National Grandparents Day 2013: Sept. 8 In 1970, Marian McQuade initiated a campaign to establish a day to honor grandparents. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter signed a federal proclamation, declaring the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparents Day. This day has been celebrated every year since in honor of our nation’s grandparents. The Census Bureau presents updates of statistics about their role and responsibilities in our society.

• 7 million - The number of grandparents whose grandchildren under age 18 were living with them in 2011.

• 2.7 million - The number of grandparents responsible for the basic needs of one or more grandchildren under age 18 living with them in 2011. Of these caregivers, 1.7 million were grandmothers, and 1.0 million were grandfathers.

• 594,000 - The number of grandparents responsible for grandchildren under age 18 and whose income was below the poverty level in the past 12 months compared with the 2.1 million grandparent caregivers whose income was at or above the poverty level.

• $45,526 - Median income for families with grandparent householders responsible for grandchildren under age 18. Among these families, where a parent of the grandchildren was not present, the median income was $33,627.

• 1.9 million - The number of married (including separated) grandparents responsible for caring for their grandchildren.

• 1.7 million - The number of grandparents in the labor force responsible for their own grandchildren under age 18. Among them, 338,000 were 60 years or older.

• 657,000 - The number of grandparents who had a disability and were responsible for their grandchildren.

• 1.9 million - The number of grandparents responsible for their grandchildren who were living in owner-occupied housing, compared with 844,000 that were living in renter-occupied housing.

• 505,000 - The number of foreign-born grandparents responsible for their own grandchildren under age 18. This contrasts with 2.2 million native-born grandparent caregivers.

• 2.1 million - The number of grandparents responsible for their grandchildren, who speak only English.

Another 255,000 speak another language, but speak English “very well;” 414,000 speak another language and speak English less than “very well.”

• 5.5 million - The number of children under 18 living with a grandparent householder in 2011. Nearly half, 48 percent or 2.6 million, were under age 6.

• 10 percent - Percentage of children in the United States living with a grandparent in 2012, totaling 7.1 million.

• 2.7 million - The number of children living with both grandmother and grandfather in 2012.

• 14,821 - The number of nursery, garden center and farm supply businesses with paid employees in the United States in 2011. The forget-me-not was named the official flower of National Grandparents Day by the National Grandparents Day Council.

• 59,458 - The number of musicians, singers and related workers employed full time, year-round, in 2011. “A Song for Grandma and Grandpa” was named the official song of National Grandparents Day in 2004 by the National Grandparents Day Council.

Tips to help parents/students start the school year strong PERU — It’s back to school once again.

But this hyped-up, commercial back-to-school rush to equip students with new garments and gear often gets in the way of the real preparations that parents and kids should focus on for a successful school year.

“Starting a new school year can be a daunting experience for many students, and failing to get off on the right foot can set the tone for the rest of the academic year,” Peru’s Sylvan Learning Center Daniel Callahan said.

“Parents need to take the right steps starting now to make sure their students are prepared to tackle new academic challenges with the right habits and daily routines. This includes trying not to be so consumed with showing up in the latest fashions; it’s not that important. That’s why Sylvan Learning has put together four simple tips for parents and four simple tips for children that can help boost student success in the new school year.”

Here are four things parents can do to help their children achieve better academic results: • Impose the two-week rule: With later bedtimes over the summer, children need to ease back into their school routine rather than having a sudden change

their first day of school.

• Reintroduce regular meal times: During summer months, kids tend to grab a snack several times during the day. Parents can start reminding students to get back into a three-meal-a-day schedule in order to regulate their system into the back-to-school mode. Nutrition is an important factor in academic performance, and eating a healthy, balanced breakfast and lunch keeps kids alert throughout the day.

• Family calendar: Time management is tricky for everyone, especially kids and teens, but planning is an important way to save everyone’s sanity. Having major deadlines, due dates, events and extracurricular activities in one place helps kids visualize their week, manage their time and stay on track.

• Don’t ditch good habits: If you and your child have established a good summer learning routine, when school starts try not to forsake all of the fun reading, writing and art activities that kept your child engaged all summer.

Here are four important things that students can follow to improve the academic quality of the school year.

• Organize: Organization is not overrated. Keeping notes, projects and reading materials in

logical order helps students find what they need right away, cutting down on time spent tracking things down, and allowing more time for actual studying.

• Take good notes: Yes, it does matter. Taking good notes helps keep kids’ grades up, especially in middle or high school. To boost note-taking skills, students should practice picking out the “main ideas” in conversations, news reports, or magazine articles.

• Concentrate: Staying focused is easier for some kids than others. Students need to do their best to avoid distractions in class.

This means keeping cell phones tucked away and being vocal if a chatty classmate is too distracting.

