The recent Langdon City Commission meeting had a strong showing from area business owners as they came forward to show their disagreement with Langdon City Ordinance 6.0105. This is the fifth time the ordinance has been brought forward for the Commission to address this year. The ordinance relates to usage fees for city utilities such as water, sewer, and garbage within the commercially zoned areas of Langdon. The ordinance states that businesses must pay their actual usage or a minimum fee, whichever is greater. For businesses that do not have a direct hookup in their business, they are required to pay a utility usage minimum fee in addition to full garbage, special fees, and other miscellaneous fees as determined by the Langdon City Commission. At previous city meetings in May of 2019, the Commission had discussed the ordinance with Langdon City Auditor RoxAnne Hoffarth. At those meetings, Hoffarth informed the Commission that no other cities that she spoke with had similar ordinances in place and that should the city

CCMH welcomes Van Noy as CFO Cavalier County Memorial Hospital has welcomed a new Chief Financial Officer, William Van Noy. Van Noy began his duties as the CFO on Monday, November 4. Van Noy is no stranger to the midwest as he spent his childhood in Toledo, Ohio, before moving during high school to Phoenix, Ariz., where he remained for a number of years. “Over the past 10 -12 years, I have traveled around the country as a consultant CFO for rural and communitybased hospitals,” Van Noy said. Van Noy earned his associates degree from the Community College of the Air Force then moved on to earn a BSB/ACC and an MBA from University of Phoenix. Van Noy has continued his education and is currently a doctoral student with a projected completion date of October 2020. Van Noy has also earned his Certified Healthcare Finance Professional (CHFP) from Healthcare Financial Manage-

ment Association (HFMA) and will soon have a fellowship with the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE). “I am married to the best wife, best partner and best mother of my young son, Brie. I also have a 2-year old boy named Landon. He is the light of my life,” Van Noy shared. “I am also a retired Air Force veteran, spending 27 years - 11 active duty and 16 reservist. During my military career I have been d e p l oye d three times (Afg h a n i stan, Iraq and Kuwait). My military career was rewarding and gave me perspective on being a United States citizen and what that means.” Van Noy has a broad range of experience within the finance profession having worked in several markets. He is familiar with governmental accounting, manufacturing, non-profit and for-profit organizations and, for the past 16 years, has worked in the healthcare seccont. on page 3

Businesses in opposition: accuse City of Langdon of double-dipping By Melissa Anderson Republican Editor

remove all of the extra accounts that resulted because of the ordinance, the city would sustain substantial revenue loss from the business sector. At those meetings, Karla Rademacher, owner of Quality Specialty Products & Printing, had petitioned for the fee be lowered from $100 to $25 as the building owner is already paying for the total utilities for that building. At the June 24 meeting, the commissioners voted in a roll call vote to leave the ordinance as written. At every meeting relating to the ordinance, commission chair Jerry Nowatzki has stated that the ordinance could be revisited at a later date

Nowatzki responded using the example of a contracted cosmetologist cutting hair in a building, in which case the Commission would not view that as a separate business. “So if Big O, Firestone and Goodyear were all under the same meter, you would not charge them separate because they are all providing the same service?” Entzi asked. “Correct,” Nowatzki responded. “This is the analogy that I came up with. There is a lot of room in Christie’s showroom. If I put up three partitions and opened up a travel agency, that would be different. But if I’m going to sell car parts in that build-

if more than one business petitions the City Commission to change the ordinance. Those concerned about the ordinance's legitimacy voiced their opposition in force with several services represented from Main Street Langdon. Nowatzki addressed the gathered citizens and explained the City Commission's position and interpretation and thus justification for the ordinance. Nowatzki stated that following a meeting with Langdon City Attorney Quentin Wenzel and another commissioner, the Commission views the ordinance like this example - if businesses share a like-minded business area such as a hairdresser or manicurist, they would not have to pay the minimal fee. However, if there is a different type of business such as a clothing boutique or travel agency within that same space, they will have to pay the fee. “We are not rewriting the ordinance right now. We believe that the spirit of the ordinance, as it was written in talking to previous commissioners and previous mayors, that the whole idea was because it’s cost prohibitive and sometimes not feasible to include a new meter. That’s why the ordinance was put there in the first place,” Nowatzki said. “That ordinance is on the books. That ordinance will be enforced by the way the city commission feels it should be enforced.” Casey Entzi rebuttal to this statement was by noting that the Commission will not be enforcing the ordinance the way it is written. Entzi stated that the Commission needs to enforce the ordinance equally across everyone the way it is written.

ing for Christie’s, even though I’m not a Christie employee, that’s going to fall under them, and I’m not going to pay a water bill.” The citizens present at the meeting asked the commissioners to explain what the basis for the ordinance is - specifically, what the city feels they are being cheated out of by having more than one business in the same area by not having this ordinance in place. Entzi reasoned that because the water and sewer are covered by the building owner and its meter, that the utility usage is being paid. Commissioner Lawrence Henry stated that the garbage is one utility that the additional business would not be covered by the building owner. For this reason, the ordinance and the minimum fee for utilities of $100 is in place. “You think it’s reasonable to charge $100 for garbage?” Entzi asked the Commission. Hoffarth clarified that the minimum fee would cover water, sewage and garbage. The commissioners agreed with the fee covering the basic services. North Dakota Century Code 49.04.02, which relates to reasonable charges for services and commodities of public utility, was cited by Entzi as the City being in violation of as “every unjust and unreasonable rate or charge made, demanded, or received for such product, commodity, or service is prohibited and unlawful”. “It’s basically saying you can’t be unreasonable. It’s a little bit vague, but if you’re telling me you think it’s reasonable to charge $100 a month for garbage for an additional busi-

ness- that’s the only additional resource that’s being consumed - that you’re not otherwise already charging for. You are double charging,” Entzi said. Glitz & Glam owner Barbara Crockett was also present at the meeting to voice her disagreement with the ordinance. Crockett stated that no services offered at the location have changed since she first opened the business. The boutique/salon combination has only been changed in who is responsible for running each section. Crockett has booth rent for the salon and boutique as it makes having those services easier for her and those who are operating within the building more control. “The structure of how people are getting paid has changed. Everybody is paying booth rent because it is easier for me. I don’t have to monitor what’s coming in so closely for everybody. Everybody pays me an amount, and we’re done’,” Crockett said. “There is nothing about my shop that has changed since the day I opened the doors, and all the sudden, somebody else is being charged an additional $100, and I don’t think that’s fair.” Crockett is referring to the manager of the Adventurous Darling Boutique, that has taken over the clothing boutique aspect of Glitz & Glam, being billed the $100 while the salon services providers are not. Entzi cited another law in NDCC (49-04-07) that prohibits giving businesses undue preference or advantage, which means every separate business within a space needs to be charged according to how the city ordinance is written. “That’s the problem. You are picking and choosing who you want to charge,” Entzi said. Entzi continued asking what leverage the City would have to make the separate business pay the fee. The building owner pays the utilities, which means they could not shut off the utilities. Henry gave the example of a phone company providing five separate phone lines to businesses and the need for five different phone bills instead of just one for the whole building. “It costs them more; there are literally more resources involved. You already have a water meter that you’re charging them water usage for. You’re already charging them for sewage. The only thing you can even argue is the garbage, and $100 a month for garbage is ridiculous,” Entzi said. Henry asked if it would be fair to residents and other businesses of the city should the rates need to be raised to cover the lost revenue from this ordinance. That those busicont. on page 2

