An attempt to set up misde-
meanor charges for adults who
provide parties for under-age
drinkers failed to pass out of the
Senate State Affairs Committee
Jan. 23 at the S.D. Legislature in
Pierre.
The measure failed by one vote,
following sometimes emotional de-
bate, but backers vowed to keep
working on the bill to make it ac-
ceptable to lawmakers.
Sen. Larry Lucas, D-Mission,
said there currently is no defini-
tion for the term social host, but
is generally agreed that it refers to
someone who provides the location
but not necessarily the alcohol for
a party.
It is not a defense, said Lucas,
for the adult to say that he was not
present at the party.
Joyce Glynn, West River rancher
with her husband, Roger, related
the story of how their son, Michael,
lost his life following his 2006 high
school graduation and attending
the subsequent party where
under-age teens were drinking.
He died as the result of a one-ve-
hicle rollover where he was ejected
from the car.
That spring, Glynn said, 13
South Dakota Legislators met
with District and State FFA Offi-
cers at the 2013 South Dakota FFA
Legislative Breakfast and District
Officer Training hosted by the
South Dakota FFA Association on
Wednesday, January 23 and
Thursday, January 24 at the
AmericInn in Fort Pierre, S.D.
The purpose of the event was to
promote the FFAs mission of pre-
mier leadership, personal growth
and career success by bringing to-
gether South Dakotas governmen-
tal leaders with leaders of the
South Dakota FFA.
The event was hosted by the
2012-2013 State FFA Officer
Team, including: Taylor Leon-
hardt, Groton; Andrew Rausch,
Hoven; Ashley Tonak, Willow
Lake; Tyler Swan, Newell; Kelli
Garry, Lake Preston; and Savanna
Sperle, Reva. The SD FFA Ambas-
sadors, Darin Stoecker, Hoven,
and Liz Dahl, Beresford, also as-
sisted with the program. The State
FFA Officers conducted a break-

District FFA Officers and advisors
took advantage of the opportunity
to visit one-on-one with legislators,
sharing how local agriculture edu-
cation programs and FFA provide
hands-on, career-relevant experi-
ence for students.
During the evening of January
23 and following the Legislative
Breakfast on January 24, the
State FFA Officer Team facilitated
leadership training workshops for
the District Officers. Training fo-
cused on a variety of areas, includ-
ing: communication, personal de-
velopment, team growth, service,
career and technical education,
and agricultural advocacy. District
Officers also discovered what their
role is in the upcoming State FFA
Convention scheduled for April 14
- 16, 2013 in Brookings, S.D.

The Wall Ag Appreciation supper was held on Friday, January 25 at the Wall Community Center.
The event was sponsored by the Wall area business owners to show their appreciation to their
rural customers. Four hundred people registered for $1400 in Wall merchants gift certificated and
two Carhartt jackets. The Wall National Honor Society was the entertainment for the kids and Twin
Rivers played for the dance which began at 7:30 p.m. and lasted until 11:30 p.m.

Social host bill defeated in Senate committee
other teenagers died under similar
circumstances.
President Obama, noted Glynn,
has said that the first task of so-
ciety is to keep our children safe.
She questioned whether we are
doing everything possible to do
that.
She discussed the three compo-
nents to keep children safe as edu-
cation, legislation and enforce-
ment. It is clear, she said, that it is
illegal for anyone under the age of
21 to drink alcohol, and called this
bill another tool to be used.
With 5,894 minors charged with
possession and 416 misdemeanor
charges against adults, and 200 of
those dismissed, Glynn said we
are sending a bad message to
kids.
Glynn said the Attorney Gen-
erals office has voiced its support
for the bill, as well as the South
Dakota States Attorneys Associa-
tion.
Supporting testimony came
from the Concerned Women of
South Dakota.
However, the bills current lan-
guage was criticized by the State
Farm Insurance Company lobbyist
Dick Tieszen, and Roger
Tellinghuisen, lobbyist for S.D.
Trial Lawyers Association, as well
as several members of the commit-
tee.
Sen. Corey Brown, R-Gettys-
burg, questioned whether that one
additional law would have
changed anything that happened
the night that Glynns son died.
Sen. Larry Rhoden, R-Union
Center, also questioned whether
the law would be effective.
The bill died 5-4 and was moved
to the 41st day.
After the meeting, Glynn said I
really thought with the States At-
torney Association and the Attor-
ney Generals Association, the peo-
ple who have to enforce these laws
and know the laws inside and out
that are on the books, and whether
they are enforceable or not and
whether they are enough or not, I
really thought their backing to the
legislators would say you folks are
the expert in this field and so we
are going to rely on your recom-
mendation.
That didnt happen, she said.
However, Glynn said we will
never know if this would keep
someone from having a party at
their house.
She said she will continue to
fight for a law such as this.
The Wall High School produc-
tion of Orphan Trains earned a su-
perior rating at the South Dakota
One Act Play Festival in Brandon
on Saturday, February 2.
The historical drama brought
glowing comments from all three
judges who also awarded the cast
a record six individual acting
awards.
Receiving individual medals
were: Libbi Sykora, Analise Gar-
land, Ryder Wilson, Maddie Bauer,
Nicole Eisenbraun and Cartriona

