot of grain on the surface is a loss of about 13 percent of the grain, which is $39,000 if the grain value is $4 per bushel and $78,000 at $8 per bushel. Aeration and wind blowing on the pile will not dry wet grain adequately to prevent spoilage. Use a cover to prevent water infiltration. Drainage is critically important to the success of any grain storage. About 25,000 gallons of water will run off an area about 100 by 400 feet during a 1-inch rain. This water must flow away from the grain and the area next to it. When determining a location for a pile, examine the entire area to assure that flooding will not occur during major rain events. The outdoor ground surface where grain will be piled should be prepared to limit soil moisture from reaching the grain. The storage floor also should be higher than the surrounding ground to minimize mois-

NDSU Extension Notes
ture transfer from the soil into the grain. Make sure the ground surface is crowned so moisture drains out and away rather than creating a wet pocket that leads to grain deterioration. Also, look for these issues: • Anything out of alignment in a bunker or bulkhead wall - Any twisting, flexing or bending of a structural member may lead to a failure. • Separation or movement in connections • Material deterioration Grain Covers: A combination of restraining straps and suction from the aeration system holds grain covers in place, and provides adequate airflow through the grain to control grain temperature. Place perforated ducts on the grain under the cover to provide a controlled air intake for the aeration system and airflow near the cover to minimize condensation problems under the cover. Place properly sized and spaced ducts under the pile on the ground to pull air through the grain. Some storage options use a perforated wall for the air inlet. Minimize the amount of open area so the air does not “short-circuit” to the fan. Wind velocity determines the amount of suction you need to hold the cover down. Some control systems measure wind velocity and start fans based on the wind speed. Backup power can hold the cover down during power outages. Make sure the backup power starts when needed. Cooling Stored Grain: Cool grain with aeration to extend the allowable storage time and reduce the potential for insect infestation. Temperatures below about 60 F reduce insect reproduction. Insects are dormant below about 50 F, and extended exposure to temperatures below about 30 F can kill insects. Cooling grain as outdoor temperatures cool will reduce moisture migration and the condensation potential near the top of the grain pile. Also, the grain should be cooled because grain moisture content and temperature affect the rate of mold growth and grain deterioration. The allowable storage time approximately doubles with each 10-degree reduction in grain temperature. For example, the allowable storage time for 17 percent moisture corn is about 130 days at 50 F and about 280 days at 40 F. The grain
should be cooled whenever the average outdoor temperature is 10 to 15 degrees cooler than the grain. It should be cooled to near or below 30 degrees for winter storage in northern states and near or below 40 degrees in southern states. Aeration ducts need to have per-
or cracked kernels. Remember, airflow through the grain permits grain temperature to be maintained, but it does not extend the allowable storage time. For more information, visit NDSU grain drying and storage website (or https://www.ag.ndsu.
forations sized and spaced correctly for air to enter and exit the ducts uniformly and obtain the desired airflow through the grain. The maximum spacing for aeration ducts is equal to the grain depth to achieve acceptable airflow uniformity. Long-term Grain Storage: Grain has an acceptable storage life before the quality is reduced enough to impact its value. Allowable storage time is cumulative, so consider the amount of storage life remaining when deciding if you can store the grain longer. For example, if corn is stored at 14 percent moisture and 60 degrees for two months (November-December), then cooled to 40 degrees for four months (January-April), then stored through the summer months (May-August) at 70 degrees, approximately 90 percent of the storage life has been used. That means very little expected allowable storage life is remaining if the grain is going to be stored for another year. Grain going into storage for a second year needs to have been kept cool and dry during the first year and have few broken
edu/graindrying) Scout Millet Fields for Palmer Amaranth (By Joe Ikley, NDSU Extension Weed Specialist) The North Dakota Department of Agriculture is encouraging anyone with millet fields to scout them for the presence of Palmer amaranth. The North Dakota Department of Agriculture is encouraging anyone with millet fields to scout them for the presence of Palmer amaranth. Palmer amaranth has been confirmed in multiple millet fields in both Grant and Emmons counties over the last two weeks. In some fields, the Palmer amaranth plants were taller than the millet canopy and visible from the road. However, it was also difficult to detect Palmer is some of the fields since it was the same height or shorter than the millet canopy. Millet has been in high demand this summer as both a feed and cover crop source, and we are encouraging anyone in North Dakota who still has standing millet to scout for the presence of Palmer amaranth.