Langdon Area Chamber of Commerce

Invites you to attend Langdon’s Holiday Events

Here comes Scams and Frauds Safeguarding yourself from scams and frauds is a year-long task. However, as the holiday season is now upon us, the North Dakota Attorney General's Office cautions all to take extra care when thinking of giving and receiving. North Dakota nice is a way of life, and the generosity of the state’s population only increases during the most wonderful time of the year. Scammers like to take advantage of that giving spirit by posing as a charity to gain money from those just looking to make the season brighter. “Scammers really take advantage of fake charity solicitations in various forms such as email, social media, by text and even by telephone calls,” Parrell Grossman, Director of the Consumer Protection and Anti-Trust division of the North Dakota Attorney General's Office, explained. Before donating to any charity, unless it’s one that is already familiar, Grossman advises consumers to carefully check it out. Online resources that have a substantial list of known charities are available. Grossman shared some that are very easy for consumers to access include give.org, guidestar.org, and charitynavigator.org. In North Dakota, the Secretary of State registers charitable organizations and also has a list of authorized charities that can operate and receive donations within the state. Another popular holiday scam is the emergency scam. The Attorney General's office urges consumers to be cautious should they receive messages or calls from “friends” or “relatives” claiming to be in an accident, arrested, or hospitalized while in another country. The scam also sometimes uses the “stranded veteran/soldier” using the love and appreciation of military service members to open up checkbooks to give money. “It has a broader and more

specific appeal because it’s occurring during holidays. Again, I think we are more susceptible to these kinds of things and sometimes consumers just don’t do their homework,” Grossman shared. Goodwill towards one another can be found on social media during the holiday season in the form of a phony gift exchange. These are often called the “Secret Santa”, Secret Santa Program, or the “Secret Sister Gift Exchange”. These scams promise that if the consumer sends one gift they could get so many gifts back. These are actually illegal pyramids and most, if not all, participants who participate or join in this will get burned. In fact, participation has led to prosecution, which has occurred in the past, according to Grossman. Other favorite holiday scams include the fake shipping notifications in emails. These links often include malware that gathers personal information after being clicked on and enables the download of the software that will then collect sensitive information. E-cards and gift cards also pose dangers. For e-cards, things to look out for as red flags include the sender not being clear or being asked to share personal information to get the card. Gift cards are a common and easy gift when gifting is hard. Grossman states that the more sophisticated thieves are able to steal the value of the gift cards before they are even purchased by a consumer. “If you have just the slightest bit of doubt, please pick up the phone and call the Attorney General's consumer protection hotline and ask us," Grossman said. Consumers should always feel free to call the North Dakota Attorney General's Consumer Protection hotline at 1-800-4722600.

Melissa’s Musings By Melissa Anderson Outsmarted by a 5-year-old I was outsmarted by my 5-yearold. I'm not afraid to admit it. In fact, I'm pretty proud. Screen time and what my kids are allowed to watch has been a priority of mine. Age-appropriateness and duration are two things that are at the top of my list when my kiddos are home. Youtube...is strictly monitored and has rules. Ask anybody who knows me well, and they will tell you I'm a disaster with tech. Parental controls seem to be getting more and more complicated to implement and use. I also tend to kill tech, so there's that as well. So how did my 5-year-old kindergartener outsmart me? I needed to do some chores around the house and needed to keep my oldest kiddo busy and quiet while the youngest one took a nap. TV to the rescue! When an adult isn't in the room, no Youtube. Because of how quickly a little can go through videos looking for something to watch and the fact that restrictions on the video content is not as monitored as the com-

Letter to the Editor: Wednesday, November 6 I drove from Minot to Bismarck to observe the legislators of the audit review committee. The purpose of this committee is to review the state auditor's audits and to make recommendations based on that review's findings. I have taken a special interest in these hearings, after the legislators passed a bill to stop certain audits from happening without their permission, which the Attorney General has opinioned, unconstitutional. By attending several of these meetings it has become abundantly clear that things have been done wrong for years. Rules are broken, laws ignored, and just

pany would lead us to believe, it's just safer that way. “No Youtube!” is a constant statement made by me. The“okay, mom” with eye contact as acknowledgment of said statement is required. Not too long ago, it was discovered that Amazon Prime, a streaming service that is part of the Prime Membership package, had some videos that were similar to those found on Youtube. What I did not know was that those videos can lead to actual Youtube videos that had been allowed on the Amazon Prime service. I start the chores and occasionally stop to listen to make sure I'm hearing a TV show and not some random video. Most kid shows today have highly irritating voices instead of the normal voices that were found in the shows of my youth. Nearly done and a quick pass by the living area where the entertainment is being watched, and I make a stark realization. I've been duped. There, my little angel sits on a pillow watching one of those Youtube videos. She isn't on Youtube, but she has managed to find Youtube videos. I can't even be mad that she beat the system.

Dear Editor

shoddy business practices with the taxpayer's money, including the blatant misappropriation of funds. In the University of Science case in Wahpeton, there was blatant corruption and an attempted coverup. In the case of the state library money was given to two libraries that did not qualify and one library that did but received no funds. By attending these hearings it has become very clear that there are three main bad actors, Rep Mike Nathe, Senator Judy Lee and the Chairman.

Upside Down Under By Marvin Baker

Harmless and unforgettable pranks... Have you ever pulled a harmless prank on someone? You know, the kind of gag that doesn’t get anybody hurt or get any property damaged? Some people don’t have a sense of humor, but I would think that most of us have pulled a caper like this at some time in our lifetime. Back in the 1940s in rural North Dakota, they used to tip over outhouses in the darkness of night. Apparently, that was a lot of fun because my dad, his friends and my dad’s brothers all talked optimistically of doing this, at least once a year on Halloween. But pranks are done at other times as well. April Fool’s Day is a good example of how people get completely fooled by a loved one. Sometimes they bring in outside help to make it happen. There are two pranks that I would like to tell you about that I was involved in: one in high school and one less than a year out of high school.

the wrongdoings found by the auditor's audits were just simple human mistakes and that all of us have been guilty of such. They then criticized the auditor for following the law in his referrals to the correct law enforcement agencies. The chairman even questions why things are so different now than from the previous auditor. The answer is very simple. Transparency is the word. Without practicing accountability, no one has been held accountable, or faced consequences for their actions. These legislators are more concerned with protecting the agencies and their fellow peers than the taxpayers they are supposed to represent. Mr. Nathe and Mrs. Lee should both resign. Both are "RINO" Republicans. Mr. Nathe is why we still have common core and liberal teaching in our schools and Mrs. Lee is why we spent 4.5 billion on welfare in North Dakota. Their voting record as liberal legislators is a matter of public record. So it should be no surprise that they are the ones fighting to downplay these bad audits and make their committee ineffectual and a total waste of taxpayer dollars. Charles Tuttle Minot

When I was a senior in high school, some friends and I were talking in class when we weren’t supposed to be, and because the teacher assumed I was the instigator, he told me to write a 5,000 word report on the French Revolution and turn it in the following Monday since we were caught on a Friday. The light bulb on top of my head was instantly turned on. None of us liked this teacher so I concocted the idea of playing a prank on him. I asked those same two friends who were with me when we got caught talking to come over to my house because I had an idea that was going to take some time, but it would be an unforgettable spoof on this teacher. So, they came over with pens, notebooks, reference books and other items. We basically spent that entire Saturday putting together a manuscript of that 5,000 word report. The following Monday I turned it in, and he was so shocked he didn’t know what to say. The class roared in laughter because by now, they all knew what was going on. He told me to write a report. He didn’t say what language it had to be in, so I wrote the entire report in French since it was about the French Revolution and all! For those French words I didn’t know, my friends helped me translate English words into French so that it would be proper and correct. Indeed it was, and the principal was so dumbfounded he didn’t say anything other than “very clever.” The second trick was on me, at least initially. A group of us were working in Kulm, and every day after work, we would stop at the local cafe for a hot meal before retiring for the night. So one of my high school friends and I were sitting there eating dinner when all of a sudden he said, “There’s something on your shirt, let me take a look.” Without even thinking about it or having time to react, he took a ketch-

up dispenser and filled my pocket with ketchup and then slapped me on the chest. There was ketchup all over, and it looked like I’d been shot or something. We got our laughs out of it, and while we were finishing our meal, we decided to pull an antic on the local cop. We both left the cafe and drove away in my friend’s car. While he was driving down the street (barely moving), he opened up the passenger side door and pushed me out of the moving vehicle with his leg and into the street. Don’t try this at home folks! The local cop was right there and upon seeing me lying in the street, he, too, assumed I had been shot. He helped me to my feet, and I said, “Follow that car.” He took off after my high school friend and stopped him at the edge of town. The cop wasn’t angry and didn’t cite either of us, but he made it clear that if we ever did anything like that again, we would be in big trouble. There’s no way we would get away with that in this day and age, but back then it was just us, a couple of 18-year-old pranksters having some fun. Today, the world is different, and what we did, even in a town like Kulm, North Dakota, would have a much different ending. There were a lot of other little, harmless pranks like filling my boss’s boots with wheat, or after I found out my girlfriend was seeing someone else without breaking up, a couple of friends and I jacked up her car at a party and took all four tires off, put them in the back seat and left it on blocks. Then, suddenly, it was off to college and the pranks stopped dead in their tracks because I became quite serious about getting through college, earning a degree and playing on the college baseball team. That was a lot of fun, too, but in a much different way.

