Local writer in Anthology Local writer Jean Fahlman is one of 29 contributors to an anthology about rural life and prairie people. The book "Cream Money" was launched May 23 in Regina by Driver Works Inc. Editor Deana Driver also wrote the book "Just a Bunch of Farmers" about Weyburn Inland Terminal. The Cream Money stories, both humorous and serious, shows the heavy reliance farm families had on their produce, especially the cream cheques. Driver, the book publisher, had worked with the people who were involved in the book and statue in Saskatoon, "Egg Money". Weyburn will soon have their statue, which includes a cream can, to honour the role pioneer women played in the development of the province.

More people working in Saskatchewan The number of people working in Saskatchewan hit an all-time high in May, beating the previous record set in June of last year. New job numbers released today by Statistics Canada show that there were 582,700 people working in

15062SPP00

the province in May, up 4,800 over last May. In May 2015, Saskatchewan recorded the lowest unemployment rate among the provinces at 4.9 per cent (seasonally adjusted), while nationally, the rate stood at 6.8 per cent. Saskatchewan has had the lowest unemployment rate in the country for 20 consecutive months. Immigration, Jobs, Skills and Training Minister Jeremy Harrison said the new employment record shows the diversity and strength of Saskathewan's economy, even with the slowdown in the oil sector. "Saskatchewan's economy is diversified with a broad base of goods and services which has set us apart from other provinces," Harrison said. "Our economic outlook remains positive - jobs are up, population is up, and other indicators like exports and wholesale trade are

making steady gains. "Employers in Saskatchewan continue to look for experienced staff. To address this issue and fill those vacant positions, our government has placed a priority on providing the resources to update skills and deliver training where it is needed." Other highlights include: • Full-time employment was up 5,500 jobs or 1.1 per cent from a year ago - a record high for the month. • Major year-over-year gains were reported for health care and social assistance up 5,400; accommodation and food services up 3,000; and educational services up 2,800. • Youth unemployment rate was 9.7 per cent (seasonally adjusted), lowest among the provinces, and below the national rate of 13.2 per cent. • Regina's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 4.4 per cent in May, the 4th lowest among major Canadian cities. Saskatoon's unemployment rate was 5.2 per cent, 7th lowest among major Canadian cities.

Impaired drivers face charges On June 6, the Weyburn Police Service received numerous calls regarding a single vehicle collision on Saskatchewan Drive. As the result of the investigation, it was learned that the vehicle, driven by a 20 year-old female, was travelling west when it lost control, striking

a tree. The driver sustained minor injuries and was treated by EMS. She has been charged with driving with undue care & attention. On June 5, while on patrol, a Weyburn PS member observed a vehicle to be speeding. While dealing with that violation, the member

became aware that the person had been drinking. As a result of that, the driver was processed for an impaired driving investigation and will be making a court appearance. On June 4, the Weyburn PS received a citizen complaint regarding a possible impaired driver. The suspect vehicle was located, and as a result a 59 year-old female driver was arrested for impaired driving. Also on June 4, the Weyburn PS received a complaint of a male person believed to be using the outdoors/parks as a washroom. The 53 year-old male was located and has been charged under the littering bylaw. This has been an ongoing issue with this person and the police are working with various other support agencies in an attempt to provide assistance to the person. On June 3, the Weyburn PS received a report of a vehicle having been intentionally damaged by being scratched. There are no suspects at this time. Also on June 3, the Weyburn PS received a complaint regarding a domestic matter that saw the victim being assaulted and threatened with a knife. As the result of the investigation, a 27

year-old male was located and arrested. He has been charged with committing an assault on the victim as well as assault with a weapon. He was released from custody on conditions and will be making a court appearance. On June 2, the Weyburn PS received a report from a concerned individual regarding the erratic driving behavior of a young driver. As the result of the investigation, a 16 year-old male has been charged with driving without due care and attention. On June 1, the Weyburn PS received a report of an intoxicated male person driving a medi-chair. A patrol was made and the driver located. The driver, a 49 year-old male, was arrested and has been charged with impaired driving. This is the second such offence for this individual. Under the provisions of the Criminal Code, a medichair is considered to be a motor vehicle for the purpose of these types of offences. In this instance, the police assert that the medichair was used merely as a convenient transportation device as opposed to a necessary mode of transportation due to a physical impairment.

School/life parallels

What possible good?