Orphan Trains and Philip High

Rogue were among the eight Class
B schools receiving superior rat-
ings in a field of 14 plays.
Also included in the cast were:
Travis Brenner, Sterling Ellens,
Michaela Schaefer, Cody Harris,
Thomas Van Osdol, Austin
Huether, Emily Linn and Autumn
Deering.
Running lights and sound for
the Wall team were Andrew Ferris,
Nathan Patterson and Shanda
Rae Enriquez. The play was di-
rected by Ron Burtz and Kathy
Swan.
Walls plays have received supe-
rior ratings at the State Festival in
four of the six years. Last years
production -- Somethings Rotten in
the State of Denmark -- received
postivie critiques from the judges
but was disqualified because it ex-
ceeded the 45 minute time limit.
A healthy herd of about 800
bison can be found within Bad-
lands National Park, about 10
miles west of Wall, S.D.
The expanse of prairie grasses
and rugged spires of Badlands Na-
tional Park inspires reverence and
nostalgia, and these bison are an
integral part of Badlands history.
An iconic symbol of the National
Park Service, American bison can
still face threats even in these pro-
tected places.
On November 15, 2010, Keith
Jorgenson of Green Bay, Wisc., il-
legally shot and killed a mule deer
buck in Pennington County, S.D.
This started an investigation
which uncovered how Joseph Wil-
met, also of Green Bay, shot,
killed, and butchered a large bull
bison in Badlands National Park.
A cooperative law enforcement
effort with Pennington County
Sheriff s Department, South
Dakota Game, Fish, and Parks,
United States Fish and Wildlife
Service, United States Attorneys
Office, and National Park Service
resulted in Wilmet being sen-
tenced on October 5, 2012, and
Jorgenson being sentenced on Jan-
uary 7, 2013, for the unlawful tak-
ing of wildlife.
Badlands Superintendent Eric
Brunnemann stated, We salute
the agencies that investigated this
case, prosecuted and gave us these
Wisconsin man sentenced in
unlawful taking of wildlife
convictions. Two years and count-
less hours of investigative work ex-
emplifies the dedication of these
officers. This is government that
works.
Jorgenson disclosed that he and
Wilmet had been scouting for ani-
mals in the days leading up to the
November 15, 2010 discovery of
the buffalo and deer.
"The prosecution of these two
men should serve as a notice to
anyone involved in poaching in our
state. We take wildlife crime seri-
ously and we will continue our ef-
forts to work with our law enforce-
ment partners to investigate and
prosecute these offenses, said US
Attorney Brendan Johnson.
Badlands Chief Ranger Casey
Osback believes that solid police
work in the early phases of this
case resulted in this victory over
poaching in our national parks.
Jorgenson and Wilmet were also
found with carcasses from several
additional deer. They stated they
took the wildlife in the vicinity of
Badlands and the town of Scenic,
S.D.
The possession of traps or nets is
not allowable within Badlands.
The taking of wildlife is an illegal
act, as is [p]ossessing unlawfully
taken wildlife or portions thereof
(36 CFR2.2(a)(3)). The National
Park Service mission, as identified
in the 1916 Organic Act is charged
with the protection of natural and
historic objects and the wild life in
national parks. In most park units,
hunting is specifically called out as
a prohibited recreational use.
Hunting is welcomed on some fed-
eral and state properties. Respon-
sible hunters research regulations
and follow appropriate guidelines,
a practice Jorgenson and Wilmet
did not honor.
Jorgenson was sentenced to one
year of probation and a $1,000
fine. He was ordered to pay $25 to
the Victim Assistance Fund and
$2,500 in restitution.
Wilmet was previously sen-
tenced on October 5, 2012.
By working together, the various
land management and law en-
forcement agencies involved were
able to successfully work within
their differing missions to bring
these poachers to justice. Badlands
staff is extremely grateful that the
perpetrators of the buffalo slaugh-
ter were convicted.
Badlands is one of four mid-west
NPS units with American bison on
the landscape.
Brunnemann stated that Any-
one who has seen these majestic
animals knows they are looking at
our national history, our national
icon.

This is the first year for the
Battle of the Borders event. It
not only featured many of the Pro-
fessional Rodeo Cowboys Associa-
tion (PRCA) Wrangler National Fi-
nals Rodeo equine stars, but 30 of
todays current top riders, includ-
ing many who just competed in the
Wrangler NFR.
The event matched up stock con-
tractors from the U.S. and Canada
to settle bragging rights as to
which country raises the best
bucking stock.
Five contractors from both the
U.S. and Canada had four horse
teams each composed of three
young colts aged six or under, plus
one experienced bronc from their
top string.
The battle consisted of a long-go
ride during which 30 top cowboys
rode inexperienced colts. The top
10 riders by score from the long-go
advanced to the short round and
paired up with some of the best
horses on the PRCA circuit includ-
ing Sutton Rodeos Chuckulator,
the 2012 PRCA Horse of the Year.
The winning horses earned a
spot in the World Futurity Finale
which is held in Las Vegas during
the Wrangler NFR.