LAHS science students are working hard on a Saturday! They are getting their experiment ready for their Near Space flight at UND next weekend. They are measuring the effects of moisture, temperature, pressure, and states of matter on various liquids and solids at different levels of the atmosphere. Seth Franchuk (top left photo) is working on the sensor that will be used to measure temperature and pressure. Claire Hiltner and Alexa Schneider (top middle photo) are writing the scientific proposal and keeping track of the budget. Jaden Rademacher and Alex Brinegar (top right photo) are busy drawing the schematics of the project. Not pictured, but also participating, are McKenna Belle, Caleb Hetler, Justin Pengilly and Sean Dudley.

N.D. FFA Foundation to receive $40,000 from Dakota Access Pipeline The North Dakota FFA Foundation and North Dakota 4-H Foundation are each receiving donations of $20,000 each from Dakota Access Pipeline, LLC. The funds will be used to support leadership training and state conference opportunities, with the goal of supporting programs that reach as many students throughout the state as possible. In an effort to support youth programs in counties along the entire four-state pipeline route, Dakota Access will be making similar donations in South Dakota, Iowa and Illinois totaling $50,000. “The North Dakota FFA Foundation is grateful for Dakota Access’ generosity and support. This gift not only gives our Foundation the ability to continue our programming and mission; it highlights the company’s commitment to the future leaders of agriculture right here in North Dakota,” said Andrew Young, Interim Executive Director, ND FFA Foundation. “The donation to FFA will be used to sponsor the ND FFA Winter Leadership Conference which has grown to one of the largest attended conferences in the state, helping students in the areas of leadership and personal growth, career exploration and community service. It will also be used to sponsor the 91st ND State FFA Convention in June.” “On behalf of the North Dakota 4-H Foundation we are pleased to accept $20,000 contribution from Dakota Access Pipeline which will

This contribution will be used to support the Youth Extension Conference held at NDSU in June for teens and led by the state 4-H Ambassadors group. It will also support the Leadership

tition. The winning design will be announced in April 2020 during County Government month. The “I Voted Sticker” will be used starting in the June 2020 election. Soliciting the help of fourth graders is a perfect fit for the project. Fourth graders across the state have a North Dakota Studies unit, which includes the right and responsibility of citizens over the age of 18 to vote in elections. This contest provides a perfect opportunity for county auditors and teachers to work together to get kids interested in voting and educated on the election process. 4th Grade “I Voted” Sticker Contest Guidelines Who is eligible: All North Dakota 4th Graders Form available: Pick up forms from your county auditor, school or download online: ndaco.org/sticker-contest Sticker Requirement: Must include words “I Voted” Submit entry: Your County Auditors Office or email to: contest@ ndaco.org Deadline: December 20, 2019

FarmHouse Fraternity alumni have established an endowment that will provide six, $3,000 scholarships to incoming male freshmen at North Dakota State University for the 2020-2021 academic year. The scholarships will not be based primarily on academics, but rather a demonstration of FarmHouse Fraternity values, i.e., intellectual, spiritual, social and moral development. Applications are available at ndsufarmhouse.org and are due by February 1, 2020. Preference will be given to someone who demonstrates the characteristics of “grit”—resilience, a strong work ethic, direction, desire to succeed, and perseverance. A qualified recipient must demon-

strate that his circumstances and accomplishments, when combined with financial aid and determination, will result in a high likelihood of graduation from NDSU in four years. Awardees will be announced in approximately March. About FarmHouse Fraternity The North Dakota State University chapter of FarmHouse (FH) Fraternity was established in 1955. FH is noted for maintaining one of the highest gradepoint-averages at NDSU and does not allow alcohol in the fraternity house or at any other functions. Membership represents a wide variety of majors, such as agriculture, engineering, business, and political science. For more information, visit ndsufarmhouse.org.

ND County Auditors Launch Election Sticker Contest The North Dakota County Auditors Association has launched a contest for fourth grade students to design a new “I Voted” sticker for use in the 2020 Election and into the future. The value of this project is that it raises awareness on the importance of elections and the role counties play in elections. In addition, it provides a new updated sticker for voters to receive on Election Day. North Dakota County Auditors will be reaching out to schools across the state in an effort to engage fourth grade classrooms and encourage student participation. The student can create a color design using the form distributed to schools or found directly here: ndaco.org/sticker-contest. The design must include the words: “I Voted” and the design must fit in the oval on the form. Entries can be provided to the county auditor or emailed directly to: contest@ndaco.org by December 20, 2019. County Auditors will select one submission from their county to forward onto the statewide compe-

Marietta Mabie

A private family service and Celebration of Life will be held next spring at the Riverview Cemetery in Pickstown, S.D. for Marietta Mabie, 68, of Pickstown, S.D., who passed away peacefully on November 4, 2019, after a hard fought battle with cancer. Marietta was born June 29, 1951, in Langdon to George and Marjorie (Penner) Plummer. She graduated from Langdon High School in 1969 and then graduated from business college. She took a job with the Corps of Engineers where she met her future husband, Ron. She and Ron were married in 1973. A short time after, Ron was transferred to work at the Fort Randall Dam, and they moved to Pickstown, S.D. She was a member of the Country

Quilters and the South Dakota Ornithologists Union. She loved quilting, spending time with her quilting friends, going birding with her husband, wildflowers, gardening, feeding and watching birds in her backyard. Quilting was her passion, and she was known for her beautiful quilts and use of colors. She also enjoyed spending time with her nieces and nephews. Marietta leaves behind her husband of nearly 46 years; a sister, Jolene (Allan) Thompson, of Langdon; brothers-in-law: Richard (Carrole) Mabie of Lynnwood, Wash. and Doug (Syl-Vonna) Mabie of Raleigh, N.C.; sister-in-law Marjie (Ed) Peterson of Minot; and many nieces and nephews, whom she dearly loved.

Devotions by community pastors

This devotion is submitted by Pastor Adrian Olson of North Parish

Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in the “big issues” of justice in our world and forget that justice also needs to be worked out right on our own doorstep – as Mother Teresa so wisely put it: “we cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love”. In the past, the church communities have sometimes become so focused on “overseas mission” that we have neglected the mission fields in our own neighborhoods. We have sometimes been so concerned with fighting injustice “out there” that we have ignored the battered women, the neglected children, the abusive leaders and the exploitative practices in our own churches. As important as it is to work for justice in the world, and to contribute to with the big issues, we must never forget the

small, daily disciplines of worship, prophetic preaching, care and nurture that ensure that together we become more whole, peaceful and compassionate human beings. And as we care for the hurting, exploited and abused people among us, the healing and justice we bring is like a stone dropped into a pond – it sends ripples out into the world that make a big difference. So, perhaps a question to ask this week is this: how does our worship and our life together as a community of faith provide safety for those who are abused and under threat, provide community and belonging for those who are excluded and judged, and provide nurture and support for those who are in need of physical, emotional, mental or spiritual resources?

