Ambulance board approves maximum amount for mill levy
    by Laurie Hindman    The  Board  of  Directors  for  the Wall  Ambulance  District  met  on Monday, August 20 at 7:00 p.m. in the Wall Community Center meeting room.    The  July  25.  minutes  were  approved.    Secretary/Treasurer  Carolynn Anderson  handed  out  a  preliminary lease agreement that she has been working on. The board went over the agreement and discussed changes that need to be made. The board will sit down with the fire department to discuss the percentage that each entity use for utilities at the ambulance bay so that can be added  in  the  agreement.  Corrections to the lease will be brought to the next meeting for the board to review.  Anderson  informed  the board the lease will need to be completed by December. The tax levy for the district will have to be submitted to the county by September 1st.  Board  member  Jem  Kjerstad said, “We will have to go with the maximum amount so we can build up  a  reserve  to  start  replacing equipment.” He went on to say, “We will have to take the heat and let the public determine through election how the chips will fall.” Kjerstad was shocked at seeing what a tough  job  this  is  going  to  be.  The board agreed that the tax levy will have to be set at the full amount in order to get a base set, which usually takes two years. The board approved a motion to set the capital outlay  and  general  fund  at  the maximum tax levy.    Anderson has received insurance quotes  from  Fischer  Rounds  and Associates  and  from  the  Work Comp  Pool.  The  board  thought  it best to have Fischer Rounds meet with them at the next meeting so they can get a better understanding  of  what  the  insurance  will cover.    In  reviewing  the  by-laws  the board  discussed  splitting  the  district into wards to make it fair for representation of the district. Kjerstad said, “He would like to look at the evaluations to get a better handle on the financial portion of the district.” He noted, he would like to see who the funding burden is falling  on.  President  Wally  Hoffman would also like to see a business person or commercial owner from the district sit on the board since  commercial  property  will fund  the  majority  of  the  district. Norman Eisenbraun asked, “how would you define what is commercial?” He went on to say that they will have to do a study of the tax base. Board decided whose names will  be  recorded  on  the  checking account  signature  card.  Kjerstad and  Eisenbraun  feel  it  would  be good  to  sit  down  with  the  ambulance  service  and  discuss  a  few pertinent issues. Anderson would like to see by-laws from the eastern  part  of  the  state  before  they proceed  with  finalizing  the  bylaws.     Anderson has received information from a billing service. She related in 2011 the ambulance service  billed  $136,000  and  collected only $79,000. She went on to say that this particular billing service would  collect  30  percent  more  of the  outstanding  revenue.  The board  decided  to  ask  the  ambulance service and Lucille Holsether to  be  present  when  they  discuss the  possibility  of  hiring  a  billing service.    Hoffman  will  call  John  Kitterman to set up a time to visit with the ambulance service in the near future.     The  board  voted  to  leave  the name of the district as Wall Ambulance Service.    With no other business Hoffman adjourned the meeting.

Wall 2012 graduating class score above State’s ACT average
 South Dakota’s average composite ACT score remains unchanged from last year at 21.8, where it has been for the past three years. The national  average  was  also  unchanged from a year ago, sitting at 21.1 as it has for four of the past five years.  While South Dakota’s scores are consistently  higher  than  the  national average by several tenths of a point, South Dakota Secretary of Education Dr. Melody Schopp says there is always room for improvement.  She said efforts, such as implementation  of  the  Common  Core State Standards, should help boost student learning overall. With the Common  Core,  students  will  be challenged to engage higher-level thinking skills in order to arrive at a deeper understanding of the concepts they are learning.  “The  Common  Core  standards were  designed  to  equip  students with the knowledge and skills necessary as they move into postsecondary  education  and  careers,” Schopp said.  The ACT is scored on a scale of one to 36, with 36 as the highest possible score. Students are tested in the areas of English, mathematics, reading and science, although the science portion is science reasoning, not science-content knowledge.  The ACT  test  is  commonly used  as  a  benchmark  for  college entrance and readiness.  In South Dakota, 81 percent of graduating seniors took the ACT, which is high for states that don’t require  ACT  testing  for  graduation.  The state Department of Education offers South Dakota students several  resources  to  prepare  for the test, such as access to free test preparation  materials  available through SDMyLife.com, an online academic and career planning resource hosted by the department.  In addition, the department collaborates  with  the  Board  of  Regents  to  identify  and  assist  high school students whose ACT scores indicate they will require remediation at the college and university level.  “We have tools in place that can help  assist  these  students  in shoring  up  their  knowledge  and skills,”  Schopp  said.  “If  students can get some of this remedial work done  before  their  postsecondary education, it will save them both time  and  money  once  they  make the transition.”   Average Composite ACT Scores – South Dakota vs. National Year South Dakota    National 2008 22.0 21.1 2009 22.0 21.1 2010 21.8 21.0 2011 21.8 21.1 2012 21.8 21.1 The  graduating  class  of  2012 from  Wall  High  School  scored above the state and national composite  ACT  scores.  Thirteen  students took the test and scored:    English: Wall - 23.5, State - 21.0.