Now its getting more interest-
ing. HB1087 the school sentinel
bill resulted in a lively and long de-
bate. I supported this bill because
of the local control and the flexibil-
ity of allowing more isolated
schools to take advantage of this
with the larger districts that al-
ready have resource officers to just
keep on going on as they are.
No teacher or school employee is
forced to arm themselves. I could
go on forever but e-mail or call me
if you would like to get into more
detail on why I voted like I did or
come to the crackerbarrels in
Rapid on the 2nd, or in Edgemount
and Hot Springs on the 9th.
I went against HB 1113 because
no one could say that if it would
not apply to all your social media
uses that could lead to a fishing ex-
pedition or just plain being too
nosey.
On todays calendar HB 1126
has stirred an amazing amount of
controversy. It would repeal mas-
sage therapy licensing. As we get
into it, it appears that the head of
the licensing board was the prob-
lem, so my position is fix it. We
dont need to throw the baby out
with the bath water.
Of course SB 70 the judicial re-
form bill will eventually work its
way to the house, so let me know
what you think of that one. We
have education funding bills com-
ing up this week in committees
and of course that will also spark
a lot of conversation.
Please keep in touch.

I was born on a livestock farm
and have cared for animals for as
long as I can remember.
We had cats, dogs, horses, and
cows. They all needed to be fed,
watered, and cared for and most
times that meant I took care of
those animals before I was fed, wa-
tered and cared for!
So, from an early age, my father
and grandfather instilled in my
siblings and I that we had a moral
and ethical responsibility to care
for our animals.
One summer, my Dad came to
me with a glass of water and won-
dered if I needed a drink. I was hot
and thirsty, but looking at this
murky, discolored water with some
chunks floating in it was not what
I was looking for and turned it
down.
My Dad told me he had just
taken that water from the cattles
water tank and wondered, If you
wont drink it, why would you
make the cattle drink it? Lesson
learned!

An Ear to the Ground
bate on issues like gun control and
animal welfare because I see them
as the same discussion.
Unless we have engrained moral
values, is it productive to attempt
the legislation of behavior?
We have a whole myriad of laws
and rules that try to deter humans
from hurting or abusing other hu-
mans. Many of these laws are
felony convictions and in the most
severe cases, the death penalty is
invoked. With all these penalties
(deterrents) in place, our prisons
still house people that do not value
human life.
I am confident our ranchers and
livestock producers share my core
values on the animal stewardship
and husbandry practices required
to be in the livestock business
these days.
Proper nutrition, housing, vet-
erinarian-approved animal health
protocols and technology may be
the tools they use today, but it
comes right back down to the fact
that they care about the well-being
of their animals.
South Dakotans cannot and
should not condone any form of
abuse to the animals we have in
our care and custody regardless if
they are a farm animal, work ani-
mal, companion animal, or a pet. If
simply putting additional or more
severe laws on the books changes
human behavior to other living
things, controlling bad things in
our world would be easy. So, I ask
again, can society legislate moral-
ity, core values, or behavior?
We need to respect all life and
there in is our challenge, I believe.
The first bill of the 2013 South
Dakota Legislature, signed by Gov.
Dennis Daugaard, was HB1066,
which continues the current tax
rate on tourism-related businesses
during the June-September pe-
riod.
The tax on the gross receipts of
most tourism-related goods and
services was one percent until it
was raised to 1.5 percent for two
years in 2009. A two-year exten-
sion was granted by the Legisla-
ture in 2011 and was due to expire
this coming June 30.
HB1066, which passed the state
Governor Daugaard signs first
bill of lawmaking session
House 64-4 and the Senate by 33-
2, makes the 1.5 percent rate per-
manent. The measure had wide
support from the states visitor in-
dustry.
Money raised by the tax is used
to promote tourism, and the lions
share of it is paid by out-of-state
visitors, Gov. Daugaard said.
Im heartened by the South
Dakota visitor industrys accept-
ance of this revenue source, which
paves the way for increased
tourism spending and boosts the
entire state economy, the Gover-
nor said.
The Public Safety Improvement
Act, perhaps the most comprehen-
sive bill this session, has been ap-
proved by both houses and now
goes to the Governor for signature.
The bill was developed this past
year by over 400 South Dakotans
who are involved in various as-
pects of law enforcement.
It parallels my belief that we
need better methods to address a
growing prison population.
It increases penalties for violent
and career criminals and provides
mechanisms to hold other offend-
ers more accountable. The bill is
not perfect but represents a good
start.
Those of us in the tourism busi-
ness were happy to see the cent tax
for co-op marketing move to per-
manent status.
The data positively shows that
this investment generates more
revenue for our state and that 73
percent of it is paid by out-of-state
folks.
The Hot Springs community has
some dedicated volunteers who
have spent the past year develop-
ing a progressive plan for expand-
ing services to veterans and try-
ing to get an audience with the VA
Secretary to present it.
The planets aligned and thanks
to the efforts of our Congressional
Delegation and their staffs, five
members of the Executive Com-
mittee, our Governor and our three
Congressional Delegates met with
him for an hour and a half. I un-
derstand the presentation went
well and now the ball is in the Sec-
retarys hands.
Uranium continues to be the
subject I hear about the most in
my emails.
I spent time with three people
from DENR this past week to get
more of my questions answered.
While it is far from simple, an
overall picture is starting to
emerge.
The three agencies; NRC, EPA
and SD DENR all have assigned
areas of responsibility. NRC has
permitted a number of other ura-
nium sites and has expertise in
monitoring compliance with the
regulations and the power to en-
force them.
EPA has responsibility for Class
III and Class V injection wells and
has a proven track record of en-
forcing regulations. Both of these
agencies will require adequate
bonding before any mining opera-
tion can be started.
SD DENR is processing permit
applications for ground water re-
lating to volume used and a dis-
charge plan for treated mine waste
water. If all permits are issued,
DENR will come on board to work
closely with the federal agencies in
ensuring all regulations are fol-
lowed.