Brush with the Bunch

After a little persuasion Flo Holen sent in the following article for “Where are your paintings hanging?“ In Flo‘s words: „This is an acrylic painting that I did the second year I was in the Brush Bunch. When I started this painting I thought it would be fun to include members of the Brush Bunch in the painting. The Frenchman, Leo, is seen painting the Eiffel Tower, and there are a lot of the Brush Bunch represented in this painting. It was the first large painting I had ever done. I hadn‘t painted before I started with the Brush Bunch; Lori Gray took me under her wing and showed me how to do flowers. It was perfect! Practice, practice, practice. Every year I try to learn something new. I have been painting cards lately; they are good practice, and I love giving them away. Everyone is so supportive of all the members, as one of the Brush Bunch said; ‚It‘s great to have a day with like minded people!‘ The Eiffel Tower hangs in my living room. I am sure my family doesn‘t realize how much fun it is to see my friends everyday! When I glance up, I am reminded of the true character of each person in the bunch! I wish everyone could find a group of people so kind, thoughtful and supportive as this group!“ Thanks, Flo, for the wonderful words and praises. Flo Holen joined the Brush Bunch in 2013 and has been a great asset to our group. A calendar of events for the Brush Bunch was handed out today which includes: general cleaning, decorating windows for Christmas and our Christmas pot luck dinner, party and gift exchange plus a list of community events for November and December. In the absence of our president. Thanks, Virginia. Homonyms VS Heteronyms: Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present. Thanksgiving then Christmas.

Quitting tobacco is the single most important thing you can do to improve your health. If you’re ready to quit smoking, make Thursday, November 21 your quit day. North Dakotan’s are invited to join thousands of others across the country who are making a plan to quit as a part of the American Cancer Society’s annual Great American Smokeout. All smokers, including those who use electronic nicotine delivery systems or vaping devices, are encouraged to take advantage of the wealth of resources available to help them quit. North Dakota’s smoking rate, at 19.1%, is higher than the current national average of 14%, according to the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids. The impact of this public health crisis is felt by thousands of loved ones affected by smoking-related illnesses, and the 1,000 North

Dakotans who die every year because of them. Cavalier County Health District and Cavalier County Memorial Hospital and Clinics recognize the most effective way to quit smoking is to make a quit plan. Our ofﬁces assist those wanting to quit tobacco by providing educational materials and tobacco cessation resources. In addition, the statewide tobacco cessation program, NDQuits, offers free support and coaching. Cavalier County Memorial Hospital and Clinics have trained tobacco treatment specialists ready to help you in person to make a plan and start your journey to being tobacco free. A quit plan may include setting a quit date, listing reasons to quit, identifying smoking triggers, and building a strong support system. “Every day is a new day to quit, so if you’ve tried before, use the

Great American Smokeout to try again,” said Steph Welsh, RN at Cavalier County Health District. “There are so many resources available to help you quit, and it starts with day one.” Tobacco users can get help enrolling in NDQuits by making an appointment a Tobacco Treatment Specialist at Cavalier County Memorial Hospital or Clinic 701-2566120 or by calling 1-800-QUITNOW (1-800-784-8669). TDD users can call toll-free at 1-800-842-4681. Enrollment in NDQuits is also possible online at www.ndquits.health. nd.gov. To learn about tobacco prevention and cessation efforts happening in our community, contact Cavalier County Health District at 701-256-2402.

Northern Lights Arts Council schedules auditions The Northern Lights Arts Council is proud to announce this season’s musical revue: Once Upon an Ever After – Fairytale Musicals. Auditions are right around the corner, taking place on Monday, November 25 at 7 p.m. at New Hope Fellowship Church, 314 15th Ave., Langdon. Do you like to sing, dance, and act? Then this musical revue is just for you! Have you always wanted to perform in a musical but have never taken the opportunity? Now’s the time! Many might wonder what a musical revue is. Director Emily Braunberger defines a musical revue as “a musically-driven show with a general theme with songs performed that fit under that theme.” This year’s theme is fairytale musicals, and performers can expect to sing songs from Shrek the Musical, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella, Into the Woods, various Broadway Disney musicals and more. This is the third musical revue directed by Braunberger; past shows include Lights Curtain Broadway: Most Popular Songs on Broadway and Let’s Go to the Movies: Movie Musicals. “It’s safe to say that I am beyond excited for this year’s show. Who doesn’t love a good fairytale?” said Braunberger. “I have a lot of ideas up my sleeve that I’m excited to bring to life.” The musical revue is open to students in the fifth grade to adults. Braunberger is looking for a wide variety of performers both male and female. At the auditions, performers are asked to prepare a small cutting –

Musical revue performance from 2016 “Lights, Curtain, Broadway”. or section – of a musical theater or Disney song, roughly one minute in length. If unsure what to sing, Braunberger assures that a simple song like Happy Birthday will be just ﬁne. There also may be a short dance audition, if time allows. Braunberger asks that the word “dance” not deter you from auditioning. “People hear the word ‘dance’ and it’s like instant panic comes on their face!” says Braunberger. “I promise I’m not asking you to learn an intense dance routine. It’s simply basic choreography and simple dance steps to help make the musical numbers more interesting. Standing still on stage is boring!” For performers who have never auditioned for a musical with Braunberger, she asks all newcomers to come to auditions a few minutes early in order to ﬁll out some informational forms. Rehearsals for the musical revue will begin in January with performances taking place March 12-15, 2020. According to Braunberger,

the performance dates are a little later than previous years. This is to, hopefully, prevent conﬂicts with school sports and will also give the cast a few extra weeks of rehearsals. Rehearsals will take place three to four nights a week, though not all cast members will need to attend every night of rehearsal. As show time draws closer, the cast can expect a busier schedule to help prepare for the performances. “I would really love to see some new faces try out this year,” says Braunberger. “If you’ve always wanted to do a musical but have never taken the leap, come audition for this show! I promise you’ll have a great time.” If you’re interested in auditioning but can’t make it to the audition, Braunberger is more than willing to make alternate arrangements. If you have any other questions, Braunberger can be reached via Facebook, email: eh2007@hotmail. com, or call/text 701-370-8463.

Dakota Bowl 3.0!!!

Cardinals blast Lisbon 50-0 to advance to 3rd straight title game By JAKE KULLAND Republican Sports Writer The Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals were in the semiﬁnals of the Class A 11-Man Playoffs when they hosted Lisbon on November 9 for the right to go to the Dakota Bowl. The Cards played their best game of the season to date, with a 50-0 domination of the Broncos. The win puts the Cardinals winning streak at 24 games, and they advanced to the Fargodome to try and defend their Class A 11-Man Title versus Minot Ryan at Noon on November 15. Their record this season is now a perfect 12-0. It was a masterful performance by the Cards defense that set up their offense in great shape all day. There were multiple three and outs by the Broncos, which the Cardinals converted into multiple touchdowns. Simon Romfo broke two tackles and sprinted into the end zone which started the scoring and also started a huge day rushing for the Cardinals junior quarterback. Langdon-Edmore-Munich had their next two scores come from the

pass, as Simon tossed a 19 yarder to Jackson Delvo, then Grant Romfo had a fantastic 47 yard catch and run to bring the score to 22-0 early in the second quarter. Lisbon would fumble the ball on their next possession, and Simon Romfo would run in another TD from 30 yards out then another on the Cardinals next drive from 52 yards to put the game away in the ﬁrst half. Grant Romfo scored on a rush from two yards out to bring the score to 44-0 at the half. There were just three drives in the second half, as the Cardinals controlled the football for most of it, scoring once more on Simon Romfo's fourth rushing touchdown of the day, a 15 yard sprint up the middle. With the four touchdowns, Simon ran for 207 yards for the game, while Grant Romfo ran for 70. The Cardinals gashed Lisbon with the run all day as they tried to focus on the pass. Langdon-Edmore-Munich held the potential all-state junior running back, Jordan Sours, to just 39 yards on 19 carries. Lisbon QB Hunter Schultz did have 137 yards rushing to lead the team.

