For three days, it will not be the Labor Day Weekend. It will be something more important, at least in Dunn County. It will be a wild mixture of music, mud volleyball and Rodeo, with a Lions Fish Fry thrown in for good measure. It will be time for the Dunn County Fair, which opens up Friday with a Fish Fry at 4 p.m. and the Killdeer-Hazen football game at 6 p.m., among other events. Then on Saturday, the 5-kilometer run will start things off at 8 a.m., along with a softball tournament at 10 a.m., Badlands Rodeo at 6 p.m. and a free concert by the Josh Kehr Band at 8 p.m. On Sunday, there will be Mud Volleyball at 10 a.m., Native Dancers at 1 p.m. and the Wild Rides Rodeo at 6 p.m. A golf scramble tourney at Medicine Hole Golf Course Monday at 10 a.m. will close out the fair schedule.
The Josh Kehr Band performs Saturday.
The mud volleyball tournament will start at 10 a.m. Sunday morning. Submitted photo

Staff Report Dunn County has just added something new for local schools - a badge and just in time for the start of school. The Dunn County Sheriffs Office has announced that it has hired its first school resource officer, Dep. Jacob Nikko. Dep. Nikko just recently completed the Law Enforcement Academy in Bismarck. The Minnesota native is 25 years old and a Marine Corps veteran. According to a DCSO spokesman, Nikko is excited to begin his career with the Dunn County Sheriff ’s Office as our newest SRO. The school resource officer program Dep. Jacob Nikko was proposed by Sheriff Gary Kuhn to enhance community relations between the Sheriff ’s Office and the community, specifically for the children. Among the duties for the newest hire will be to provide a daily presence in the schools, school events, and school sports to provide added safety to our teachers, staff, and students. In addition, the SRO will also assist with providing school safety training and presentations in topics such as active shooter threats, drugs, K9, and career day to name a few, the spokesman added. In addition to participating in the first day of school at Killdeer Public School, the agency also combined with the Dickinson Police Department for additional training. The department attended a presentation Aug. 20 on ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) Active Shooter Training at the Killdeer School.

Hello, I’m not sure how this will go. I’m writing on a borrowed computer and sitting on a box. So if somewhere in the middle of this article, I drift off and don’t get it finished, so be it. I’m not very techy. If that is even a word. I never was a real techy guy. When I was much, much younger my friends were a lot handier than I. They would talk about car stuff. They would talk about 4 barrels and dual exhaust. They would talk rpm’s and gear ratios. I could drive a 4 speed pickup or a 2 ton truck with a load of grain. And I wasn’t real good at that. You heard about the guy who drove out of the grain elevator and forgot to put his hoist down? That was me. You heard about the guy that hit a washboardy spot on the gravel outside Berthold and rolled a car in Shelkey’s slew? Yup. That was me. You heard about the guy that raced someone down mainstreet, in reverse mind you, and lost control and backed through the John Deere dealership. Yup. You guess it. Now, not all of these incidents have to do with techy stuff, but they show the mentality of the operator. I mean I didn’t even know pickles were made from cucumbers until I had been married for five years! I
DEAN MEYERS was like a lot of people are about their meat and potatoes. You just get them at the store. Now one of the newest, I would call it a fad, is the burger that doesn’t have any meat in it. Some call it the beyond burger, or the impossible burger. It is favored by people who want to eat beef that doesn’t come from cattle. Now if that isn’t dumb, I’m not sure what is. They advertise that it tastes just like beef. But it is made in a petri dish. It has a list of ingredients that I can’t pronounce. Now, no human beings have really
been tested of the long term effects of eating something for years that humans have not existed on before. But I would imagine, that in a few years, we will find out that there are some issues that developfrom this. I wouldn’t wish bad luck, or bad health on anyone, but... So this is where technology is getting us. We are eating make believe food, visiting with make believe friends, playing make believe football on a TV screen, and watching make believe reality shows on TV. I don’t watch them, but I have friends that do. Like the one where this gal makes out with all these guys for weeks, and then has to pick one of them for her husband. She will make someone a wonderful wife. Lol! Me, I’m going to wrap this up, get on that old Massey tractor with no cab, or muffler for that matter. And rake hay. It does have air. At least this morning. A brisk 20 mph wind at 50 degrees. That is real air! And when I am done today, I am throwing a genuine, ranch raised, ribeye steak on a grill. Cooking it medium rare, grabbing a cool beer that comes from farm raised grain, and enjoying the fruits of my labor. I hope you do too. We need your help. I got through this. I am techy! Later, Dean
OMDAHL: Let’s treat everybody like people... By Lloyd Omdahl The state legislative leadership recently announced that they were going to the people to get suggestions for the use of the interest running into the hundreds of millions generated by our $6 billion Legacy Fund. Thus far, the legislature has no consensus on the definition of “legacy” so we are not sure where the money ought to go. Consequently, they have been using it to fill the fiscal gap at the end of the legislative session. And that will be modus operandi from here to eternity if we don’t find a definition. Otherwise we will just piddle the money away. My first suggestion for the legacy search committee is to fund the new state effort to transform the incarceration of convicts into responsible lives. So far, the effort is so underfunded it is going to collapse in the long run without significant long run funding. As should have been expected, the primary motivation in the legislature for embarking on this new venture is reducing the prison population to save money. If anything good happens, they’ll take that, too. Last week, I quoted Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem as saying that
beside of thinking about the money, helping restore prisoners to society is “the right thing to do.” Wade Enget, state’s attorney in Mountrail County, added: “Sometimes you may not hear
prosecutors say this, but these are people. These are human beings. And if we want them to be good citizens of our city, our county, our state, then let’s start treating them like human be-
ings.” A break of compassion in a cloudy sky. Human beings need jobs; human beings need housing; human beings