Marvin Maude
Marvin Maude grew up on a
ranch near Scenic as the oldest of
four children of Walter and Gen
Maude. He was active in 4-H while
growing up. Marvin stepped in as
the 4-H leader for the Rangers 4-H
Club at the age of 17 to prevent the
club from closing down. It began a
lifetime of volunteer work that re-
volved around helping kids im-
prove themselves.
In 1968, Marvin maried Mae
Scism. They raised three daugh-
ters on the ranch near Hermosa,
S.D. Marvin has contributed thou-
sands of volunteer hours to 4-H
programs in Pennington and
Custer counties. He and Mae
hosted livestock and horse judging
schools for more than 15 years. To-
gether they served as leaders of
the club. Marvin retired as a 4-H
leader after serving for 42 years.
His volunteerism continues with
the Western Junior Livestock
Show. Marvin has seved as a direc-
tor for the Western Junior Live-
stock Show for more than three
decades and he conintues as a di-
recto today. Marvin also served as
president for the organization.
Marvin has worked with the
Black Hills Stock Show both as a
volunteer and as a contract em-
ployee. He was instumental in
helping establish the Youth Day
with the Black Hills Stock Show
and assisted with putting together
the livestock juding contest up
through last year. He can also be
found running the Bobcat loader
helping take down panels and in-
stall tie-stalls to make the transi-
tion from the horse weekend activ-
ities to the beef cattle shows.
When not busy with ranching,
Marvin contracts goats for goat
tying at 4-H, high school, and Lit-
tle Britches rodeos. He is also a
local inspector for the South
Dakota Brand Broad and keeps
busy during fall shipping.
Marvins crowning achievement
is passing his volunteer spirit on to
all three daughters. Julie and
LeAnn are active 4-H leaders in
Custer County while Lori has vol-
unteerd in multiple organizations
during her career. The learned
early that if you are going to be
part of something, you need to give
back of your time and leadership.
Dale Hendrickson
Dale Hendrickson was born
March 9, 1933, in Buffalo County,
Neb., but moved with his family to
the Riverton, Wyo., area when he
was eight.
After graduating from high
school in 1950, he worked on a
Wyoming ranch until 1953, when
he went into the Army, serving two
years in Germany.
BHSS Foundation honors western pioneers
After his military service, Dale
received his doctor of veterinary
medicine degree from Colorado
State University in Fort Collins in
1962 and went to work for the
state of Wyoming and a private
practice in Casper, Wy. In 1964, he
joined Norris Vet Clinic in Rapid
City and in 1969 started his own
veterinary clinic. In 1979, he
opened the Animal Clinic in Rapid
City. He retired after 40 years of
service on January 1, 2003. As his
old friend, Lyndell Petersen said,
He was one of the few large ani-
mal veterinarians in the area who
was willing to go any place almost
any time to serve his clients.
Dale helped found the Black
Hills Roping Club and is a past
president. He is also a member of
the Western South Dakota Bucka-
roos. He has also supported the
Rapid City Kennel Club and its
major dog show, along with volun-
teer work with 4-H and FFA and
the Western Junior Livestock
Show in Rapid City.
Dale lives on a small ranch near
Caputa with his wife Alice. They
have three grown children, Shelly
and Mark Middleton, Rob and
Jody Hendrickson who have two
girls-Ollie and Scout, and Roy and
Christie Hendrickson who have
two children, Seth and Ari.
These days you can probably
find Dale at the Caputa Coffee
Shop talking over the old days.
Harold Delbridge
Harold Dean Delbridge was
born and raised in the Howes area.
He married Karen Smith on Janu-
ary 16, 1966, and they went to
work for the Bar VO ranch at
Quinn. In the fall of 1967, Karens
father needed help on his ranch so
they moved there to help him.
After her father passed away in
1968, her brothers took over the
operation of the ranch and Harold
and Karen moved to his grandfa-
ther Kellogs place south of Union
Center, where they ranched for the
next eight years.
Harold left the ranch in 1976 to
attend Bible College in Cleveland,
Tenn. He studied there until 1979.
At that time they moved to Coal
Springs and began pastoring a
church there. This was Harolds
first pastorate and they were there
until 1985 when they moved from
Coal Springs to the Prairie Bible
Community Church where he pas-
tored for 23 years. Three years ago
he started the Stoneville Country
Church where he is still pastoring.
Harold has also pastored the Elm
Springs Community Church since
1987.
Harold started rodeo announc-
ing and auctioneering in 1983.
Dave Lensegrav encouraged him
to go to auctioneer school at Bis-
marck, N.D., where Truman Kon-
sile had the River Basin Auction
School, an auctioneering and rodeo
announcing college. Harold and
Les Lensegrav went to that school.
When they came back they started
the Open Meadow Auction Service
which they operated for 13 years.
In 1984, the Faith Stock Show con-
tracted Harold to announce their
rodeo. That was the rodeo that
Truman Konsile had announced
for years, and he said, Isnt that
life, you train somebody and they
take your job. Harold announced
Faith Stock Show for 24 years. His
favorite part of announcing rodeos
was encouraging the young people
in the sport. In the year 2000,
Harold and Karen had the oppor-
tunity to go to the National Finals
Rodeo and had the pleasure of
watching the final performance. In
the saddle bronc event there were
four young cowboys that Harold
had watched grow up. That was a
very satisfying experience for him.
Harold said, The greatest fun I
had was young peoples rodeos. En-
couraging the young cowboys and
cowgirls.
Harold and Karen have lived at
Red Owl for the past 18 years.
Since 1979, Harold has had a full
time ministry. In his spare time he
day works for ranchers in the area.
He says this has been a better
ministry than the pulpit. It has af-
forded him the opportunity to min-
ister at weddings and funerals.
Being a minister in the rodeo an-
nouncing field, watching the cow-
boys and cowgirls grow up, has led
to many weddings.
In reminiscing, Harold tells of a
wedding he was to perform. When
he arrived to perform the wedding,
the bride had forgotten to bring
the marriage license. When Harold
asked her what she planned to do
about that, she told him that they
would be at the rodeo next week.
They could go ahead with the wed-
ding today and then they would
bring the marriage license and
their witnesses and get it signed at
the rodeo, one week later. Things
like that only happen in cowboy
country.
One of the most challenging
points in Harolds life was while he
was pastoring at Coal Springs. He
went there in June, and in August
performed his first wedding. Two
years later he had to bury that
couples 18 month-old-daughter.
He said, It lets you know the
power of God, how you get through
some of those deals.
Harold is an active member in
several organizations in the area.
The Catalyst Club in Rapid City,
South Dakota Stock Growers,
South Dakota Farm Bureau, Fel-
lowship of Christian Cowboys, and
Central Meade County Commu-
nity Center Board.
Harold had a funny story to tell
on himself. He was co-announcer
at the South Dakota Rodeo Finals
in Sioux Falls. His job was to plug
the sponsors while horseback in
the arena. A bareback rider had
just completed his ride, so Harold
rode in to announce the sponsor of
the bareback riding and the bronc
came alongside Harolds horse and
started bucking. In trying to pull
his horse up, hang on to the micro-
phone, and juggle a handful of pa-
pers, things got away from him.
Papers all over the arena floor. The
audience loved it and have proba-
bly never forgot it, and the other
announcer had a big time with it.
But, like Harold said, at least he
didnt fall off.
Having retired from his rodeo
announcing career, Harold looks
back on a couple highlights of that
career. One was when the Wall Re-
gional High School Rodeo Club
gave him a belt buckle when he re-
tired after announcing their rodeo
for 23 years. Another was when
the Faith Stock Show also gave
him a buckle after 24 years of an-
nouncing their rodeo. Harold said,
It really lets you know how much
people appreciate your work.
Harold and Karen have four
children, two boys and two girls,
and 12 grandchildren. Arlen, Black
Hawk, Chad, Cheyenne, Wyo.,
Amanda, Anchorage, Alaska; and
daughter, Candace, Thunder
Butte.
In looking to the future, Harold
said that in his ministry he wants
to prepare people for the life
ahead. By that, he means he wants
them to come to know the power of
God and the relationship they can
have with Him.
When we look back over the
years at Harolds reputation, it
show us that he has given above
and beyond of himself, assisting
spiritually and physically, a large
number of families in our end of
the state. I got the feeling from
just visiting with Harold, that to
be ministering to and working
with the children and grandchil-
dren of those parents he minis-
tered to and worked with years
ago, gives him a real feeling of
thankfulness and satisfaction. In
all fairness to Harold, I must tell
you that in this short presentation
it is not possible for me to paint a
complete picture of his accomplish-
ments. But for just a normal look-
ing cowboy, he has sure made an
impression in our communities.