Thune: American Farm Bureau Federation Report shows significant negative impact of Death Tax in South Dakota
   Over 70 percent of South Dakota Farmers to be Subject to Tax--Senator John Thune (R-S.D.) says the American  Farm  Bureau  Federation (AFBF) report clearly shows that the Democrat-controlled Senate’s  recently  passed  tax  legislation would jeopardize the future of 71 percent of South Dakota’s family farms because it intentionally returns the death tax exemption to $1  million  next  year  instead  of keeping  it  at  the  current  $5  million.  Over  the  past  few  years  the prices of all South Dakota agricultural land, especially cropland, has increased substantially.  This dramatic  price  increase,  along  with the Democrats’ proposal to reduce the death tax exemption level to $1 million, could make passing a family  farm  of  only  a  few  hundred acres  to  the  next  generation  economically impossible due to death tax liability. According to data collected  by  AFBF,  when  applying 2012  farm  real  estate  values, farms and ranches larger than 714 acres  would  likely  exceed  the  $1 million exemption level. Crop producers  would  be  particularly  impacted by the lower exemption levels, as farms larger than 431 acres of cropland would be likely to exceed  the  $1  million  exemption level.  “This  report  outlines  just  how devastating the Senate Democrats’ death  tax  proposal  would  be  to South Dakota farmers and ranchers,”  said  Thune.  “The  value  of cropland across South Dakota has increased by more than 23 percent over the last year. According to the data  collected  by AFBF  from  the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National  Agriculture  Statistics Service,  the  appreciated  value  of cropland  throughout  the  state means  that  nearly  71  percent  of South Dakota farms would exceed the  $1  million  exemption  level under the Senate Democrats’ proposal. Since many family farm and ranch assets consist of land, livestock,  equipment, and small cash reserves, this punitive tax leaves the  next  generation  with  little choice  but to sell family holdings to pay the death tax. In March of this year, I introduced the Death Tax Repeal Permanency Act which would permanently repeal the federal death tax and the generation skipping  transfer  tax.  Repeal  of this  destructive  tax  is  critical  to keeping family farms and ranches intact across South Dakota.”  “Today’s  report  shows  that  the outdated death tax would impact over half of South Dakota’s farms and ranches if it is allowed to revert to pre-2001 levels,” said Scott VanderWal, President of the South Dakota Farm Bureau. “The Senate should pass Senator Thune’s death tax repeal bill, or at the very least,

Does your back to school checklist include a social security form? By Kathy Petersen Social Security Public Affairs Specialist If your son or daughter is a high school student turning 18, you’ve probably  spent  some  time  shopping  for  school  supplies  and  the latest  fashions,  working  out  the schedule  for  the  academic  year, maybe even looking into colleges.    If your young senior is collecting monthly Social Security benefits, here’s one more thing to add to your “Back-to-School” checklist.    To make sure that Social Security benefits continue beyond age 18, eligible students must obtain certification from school officials that they are still in high school and provide it to Social Security. Otherwise, monthly Social Security  benefits  automatically  stop when a student turns 18.     For more information about Social  Security  student  benefits, visit  www.socialsecurity.gov/ schoolofficials.  The  website  outlines how the process works with instructions on what the student and school official must do to ensure  that  benefits  continue  past the student’s 18th birthday. With the appropriate certification, Social  Security  generally  does  not stop benefits until the month before the month the student turns 19, or the first month in which he or  she  is  not  a  full-time  high school student, whichever is earlier.     Some  students  receive  Social Security  survivors  benefits  because a parent is deceased. Others  may  get  dependent  benefits because their parent receives Social  Security  retirement  or  disability benefits. Benefits for minor children generally continue until age 18 — or 19 if they’re still in high school. The only exception to this rule is if a student is disabled and eligible for childhood disability benefits. In that case, a separate application for benefits is required.  Social  Security’s  website  also includes:     •a downloadable version of the required Student’s Statement Regarding School Attendance (Form SSA-1372)  that  must  be  completed by the student, certified by the school, and returned to Social Security;     •answers  to  frequently  asked questions for school officials and students; and    •a field office locator to find the address of your local Social Security office. So as you’re buying school supplies,  trying  out  back-to-school fashions,  and  figuring  out  when the  holiday  break  begins,  don’t forget the important step of visiting  www.socialsecurity.gov/ schoolofficials.     Kathy Petersen is a public affairs specialist for Social Security, Denver Region. You can write her c/o  Social  Security  Administration, 605 Main, Suite 201, Rapid City,  SD,  57701  or  via  email  at kathy. petersen@ssa.gov. 
extend  current  levels  to  protect South  Dakota’s  agriculture  producers from this unfair tax.”  On  July  25,  2012,  Senate  Democrats  passed  legislation  on  a party-line  vote  of  51  to  48  that would  increase  taxes  on  small businesses and families. Additionally, if enacted, this bill would return the current $5 million death tax  exemption  to  $1  million  next year, and would raise the tax rate from the current top rate of 35 percent to an exorbitant 55 percent. Senator  Thune’s  legislation,  the Death  Tax  Repeal  Permanency Act, has 37 cosponsors and is supported by more than 50 groups and organizations.  Representative Kevin Brady (R-Texas) introduced identical legislation in the House of Representatives and the bill has more than 200 bipartisan cosponsors. 
Back to school means immunizations for pre-teens, college freshmen
   Parents of pre-teens and college freshmen should check their kids’ immunizations  before  the  school year starts, says a state health official.     “Parents  should  know  that  babies  and  toddlers  aren’t  the  only ones  who  need  immunizations,” said  Dr.  Lon  Kightlinger,  State Epidemiologist for the Department of Health.    Kightlinger  said  college  freshmen living in dorms and unvaccinated  kids  entering  high  school are at high risk for meningococcal disease and should be vaccinated.    A  bacterial  infection,  meningococcal disease is an inflammation of  the  tissues  covering  the  brain and spinal cord. Symptoms include fever, severe headache, stiff neck, vomiting and a rash. Prompt treatment  can  prevent  disability  and death. Ten to 14 percent of people with the disease die and up to 19 percent  of  survivors  may  suffer permanent  disabilities  such  as hearing loss, limb amputation or brain disease. South Dakota typically  reports  three  cases  of meningococcal  disease  a  year.  To date in 2012, there have been no cases reported.    A pertussis, or whooping cough, vaccine  booster  dose  is  recommended  at  11-12  years  when  immunity begins to wane. The initial pertussis series is given to children at  two  months,  four  months,  six months, 15-18 months, and four six years.    Whooping cough is a serious illness  that  causes  uncontrollable coughing,  rib  fractures,  pneumonia, loss of consciousness and even death. Young children are at highest risk, with two-thirds of those under age one who get it needing hospitalization.  There  have  been six  pertussis  cases  reported  in South Dakota to date in 2012.    Meningococcal vaccine is available  from  family  health  care providers  and  campus  student health  centers.  The  department provides the vaccine for those 1118 years of age who are eligible for the federal Vaccines for Children Program (Medicaid eligible, Native American or Alaskan Native, uninsured or underinsured). The vaccine is free for these children but providers may charge an administration fee.    The  department  provides  the childhood series of whooping cough vaccine and the booster dose free for 11-12 year olds. Providers may charge an administration fee.    To  find  a  vaccine  provider,  see http://doh.sd.gov/LocalOffices/Vaccine.aspx.  Learn  more  about meningitis  or  whooping  cough  at http://doh.sd.gov/DiseaseFacts/.    Improving  immunization  rates is  a  key  objective  of  the  department’s Health 2020 initiative.