Langdon Area School Board Minutes
Business Manager report was reviewed by the Board. Topics of discussion included hot lunch and activity fees, free and reduced applications, ancillary handbook, payroll for 2019-2020, negotiated agreement signatures, medication training, bank reconciliations, 121, 21st century grant coding, teacher orders, policy amendments needed, new retention location, destruction of records log, key fob system, staff leave through Family ID, bus driver’s workshop, October 1st ballot and election, and audited files. Visitors were welcomed. Preview of Agenda: No additions. Communications: Cavalier County Republican letter read to Board by Cindy Stremick requesting the school’s assistance in honoring and celebrating our local students awards and accomplishments. Stephanie Fetsch discussed with the Board that there will not be a football cheer squad this fall due to low numbers. She proposed instead to have a pep club that would be active all year with promoting good school spirit. The contracted pay for the Pep Club advisor was discussed with the consensus of the Board to have a review at the end of the year with Stephanie Fetsch. Tiffany Hetletved made a motion to approve having a Pep Club with Stephanie Fetsch as the advisor receiving the same pay rate as what her current football cheer coach rate is. Dawn Kruk seconded the motion. Motion was carried. Administrators’ Reports: Superintendent’s Report- Daren Christianson reviewed his report with the Board. Topics of discussion included professional development, counseling duties, foster care and homeless liaison responsibilities. Daren Christianson added that he’s been in contact with Catholic Charities of ND negotiating a contract to have Barb Boesl one day per week as a counselor to help with student needs. He reviewed the contract with the Board. Daren Christianson stated that Jordan Braunberger has agreed to a long-term sub position over the noon hour every day for the rest of the year to be available for students in need. The consensus of the Board was to move forward with a contract with Catholic Charities for one day per week. Daren Christianson discussed the teacher in-service, scholarships and schedules. Elementary Principal Report: Todd Hetler discussed staff development training over the summer and standard base grading that the elementary will be moving towards. Middle School/High School Principal Report: Stephanie Hochhalter stated that she reviewed with teachers the thirteen initiatives in the school’s strategic plan and the teachers chose what direction they wanted to move in this year. Standards based grading was one of the topics chosen. It was decided to wait until the Elementary has implemented it and then the middle and high school follow suit. Climate and Culture is the priority focus of the teachers as well as working with the Marzano standards and supporting each other. Stephanie Hochhalter discussed the middle school cardinal skills with
will be held October 1-2 in the community of Garrison, North Dakota. “What’s special about this conference is that it takes place in a rural community and is designed to help rural entrepreneurs or anyone else with an idea and passion to make their opportunities right where they are,” says Jodi Bruns, NDSU Extension leadership and civic engagement specialist. “If you already own a business, are thinking about starting one, or you want to learn more about how to help small businesses succeed in your community, this conference is for you,” Bruns continues. On the first day of the conference, keynote speaker Annie Carlson of Mercer, will share real-life advice from a real-life entrepreneur. Carlson and her husband, John, own and operate Morning Joy Farm, located in Mercer. The farm is a third generation, pasture-based, local-market farm with a commercial kitchen and food truck that specializes in homemade catered meals for special events, bulk family meals, cooking classes and helping their customers know where their food is grown. In her keynote address, Carlson will discuss her experiences in a Fortune 500 Company and running a one-woman show, and share what she has learned from her successes and failures. On day two, Chappy Windsor, founder and chief executive officer of Dakota Chappy, a clothing store based in Minot and Bismarck, will
share her passion for serving women and changing lives. Windsor, a North Dakota native, is an inventor, entrepreneur and small business champion. Her desire to increase mobility and utility in women’s clothing has put her at the forefront of change in the fashion industry.