I often find myself thinking
longingly of warm places about
this time of year. I think of deserts
and tropical islands and those
lucky countries in the southern
hemisphere currently enjoying the
long days of summer. I know our
time will come, sooner rather than
later, but the cold winter days can
go so slowly.
If you too are yearning for warm
summer days, perhaps we can
offer you a small mini-vacation at
the Library. We have lots of books
about summer and warm places.
Id like to call out special notice
to In a Sunburned Country by Bill
Bryson.
This is a wonderful book that is
part travelogue, part comedy, part
encyclopedia about the authors
visit to Australia.
Australia is a country that also
enjoys its designation as an island
Wall Community Library news
continent. The people are warmly
welcoming and the history is var-
ied and interesting.
Perhaps one of the most striking
parts of Australia is its peculiar
wildlife. Australia has some of the
most lethal animals found on the
planet.
Bryson delights in exploring the
land, including its cultural and
natural history. His delightful, en-
gaging writing style will have you
laughing along with him and you
wont even realize how much you
are learning about the land down
under.
And just perhaps, you will feel a
little bit warmer when you finish.

Sounds like everyone made at
least one trip to the Black Hills
Stock Show last week. The
weather was pretty good for get-
ting out and about.

you dont count doing his taxes.
Just one of lifes necessary evils.
Lonnie and Teri Ann Arneson at-

power outage, hope the game
ended to your satisfaction.