Lady Cards glide through first two Region 4 matches

Are one step away from another State Tourney appearance

By Jake kulland Republican Sports Writer

The Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals girls volleyball team entered the 2019 Region 4 Volleyball Tournament held in Devils Lake November 11-14 as the top seed in the tourney and came into the postseason with a record of 34-3. The Lady Cards breezed through the opening round and semifinal matches of the tourney, beating ninth-seeded Dakota Prairie 3-0 on Veterans Day then Benson County in the semis on November 12. The Cardinals had their record move to 36-3 on the year, and they faced North Star for yet another season for the Region 4 Championship on November 14. Should the Cards win the region title, they would advance to the State B Tournament to held at the Fargodome November 21-23. Here is a recap of the Lady Cards' first two matches at regionals: Langdon-Edmore-Munich 2525-25, Dakota Prairie 16-9-12 The first set of the match with the Knights got a little dicey as the Cardinals missed 10 serves to help keep Dakota Prairie in it. But after taking an 8-3 lead in the set, they settled down enough to win by nine. In set two, things got off to a much better start as the Cards leaped out to a 10-3 lead then cruised to a victory. The third and decisive set saw the Knights stay right with the

Cards in the early stages, but the Lady Cards came up with one of their patented runs of 13-2, moving the score from 10-9 to 24-11 in the blink of an eye. The Cardinals were led in scoring by Callie Ronningen with 13 kills, while Cora Badding had a career high 10 kills. Calyn Crockett finished with a double-double with 31 assists and 10 digs. Langdon-Edmore-Munich served just over 80 percent for the match with 12 service aces, paced by five from Lexi Olson. Cards libero Kaitlynn Scheer had a team high 13 digs, followed by Crockett and Kaylee Lowery with 10 apiece.

LANGDON-EDMORE-MUNICH 25-25-25, DAKOTA PRAIRIE 16-9-12 Kills -- LEM: 43 (Callie Ronningen 13, Cora Badding 10, Lexi Olson 7, Morgan Freije 7); DP: 6 (Carly Lippert 2) Assists -- LEM: 40 (Calyn Crockett 31, Kaylee Lowery 4); DP: 5 (Marit Ellingson 2) Aces -- LEM: 12 (Olson 5, Crockett 3); DP: 3 Digs -- LEM: 56 (Scherr 13, Crockett 10, Lowery 10)

Langdon-Edmore-Munich 2525-25, Benson County 8-14-11 In the semifinals versus the Wildcats, the Cardinals served a little better at 87 percent and smoked 20

service aces for the match. Langdon-Edmore-Munich had a tremendous start in set one, blowing out to a 17-2 lead, with contributions coming from all over the lineup. The second set would be the most competitive of the night, as Benson County went out to a 9-5 lead before a Cardinals 9-1 run gave them the lead for good. Langdon-EdmoreMunich would have comfortable leads of 8-2 and 18-7 in the final set to win by a sweep. Callie Ronningen, again, led the Lady Cards in scoring with 12 kills, with Cora Badding having six. Setter Calyn Crockett had a great night with team highs of 29 assists and seven service aces. Kaitlynn Scherr led the way with 15 and 14 digs, respectively. Desidy Schwanke and Maegen Parent each had three kills to lead the Wildcats.

Jake’s take on sports

By Jake Kulland

Another surreal week for Cardinals athletics We come to you with lots of good news once again this week. The Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals football team absolutely destroyed a very good Lisbon team in the semifinals of the Class A 11-Man Football Playoffs to advance to their third Dakota Bowl at the Fargodome and also their third straight championship game. The Cards played Minot Ryan on November 15 for what was hoped to be their second straight, back-toback football titles. Also Cavalier made it to the Dome for the first time in a couple of years to play Kidder County for the 9-Man championship the same day. It's just great stuff to see teams that are just 33 miles apart both make it to title football games, something that doesn't happen everyday that's for sure. While football was winding up its season, the State B Volleyball Tournament is set to start, also at the Fargodome on November 21-23. The Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals volleyball squad was one step away from making their fourth straight state tourney, as they played North Star once again for the Region 4 Championship in Devils Lake on November 14. It has been another fantastic year for Lady Cards Volleyball,

as their record was 36-3 going into the region title match. We will let you know how they did next week. Girls Basketball to crank up It's not a War and Peace or Behind the Music length of a column this week, as we are getting ready to cover all of the sporting events mentioned above in a few moments as we type out this week's words. We will leave with the information that girls basketball begins practice across the state of North Dakota on November 18. Langdon-Edmore-Munich, who was

ranked second statewide in a preseason power poll, may have practice pushed back a bit if the girls make the State Volleyball Tourney, but Cardinals basketball coach Rob Scherr is very used to having to wait, and it, of course, is for a very good reason. The Lady Cards first basketball game is December 6 at home versus North Border, and Shiloh Christian comes all the way up from Bismarck to play in Langdon the afternoon of December 7. "See ya!" next week!

Irrigation Workshop Set in December

The weather this year has presented many challenges, including a cold, late spring that delayed planting and excess rain starting in late July that significantly affected the harvest season. “However, there is a future upside to excess rain in that it recharges both the subsoil in the root zone and fills the aquifers used for irrigation,” says Tom Scherer, North Dakota State University Extension agricultural engineer. Technology developments applied to water storage structures for irrigation and using subsurface tile for subirrigation will be the highlights of the NDSU Extension irrigation workshop being held Dec. 5 in Bismarck, N.D. Irrigation provides more consistent crop production on a year-toyear basis, allows growth of longerseason crops, diversifies the farm enterprise and provides a consistent supply of forage for animal operations. However, North Dakota typically has excess water in the spring followed by a dry July and August, when crops are maturing and using the most water. Finding ways to store excess water for later use in the growing season is one way to ensure a reliable irrigation water supply. “The competition for water is

increasing every year and access to good-quality water for expanding irrigated acres will become more difficult in the future,” Scherer says. “However, with a reliable water source, investing in irrigation is a great hedge against drought periods during the growing season.” The workshop will be in the Grand Pacific Room at the Best Western Ramkota Hotel in Bismarck. It will be held in conjunction with the North Dakota Water Users Association convention. NDSU Extension and the North Dakota Irrigation Association sponsor the workshop. An irrigation exposition for suppliers to display their products and services will be held at the same time. The registration fee of $30 is payable at the door and includes lunch. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. and workshop presentations begin at 8:30 a.m. The morning session will include remote monitoring of aquifer water levels, using the local terrain to develop water storage structures, using spring snowmelt water to recharge an aquifer, an update on the North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network (NDAWN) and three presentations by farmers using their drain tile systems to subirrigate.

Extent of soil salinity and sodicity in Northeast North Dakota in 2018 by Naeem Kalwar, Extension Soil Health Specialist, LREC Soil salinity and sodicity are two critical soil health issues producers face in northeast North Dakota. Both result in poor stands or barren spots, especially along the headlands. As per the 2019 NDSU projected crop budgets for NE North Dakota, producers spend an average of $82 to $187 per acre just to plant soybean, spring wheat, canola and corn. That is a net loss on these areas. It is estimated that at least 15% of the crop land out of a total of 39 million acres in our State is affected by salinity. That will be about six million acres. Excessive levels of water soluble salts result in salinity and deprive plants of water as salts compete with plant roots for water. Soil sodicity is caused by excessive levels of sodium (Na+) that is attracted to the negative charges of soil clay and humus particles and is not present as a salt. Sodicity makes the soil layers tight by causing “dispersion and swelling”. Sodicity will happen if calcium (Ca2+) levels are lower than sodium. In additions, higher magnesium (Mg2+) levels than calcium in the soil exchange complex can also lead to excessive swelling resulting in dense soil layers, especially in case of shrinking and expanding type of clayey soils. Occurrence of high magnesium levels compared to calcium resulting in dense soil layers in the Red River Valley had been reported by Ellis and Caldwell in 1935 and Clayton in 1936. Remediation of salinity and sodicity start by sampling the problem areas three to four-feet deep and analyzing all samples and depths for Electrical Conductivity or EC to assess salinity, Sodium Adsorption Ratio or SAR to assess sodicity and pH by using “Saturated Paste Extract Method”. SAR analysis will also provide individual levels of Ca2+, Mg 2+ and Na+, which could be used to determine if Mg2+ levels are higher than Ca2+. If sodicity is established, in order to calculate the rates of soil amendments like gypsum that add Ca2+ to the soils, 0-12-inch depths will also need to be analyzed for Cation Exchange Capacity or CEC by using “Sodium Saturation and Ammonium Extraction Method”. Analyzing the problem areas for salinity, sodicity and in some cases high magnesium levels provides producers a basis to establish a remediation plan. Sensing the need, the NDSU Langdon Research Extension Center, NDSU Extension and in some cases crop consultants have been helping producers with sampling and analyzing the unpro-