OBITUARIES

After a short battle with cancer, Donovan M. Remsing, age 79, passed away peacefully in the presence of his family on August 18, 2019 at the Zumbrota Care Center in Zumbrota, Minnesota. Donovan was the youngest of five children born to Matt Remsing and Goldie (Brown) Remsing in rural Dunn County, North Dakota. He spent his childhood and most of his adult life
in the small community of Dunn Center, North Dakota where he helped his parents on the farm and performed lawn maintenance and snow removal services for the community. Upon his parents’ passing 15 years ago, Donovan moved to Minnesota to be near family as he settled into retirement. Donovan was a special guy with a heart of gold and a smile for everyone
he met. He was an accomplished painter, winning numerous awards through the Art & Ability – Celebrating Artists with Disabilities program in Rochester, Minnesota. He enjoyed bowling, dancing and wore out the soles of many shoes on his daily walks around the community. Donovan was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Bill Remsing; sister, Marilyn
(Riedlinger) Root and two brothers-in law, Ted Trinka and Armin Riedlinger. Donovan will be missed by his sister, Beverly Trinka of Zumbrota, Minnesota; brother Darrell (Joanne) Remsing of Mission, Texas; sister-inlaw, Lorraine Remsing of Thermopolis, Wyoming, six nieces and nephews, nine great nieces and nephews, and two greatgreat nieces and neph-
ews. A graveside memorial service for family and friends will be held at the Dunn Center Cemetery in Dunn Center, North Dakota at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 27, 2019. Remembrances and condolences may be shared with the family at www.stevensonfuneralhome.com. Stevenson Funeral Home & Crematory,
Lynn Alan “Boo” Greenshields, 61 of Gaylord, passed away on Saturday, August 24, 2019 at McLaren Northern Michigan in Petoskey after a courageous battle with cancer. Born in Dickinson, North Dakota on November 26, 1957, he was the son of Lemore and Rosella (Fandrich) Greenshields. Lynn grew up in Dodge, ND and graduated from
high school in Richardton, ND. Lynn was a cattle rancher with his brother, Robert on the Greenshields ranch in rural Dodge, ND for many years. In 1994 he married the former Susan Tapio. After leaving ranching, Lynn and Susan moved to Gaylord in 1998. In Gaylord, Lynn first worked at Sears. Later he worked as a carpenter and then a well driller.
An avid hunter, fisherman and golfer, Lynn really loved all sports. No matter how busy he was he always willing to drop what he was doing to help others with their projects. He’ll be remembered for his ability to engineer a solution to any problem. Lynn also loved kids and was often known to teach his nieces and nephews the value of a good prank. He was also a member of Gaylord Area Elks Lodge #2544 and the Knights of Columbus. Lynn is survived by Susan, his wife of almost 25 years; a step daughter, Kelly Beebe of Gaylord; a step granddaughter, Syd-
ney Borowiak of Miami, FL; his brother, Robert (Marilyn) Greenshields of Dodge, ND; sisters, Suzanne (Mark) Rummel and Roberta Fandrich, both of Richardton, ND, Carol (Claude) Wilmes of Bismarck, ND, Carmen (Richard) Sheldon of Menoken, ND, Diane (Terry) Friedt of Mott, ND, Patricia Greenshields of Fargo, ND, Marilyn (Neal) Wilmes of Golden Valley, ND and Stacey (Russ Kinzler) Rebel of Hebron, ND; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; a brother-in-law, Emil Fandrich; and a nephew, Mark Fandrich.
A memorial service will be held at 1 p.m. Thursday, August 29, 2019 at Gaylord Community Funeral Home & Cremation Service where the family will visit with friends beginning at 11 a.m. A memorial service will also be held at 3 p.m. Monday, September 2, 2019 at St. Mary Catholic Church in Richardton, North Dakota. Those who wish are asked to consider memorial contributions to Shriners Hospitals for Crippled Children. Please share your memories and personal messages with the family at www.gaylordfuneralhome.com