By Rita Maisel
Wedding Headlines: Helen Olson’s scrapbook has information on almost every topic of interest to her family and is filled with great stories. She won prizes for her book at the county and state fair exhibits when she was involved in 4-H projects, and the book today is neatly organized into several sections: obituaries, stories of pioneers, weddings, war-time clippings, school events and information on special teachers, long-time friends and neighbors, and churches or pastors she knew down through the years. It is the kind of book that you see new things each time you open its pages. I had skipped rather briefly over the weddings on earlier readings partly because there had been a column with wedding details from 1946 and 1947 in October 2017. That earlier column was based on clippings saved by the late Rose Moos. However, the stories this week from Helen’s book are a slightly earlier vintage, and this time around it was the headlines which caught my eye, both for what they said and what they did not say. The format and the information offered appeared to change as the years went by which could be a change in customs or new people writing the society news for the Cavalier County Republican. Early samples from 1940 said“Gladys Jennings is Married Tuesday Noon,” “Marjorie Rueger and Clifford Smith Married,” or “Geneva Irwin Is Married to St. Thomas Man.” Each of these types of headlines has a three-line sub-headline with details. Gladys’s second headline read “Langdon Girl Weds Joseph Kellerhuis at Jennings Family Home” in somewhat smaller print. Marjorie’s read “Couple Will Live In Langdon After Wedding Trip To Yellowstone National”. Geneva’s read “Ceremony Wednesday at Farm Home of Bride’s Mother, North of Langdon”. Each of the stories then had the traditional who took part in the wedding, what the bride and others attending wore, who was entertained at a wedding dinner, where they went for their honeymoon and listings of out-of-
Cavalier County Republican
town guests. In 1941 a different writer may have taken over the society page of the Republican because the headlines changed. “Donald Rylance Is Wed to Hope Girl,” and “Langdon Girl Is Wed August 20”. You have to read further to find out the name of the girl involved and other details. A three-line sub-head tells us “Muriel Boomgaarden is Married at Home to South Dakota Man”. Donald was married in a Catholic church, and the details list that covers were laid for 35 at a wedding breakfast served after the ceremony. If you read far enough down, you do find the name of the bride or groom who is not a local resident. Muriel, being the bride, has her green dress with brown accessories described as well as the flowers she and her attendant carried. A wedding dinner followed for the bridal party and relatives with details on their future home in Los Angeles. This clipping was filed by the Harvey (Twp.) reporter. The Nekoma reporter wrote the story when “Felix Wilhelmi and Edna Field Wed” at St. Edward’s Church. The wedding breakfast was served by the groom’s mother for immediate relatives. Listed as a guest from a distance was the bride’s mother from Langdon. On April 15, 1942, Agnes Robertson of Langdon married Mayo Meadows of Carrington. They were married at the home of her sister in Harrison, Ark. The groom managed the Carrington and Harvey drug stores, and the bride was a graduate of Bismarck Hospital. “Ila Romfo Weds Lyle Murie” read another 1942 clipping with a sub-headline of “Nuptial Rites Read for County Couple At Bride’s Home”. While the bride and groom are no longer with us some of their wedding party still live in the area. Ila carried red roses and Iilies of the valley for her wedding. Bud was already farming, and before her marriage Ila had a beauty shop in Walhalla. Some readers may remember a giant bouquet of 50 roses specially ordered for their golden anniversary. 1943 began a series of wedding stories marked by World War II. “Nurse and Flier Are Married In California” had the sub-headline “Millicent Waind of Langdon And Warren Waind Of Milton Are Wed”.
Langdon Long Ago
Millie was the nurse, and Warren, at the time, was an Aviation Cadet. Reporters capitalized each and every word in the story introductions. Millie and Warren were married on Christmas Eve at a Presbyterian chapel in Lynnwood, California. The bride wore powder blue with rust accessories. She would be living with friends in California while he completed his training to be a pilot. “Langdon Couple Wed in Texas” is the story of Helen Westphal and Pvt. Raymond Gustafson who were married Dec. 23, 1943, at San Antonio where Ray was stationed at Kelly Field. A reception was held in the Manhattan Café following the ceremony. Helen wore a street length dress of brown with green accessories. “Delores Johnson Weds In West” has a sub-heading of “Loam Township Girl Married Soldier On Leave From Duty in Alaska”. Following her graduation from LHS Delores had gone west and was employed in a war plant at Bellingham for two years. That is where she met Kermit Hause who lived in Washington before entering the Army. 1944 was a year when powder blue was popular, and she wore a two-piece suit with a white orchid corsage for her wedding. A wedding dinner was served at the Leopold Hotel in Bellingham. “Sailor Married Nekoma Girl” marks the wedding of