Midwest AgEnergy Group (MAG), the parent company to ethanol biorefineries, Blue Flint, near Underwood, ND and Dakota Spirit, near Spiritwood, ND today announced it is taking the next step in a feasibility level study on Carbon Capture and Storage. The Blue Flint Ethanol facility near Underwood, ND purchases about 25 million bushels of corn and produces over 70 million gallons of ethanol along with about 200,000 tons of dry distillers grains each year. It also produces about 200,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2). The company is investigating the potential to capture the CO2 from the plant and safely sequester it from the atmosphere. Geologic Storage is the process of injecting CO2 captured from an industrial or energy-related source into deep subsurface rock formations for long-term storage. This is part of a process frequently referred to as “carbon capture and storage” or CCS. Preventing CO2 from entering the atmosphere will decrease the carbon intensity of ethanol fuel produced at the facility. The project

could also create federal income tax credits for investors. “We had the Energy and Environmental Research Center (EERC) conduct a technical feasibility study on the geology surrounding our site for its potential to safely store CO2 from Blue Flint. They concluded that CCS appears technically viable but need much more detailed information about the geology in the area surrounding the plant” said Adam Dunlop – Director of Regulatory and Technical Services at MAG. The next step will be a geophysical survey to gather information about rock formations buried deep beneath the plant and surrounding area. MAG plans to contract with geophysicists who will use vibrations to study the geology in about a nine square mile area surrounding the plant. The survey method is similar to what is used for oil and gas exploration and is commonly completed in western ND. Analysis of the data collected in the study will help to determine if CO2 storage is possible and could lead to additional investigations.

NDSU Extension Notes

ductive areas three to four-feet deep since 2012. In 2018, however, this activity reached its peak as the Langdon Research Extension Center acquired a new pick up mounted soil probe. A total of 40 producers were helped in nine Counties in northeast North Dakota with sampling 136 unproductive sites. Sampling was followed up by a detailed explanation of soil results along with suggestions for remediation. The 2018 results of 133 producer soil samples confirmed the high levels of salinity, sodicity and excessive Mg2+ versus Ca2+ contrary to the common belief that they are not serious soil health issues in the northeast (Graph 1). Though some individual EC levels were higher than 20.0 dS/m, however, even the average EC of the 133 samples for the 0-12-inch depth was 8.96 (dS/m), which is not even suitable for the most salt-tolerant annual crops like barley, oat and sugarbeet. EC levels decreased with depths with an average of 7.13 dS/m (1224-inch), 6.43 dS/m (24-36-inch) and 6.32 dS/m (36-48-inch). At these salt levels, producers will be better off planting a mix of perennial salt-tolerant grasses like Tall Wheatgrass, Slender Wheatgrass, Western Wheatgrass, Green Wheatgrass (AC Saltlander) and Russian Wildrye. These grasses will establish in about a year, reduce evaporation, use excess water, add biomass, induce increased microbial activity and could be hayed, grazed or mowed. The soil SAR levels also were found to be the highest in the 0-12inch depths with an average of 10.74 for the 133 samples. These SAR results confirmed the sodicity issues in northeast and will require application of soil amendments like gypsum, which will add Ca2+ to the soils. The average SAR levels for the 12-24-inch, 24-36-inch and 36-48-inch depths were 9.17, 8.25 and 8.33 respectively for the 133 samples. High SAR results are also reflected by the high average Na+ (Meq/L) levels compared to average Ca2+ (Meq/L). Higher Ca2+ levels versus Na+ will prevent sodicity from happening.

(excluding the results of three samples) that were taken in 2018. Though not as widespread as sodicity, higher Mg2+ versus Ca2+ levels were also found to be an issue, which may need application of amendments that add Ca2+. The higher levels of Na+ and Mg2+ versus Ca2+ and the need for the amendment application to correct these issues also highlights the importance of analyzing the true soil CEC by using “Sodium Saturation and Ammonium Extraction Method”. The common Addition or Summation Method generally results in artificially high CEC values, especially if salt levels are high, which is the case for almost all of the unproductive areas in the northeast. Higher CEC values will calculate higher rates of soil amendments that are not needed, however, will cost more. The average soil CEC of 133 samples was 25.40 Meq/L. The average soil pH levels were alkaline and were 7.93 for 0-12-inch, 8.11 for 12-24-inch, 8.09 for 24-36inch and 8.05 for 36-48-inch depths. The 2018 results highlight the importance of sampling the areas that either do not produce anything or produce way below the yield potential three to four-feet deep in 12-inch increments and analyzing the samples for EC, SAR and pH by using the Saturated Paste Extract Method and CEC by using Sodium Saturation and Ammonium Extraction Method. That is especially important as often there are no clear visual symptoms of sodicity and high Mg2+ issues at the soil surface. For salinity, salts may form a visible crust at the soil surface when excess water evaporates, however, analyzing the samples for EC will help determine, which crop/grass type will actually have a chance to get establish.

By Rita Maisel

Both last week’s column and this week’s have been sandwiched between the eye drop routine that precedes and follows cataract surgery so will spare you the details. The pre-op literature plus stories of family and friends had prepared me to sleep through this event. As it happened, there are newer methods in use today, so I was wide awake to hear the operation room chatter and hungry enough to enjoy a good lunch before making the trip home. For those who told me they drove home from similar surgery, I left that challenge to the bus driver. Some earlier comments on impeachment led readers to ask why I had not included former President Richard Nixon in the story. The truth is that while the media of his era did use that word off and on for about two years, President Nixon resigned his office in 1974, and the nation was spared many hours of impeachment proceedings. Ongoing at the time were the Watergate Hearings which kept American viewers glued to their television sets during that same general time period and indicted many of the key players in that scandal. The controversy coined a new word “unindicted co-conspirator” for President Nixon. At issue were tapes of a conversation with the President and others involved in Watergate that contained probable grounds for impeachment. Tom Brokaw has a new book out on his years with the press corps during the Nixon presidency which is available at the Cavalier County Library for those who would like to read more on this topic. 1880s Weather When researching the topic of historically severe weather hampering farmers and the rest of us, the years 1936 and 2019 appeared to be some of the worst on record. Another era that ranks right up there with current and past weather records came just before and after statehood. Being a territory and then a newly organized state, record keeping was minimal, and many of the stories might have been in the very early newspapers but just missed getting into the record books through oversight or lack of essen-

tial statistics. In the early 1970s Mildred Rutledge assigned me to read some of the earliest Cavalier County newspapers in search of good stories that we could use someday in a local centennial book. I am sure she mentioned this task to others as well, and because of the people who did study the fragile and now fragmented papers, many important stories surfaced. Fortunately, a lot of those stories did make their way into the various centennial books. When you read the life stories of early pioneers, you will often find a statement about pioneer life being so difficult that many of the earliest settlers wished they could go back to Norway, Germany, Iceland, Ontario and so on. There would be tales of both individuals and entire families who had gambled on a better life in Dakota Territory and spent all the money they had or could borrow just getting here. When disasters struck, they simply did not have the money to return home. A lady from England had written a letter to family there asking for money for possibly a return trip but did not have the money for a stamp. Later she wrote that her husband received pay for work he had done, and I believe they remained in Cavalier County the rest of their lives. Some mentioned feeling trapped by a lifestyle that differed from what they had known in the country where they were born. Weather was a major factor in this frustrating existence and so was the fact that they may previously have lived primarily in cities and now they were out on the open prairie in a hastily built shack or sod house attempting to follow an occupation they knew very little about – farming. Those coming from Canada or eastern states may have been shopkeepers, masons or carpenters, politicians, bankers, teachers, and so on. Others might have worked in mines or been part of the armies each nation raised to protect their ever-changing borders. Many of the Scandinavian settlers had been fishermen. Two groups who came to Cavalier County had spent a generation or more in the logging and lumber industries in different parts of Ontario helping to clear the land for farming. We know Germany, France and England had factories. A greatgrandfather in our family had worked in a factory in Germany described as a “mill”. Because of