By Helen Waller I recently attended the graduation ceremonies at the local high school. It got me thinking about all the advice and speeches given to the graduates to motivate them and what I would like to say to the students if I were asked. That's when I realized that life is not all that different from school. The students would most benefit by knowing that they can already navigate the real world. Here's a few examples of some parallels. 1. The hall monitor who gave you an ODR (Office Discipline Referral) or ticket, is now the local police department. Just like hall monitors give you tickets for being late for class or running down the hallways, so do police officers. Certain behaviours are monitored in school and in real life. It makes life easier and safer for the rest of the world. They really do have your best interests at heart, even though you may get sick of hearing them say “put your seatbelt on” if you are only a block away from home. 2. The principal of the school is now your husband, wife or significant other. The last words you want to hear out of their mouths is “We need to talk!” The equivalent of getting called to the principal’s office nowadays is the same as getting a text from your wife saying “Get home!” You need to respond. They know you heard them. 3. The history professor is now your Grandma or Grandpa. I know history class can seem boring, down right irrelevant, at times. All this talk about the way things use to be can seem less entertaining than a Hollywood blockbuster, but believe me when I tell you that history is indeed relevant. It is the reason we got ourselves to where we are today. Hindsight is 20/20. 4. Students in your science class, whether it be biology or computer, are your Global Warming Research Scientists or Apple Care employers of the future. You don't need to understand what, or even why, they find science particularly interesting, or even understand it yourself. You just need to know it important that someone does the job they do. Students with a love for science are making our lives easier one app at a time. 5. Gym Class and the Jock. As a Canadian, I can't quite understand why we give the typical "Jock" such a hard time. I know you may not get to be the one to play on Team Canada, but who doesn't enjoy watching Team Canada win another gold medal while enjoying their favourite beverage? What else would you do on our cold winter days? 6. The Home Economics room was something that never particularly interested me. (Sorry for the trouble, Mrs. Riffel.) The thing is, as you get older and move out, you will appreciate a home-cooked meal more than ever. Once you are living away, surviving on Ichiban noodles and macaroni, you will wish you had paid more attention in your Home Economics class. 7. The janitor and your parents could be best friends. All of them are sick of you wearing your muddy shoes in their porch. The only thing is, once you live in the real world there is no one but yourself to clean up your mess. When you hit 18, all bets are off. Both the janitor and your parents no longer have legal responsibility to clean up after you. 8. The classic field trip is now the real world’s version of an unpaid vacation. As a student, schools generally footed the bill for world experiences that they felt every student should have the opportunity to experience. As a child, I went to places like the Science Centre, watersides or camping trips. Enter the real world after you graduate and everything changes. I still believe travel is one of the best forms of education, but the local Student Council will not be footing the bill for a trip to Europe, Cuba, let alone Vegas. You will have to both plan and earn your way to these places. (P.S. Vegas is something everyone should experience.) 9. The ‘Outcast’ student. We have either known one or been one. Do not worry if you do not fit in. The world already has what is has and is not perfect. It needs you to bring your perspective and talents. Why try to fit in when you were born to stand out? 10. Your favourite class will always be recess. Whether you spend a day at the beach or hang out with your friends, make time for fun. Life is meant to be enjoyed. Congratulations and best of luck to all the students graduating. Go out and make your mark on the world!

By Linda Wegner Hubby's been on a murderous rampage this past week and I totally support him; in fact, I have congratulated him for bagging approximately three dozen targets in just one hunting expedition. Lest you're wondering if we have abandoned all our Christian convictions, be assured that the objects of these manhunts are not human. Here's why. Gardening has its challenges, no matter where a person lives and those challenges certainly include pests unique to every location. While I've finally adjusted to the most of the

Five thousand desperate men, and perhaps as many women and children, had run on foot around the sea of Galilee to find Jesus. Though he and his disciples were near exhaustion from prolonged and intense ministry, the gospel of Mark tells us that Jesus "had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things." (Mark 6:34 ESV). It is interesting to note that the immediate result of Christ's compassion was teaching-not healing, or feeding. Later, the crowd grew hungry and Jesus fed the entire gathering with five loaves and two fish. This, too was an act of compassion, but in the mind of Christ the issue that moved him first and moved him most was the fact that the people were spiritually lost. The Gospel of John records the same miracle, including its aftermath. There we see that people found him on the other side of the lake the next day, hungry not for truth, but for bread. Jesus immediately exposed their motives and said, " . . . Truly, truly, I say to you, you are seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. [27] Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you . . ." (John 6:26-27 ESV). The people described here are just like us. By nature we pursue temporal needs and pleasures. We want full bellies. Eternal life and peace with God are far from our minds. Jesus counsels the people to "work for the food that endures to eternal life". Again, in a typically human way, the people want to know just what they need to do in order to get what they think is an endless supply of bread. "What works must we do to do, to be doing the works of God?" Jesus replies, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent", and he goes on to explain that he is himself the bread of life, and that they must eat his flesh and drink his blood in order to have eternal life. What the people miss is that the eating and drinking Jesus speaks of consist of hearing the words of Jesus and believing in him. The compassion of Christ is best expressed in the gospel: Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and was buried, and was raised again on the third day according to the scriptures. Believing this, and trusting in Christ alone, we eat the bread of life. Pastor Harley Porter, Gospel of Grace Fellowship

that He did. In fact, they're a food source for other animals, they break down dead and dying matter including dung and they're useful in recycling nutrients such as nitrogen through the food chain. While clearing areas of such materials they also spread seeds through their own waste. Have you ever felt useless, unlovely or totally rejected?