It occurred to me several years
ago that while 80 to 90% of my de-
cisions had turned out to be quite
positive, there was still the other
10 to 20% that did not have such a
great outcome. I could see there
was room for improvement, and be-
came quite motivated to learn how
to make more effective decisions. I
began to seriously study how other
people make their decisions. look-
ing for any tool or system that I
could use to aid me in becoming a
better decision maker.
Over the years, I have adopted,
adapted and applied a number of
tools and systems that have re-
sulted in making better decisions.
I am eager to share a couple of my
discoveries with you.
First of all, I have learned never
to jump into making a decision,
without first taking time to gather
all the facts. I must do my due dili-
gence, to make sure there is noth-
ing hiding under the rocks, if I am
to make really good decisions.
Secondly, I have realized the ad-
vantage of looking at the issue from
a number of different perspectives.
If a decision will affect others-and
most of them do-I make it a point
to get their opinions, thoughts, and
suggestions regarding the decision
I have to make. The smartest thing
I have learned to do is trust my
wife and daughters' intuition. I re-
ally do believe that females have
been given a special gift of intu-
ition, and it is my job as a husband
and father to listen to their gut
feeling about things. Honestly,
trusting Vicki's, Tasha's, and Elie's
intuition has never failed me yet.
Making well thought out deci-
sions and taking action on them is
much easier, and the outcome more
profitable, when I have the confi-
dence and assurance that comes
with
taking all the facts into considera-
tion and engaging others in the
process. Being humble enough to
hear and listen to what others
share may be a bit difficult at
times, and yet it is so vital to hav-
ing success in the decision making
process.
Take time to apply these simple
strategies to your decision making
process and you too, will be empow-
ered to make even better decisions
than you did before.

Posted By Pastor Ricky Kurth
Jesus Christ was declared to be the Son
of God according to the spirit of holiness, by the
resurrection from the dead (Rom. 1:3,4).
What does it mean that the Lords resurrection declared Him
to be the Son of God according to the spirit of holiness? Well,
have you ever heard it said that there is a difference between
the letter of the law and the spirit of the law? When you drive
66 m.p.h. in a 65 m.p.h. zone, you are breaking the letter of
the law, but you are not breaking the spirit of the law. The spirit
of the law is for you to drive safely and responsibly. This is
why most police officers will not ticket you for going one mile
per hour over the speed limit.
The letter of the law of holiness is expressed well in
Proverbs 17:15:
He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condem-
neth the just, even they both are abomination to the
Lord.
But isnt that what God did at the Cross, when He con-
demned that Just One (Acts 22:14) and justified wicked sin-
ners such as ourselves? In so doing, He surely broke the letter
of the law of holiness.
Or did He? For those who would argue that God was not
acting in accord with the law of holiness, we would reply that
when God the Father took your sins and placed them on the
Lord Jesus Christ at Calvary, He justly condemned the One
who was made wicked (II Cor. 5:21). Then when you believed
the gospel, God took His righteousness and put it on you, en-
abling Him to justify the ones who were made the very right-
eousness of God in Christ (II Cor. 5:21). The resurrection of
Christ then proved that this was also done in perfect accord
with the spirit of holiness, for Christs sacrifice surely satisfied
the just demands of Gods righteousness.
If you havent yet trusted Christ as your Savior, however,
God has not yet given you the righteousness that is available
only in Christ. Speaking of the Lord Jesus, the Apostle Paul
says,
In whom we have redemption through His blood,
the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His
grace (Eph. 1:7).
The forgiveness of sins purchased by Christs blood is only
available in Him. If you are not in Christ, you are still in tres-
passes and sins (Eph. 2:1). Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and thou shalt be saved (Acts 16:31).

Richard Wahlstrom

In Europe, the financial crisis
drags on. Chinas economic growth
has slowed from wow to ho-
hum. Here at home, weve seen
heated political debates over taxes,
spending and deficit reduction.
Taken together, these factors have
created a fog of uncertainty that
has left many investors in the dark
about their next moves. But is this
fog really impenetrable or can
you, as an individual investor, see
through it to a place of clarity?
To do so, you first need to realize
that while the events mentioned
above are certainly not insignifi-
cant, they also arent the key de-
terminants of investors success.
While these types of stories domi-
nate the headlines, they also tend
to obscure some of the factors that
frequently do play a bigger role in
the investment world. And right
now, these factors are actually
somewhat encouraging.
Consider the following:
The economy continues to
grow. The economy isnt going
gangbusters, but it is growing.
And thanks to historically low in-
terest rates, consumer debt pay-
ments have dropped significantly,
leaving people with more money to
spend elsewhere. Typically, this
higher spending tends to con-
tribute to future economic growth.
Corporate earnings remain
solid. Many companies have
shown strong earnings over the
past couple of years and earn-
ings tend to be a key driver of stock
prices. When their earnings are
strong, companies may use some of
the profits to repurchase shares of
their own stock, thereby reducing
the number of shares held by the
public which means that even if
profits remain the same, the earn-
ings per share should increase.
Stocks are still attractively
priced. As measured by the price-
to-earnings ratio (P/E), stocks are
still priced relatively well. While
no one can predict stock market
performance, this may be a good
buying opportunity.
Of course, all these indicators of
todays investment environment
can change over time; at some
point, they may well be not so pos-
itive. But if you truly want to see
through the fog of uncertainty that
always develops with unsettling
political or economic news, youll
want to follow these basic, all-
weather guidelines:
Stay diversified. A diversified
portfolio can help protect you from
the harshest effects of market
volatility. (Keep in mind, though,
that diversification, cant guaran-
tee profits or protect against loss.)
Rebalance your portfolio. Over
time, your investment mix can
shift, even without your intent.
For example, some of your hold-
ings can appreciate so much in
value that they take on a greater
percentage of your portfolio than
you had intended. Thats why its
important to periodically rebal-
ance your portfolio so that it fits
your investment objectives and
risk tolerance.
Stay focused on the long term.
When confronted with short-term
market fluctuations or scary head-
lines, many people overreact and
make ill-advised investment deci-
sions. You can avoid these behav-
iors by staying focused on the long
term.
Invest in companies that are
charting their own course. When
investing for the equity portion of
your portfolio, look for companies
with the ability to prosper in all
economic environments.
With patience and perseverance,
and by focusing on the key factors
outlined above, you can navigate
the fog of uncertainty and concen-
trate on your long-term invest-
ment goals. So dont be afraid to
set sail.