The 2012 Cross Country season has officially started!
By Coach Patterson    The  Boys  Squad  traveled  to Douglas on Friday, August 24th to begin their season on a hot, windy day.       Nathan Patterson, a senior, ran varsity  against  59  runners  from AA,  A,  B  and  Wyoming  schools. He ran a 26:00 to start his season.    Austin  Huether,  a  sophomore, did not compete that day due to illness. He would have ran with Patterson  on  the  varsity  squad  as well.       Alex  Tysdal,  a  freshman,  ran Junior  Varsity  for  his  first  Cross Country competition.  There were 59 other runners in his division as well.  He  came  in  with  a  time  of 22.20.    Coach's Comments: Every year this meet is rather warm and this year was no different. There was a wind (like there has been all summer)  so  running  the  hills  on the course was a challenge.       The boys did well for their first meet.  Every  course  is  a  different challenge and the squad will continue  to  improve  as  the  season moves  on.  Thursday  we  head  to Spearfish for a 3:00 p.m., start and Friday  to  Faith  for  a  10:00  a.m., start. Busy but fun!

Gathered by Frances Poste    Friday,  August  24,  was  Steve Eisenbraun’s  75th  birthday,  and the celebrating began on Sunday, August 19 and continued all week, as family and friends began arriving from all over the country: sisters Margaret Hoeft and Claudia and  Dave  Keyser  from  Texas; Norma and Bob Juedes, Tina and Dewey  Fortune  and  Magdalena Garcia from Arizona; Lil and Marvin  Fitzwater  from  Florida; brother Walt from California; sons, Travis,  Beth  and  Isaiah  from Mitchell, and Tyler and Axton from Nebraska; aunt Mabel Schweigert, and  cousins,  Larry  and  Janice Schweigert, Donna Harrison and Maryann  Watts  from  eastern South  Dakota;  John  and  Kathy Drewitz,  Hilda,  Carmela  and Emilia Olson, Pam Giese, Ed and Linda Eisenbraun, and Wanda and Steve  Goodrich  from  Rapid  City; Nathan  and  Ashley  Eisenbraun from Sommerset; Jeff and Skyler Eisenbraun from Piedmont; Angie, Shelby and Wyatt Nellen from Hot Springs;  Dale  Eisenbraun  from Hill  City;  and  Agnes  and  Dick Sabel  from  Nekoosa,  Wis.  Many other  local  relatives  and  friends joined them for the party on Friday evening, August 24, at Steve and Gayle’s home.    The  big  news  is  the  most  welcomed rain on Friday evening — various amounts depending where you are, but very, very nice! Wall had around two inches. We needed it but keep on praying.    Also, great news is that Marilyn Keyser has come back from Texas, where she has been taking treatment. She has been staying with her granddaughter, Lorrae Aker at Sommerset,  but  this  week  (Monday through Friday) will be visiting  Gary  and  Ruby  Keyser.  We wish you well, Marilyn.    May it be noted that the Senior Citizens  (YAH)  will  not  meet  on September 3rd, Labor Day, but will meet  the  following  Monday,  September 10th. See you then.    Everyone said the “burger bust” fundraiser for Bart Cheney on Friday evening was a great success. We hope with the matching funds that it will mean a quick recovery for Bart.    Also on Friday evening was Wall Eagles  first  football  game  of  the season. White River were the opponents but the game wasn’t finished — got rained out. Now, isn’t that a new one for a football game in  Wall?  They  still  plan  to  finish the game.    Mark,  Darlene,  Amanda  and Kristina Poste stopped in Wall to see Frances on their way to Brookings on Saturday. They were going to get Amanda settled in the dorm at SDSU for the new school term.    Anita  Peterson,  Philip,  picked up Edith Paulsen on Sunday to go visit Bernice Anderson in the Good Samaritan  Home  in  New  Underwood. They continued on their way to Rapid City to shop.    Donna  Jedlicka  had  company last week — son Mike and his wife Cheryl came from Sioux Falls on Thursday.  They  had  to  leave  on Saturday  to  be  on  hand  to  take their  son  Nathan  to  Madison, where he will be attending school., On  Sunday,  David,  Kathy  and Haley  Jedlicka  came  from  Rapid City  and  Casey,  Shirley  and Chance  Trask  were  also  visitors.