different bugs and beetles residing on the West Coast (as compared to those on the prairies), the presence of slugs continues to nauseate and infuriate me. Frankly I find them horrid creatures! They are slimy, elusive, destructive and to top it all off, they flaunt their presence by leaving a shiny trail of mucus behind them as proof they'd been there. As if I needed more proof than the tattered leafs of hostas, beans and head of lettuce that was almost ready to harvest. "Way to go", I told Hubby as I lauded his efforts, "go get some more of them!" That's when I realized God might have had a reason for adding them to the list of critters to create. I soon discovered

Shaving for a cause

City of Weyburn proclaims Native Prairie Appreciation Week The City of Weyburn is once again proclaiming the third week in June as Native Prairie Appreciation Week. Since 2011, the City of Weyburn has joined the province and other urban areas across Saskatchewan to celebrate native prairie, which will take place from June 14 to 20 this year. The Saskatchewan Prairie Conservation Action Plan (SK PCAP) has initiated the official proclamation of Native Prairie Appreciation Week (NPAW) in Saskatchewan since 1999. Provincially, NPAW is jointly proclaimed by Saskatchewan's Ministry of Agriculture and Ministry of Environment. Saskatchewan is the only location across North America that devotes a week to raising awareness about prairie conservation. "Native Prairie Appreciation Week is an important way for people to learn about prairie and how they can play a role in conserving our grassland ecosystems," explains Orin Balas, rancher and chair of SK PCAP. "It's important for the entire province to recognize the values of native prairie but one of the main things NPAW also tries to do is educate and engage with people on a local level as well, including local proclamations such as in Weyburn," Balas says. The week-long celebration includes a province-wide youth poster contest, information booths at numerous local urban markets, as well as a social media campaign. The week will conclude with the annual Society for Range Management Tour, open to the public, this year taking place on June 18 and 19, 2015 near Prince Albert National Park. Since 1998, the Saskatchewan Prairie Conservation Action Plan Partnership has brought together native prairie stakeholder groups, including organizations representing producers, industry, provincial & federal governments, non-government organizations and research and educational institutions under a common vision for prairie conservation in Saskatchewan. "SK PCAP has thirty partners all committed to prairie conservation," says Natasha Wilkie, manager. "NPAW is just one great example of the native prairie conservation activities we are involved in across Saskatchewan," she says, stating that SK PCAP is also very active across western Canada and beyond.

Seeding nearing completion Seeding is nearing completion in the province with 97 per cent of the crop in the ground, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture's Weekly Crop Report. Progress continues to be well ahead of the five-year (2010-2014) average of 73 per cent seeded for this time of year. The west-central region is reporting that 99 per cent of the crop is now seeded. The southwestern region has 98 per cent seeded; the southeastern, northeastern and northwestern regions have 97 per cent seeded; and the east-central region has 94 per cent seeded. Heavy frost late last week has caused damage to crops and producers continue to assess the damage; some re-seeding has occurred. Crop conditions vary across the province but most crops are in fair to good condition. Concerns about crop germination and emergence continue in many areas that have not received much rainfall since April. Flea beetles and cutworms are causing damage in some canola crops across the province. Some areas of the province received rain last week, ranging from small amounts to over an inch in parts of the southwestern and northwestern regions. Rain is needed in much of the province to help recharge the topsoil. Cropland topsoil moisture conditions are rated as three per cent surplus, 51 per cent adequate, 37 per cent short and nine per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as three per cent surplus, 41 per cent adequate, 40 per cent short and 16 per cent very short. Farmers are busy finishing seeding operations and controlling pests.

Students at St. Michael School gathered on June 8 to watch their principal, Mr. Dittrick, get his moustache shaved off. Dittrick promised the students that he would allow them to shave his moustache off if they raised over $1,000.00. The money raised will be donated to the people affected by the earthquake in Nepal. Mary Sidloski (left) and Dana Woodend, took turns shaving Mr. Dittrick's moustache, which he has had for over 40 years.