ranch at New Under-
wood where they
ranched until 1956. Ed,

man during the course of his life
which included sales in a number
of businesses-including field su-
pervisor in several sales related
businesses. The family moved to
New Underwood in 1972 where Ed
was a field supervisor for Insta-
Gro International. In 1979, the
family moved to Spearfish where
Ed practiced as a reflexologist
until his retirement as he loved
helping people. Ed loved animals
and raised chickens, geese, goats
and turkeys. He was also an avid
gardener he was a master at
growing all things; he loved to care
for the garden and made certain it
was well cared for. He was gener-
ous with his produce as he shared
the fruits of his harvest with all
family and friends.
Ed was most proud of his six
children and loved spending each
and every holiday and family
event with his family. He was hap-
piest when the children and grand-
children were at their home for the
various family gatherings over the
years. He also loved hunting and
fishing with his son, grandchildren
and other family mem-
bers. Ed and Lucille cel-
ebrated their 64th wed-

cember 21 with family
present for the celebra-
tion.

our Lady Eagles.

On Thursday, January 31st the
White River Tigers came to Wall
for a double header. Junior Varsity
started off the day with a loss of 29
to 35.
Josie Blasius lead the team in
scoring with 10 points as Monica
Bielmaier and Elle Moon each
added four points as well.
Katy Beilmaier lead the team in
rebounds with six and Blasius
helped by adding five.
"Although we did not win the
game, the girls were put into new
situations against White River's
defense, and it was great to see
how the girls adjusted to it. It is a
sign they are ready to take their
skills to new levels," added Coach
Kier.
Huether, Katy Bielmaier, all with
two, and Elle Moon adding one.
Katy Bielmaier was the team's
leader in rebounding with six, and
her three teammates, Linn,
Huether, and Steffen, all helped
with getting four rebounds a piece
as well, which helped the Eagles
out-rebound Hot Springs 29 to 24.
"The girls played overall a
great game. Each player on the
team contributed in one way or an-
other, which is the reason the girls
were successful.
It is great to look over the stats
and see about even statistics
across the board, and that is a sign
of a deep solid basketball team,"
said Coach Kier.

The Varsity Lady Eagles were
successful for another game
against the Tigers with a score of
46 to 34.
Autumn Schulz had a huge im-
pact on the game by being the lead
scoring between both teams with
16 points, and Sadie O'Rourke also
added nine points to her team's
total.
The Lady Eagles out rebounded
the Lady Tigers 34 to 24.
Blasius had eleven rebounds,
and Kaitlin Schreiber had seven
and Schulz had six.
"The gym was a packed house,
which made the gym loud with
maybe some distractions. How-
ever, the girls stayed very focused
and did not let anything impair
their vision of beating the Tigers.
As our seasons reaches the final
weeks of our regular season, we
have made great strides on im-
provements, and yet, we have sea-
son goals that we are working to-
wards and will need to continue to
work hard to meet both in game
situations and in practice," said
Coach Hess.

Monica Beilmaier and Elyssa
Westby were the team's leaders in
rebounding too as each player had
five; the Eagles out rebounded the
Kougars 33 to 26.
"It is never easy when you go
into overtime in a game, and end
up losing by just a couple points. I
know the girls were disappointed
that we came up short, as that is a
normal reaction when you have a
group of girls who care so much
about not only the game of basket-
ball but how their personal per-
formances were too.
No basketball team is perfect, as
we all make mistakes, but the girls
need to focus on the good things
that happened throughout the
game and maybe even ask them-
selves what we can even do better
next time," added Coach Kier.

The Varsity team had another
successful night of basketball as
they were victorious over the
Kougars with a final score of 55 to
46.
Autumn Schulz dominated
boards as she earned herself 26
points and 13 rebounds.
Kaitlin Schreiber also impacted
the boards as she came up with
nine points and 12 rebounds.
"From the beginning jump ball,
this basketball game was very
rough and upbeat.
The girls held their composure
very well, and I believe this has a
lot to do with our team's leader-
ship. Our seniors Schulz, Bailey
Lytle and Bobbie Steffen help keep
the entire team focused and
grounded on the specific tasks at
hand no matter if it is at practice
or in a game.
Our Juniors Sadie ORourke and
Schreiber also are great leaders as
they help keep the team "hungry"
for success.
Coach Kier and I, are very
blessed to have such ambitious
and well rounded girls on our team
that want to be successful in every-
thing they strive for," said Coach
Hess.