The Carmichaels left Monday afternoon on their way to Wyoming to visit the Enders and on to Colorado to see Tom Carmichael and family.    Dean  and  Marcine  Patterson celebrated their 50th anniversary in grand style. The buffet supper was super with your choice of cake served. Everyone liked the band, “Break Even”. Will have to tell — one  92  year  old  man  who  walks with a walker, but he got caught up with the beat and was swinging in  the  corner  with  his  daughter. Great to see! Again, congrats to the Pattersons!    This is the last week of August —  summer  is  mostly  over.  The forecast  has  some  hot  temperatures for the first part of the week, so it isn’t over yet.    “There is no right way to do the wrong thing.” ~Anonymous interior.    All  three  cars  are  air  conditioned,  have  fuzzy  dice  dangling from their rear view mirrors and display their clubs logo decals in their rear windows — ROOSTERS ROOS.    We enjoyed their visit so much.    Ray and Jamy williams went to the White River Celebration with Jamy’s mother, and all enjoyed it.    Sunday was rest and relaxation at the Cheyenne River. Ray did a little fishing and caught a nice catfish  which  they  enjoyed  for  their supper  and  Jamy  searched  for treasures and found an interesting fossil.    The  Williams  baby,  Maverick will be making his appearance in a couple weeks (due date September 12)  and  while  Jamy  feels  well, there is that point when it is hard to get comfortable! The conversa-

The lightning would sometimes be to the west, the east and the south seemingly at the same time. It was an  awesome  sky!  No  rain,  but what entertainment.    Lawrence  Burke  from  up  Elm Springs  way,  called  to  learn  how much rain we got because he was watching the storm from his place!    I had to say that we had just a sprinkle. All that power overhead and  those  clouds  held  onto  their precious moisture and took it with them to Wall. Well, darn!    Happy Trails!

Submitted by Lloyd & Margee Willey    It seems the sumer heat is easing up on us. Of course it could be that it is just less miserable, but seems pleasant compared to what we’ve  known  for  so  many  days. Well,  whatever,  we  can  ponder that this winter.    I  am  pondering  now  how  the weeks go by so very quickly!    Ash Grenstiner said they went to the fair in Rapid City, Tuesday, Wednesday  and  Friday.  They  enjoyed the 4-H and FFA exhibits, especially the rabbit and poultry exhibits  and  attended  some  of  the concerts. Ash will be in the school band this coming year, Madi is in the  band  now,  plays  the  drums. Perhaps  Ash  will  as  well,  but  is still considering.    Hazel Kalkbrenner attended the fair, Friday, with specific gardening seminars in mind and a plant swap.    The  Old  Hotel  at  Wasta  had guests  Wednesday  evening  and night.  Lloyd  became  acquainted with  Gene  Tweedy  in  Maricopa, Ariz.  a  few  years  ago.  Gene  is building a dwarf car and has built two other classic cars, one of which he drove from his home in Pleasant Hill, Mo., to Deadwood (stopping in Wasta) for the “Cool Deadwood Nights” there. He was joined by  four  friends  and  their  classic and  sooo  nice  cars.  Gene  Tweedy from Pleasant Hill, and his friend Janet  Friedrich  from  Independence, were in Gene’s 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air, David and Brenda Bettis from Blue Springs, Mo., in their 1965 Ford Falcon and Bobbie Suhi in his 1936 Chevrolet. These cars made the Old Hotel look very fine! Technical information is provided by Lloyd:    Gene Tweedy: ‘57 Chevy Bel Air, two door hard top. New Chevy V8 Crate  engine,  with  700  R4  automatic transmission and posi-traction  rear-end.  Gene  installed  the complete interior from a ‘88 Cadillac Eldorado! Now it has  all  electric windows, seats and a console and door locks. He painted it a soft silver  blue.  She  rides  on  mag wheels, is lowered two inches all around, has skirts and full length lakes pipes.    David  Bettis:  ‘65  Ford  Falcon, two  door  hard  top.  Late  Model Ford 302 V8 coupled to a five speed transmission. She is black as shiny wet  coal  with  a  bright  red  full length body stripe. All new red interior with chrome dash insert and trim. Sits stock with mag wheels accented with black.    Bobbie Suhi: ‘36 Chevy two door Sedan - a true hot rod! It is powered by a 450 horse power Chevy V8  with  a  700  R4  transmission and a GMC posi-traction rear-end.