Hoeven announces General Atomics receives Certificate of Authorization
North Dakota Sen. John Hoeven announced that General Atomics, a tenant of the Grand Sky UAS Research and Development Park, has received a certificate of authorization (COA) to conduct beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) flights within 60 miles of the Grand Forks Air Force Base without a visual observer or a chase plane. Hoeven made the announcement at the Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Summit and Expo during a panel discussion he arranged at the event with U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff General David Goldfein and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Assistant Administrator Bailey Edwards. General Atomics BVLOS Waiver General Atomics’ COA is based on the BVLOS authorization that Hoeven previously secured for the Northern Plains UAS Test Site. The company will fly its MQ-9 Predator out of Grand Sky without a chase plane, relying instead on ground-based sense and avoid technologies, including the upgraded DASR-11 radar in Grand
Forks, which Hoeven funded through his role on the Senate Appropriations Committee. “This is a big step that will help us to advance UAS operations and comes as the result of our work to both fund the DASR-11 radar and secure authorization from the FAA. “Requiring a visual observer adds significant cost and complications to UAS operations and limits the ability of General Atomics, Grand Sky, the test site and others to develop this technology, which is why we’ve been working closely with the FAA to allow broader permission for BVLOS flights,” said Sen. Hoeven. “Now, General Atomics will be able to fly UAS without an observer or chase plane up to 60 miles from the air base. “This is a significant expansion of the company’s unmanned operations in the state, another important step toward safely integrating this technology into our airspace and further proof that North Dakota is the location of choice for UAS research, development, testing and operations. ”
National Park hosts astronomy festival Theodore Roosevelt National Park hosts the seventh annual Dakota Nights Astronomy Festival Friday through Sunday, Sept. 1. There will be park rangers, astronomers, and space enthusiasts of all types to explore North Dakota’s beautiful night skies in the park, a spokeman said.
Some daytime activities will be in the town of Medora, including model rocket building and launching, kids’ crafts and activities, “sun gazing,” solar system hikes, presentations, and hourly shows in Dickinson State University’s Discovery Dome in the park’s South Unit Visitor Center.

The Roundy family got a chance to get behind the wheel of some heavy equipment at the recent open house by the Dunn County Road Department in Killdeer.
HERALD/Brad Mosher
Dunn County Road Department shows off heavy equipment during open house By Brad Mosher The Herald It wasn’t a zoo, but there were bobcats, Deeres and lots of kids at the Dunn County Road
Department facility in Killdeer on Aug. 15. The department was holding an open house of their equipment and the Killdeer facility so local residents could get a close
up look at the heavy machinery the county puts on the road. For Erin Roundy, it gave her children a really good opportunity to see the equipment close up
and even get behind the wheel. For Lori Tabor, it was a chance to show off the department’s arsenal of road equipment to the people of Dunn County.