• Speak up: Students often can get tripped up by homework or test instructions. Students should know it’s OK to speak up if they don’t understand testing or homework directions. Students should also listen carefully and spend plenty of time reading directions.

Sylvan Learning also reminds parents that even with the best preparation many students still may need extra help to meet new academic challenges or to bolster study skills. Getting help at the first sign of trouble will prevent students from falling further behind as the year progresses.

Entertainment ‘Tamarack County’ He will pay.

One way or another, you’ll get back at that person who done you wrong. He’ll pay, whether now or in the hereafter, and you’ll see that it comes to pass. He’ll get his comeuppance. You’ll get your revenge.

But remember this: revenge isn’t always sweet, payback’s more than just a … well, you know, and in the new book “Tamarack County” by William Kent Krueger, vengeance has deadly consequences.

In Tamarack County, Minn., up near the Canadian border, winters can be hard on drivers.

Snowstorms happen, vehicles get stuck and help takes time. But when Evelyn Carter’s car was found empty on a well-traveled road, it raised concern: the road was freshly-plowed, the car wasn’t snowbound and Evelyn was nowhere around.

Though he no longer served as the county sheriff, Corcoran “Cork” O’Connor was called in to help look for the missing woman. As a lifelong resident of Tamarack County, he knew the area and he’d been acquainted with Evelyn and her husband, a former judge whom Cork considered to be one of the nastiest, least-likable men in the county. Also, as a licensed private investigator, Cork knew how to conduct a search.

And he knew that Evelyn Carter wasn’t the kind of lady to just disappear.

But that wasn’t the only mystery plaguing Cork O’Connor.

His younger Terri daughter, Schlichenmeyer Annie, came home early from the convent where she’d been living, and though she obviously seemed troubled, she was uncharacteristically mute. Stephen, Cork’s teenage son, was smitten with Marlee Daychild, a girl Stephen knew from school, so there was a bit of the unknown there, too.

As the search for Evelyn Carter expanded, strange things started happening around Tamarack County: Marlee Daychild’s uncle’s dog had been temporarily staying with the Daychilds, and was violently killed. Marlee’s mother, a bartender at a local casino, was hassled by a strange man, and followed. Judge Carter insisted there’d been a burglary at his house, but the item he claimed had been stolen was in his garage.

In his garage — covered with blood.

As all these incidents piled up, they just didn’t add up for Cork O’Connor. And as the snow swirled around Tamarack County’s roads, so did the danger …

No doubt about it: author William Kent Krueger is the Master of Misleads. He knows well how to send readers

down the wrong path, and what you’ll sleuth in this novel is no exception.

Indeed, “Tamarack County” is rich with wrong leads, interesting characters, dark terrain, cold nights and plotlines that will keep you turning pages. These things revolve around Krueger’s main character, Cork O’Connor, a part-Ojibwe sheriff-turned-PI who has a personal stake in what happens in the solving of crimes because he grew up with many of the people affected. That rings especially true in this mystery.

Yes, this book is the

latest in a series, but you can easily enjoy it without having read the others. So find it, read it, share it, but make note: lend “Tamarack County” to someone, and you may never get it back.

Terri Schlichenmeyer is a book reviewer from West Salem, Wis. She may be contacted at bookwormsez@ yahoo.com.

White urges student readers to enter ‘Letters About Literature’ Secretary of State and State Librarian Jesse White is urging students in grades 4 through 12 to enter the 2014 “Letters About Literature” contest, a national reading and writing competition sponsored by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress and the Illinois Center for the Book.

“Letters About Literature” invites students to read a book of their choice and write a letter to the author about how the book changed their life or view of the world. Student can enter on their own or through their schools, libraries or other youth organizations.

“Every year thousands of students in Illinois enjoy participating in this inspiring competition,” White said. “Illinois has had more entries than any other state for six years in a row. Anyone who has read these letters can see how literature inspires and touches the lives of our young people. I encourage all our students to take part in ‘Letters About Literature,’ and I hope their participation leads to a

lifetime of reading.”

There are three levels of participation: Level I for grades 4, 5 and 6; Level II for grades 7 and 8; and Level III for grades 9 through 12. One Illinois winner will be selected for each level and receive a $200 cash award.

Teachers of the winning students will receive a $100 cash award to purchase materials for their school library. Winners and teachers will be invited to an awards ceremony in Springfield.

The state winners letters will be forwarded for national judging. One national winner in each of the three competition levels will receive a $1,000 cash award, and one national honor in each level will receive a $200 cash award.

The deadline to enter the competition is Jan. 10 for Levels I and II and Dec. 10 for Level III. State winners will be announced in April 2013. For more information about the competition, contact Bonnie Matheis at 217-558-2065 or bmatheis@ilsos.net.