Good sense for sensitive skin
Sensitive  skin  is  a  problem  for millions of people. The uncomfortable feelings of stinging, burning, itching, redness and tightness can occur  when  certain  ingredients found in everyday household products react to delicate skin after contact.  Being  mindful  of  chemicals your  skin  comes  in  contact  with and  incorporating  more  natural, gentle products into your daily routine  can  help  reduce  these  unwanted reactions. "When it comes to choosing products, I recommend those that are hypoallergenic and have been clinically  proven  to  be  gentle  on  the skin," said dermatologist Dr. Elizabeth  Hale,  Ph.D.  "Skin-friendly products  include  those  that  are mild in nature and free of alcohol, preservatives and dyes." Instead of disrupting your skin with  irritants  found  in  everyday household  items,  you  can  choose more gentle, dermatologist recommended products to keep your skin healthy and comfortable:  •Soap - Washing hands with antibacterial soap strips the natural oils and can result in dry, chapped skin.  Choose  mild  soap,  free  of heavy scents or artificial dyes and wash  hands  with  warm,  not  hot, water.  •Household  cleaners  -  When  it comes to household cleaners, it can be difficult to avoid harsh chemicals.  To  ensure  your  skin  is  protected, wear rubber gloves and long sleeves  when  it's  time  for  heavy cleaning. Look for products labeled for sensitive skin or consider making  at-home  cleaners  with  everyday products like baking soda for an all-natural alternative. •Laundry products - If you've experienced  discomfort  where  the skin  is  covered  by  clothing,  there may be something in your laundry products causing the irritation. Try dye-free  or  skin-friendly  scented options  such  as  ARM  &  HAMMERTM Sensitive Skin Plus Scent Laundry Detergent which removes tough grime and odors from dirty clothes without sacrificing scent for sensitivity.  You  can  learn  more about skin-friendly laundry choices at www.armandhammer.com.  •Facial  creams  -  Wrinkle creams,  skin  peels  and  cleansers can  sometimes  cause  more  problems  than  they  solve.  Check  the label for common irritants such as ascorbic  acid,  paraben  preservatives, and the alpha hydroxyl acids glycolic acid, malic acid and lactic acid.  Test  a  new  product  by  dabbing a small amount behind your ear  and  leaving  it  on  overnight each day for five days. •Clothing  -  Rough  fabrics  such as  wool  can  cause  itchiness  and rashes. Wear clothing made of soft, smooth, natural fabrics like cotton and silk. Clothing should be loose fitting,  but  with  a  minimum  of creases and folds, which can cause more irritation. If you're unsure of how your skin will react to certain products, talk to your dermatologist. Taking good care of your skin just makes good sense. And taking a few simple precautions  can  keep  your  sensitive skin feeling good.

FINANCIAL FOCUS
KEEP INCOME PRODUCERS WORKINg HARD...EVEN WHEN RATES ARE LOW Richard Wahlstrom www.edwardjones.com    Next  week,  we  observe  Labor Day,  which  honors  all  the  hardworking  men  and  women  in  the United  States.  As  an  investor, you’d like to think that all your investments  are  working  hard,  too — including the ones that are producing  income.  But  can  your  income-oriented investments be productive when short-term interest rates are at historic lows? Or can you find other investment possibilities  that  could  potentially  boost your cash flow?     The answer to both these questions is “yes” — but you may have to take a closer look at where you stand  on  the  risk-reward  spectrum.     For example, you might need to consider longer-term income producers, which typically pay higher yields  than  shorter-term  equivalents. Longer-term fixed-rate securities,  such  as  bonds,  must  pay these  higher  rates  to  reward  investors,  who  face  both  interestrate risk — the possibility that interest rates will rise, causing the value  of  existing  bonds  to  fall  — and inflation risk, the threat of losing purchasing power by the time long-term  bonds  have  matured. Still, you may be willing to accept these  risks  in  exchange  for  the higher  yields.  However,  you  may be  looking  for  income  producers that can work hard for you without having to hold them for a long period  to  maturity.  This  is  because the  “yield  curve”  —  the  line  that plots  the  relationship  between yield  and  maturity  —  is  fairly steep right now, which, in English, means  you  can  gain  noticeably higher yields just by modestly increasing the maturity of your investments. Your financial advisor can suggest some short-term and intermediate-term  vehicles  that may be appropriate for your needs. And while these rates will still not be  as  high  as  those  offered  by longer-term vehicles, they do offer flexibility — along with less interest-rate risk and inflation risk.     You can also help protect yourself from these risks by building a “ladder” consisting of short-, intermediate-  and  longer-term  bonds and  certificates  of  deposit  (CDs). Once  you’ve  built  your  ladder,  it can help you weather changing interest-rate  environments.  When market  rates  are  low,  you’ll  still have your longer-term bonds and CDs earning higher interest rates. And when market rates rise, you’ll be able to reinvest your maturing short-term  investments  at  the higher levels. If you need the cash, you  can  liquidate  the  maturing bonds and CDs.     Thus  far,  we’ve  only  looked  at fixed-rate investments — but you may also be able to boost your income  by  owning  dividend-paying stocks. Some companies have paid —  and  even  increased  —  their stock dividends for many years in a row. If you’re not in need of the cash,  you  can  reinvest  the  dividends  and  boost  your  ownership stake, which is a key to increasing your wealth. But if you do need the money, you can take the dividends as cash. Keep in mind that income producers  are  not  a  “sure  thing” because  companies  can  decide  to reduce, or even discontinue, their dividends at any time. In addition, history tells us that you may experience  more  price  volatility  from stocks, and they can be worth more or  less  than  the  original  investment when sold.    As  you  can  see,  you  can  find ways to keep income-producing investments  working  hard  for  you, despite the prevailing low interest rates.  So  consider  your  options, weigh the risks — and then work with  your  financial  advisor  to make those choices that are right for you.