wars and religious opposition that group of immigrants took apart the mill in Germany and immigrated as a group to Elmira, Ontario, where they rebuilt the mill and continued to operate it. That building was still standing when I visited the town in the 1970s. Inquiring about what product they had produced, I was told cloth or yarn, but whether these items were plant or animal based was never uncovered. Today Canada produces many yarns including acrylics which initially were a by-product of forest wastes. Others from France built mills which produced a special kind of jacquard blankets which came to Pembina and Cavalier counties as part of homesteaders’ household belongings. The design of the weaving was unique, and several of these blankets are displayed in North Dakota museums today – often with the name and date of the couple who might have received the blanket as a wedding gift. Other factory-related immigrants were French Canadians whose parents had settled in the province of Quebec. During and following the Civil War, families migrated into the New England states to replace the workers who were in military service. Men, women and children worked in these factories under unsafe conditions and for very low wages. Several local families have ancestors who left that work and came west on some of the earliest railroad lines to our area. A comment made in more than one story told of the trains being so slow that at times they got off and walked alongside for exercise. Food for the travelers had to be purchased or brought along. They welcomed even a short stop along the way when they could pick berries to add to their meals. Three of my great-grandfathers had military training in various parts of the German Empire, and two of them had additional service in the Civil War shortly after arrival. Many of the Civil War veterans were not paid while in service but did receive a tract of land in lieu of unpaid salary at the end of the war. Sometimes this “pay” was received as much as a generation after the war service and might be in

the form of a tree claim given to the widow and children. Notations of this kind appeared in several deeds on file in the county recorder’s older books. My brother and I had three sets of grandparents, since our father was adopted as a small child, and grew up knowing some of the stories of all the families. Two of those grandfathers had been apprenticed to blacksmiths and the third one, growing up in Switzerland, had been apprenticed to a bakery. The blacksmiths had no trouble finding word in farming country and initially got their start helping to produce and repair farm equipment. The one trained as a baker came on his own from Switzerland because his father had settled south of Jamestown and was, at that time, trying to raise cattle. Neither of those ancestors had previous farming experience and had to learn by doing. Like many others, their farming stories were trial and error tales. Fortunately, most of the early homesteaders were young and healthy because the tasks of breaking the sod, planting crops that blew away in the strong winds, building shelters, planting gardentype crops for food and other unusual chores had to be learned to survive. E. J. Fox, who was Langdon’s first permanent resident, kept a journal in which he told about a diet of moose and samp he survived on with no nearby stores for groceries. Samp was the name for syrup (not readily available) poured on bread (baked by a lady three miles east of Langdon) and eaten with moose meat cooked on top of the shack’s heater – lacking an oven. Fox was one of several early residents who had a classical education of that time in Ontario so was able to teach school, work at the courthouse and make a living without relying solely on farming knowledge. Another who felt over-educated in the wrong things was Fred Borusky who spoke several languages when he came to teach at Olga – none of them the French Canadian or native dialects his pupils spoke. Both Fred and his mother homesteaded land they rented to other farmers. Fred entered politics and had other occupations to fall back on along

with assisting at the Borusky Hospital which his wife opened in their home. She was a legendary nurse and midwife in Langdon. Each family has stories of homesteading ancestors who used the talents and training they had to farm, become carpenters, teach, open banks, operate dry goods and grocery stores. Several young men read law under the tutelage of attorneys and joined that status themselves, while others began as a deputy sheriff and moved up the line in law enforcement. An early doctor got much of his training from books and watching others operate – or so the story goes. The storms of the 1880s became legendary. One known as the Children’s Blizzard recorded the deaths of 200 children in North and South Dakota because it came about the time school was dismissed and children were lost trying to find their homes. Crops were lost when the wheat froze year after year. Many did not have funds to purchase horses or oxen to till the soil. Interest rates on machinery were very high, and without the needed implements, some farmers simply could not feed their families. The years 1888 and 1889 are spoken of as baby-boom years, and knowing family members and neighbors born in those years, there are memories of them bragging about their longevity. One born in that era told me with twinkling eyes about a quarter of land near the homesteads of his father and grandfather. A single man had homesteaded that land, and after a particularly bad blizzard, family members had gone to the farm to see how the young man had weathered the storm. They found his lifeless body, a storm victim. A trip was made to Langdon to report this to the sheriff, and since the former neighbor had no relatives in the area, his land was now available for pre-emption. The man telling me the story shared that he now owned that quarter of land which might still be owned by his own grandchildren. A quote from homesteading days was that many kept the Sabbath and anything else that came their way. In good or bad weather, it was survival of the fittest – lessons many farmers knew well.

Nowatzki called the meeting to order and led everyone into the Pledge of Allegiance. Approval of Minutes: L. Henry made the motion to approve the minutes from regular meeting on October 28, 2019, C. Schlittenhard seconded the motion. All members voted in favor. Additions to Agenda: Town Hall meeting. Correspondence: Department Reports: Street – J.

The commission will look at these, tabled until next meeting. L. Henry stated that he had accepted a letter of resignation from Judy and that we will get an ad in the paper for this position. Fire – No report. Police – No report. Auditor Report – R. Hoffarth reported that she had attended the Main Street Summit last week; it was a great conference. Hoffarth informed the board that she would like the City of Langdon to become a Main Street Initiative city. This gives the City a better chance at qualifying for grants and all it takes is a proclamation. Unfinished Business: Moore EngineeringWater Supply Improvements –

Pump House & Connection to Rural Water – RD Project Lime Sludge Pond Project update/status: (Witzel Construction) – prepared the change order for Witzel to add gravel to the access road. This was discussed in September; amount is $2160.00. This change order does not have a bearing on the cost of engineering services for the project. J. Rademacher made the motion to approve the change order to add gravel to access road. Seconded by L. Henry. All members voted in favor. Phase 1 - Sewer, Water, Storm Water Improvements – RD Project (Quam Construction) Need to prepare letter regarding date for defective work to be corrected. Will work with Quentin on this item. Phase 2 - Sewer, Water, Storm Water Improvements – RD Project (Spruce Valley) Change Order 4 – addition of 6” inches of aggregate to the base course on 5th Street from 12th Avenue to 14th Avenue. This were the two clocks that did not have the recycled aggregate on them prior to the October snow storm, and were a muddy mess as a result. This was necessary in the attempt to prepare those two blocks for paving in the fall of 2019. • This was pre-approved by Rural Development in order to facilitate the prep work for that street. Amount is $26,220.00, this change order does not have a bearing on the cost of engineering services for the project. C. Schlittenhard made the motion to approve the $26,220 change order, seconded by L. Henry. All members voted in favor. Change Order 5 – time extension for work not able to be completed due to weather in the fall of 2019. Moves the milestone date for all remaining work to match the milestone for completion of the final lift of asphalt, that being June 12, 2020. Does not change the contract price.