Fifth-ranked Hazen visits Cowboys in Killdeer Staff Report Killdeer finished up its scrimmage in Stanley Friday, getting its only chance to prepare for opening its season at home tonight against a former rival - the Hazen Bison. For Hazen, playing its old rival Friday at 7 p.m. may be the easiest game on its schedule. The Bison were moved into the AA division and have already made the top five in one recent poll of the AA Division.
Friday’s game at the Killdeer Sports Complex will also be the season opener for the Bison, before they move on to host Wahpeton Sept. 6 in their home opener. The Bison have a roster of 46 players this fall. They will follow the Wahpeton game facing Kindred (Sept. 13) before hosting Valley City (Sept. 20) and rival Beulah (Sept. 27). According to one set of preseason rankings, the Bison
will be playing ranked teams for most of the team’s schedule. Kindred is ranked third, while Valley City is fifth on the list and Beulah is fourth in the AA preseason rankings listed for the division on MaxPreps. Tough road ahead Looking ahead, the Cowboys will have some tough opponents on the schedule. The newcomers to the A Division Region 4 include New
Salem. A playoff team at the nineman level, the Holsteins have already logged a win over Tioga by a 43-15 margin. The Holsteins are ranked sixth in the state in their new AA Diviision home. Another necomer to the Region 4 is Shiloh Christian, which already seventh in the state rankings after a 34-6 win over Harvey-Fessenden-Bowden. The path to a playoff berth in
Region 4 has some very large obstacles. Two teams, Bowman County and Dickinson Trinity, made it to the semifinals. In addition, New Salem/Almont/Glen Ullin, Richardton/ Taylor and Shiloh Christian each made it to the nine-man playoffs in 2018. The Cowboys have approximately 22 players out for the team this year, the school’s athletic director said recently.

Dakota Datebook Judge Davies Integrates Southern Schools, Part 2 written by Merry Helm August 30, 2019 — Yesterday we talked about U.S. District Court Judge Ronald Davies, who nullified a Little Rock injunction to stop the first integration of a southern high school. Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus was determined to prevent integration on his watch. Saying he was trying to avoid bloodshed, he ordered 100 armed National Guardsmen to turn away nine African Americans who tried to enter Central High School on September 4, 1957. Faubus’s defiance of the judge’s court order was the first major test of the 1954 Supreme Court decision, Brown v. Board of Education. The judge’s family back in North Dakota knew little of what Davies was experiencing – except that he was trying a big case. Tom, his 18 year-old son, was just starting UND when he first realized something was odd. The student advisor assigned to him was none other than UND President Starcher. He also thought it strange that many fraternities were trying very hard to pledge him. When the motor on his car went out, he called his mom in Fargo to ask what he should do. She gave him his father’s number in Arkansas, and when Tom finally got through, his father told him, “This is really not a good time to talk. Just get it fixed, and I’ll pay for it.” “If you knew my father,” Tom says, “you’d know that something was really wrong if he told you to just get it fixed. He would’ve told you ‘go get a second job’ – not ‘I’ll pay for it.’” For the next two weeks, Davies and Governor Faubus were deadlocked, and the nine students still weren’t in school. On September 20th, Davies ruled that Faubus used the National Guard to prevent integration, not to prevent violence, and the governor was forced to withdraw the troops. The situation was now in the hands of the Little Rock Police Department. An agitated mob of 1,000 whites was outside Central High School, when the black students were hustled through a side door on the 23rd. The crowd learned the students were inside and, out of fear for their safety, the police had to evacuate them. President Eisenhower issued a special proclamation that evening, calling for opponents of integration to “cease and desist.” It didn’t work. The next morning, Little Rock’s mayor sent the president a telegram asking him to send troops to
The Dunn County Herald
maintain order. Eisenhower immediately federalized the 10,000 Arkansas National Guard and sent 1,000 members of the 101st Airborne Division to Little Rock. The African American students finally entered the school – under heavily armed guard – the next day, Although it would take years for the civil rights issue to cool off, a key step was accomplished in Little Rock. Davies could not abide intolerance. His inherent sense of right and wrong even led him to refuse a phone call from the President, because he wanted to avoid any sense of impropriety while he handled the case. Years later, son Tom – now himself a judge – suggested that his father go back to Little Rock to see how it had changed. The older Davies smiled and said, “I tell you what. I’ll give you a ticket to go down there, and when you get into the station, yell, ‘I’m Ron Davies’ son!’ If nothing happens to you, then I’ll go.” Judge Davies didn’t really believe the problem lay with the people of Little Rock – he felt outside agitators were to blame. And, when people pointed fingers at southern bigotry, Davies would remind them that North Dakota wasn’t without its own problems – that we couldn’t point fingers until we addressed racist attitudes toward our Native Americans. Finlander on the Warpath written by Merry Helm September 2, 2019 — The Bisbee Gazette published a story about an event that took place, on this date in 1911, titled “Finlander on the Warpath.” The article read, “Saturday evening a bunch of Finlanders loaded up on snoose and Hofman drop and then started in to carve each other in the usual way among those fellows. The affray took place in the alley in back of the telephone central office about ten o’clock in the evening and came near ending fatally for one of the participants. One fellow had several gashes cut about his head and neck,” the story read, “(with) one being within a half inch of the jugular vein. Nightwatch Hanlon happened to be near when the affair started and soon had the knife artist under arrest.” The story went on to say, “Judge Durston communicated with the states attorney and the fellow was to have had his hearing Tuesday, but when Hanlon went to feed his prisoner Monday morning, the cell was empty. A broken lock told the story of the fellow’s getaway. The lock was but a flimsy af-
fair and the fellows who lent their assistance found but little trouble in smashing it and liberating the prisoner. “It is said,” the article continued, “that the row started over a refusal of the injured man to buy more Hofman drop for his companions. According to his story he had bought 2 bottles during the day and they had made a concoction of the drug, snoose and water and had all gotten beastly drunk or crazy and when he refused to buy again the butting began.” Finland had gone through a rough time in previous years, suffering famine, persecution and pressure to join the Russian army. During the 1800s, many immigrated to other countries. In America, many found jobs as miners, because Finns were known as hard workers. It wasn’t surprising, then, that Finns were resentful and agitated when they were paid less than American-born workers. As the 19th century blended into the 20th, a number of these miners moved to an area on the North and South Dakota border that includes Ellendale in Dickey County. Prejudice toward Finns over here carried over from the old country. Other Nordics didn’t understand the Finnish language, and many considered Finns to be Mongolians. Also, the Finnish settlers’ belief in co-ops led many to consider them socialists or communists. North Dakota Swedes and Norwegians said Finns were clannish, drank too much and liked knives. Finns drank no more than other Scandinavians; in fact, they formed their own temperance movements here. Yet, prejudice toward Finns can be seen in the story from Bisbee, which ended with, “On the whole this kind of harvest hand laborers seem to be of the most undesirable kind. They don’t seem to care to work or if they do they’ll work but a day or two then come to town and loaf.” Getting back to what got the Finnish harvesters in trouble... Hofman drop or Hoffman’s drops. Norwegian Ole Rynning wrote an emigration guide in 1838 titled “True Account of America for the Information and Help of Peasant and Commoner.” In case of sickness during the voyage over, Rynning recommended taking along brandy, vinegar, several bottles of wine, raisins and prunes, sulpher powder, ointment for “the itch” and... Hoffmans drops. Hoffmans drops, along with hard liquor, was a popular contraband often used to sweeten the deal in reindeer trading. What were the drops made of, you ask? Ether: the anesthesia once used to put people under prior to surgery.