BUY THE TRUTH AnD SELL iT nOT
By Pastor Cornelius R. Stam Every true Christian should understand that the truth costs. If you don’t think so, make it your own, value it, defend it, stand for it, and see if it doesn’t cost. Before you are through it may cost you far more than you had thought — hours of ease and pleasure, friends and money. Yes, the truth costs. Salvation is gloriously free but the truth costs — that is, if you want it for yourself. Many who know the truth won’t buy it. They won’t pay what it costs to say: “This is what I believe. This is my conviction.” The truth isn’t worth that much to them. But in Prov. 23:23 God’s Word urges us: “Buy the truth”! Not, “Buy it if you can get it at a bargain; if the price is not too great.” No, “Buy the truth”! Buy it at any price. It is worth far more than anything you can give in exchange for it. And when you have bought it: “sell it not.” How many, alas, have bought the truth only to sell out again! For a while they valued and defended some God-given light from His Word, but presently they sold it again for something that seemed more valuable. Perhaps it was peace with others, or position, or popularity or some other temporal gain. They still gave mental assent to it but it formed no part of them. It was no longer a conviction. Such should read again the Spirit’s counsel: “Buy the truth, and sell it not.” He does not say: “Don’t sell it unless you can get a very good price for it.” He says: “Sell it not.” Sell it not at any price. Buy it, no matter what it costs and when it is yours do not sell it for any price or under any consideration. It is because the truth is so little valued in this indifferent age, that many of God’s people have become so spiritually powerless. They hold opinions instead of convictions, because they have given the infallible, unchangeable Word of God little place in their lives. God blesses and uses those who “buy the truth and sell it not.”