The Varsity team took the court,
and also got themselves a win over
Hot Springs. Their final score was
56 to 34.
Carlee Johnston lead the team
in points with 17 followed by Au-
tumn Schulz and Sadie O'Rourke
whom both added 10.
Several girls did a great job re-
bounding as Johnston earned her-
self four, Blasius, M. Bielmaier,
and Schulz each had three, Linn
and O'Rourke each had two, and
Bobbie Steffen and Huether both
got one.
"The girl's intensity was pretty
high throughout the game. We
played a very strong defense which
caused Hot Springs to turn over
the ball to us thirty times, and 22
of those times were steals.
"Both our point guard,
ORourke, and our main post,
Schulz, lead our team in steals as
ORourke had seven and Schulz
had five.
I am very proud how we got
after things, and made sure we
were in control of the basketball
game," said Coach Hess.

The Wall Eagles boys basketball
team hosted number one rated
White River on Thursday, January
31st.
The Eagles played aggressive in
the first half and shot the basket-
ball well, but had several
turnovers that gave White River
an 18-46 half-time advantage.
By the end of the third quarter
the Eagles continued to trail by a
score of 31-61.
In the fourth quarter, the Eagles
were able to get several bench
players into the game and the Ea-
gles lost by a final score of 46-88.
The Eagles finished the game with
a higher field goal shooting per-
centage than White River, but the
39 turnovers were very costly.
Tucker ORourke and Trevor An-
derson were the leading scorers for
the Eagles with 12 points and 10
points respectively.
Laketon McLaughlin and Tyler
Trask each had eight points.
ORourke also led the team with
seven rebounds, while Anderson
pulled down five rebounds.

team traveled to Kadoka on Fri-
day, February 1st and came away
with a 55-30 victory.
The Eagles started out slow and
struggled shooting the basketball,
but still had a 24-19 by halftime.
The Eagles played good defense
in the third quarter and were able
to build their lead to a 39-23 ad-
vantage.
The bench came in and played in
the fourth quarter and they were
able to secure the win for the Ea-
gles 55-30.
The Eagles were a little tired
after playing White River the pre-
vious night, but they played excel-
lent team defense to make up for
their low shooting percentage.
Tucker ORourke led all scorers
with 11 points, while Lane Hus-
tead and Trevor Anderson each
had 10 points.

The local High School quintette
scored two Journal cup victories in
weekend games with Midland and
Scenic High School. In their inva-
sion of the Midland court, the lo-
cals showed too much defense for
the easterners besides laying a
strong offensive game and they
meted the Midlanders a 21 to 5 de-
feat. In their Saturday night en-
gagement with Scenic, the Wall
boys started out strong and by
half-time had a 17 to 7 lead on the
invaders. But in the second half,
the cagers showed signs of weak-
ening and tired from their long
trek of the previous evening they
barely stove off a desperate Scenic
rally to eek out a 21 to 20 victory.
Floyd Ritzman is reported to be
improving. It was thought that he
had pneumonia and appendicitis
and he was taken to a Rapid City
hospital. Later it was learned that
he had pleurisy and pneumonia in-
stead of appendicitis.
The debate team met their first
defeat of the year Friday, February
3, when our affirmative team com-
posed of Kenneth Parkins and
James Ramey lost to Midland high
school, however on the same after-
noon our negative team composed
of James Allburn and Margaret
Noble won over Midlands affirma-
tive team.

Mrs. Anna Sebade was painfully
burned about the face and arms
Sunday morning when her bottle
gas stove exploded. She was at-
tempting to re-light the oven when
the previously escaped gas ex-
ploded. Dr. Mills treated the in-
juries and stated that the burns
were first degree and should not
prove to be too serious.
The Quinn boys basketball team
beat Interior, Friday, at Interior,

terior met teams in their respec-
tive classes on the local floor, Mon-

The Quinn-Wall Independent
basketball team edged Martin in
the finals of the District Independ-
ents tournament held at Kadoka,
Sunday afternoon and evening. To
get to the finals the Quinn-Wall
team eliminate Philip by the slim
margin of one point. Martin won
from Kadoka, 78-57, to get into the
finals. Jim Parke, Corky Johnson
and Don Kelly were the top scorers
for the local boys.
As the Courant goes to press,
the Wall School Board is meeting
in special session to try to iron out
two big problems (1) relieve the
over crowded condition in the Wall
school, the 1st grade in particular;
(2) and consider the financially dis-
tressed problems of the Quinn Dis-
trict. Last week, Supt. Vernice
Hildebrandt announced the split-
ting of the first grade and holding
half-day session for them. Some
parents objected so at a meeting of
the Methodist Church members,
the school was given permission to
use the church basement for a
classroom. Tonights school board
meeting will decide if this room
will be used. The Quinn problem is
much more serious, and an answer
will be hard to find. The point has
apparently been reached where ex-
penditures for the current school
year has reached the estimated in-
come of the District. So, if true,
warrants issued between now and
June 30 would be illegal, and
Board members could be held li-
able for their payments. Further-
more, it has been stated that any-
one knowingly accepting an illegal
warrant would be assisting in an
illegal act.
Wall firemen were called Friday
morning to the Hill Crest Court
where an electrical short had
caused a smoldering fire in a par-
tition in one of the cabins. No dam-
age was reported.
BirTH: Mr. and Mrs. Bill For-
tune are the proud parents of a
new baby daughter, born at the
Quinn hospital January 31. The
little Miss has been named Mary
Lou.