Sully at Whitestone Hill written by Merry Helm September 3, 2019 — More than 150 years ago, a man named Sam Brown wrote to his father, “I hope you will not believe all that is said of ‘Sully’s Successful Expedition,’ against the Sioux. I don’t think he aught to brag of it at all, because it was, what no decent man would have done, he pitched into their camp and just slaughtered them, worse a great deal than what Indians did in 1862, he killed very few men and took no hostile ones prisoners...and now he returns saying that we need fear no more, for he has ‘wiped out all hostile Indians from Dakota.’ If he had killed men instead of women and children, then it would have been a success, and the worse of it, they had no hostile intention whatever, the Nebraska 2nd pitched into them without orders, while the Iowa 6th were shaking hands with them on one side, the soldiers even shot their own men.” He was referring to the Battle of Whitestone Hill, which took place on this date in 1863 near present-day Ellendale. Brown was a 19 year-old translator at Crow Creek, where the Indian prisoners – 32 men and 124 women and children – were jailed. And where they later died. General Sully and General Sibley were in Dakota searching for a band of Santee Sioux who had participated in the Minnesota Uprising the previous year. They had one mission: trap the Santee between them and make them pay. Sully had come up empty and was returning home, when a scouting party led by Major Albert House discovered a Sioux encampment on a small lake below Whitestone Hill. Major House sent word to General Sully, moved in closer and discovered the camp was larger than he thought – approximately 1,000 people. The Indians sent a delegation of elders out to meet the scouting party. Vastly outnumbered, House negotiated for almost three hours. Historic accounts differ about whether any Santee were hiding in the camp. It is known that House demanded total surrender, but the elders refused. Historian LaDonna Brave Bull’s great, great grandmother was a 9 year-old living in the camp. She said the men were out hunting, and during those three hours, the women prepared to flee. Tipis were dismantled, and travois carrying children and provisions were quickly hooked up to ponies
and dogs. When the people saw Sully’s command arriving, they panicked and ran. Sully saw them leaving, sent others to cut off their escape routes and charged directly into the camp. The Indians scattered, but were cut off, and hundreds were slaughtered as the sun went down. The State Historical Society reports, “The light of the following day revealed a field of carnage. Dead and wounded men, women, and children lay in the campsite and in the ravine. Tipis stood vacant, or drooped in various stages of destruction. Camp equipment and personal items, tools, utensils, weapons, toys, and injured or dying horses and dogs littered the ground. Injured women protected babies and the little children. As the soldiers looked after the wounded and gathered the dead...other men were put to work...destroying the village and Indian possessions.” Brave Bull says 289 villagers were killed, most women and children. Some babies were found strapped to dogs that
had carried them away. One baby, who later visited the site as an old woman, was found trying to nurse from her dead mother. Brave Bull’s great great grandmother was shot in the hip but survived. The village was peaceful Ihunktonwan (ee-HOOnKtooN-wahN) or Yankton Sioux, not Santee. Two Bears, a chief of that village, was the strongest voice for peace around Fort Rice one year later. Brave Bull says that, for her people, Whitestone Hill is their Wounded Knee. She writes, “...it is said in my family that my great great grandma screamed in her sleep until the day she died.” Miss FarMoor written by Merry Helm September 4, 2019 — The Community Welfare Association was started in Fargo in 1927 to coordinate a community-wide effort to help meet human service needs.