The Looking Glass of Time
80 years ago… Martin  Overholt  is  suffering from injuries received in an automobile  accident  which  occurred east  of  town,  Wednesday  afternoon. Mr. Overholt was returning to Wall when a rear tire blew out causing him to lose control of his car which swerved into the ditch and rolled over several times. He received several cuts and bruises and  a  crushed  chest  which  has kept  him  bedfast  since  the  accident. A  case  of  eggs  that  he  was carrying in his car was completely scrambled. Sunday afternoon, another  accident  occurred  between Wall  and  Quinn.  In  this  case  a woman with four children driving a late model Chevrolet ran off the grade  and  turned  turtle.  No  one was  injured  and  a  broken  windshield and a dented top was the extent of the damage to the car. The  Smith  Construction  Company from Nebraska was granted the contract to build the road from Wall  to  the  Pinnacle  Highway. Bids were opened by the Highway Commission, Tuesday of last week and were let the following day. A total of seven bids were made for this section of road, which was a greater number than for any other road project. The Smith Company because of having the lowest bid, $25,908.37, were given the work. Their bid was considerablely lower than  our  local  contractor,  N.  J. Olson, whose figure was approximately  $35,000.  The  highest  bid was $41,000. 70 years ago…    The  Wall  School  District  clerk, M. E. Bradley, stated Tuesday that Supt. R. B. Bartlett, coach M. McQuirk and band director Mr. Waterman have all signed contracts to  teach  the  coming  school  year and that none of them have given the board any official statement of their  desire  for  resignation.  At present,  he  stated,  a  Home  Economic  teacher  has  not  been  obtained,  nor  have  they  found  a teacher  for  the  intermediate grades. It may be impossible to secure a qualified teacher for Home Economics, he stated, but feel that the board can easily find one to fill the grade position. The Wall school is scheduled to start August 31.    Mr. Clarence Humphrey, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Humphrey of Viewfield, and Miss Jessie Strom, daughter  of  Chris  Strom,  of Owanka,  were  married  at  the Presbyterian Manse of Rapid City, Saturday  afternoon,  Rev.  Rew Waltz officiating with the ring ceremony. They were attended by Mr. Ernest  Strom  of  Viewfield,  and Miss  Lucille  Humphrey  of  Viewfield.    Little  Jimmy  Peterson,  small son of the Nathan Peterson’s, had his  leg  broke  last  week  when  he was kicked by a horse. He was at Philip for several days, but his parents took him to Rapid City, Sunday, as he was not doing so well.     60 years ago…    A  flat  tire  on  a  luggage  trailer towed by a car caused a fire which burned  about  40  acres  of  rangeland near Wasta, Tuesday, according to Bryce Kennedy, who helped put  out  the  fire.  Three  tanks  of water from Wall and Wasta, and a truck from the Air Base arrived at the scene and had the fire under control by 2:30 p.m.    Two tourists reported that they had  been  held  up  and  robbed  by three armed youths early yesterday  morning.  The  victims  had been sleeping in their car about a mile  south  of  Quinn  and  were awakened  by  a  gun  butt  rapping on  their  window.  Before  opening their car doors they tried to start their  motor  but  found  that  the bandits  had  removed  the  spark plug wires. The two men, Walter J. Dearth of Circleville, Ohio and his nephew,  Richard  Cameron  of Columbus, Ohio, stated their loss to  be  about  eighteen  dollars  in cash  and  a  camera.  The  Ohio tourists  were  able  to  give  only  a meager  description  of  the  three men or the car that they were driving,  according  to  C.  M.  Best  who investigated.     50 years ago…    Scores  of  youngsters  both  old and  young,  were  disappointed when the Sells Bros. 3-Ring Circus failed to show in Wall as scheduled Sunday. No direct word has been received here from circus officials as  to  why  they  failed  to  show  in Wall. The contact for showing had been  made  with  G.  W.  Shelton, president  of  the  Wall  Swimming Pool Assn. The Circus truck caravan  passed  through  Wall  early Sunday  morning  and  reported here to have gone to Sturgis. Advertising in the Courant had been ordered and was run on schedule. A circus representative was also in Wall  about  ten  days  ago  and pasted  posters  around  the  town. Advanced  tickets  had  also  been sold  by  the  Swimming  Pool  fund committee  and  totaled  approximately  $80.  Shelton  conferred Tuesday with a Rapid City attorney  but  as  yet  has  not  contacted any  of  the  officials  of  the  Sells Bros. Circus.    Miss Violet Eisenbraun, daughter  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Rudolph  H. Eisenbraun of Creighton, is one of the twenty-seven graduates of the Pierre School of Practical Nursing, who  received  diplomas  of  ceremonies held on Sunday, August 19 at the S.D.E.A. Auditorium. Governor  Archie  Gubbrud  presented the graduation address and A. A. Thompson, City Superintendent of Schools, granted the diplomas. Following the completion of the oneyear nursing program, Miss Eisenbraun plans to return to the New Underwood Hospital after a short vacation.    Wall firemen were called about 9:00  p.m.  Monday  to  the  Tom Bourne place in north Wall. A defective  stove  in  a  small  trailer home  had  caused  the  fire  which damaged curtains and smoked up the place. The fire was under control when the firemen arrived. 40 years ago…    The W.R.E.A. directors at their regular meeting in Wall, Tuesday, accepted  the  Unions  two-year wage agreement for linemen which gives  them  a  5.7  percent  wage boost this year, and a 5.2 increase the second year.    Three judges set out Monday to select  the  annual  Soil  and  Moisture Achievement winner. After a full  day  of  inspection  of  the  four places  that  had  been  selected  by the East Pennington Conservation Supervisors,  the  judges  unanimously chose the place of Leonard Kjerstad.  The  other  three  places were a close second — Donald Anderson, Melvin Harnisch and Bill Pippert. A recognition banquet for those  who  have  excelled  in  farm and ranch conservation practices is  expected  to  be  held  later  this fall.    Bill Pippert with the help of his son Scott, his friends, and neighbors  and  their  sons  —  George Hauk, Bill Clark, Lavon Shearer, Darwin  Hook,  Gary  Keyser,  Ken Deidrich and Pewee Hook — built a  lighted  arena  at  the  Pippert place and held a “grand opening” Sunday  afternoon  and  evening. Dick Wendt of Pierre, a brother of coach  Don  Wendt,  was  Master Chef for the open-hearth barbecue. The  250  pound  hog  was  dressed out and put on a pit, Saturday afternoon.  Roasting  started  that evening  and  after  an  all-night vigil,  by  the  next  evening  the porker was done to a “T”. A big iron kettle of beans completed the main portion of the meal. 30 years ago…    As  of  June  1,  Claude  Ramsey has  purchased  his  father  Chuck Ramsey’s part of the Wall Grocery and Restaurant. Ramsey said this week that the transaction was not finalized until a week ago due to legal  complications.  Chuck  Ramsey has been a part owner of Wall Grocery and Restaurant for almost two  years,  during  which  time Claude managed the store. Some plans  that  Ramsey  has  for  his business include future expansion. He said that this will involve making the restaurant section smaller and  the  grocery  store  bigger  in order to enlarge the produce and meat departments.    Glenn  Denke  completed  his studies  at  Concordia  Theological Seminary at Fort Wayne, Indiana, receiving the degree Master of Divinity on July 28. Denke is a 1968 graduate of Wall High School and a 1976 graduate of South Dakota State  University.  He  will  be  ordained  into  the  office  of  the  holy ministry  on  August  29  at  First Lutheran Church, Wall and will be installed  as  pastor  of  St.  Paul’s Lutheran  Church  at  Bridgeport, Neb. on September 5. Denke is the son of Tillila and the late Robert Denke of Wall. 20 years ago…    The annual Wall City Open Golf Tournament was held on Sunday, August 16, with 36 men and nine women  participating.  The  flag prizes were won by the following people: 1st Hole - Longest Drive: men  -  Lyle  Carmichael,  women  Kathy Beach; 2nd Hole - Close to Pin in 1: men  -  Gary  Keyser, women - Donna Crown; 3rd Hole - Close to Pin in 3: men - John Kitterman,  women  -  Donna Crown; 4th Hole - Most Strokes: men  -  Ryan  Patterson,  women  Barb  Patterson;  5th Hole Longest Putt: men - Ryan Patterson, women - Carol Paulsen; 6th Hole - Close to Outhouse: men Sean  Patterson,  women  -  Donna Crown; 7th Hole - Close to Pin in 2: men - Bob Johnson, women Kathy Beach; 8th Hole - Close to Pin in 1: men  -  Richard  Hauk, women - Kathy Beach; 9th Hole Longest Putt: men - Terry Peters, women  - Armista  Sebade;  Men’s Championship: 1st place Butch Beach, 2nd place Gary Keyser, 3rd place Pete Dunker; 1st Flight: 1st Bob  Thorson,  2nd  Bob  Johnson, 3rd Stan Mettler; 2nd Flight: 1st Gale Patterson, 2nd Wayne Davis, 3rd John Kitterman; 3rd Flight: 1st Veryl Schroeder, 2nd Sean Patterson; Women Championship: 1st Kathy Beach, 2nd Evelyn Kjerstad; 1st Flight: 1st Armista Sebade, 2nd Wanda Johnson.    Visitation to Badlands National Park this July decreased 0.3 percent from July 1991. Visitation to the  park  during  July,  1992  was 273,554  compared  to  274,361  for the same period in 1991. For 1992 to date, park travel is 639,460, a slight increase of 1.6 percent over 1991’s record totals. The unusually cool summer weather continues to attract higher number of campers.