Fay Sholey and Seaman Kenneth Dick at their Nekoma wedding on February 25. Elaine Brown sang for the wedding, and Marjorie Dick (his sister) attended the bride. Many of his friends who might have been attendants were also in service at the time so the story lists him as “unattended”. The bride wore a checked suit and carried a testament. A wedding dinner was held at the Sholey home. This story is also by the Nekoma reporter. “Langdon Girl Is Wed At Atlanta” is the story of Rosemary Hamann of Langdon and Pvt. Harold Lothspeich of Wales who were married at the post chapel at Camp Conley, the army ordinance depot at Atlanta, Georgia, by the post chaplain in 1944. Both Harold and Rosemary had been welders at a Seattle shipyard before he entered the army the previous September. By the end of this story Harold had received a

promotion and the writer lists Cpl. and Mrs. Lothspeich were making their home in Atlanta. Of the ladies whose weddings have been previously mentioned, Rosemary was the first who is presently living, but the very next clipping lists the wedding of Eileen Dunford of Osnabrock and Seaman Ferrill Meroney who were married April 7, 1944. Following the war, the Meroneys settled in Texas where snowbirds from this area have enjoyed visiting with them down through the years. We believe Eileen is also living. 1944 had many weddings, and it seems a shame to not write about them all since some have family in our area, but one stood out as special with a heading that lists both members of the couple: “Della Murie Weds Floyd Crockett”. Della is alive, and we hope doing well. Their wedding was August 2 at high noon at the home of the bride with Margaret and Orin Crockett as their attendants. Della wore a gold colored dress, with brown trimmings and accessories, and carried red roses. This is the first of the wedding stories to mention grandparents in attendance – Mr. and Mrs. Robert Murie. Following the ceremony, a dinner was served at the Murie home. Garden flowers were used in the house decorations. Wartime weddings included a variety of innovations, and using flowers from a family garden was often mentioned. That same month “Seaman Waind And Inez Kelly Marry” was the headline for a story about a popular Langdon nurse marrying a Milton sailor at Waukegan, Illinois,
Brent Vernon to appear at Langdon Presbyterian Church Brent Vernon usually introduces himself as a “singer-songwriter, ventriloquist, and children’s author-illustrator from South Florida.” As a child, he developed a love for puppetry and music and enjoyed drawing cartoon characters and playing the piano. When he was eight, his parents gave him his first ventriloquism figure. During high school, Brent became passionate about sharing his faith through music and assembled a small vocal group known as “Vision.” After high school, the group went on the road full-time, sharing over 200 concerts a year in the late 1990s. Together, they released four albums. His ventriloquism act became a popular part of the show. Sam the puppet and Brent have been a team for many years. When Vision stopped touring as a group, Brent and Sam continued to travel on their own. In 2001, he

where Inez had relatives living. At that time Mark Waind was assigned to the nearby Great Lakes station. Inez wore a suit of aqua wool with white accessories and a corsage of gardenia and pink roses. Her mother had come to Waukegan for the wedding and served as matron of honor wearing a two-piece dress of rose wool. The bride’s sister, Iris, was bridesmaid wearing grey wool jersey. While readers may question “wool” fabrics for August, wool was considered very dressy and worn in all seasons. The wedding cake was baked and decorated by the bride’s mother who had relatives in the area. Both relatives and friends from Langdon living near Chicago attended the wedding and dinner at the Genesee Cupboard in Waukegan. In November of 1944 Delphia Zarn and Ernest Mutcher held their wedding in the living room of Rev. Duncan Matheson’s home - a favorite spot for more than one couple at that time since the Matheson home had a fireplace! The Matheson living room would not have held the relatives on both sides of their families, but a candlelight wedding dinner was held at the home of the bride’s parents after the ceremony. A four-tier wedding cake was featured on the table. I had planned to end this story with the wedding of Helen Jennings and Ron Olson, married at Fargo after he returned from his years of service, but the weddings of that later era included changes in styles and in reporting that could be covered in yet another story. Maybe next year.

recorded his first solo album “A Thousand Pictures.” In 2015, he decided to record again and produced “Hope & Hunger.” Brent has also written a number of children’s books. One series is a b o u t Audrey Amaka, a little giraffe born without a neck, who learns to “take what you have and do somet h i n g good with it.” Brent’s ultimate goal is to connect with people in meaningful ways and point them to a loving God. For him, every story is “a story of redemption”, and every song is “a testament to Grace.” Brent Vernon will be appearing at the Langdon Presbyterian Church on Thursday, September 26 at 7:00 p.m. A love offering will be taken during the program, and a time of fellowship will follow. Everyone is invited!