need families; human beings need self-respect. North Dakota is ramping up interest and support for teaching and training the coming generation for the electronic age. Workforce experts estimate that 40 percent of U. S. jobs are in markets expected to shrink. So the curriculum for schools will have to be adapted. But school kids are not the only ones that will need education for

the information age. When we talk about workforce development we need to remember that the prisoners to be released will need to be equipped for those jobs as well. While we are at it, we should also think of those bright people working in menial jobs who could do much better re-equipped for the information age. Otherwise, they will be left for the unemployment line which, over the long run, is more expensive than training programs.
Governor Doug Burgum has initiated what he calls an “Emerging Digital Academy” that will provide North Dakotans with the kind of training they need to survive in the rapidly changing economy. This program is workforce development that could be applied to paroled prisoners and the underemployed. North Dakota Commerce Commissioner Michele Kommer noted that “all work is going to become more technical, regardless of the job we are in.

the world. All of these initiatives have potential for improving the lives of thousands of North Dakotans. In our rush to save money and feed the capitalist machine, however, we should also think of those on the margin who should be brought into the main stream of economic change. A light at the end of their tunnel. “It’s the right thing to do” and “Let’s start treating them like human beings.”

That type of technology will also replace some jobs, necessitating the additional skills and training for people that get displaced.” Not only are we underfunded for the programs related to the release of prisoners. Actually, the whole effort to keep up with the world of technology in North Dakota is underfunded and should be given serious consideration for the spending of legacy dollars. Our legacy will be determined by whether or not we keep up with

DAKOTA Continued from page 8
United Fund of Fargo in 1957, and then in 1964, it became the United Fund of FargoMoorhead. In the summer of 1966, employee Jim Backus came up with a jingle idea based on a combination of the towns’ names: FarMoor. The tune started with “Let’s give Far More, More than we ever gave before...” Renee Holoien was a pretty 17 year-old working for the organization that summer, and Backus decided she should be “Miss FarMoor,” the organization’s beauty queen – or as she puts it, “their mascot.” Holoien was trotted out for parades and also appeared on the local TV show, Party Line, with hostess Verna Newell. The title of Miss FarMoor was retired after Holoien’s reign, because the organization was renamed once again... the United Fund of Fargo-Moorhead-Dilworth. “Dakota Datebook” is a radio series from Prairie Public in partnership with the State Historical Society of North Dakota and with funding from the North Dakota Humanities Council.