Positive Mental Attitude vs. Proper Mental Attitude
   For many years I was all caught up in the "hype" of Positive Mental Attitude, then reality hit me like a brick. Things in life are not all positive.  Life  is  full  of  breakdowns, negatives, fall-a-parts, and glitches in the system. The key is how we respond  to  these  negative  challenges.  We  can  continue  to  look through the rose colored glasses of Positive  Mental  Attitude  or  take those  glasses  off  and  charge  into the challenges with an attitude of taking negatives and turning them into positives.    The minute I discovered the concept  of  Proper  Mental Attitude  it was  a  revolutionary  shift  for  me, and my thinking, about the circumstances in life. A Proper Mental Attitude is right kind of thinking. For example a person who has no talent for singing-no matter how positive  their  attitude-will  probably not become a famous singer. If you are only five feet tall, chances are that  having  a  positive  attitude alone  will  never  turn  you  into  a star forward in the NBA. Here, obviously skill and knowledge level, aptitude,  and  being  honest  with ones self comes into play.    The "right kind of attitude" will take  stock  of  your  strengths  and weaknesses. A Proper Mental Attitude begins with an honest look at who  you  are,  where  you  are  at,
where you are going, and how you are  going  to  get  there.  Having  a Proper  Mental  Attitude  means daily shifting paradigms and mindsets due to the fact that we are living  and  operating  in  a  changing world.  Nothing  ever  stays  the same. We must be willing to shift.    Today, consider approaching life with a Proper Mental Attitude. You will find that you are able to overcome  obstacles  more  effectively. You will discover that you can face fear  with  more  courage,  you  will sincerely  enhance  your  relationships, and you will get much more out  of  life  so  that  you  will  have much  more  to  give.  I  affirm  that this  is  all  proper,  positive  and healthy.

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY
with Dr. James Dobson
Dr. Dobson Answers your Questions
   QUESTION: I can't tell you how often  my  spouse  has  hurt  my  feelings  with  careless  and  cutting  remarks.  When  I  protest,  he  laughs and says he's only teasing or tells me I'm too sensitive. Unfortunately, it's no joke to me. What can I do to resolve this problem?    ANSWER: Sadly,  many  couples suffer from a perpetual case of individual  or  mutual  heartlessness. Even more tragically, a good number of them seem to regard this state of affairs as "business as usual." This is a huge problem, especially for husbands and wives who claim to be believers in Jesus Christ. The Bible repeatedly  instructs  us  to  treat  each other with kindness, honor and respect.  These  commands  were  designed to be applied to any relationship,  but  they're  especially  important  in  the  marital  context.  Marriage is sacred to God, and we can be sure  that  it  displeases  Him  to  see spouses haphazardly wounding each other's  spirits  with  potshots  like, "Can't  you  do  anything  right?"  or "You always make dumb choices like this!"  or  "You  act  just  like  your mother!"    That  said,  we  should  point  out that  ongoing  patterns  of  hurt  feelings in marriage can stem from two possible  sources:  a  hypersensitive spouse or an insensitive one.    Being overly sensitive can be just as destructive as its opposite. If you take  offense  at  every  perceived slight,  your  spouse  probably  will walk around on eggshells, trying not to  upset  you.  People  who  live  with hypersensitive mates often respond by withdrawing, becoming resentful or being terrified to say or do anything.  We'd  suggest  that  you  approach  this  problem  by  examining yourself, seriously and honestly, to see whether you might fall into the hypersensitive category.    Hypersensitivity  is  common  in people who allow what they feel to become the primary factor in determining how they see themselves and others, and how they respond to criticism and perceived threats. It can be  a  precursor  to  deeper,  more  destructive  emotional  and  relational problems. It can also be a symptom of Avoidant Personality Disorder, a condition  marked  by  timidity,  low self-esteem and excessive sensitivity to rejection. If you or your spouse fits the criteria for this disorder, professional intervention in needed.    The opposite of being too sensitive is insensitivity, which can be just as debilitating. An  insensitive  person "throws" his thoughts, words and behaviors out there and lets the chips fall where they may. Insensitive people are habitual violators of the command to "be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just  as  in  Christ  God  forgave  you" (Ephesians  4:32).  Insensitivity sometimes  indicates  a  serious  personality disorder called narcissism. People with this problem are excessively self-centered, lacking concern or empathy for others. Often they're unable  to  recognize  when  they've hurt  another's  feelings.  If  you  believe your spouse can be described as narcissistic,  we  suggest  that  you urge them to seek professional help. Without it, they won't be able to control their hurtful behavior.    Apart from personality disorders, if you or your mate has allowed insensitivity or hypersensitivity to set up  camp  in  your  marriage,  you should be aware that it can destroy your relationship if left unattended. There's  just  one  way  to  avoid  this negative  outcome:  by  making changes  in  attitude,  behavior  and spiritual  direction,  including  gen-

uine remorse and repentance.    Start by educating yourself about the  problem,  whether  it's  yours  or your  spouse's.  Knowledge  often leads  to  understanding,  which  in turn can facilitate resolution. Once you feel clear on the causes behind the  problem  you're  facing,  make your concerns known to your spouse in a non-threatening way. Don't use accusatory language. Instead, for example, describe how you feel when your  mate  uses  hurtful  words  and how these hurt feelings may influence you to respond inappropriately —  perhaps  by  withdrawing  or  becoming resentful. Be as honest and transparent as you can about your own sensitivity or insensitivity.    Throughout this process remember that God will judge us according to the way we treat others. As Jesus said, "I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment  for  every  careless  word  they have spoken" (Matthew 12:36). If the problem is chronic, or if you feel that insensitivity has actually escalated into verbal abuse, locate a Christian psychologist or psychiatrist who can assess  and  treat  personality  disorders.  Even  if  your  spouse  doesn't want  to  participate,  a  professional therapist can often offer direction on how  to  live  with  someone  who  has verbally abusive tendencies and how to manage the situation.