Contractor application for payment #5 – for work completed up to November 1, 2019 in the amount of #393,127.43. C. Schlittenhard made the motion to approve contractor payment #5, seconded by L. Henry. All members voted in favor. ND Department of Environmental Quality – Clean Water State Revolving Fund questionnaires. Clean Water in this case refers to sanitary and storm sewers. The Department of Environmental Quality solicits projects to be included on the priority list for low interest loan dollars (2.0% interest rate). Placing projects on the list does not obligate the City to do any projects; it only makes the loan dollars available. We have included projects in previous years as well. The attached questionnaire is essentially for another underground utility phase. City Hall Renovation update – L. Henry reported they will be pouring concrete next week. He will also be getting an estimate to spray foam the ceiling for more efficiency. New Business: Ordinance 6.0105 – a large group of business owners attended the meeting regarding to the ordinance that states: Each business located within the City of Langdon's commercial zones shall be required to pay either their actual use of water, sewer, and garbage service, or the minimum charge by the City, whichever is greater on a water, sewer, or garbage service. Each business located within the commercial zones of the City of Langdon shall be subject to a minimum fee regardless of the fact of whether or not there is a separate meter or separate sewer hookup for a particular business. However, businesses that do not have a direct hookup in their business will be required to pay a utility usage minimum fee in addition to full garbage, special fees, and other miscellaneous fees as determined by the Langdon City Commission. Businesses owned by the same entity, located on the same premises and sharing the same employees shall not be construed as separate businesses. There was much discussion from both the Commission and the busi-

ness owners when J. Nowatzki requested to table the discussion; business owners agreed to attend next meeting. L. Buchweitz asked that ordinance 3.0301-310 also be looked at and updated. JDA request – S. Duerr is making request for up to $24,999 for a flex pace interest buy down loan for Jeff Mostad for the purchase of a 19-unit apartment building, North Star Manor. L.

Cards of Thanks

PLETCHER – A Sincere Thank You from the Pletcher Family! Most of you probably know that we will be moving to Texas in early January. What you may not know is just over a year ago, Hilari’s dad had a major stroke. It was hard on us as a family to not be there with him. It has been hard on us to see our family as infrequently as we do. As a result, we started praying for God to give us more opportunities to see our family. As many of you know, sometimes the way God answers a prayer is unexpected and causes a little restlessness. This is how we felt when a pastor from Texas reached out to me about a preaching role at their church. This pastor unexpectedly ended up in Langdon and in our church on a Sunday. The next day he reached out to me and the process began. Our family was not looking to leave Langdon, but we could not ignore the ways in which God started opening doors. As we continued to pray, God con-

tinued to orchestrate things that caused us to move forward in the process. One thing that stood out was how close our family would be to us in proximity to this church in Texas. We prayed with the leadership of First Baptist Church of Langdon. We eventually visited the church in Texas. And, after our visit and much prayer, I agreed to take this new role of preaching pastor at this church down south. We believe that God has led us to this move by the way the circumstances have opened up and taken place. This has been a very emotional process and is a bittersweet move for us. We are sad because we absolutely love Langdon and all the people of this wonderful city. Our church family has been such a blessing. They have adopted us as their own and loved us tremendously. We have wonderful neighbors that we will miss, 9th Street Rocks! The schools, ﬁlled with outstanding teachers and coaches, have loved our children and made such an impact upon them. Hilari will miss working at the school and the many students she taught there and through her Music Studio. We will miss the countless hours spent with friends at volleyball, basketball, and track tournaments and games. We have made so many friends here, and we will miss you all immensely. We will be forever grateful for our time in Langdon. What a blessing it has been to be a part of this community. We wanted to say thank you, Langdon. We love you all very much. We will be leaving a piece of our heart here. And, we will continue to pray God’s blessings upon you all! Sincerely, The Pletcher Family _______________________________

Solider Coming Home

On Monday, November 11, 2019, Sergeant (E5) Josh Metzger, a veteran of the North Dakota National Guard, walked in the bitter cold to honor every veteran’s desire to come home. Metzger served for 12 years from 2003 until his discharge in 2015. During his time in the Guards, Metzger learned first-hand how badly the desire to come home is during a deployment. “I was walking home. All veterans - they long to be home, and they will do anything to get home and go to any lengths to get home,” Metzger shared. While the temperature during the walk from Langdon to Nekoma was recorded at 9 degrees above, the real feel was -16. In his fatigues and boots, Metzger made the trek in just about four long hours. “Thanks for all the honks and waves. That’s pretty much what kept me going,” Metzger said.

I leaned over and looked at my alarm clock. I plopped my head back on my pillow. I did not need to be awake at 5 a.m. on a Sunday morning. The previous evening, we had moved all the clocks back an hour to switch from Daylight Saving Time to Daylight Standard Time. In anticipation of the time change, I stayed up a little late because I would have an extra hour to sleep. That didn’t work. At 5 a.m., my body thought it was 6 a.m., my usual wake-up time. My brain was wide awake, but my body was unwilling to move. I ﬂipped over, closed my eyes and tried to make myself fall asleep. That really didn’t work at all. Eventually, I gave up and went downstairs, trying not to awaken the rest of my family or our dogs. I resisted taking a nap later in the day. However, by midafternoon, I was dragging because of my sleep deﬁcit. I stayed up a little late again that night. Unfortunately, the next morning, I woke up at 4:30 a.m. This was getting worse. Fortunately, by the third day, I had adjusted. Adjusting to time changes usu-

ally takes one to two days. We adults need seven to nine hours of sleep per night to function at our best. Too little sleep can have many effects on our health, including weakening our immunity. Long term lack of sleep can increase our risk for chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Too little sleep also can promote weight gain. According to the latest guidance, adults ages 26 to 64 need seven to nine hours, and older adults (ages 65-plus) need seven to eight hours. On the positive side, a couple of “catnaps” of 20 to 30 minutes in the morning and/or afternoon are OK, according to researchers. If you have occasional sleep issues, you are not alone. At least 50 million Americans have some type of sleep disorder. Consider these tips: 1) Do your best to stick to a sleep schedule, even on weekends. If your sleep schedule has fallen outside of normal, make small changes. Maybe you are a night owl who usually goes to bed at midnight but you set a goal to go to sleep at 10:30 p.m. so you function better during the day. Try changing your bedtime by just 15 minutes a night. 2) Be aware of what you eat and drink because some foods and beverages will rob you of shut-eye. We are all different in what our bodies tolerate. Having too much caffeine and alcohol can lead to nighttime restlessness for most people. Watch out for cola, chocolate and high-fat foods. 3) Create comfortable sleeping quarters. A comfortable mattress and pillows are keys to good sleep. Be sure your bedroom is at the appropriate temperature: not too warm or too cold. A cooler room (between 60 and 67 degrees) helps promote snoozing. Babies and young children, however, may need slightly higher temperatures (65 to 70 degrees). 4) Turn off the TV, cellphones or other personal electronic devices. Better yet: Plug your phone in an

outlet in another room. Artificial light from all kinds of screens can affect our sleep. Many kids like to have constant contact with their friends on phones and iPads. Consider moving all screens out of their room to promote their wellbeing and ability to learn. 5) Add some ambience to your sleeping quarters. Calm music, nature sounds or “white noise” works well for some people. 6) Practice a relaxing bedtime ritual. Read a little while. If your mind goes into overload when you lie down to rest, make a list of things that you will take care of the next day. Then close your notebook and put aside your worries. 7) Take some deep breaths. Breathe in for a count of three and exhale for a count of three. Do five sets of these breathing exercises. Focusing on your breathing can be very calming. If you have ongoing issues with sleep, be sure to discuss them with your medical care provider to learn about potential treatments. You can gather many more sleep tips at the National Sleep Foundation website (https://www.sleepfoundation.org/). I like to enjoy a small cup of herbal tea, such as chamomile or lavender, before I go to bed. I find it to be a relaxing ritual. If you need a bedtime snack, try prepackaging 100-calorie snacks such as this recipe. Or have a small bowl of cereal and milk. Do It Yourself Snack Mix 1 c. whole-grain cereal with fruit 1 c. Chex-type bran cereal 1 c. Cheerios 1/4 c. raisins or dried cranberries 1/4 c. peanuts 1/4 c. shredded coconut Mix together. If desired, prepackage in sandwich bags.