10 Weyburn This Week, Friday, June 12, 2015

Jr. Red Devils bring home silver

Reader responds to Arcticâ€™s progress What a very happy ending for a beautiful dog. Finding a great home after being at the brink of death due to an animal abuser. I just pray to God that the animal that is most likely currently being abused by the same man in Ontario finds the same happy ending. I have been told that a nationwide warrant for animal abuse cannot be issued under the current embarrassing legal system in Canada. Why not let a man live in every part of the country, abusing animals, before bringing him to justice? This is Canada, where everything seems to be "just the way it is." Canada is a fantastic place to live, especially if you are a criminal. Maybe the small percentage of the public that actually respect the enforcers of the law, could vote for some laws that would actually allow them to do their jobs. Jeff Milleker

The 2014 Perry Folk Fellowship Award was presented to Cheryl Rommann by Kevin Folk (back) and Colin Folk on June 8. The award is given to a Weyburn Golf Club patron who, through personal interactions, friendly demeanor and positive attitude, enhances the clubhouse atmosphere and experience for others. Rommann is the first female recipient of the award. Weyburn-born PGA golfer Graham Delaet received the first Fellowship Award in 2009. Other recipients include Chad Bailey in 2010, Barclay Charlton in 2011, Brad Huebner in 2012 and Don Sanders in 2013.

If the majority of the Rider Nation is correct, their beloved football team will be hosting a playoff game in November of 2015. In an online poll at RodPedersen.com, readers were asked in which place they think the Saskatchewan Roughriders will finish this season. The poll will remain open until Canada Day but so far the largest margin of respondents (45%) feels the football club will finish in second-place, which would carry with it an automatic berth in the Western Semifinal. I think we'd all take that in a heartbeat. In fact the breakdown looks like this: 1st - 35%, 2nd - 45%, 3rd - 12%, 4th- 5%, 5th - 2% You can put me down in the 12%, as I'm going on record this week predicting an 11-7 record for the Green & White, and a third-place finish. It sets the bar relatively low but it represents a modest improvement over last year's 10-8 mark and means the club would at least get an invitation to "The Dance". And what the heck's wrong with 11-7 anyway? The Riders' depth has been questioned after being raided in the 2014 off-season and the 18 games ahead will test how well it's been replenished. The Roughriders themselves set the bar surprisingly high just before training camp when General Manager Brendan Taman told a Regina radio morning show he feels his team could go 12-6. That could be the sweet spot. 12-6 could very well get you second-place because I think we're all anointing the Grey Cup champion Calgary Stampeders the West Division pennant right now. After a 15-3 campaign last year, they could well achieve 16 wins this time around. In the end of course, records don't really matter other than to determine playoff seeding. The Riders finished 10-71 in 2009 but finished first and hosted the Western Final for the first time in 30-some years. I've seen them finish better than that, but still have to go on the road for the postseason. But one thing's for certain: everyone's goal is to get to the 2015 Grey Cup at Investors Group Field in Winnipeg, no matter which road they take to get there. And now as we enter the second week of Roughriders training camp in Saskatoon, head coach Corey Chamblin is envisioning his team back in The Big Dance. "This looks like a team that has the makings of being a Grey Cup football team," Chamblin said confidently. "I'm very pleased with what I see. I'm pleased with the talent, I'm pleased with the way the systems are coming along and I'm pleased with where we are. Overall I think the staff is doing a good job, the coaches are doing a good job and the players are doing a damn good job of making themselves ready to play football games." Frankly the only knee-knocking question mark surrounding the football club is the offensive line, which was noted here last week. The team is working to fill holes at centre and at right tackle and brought in 2-time Grey Cup champion and former B.C. Lions centre Angus Reid as a guest coach to help speed up the cohesion in training camp. Veteran import Levy Adcock appears to be the one to replace Ben Heenan at right tackle while veteran non-import Dan Clark is ahead of Corey Watman in the battle to replace Dominic Picard at centre. So far the reviews have been good but the real bullets won't fly until this Saturday's preseason game against Edmonton in Fort McMurray. Kickoff in the Northern Kickoff is 8:00 pm Sask Time (on TSN and the CKRM Roughrider Radio Network). "Everything looks good right now," Angus Reid cautioned. "The thing is you're going to see a different looking offensive line from a scheme perspective. It's taking these guys a little longer to learn a new system, if you will, but what I will say is you got guys here who are willing to work their butt off and always try their best. They're not questioning or fighting the system and that's what you need. I think by the end of camp you'll see a well-oiled machine and I'm really excited to watch this group this year." Perhaps I should've asked the Richmond, BC product to vote on where he thinks the Roughriders will finish in 2015. Then truly, it would have been an Angus Reid Poll.
