At approximately 4:30 p.m. on
Thursday, July 4, park rangers re-
ceived a report that a helicopter
had made a precautionary landing
southeast of the Big Badlands
Overlook.
The pilot landed the helicopter
safely and no one was injured.
The helicopter was on a sight-
seeing tour over Badlands Na-
tional Park at the time of the inci-
dent.
In addition to the pilot, two pas-
sengers were on board the Bad-
lands Helicopters flight.
The passengers were flown out
of the park on another helicopter.
The grounded aircraft remains
in the park at this time but is not
readily visible from viewpoints
along the Badlands Loop Road.
Badlands Helicopters is an au-
thorized park concessionaire that
takes visitors on scenic overflights.
Owner Mike Jacobs is working
closely with park rangers to repair
the aircraft and remove it without
damaging park resources.B o t h
the FAA and the NTSB were noti-
fied of the incident.

PVFD also covered the cost of in-
surance.
Early ordering earns a discount
so the PVFD can bring in the vari-
ous single shots, including some
six inchers, and the many multi-
shot batteries commonly called
cakes. Before and after the huge
main event, kids shot off their own
fireworks.
Many boats dotted the lake dur-
ing the show. Afterwards, many
viewers left, though many stayed
behind in campers.

A Buffalo County child is South
Dakotas first human West Nile
virus (WNV) detection of the sea-
son, the state Health Department
reported today. The person is in
the 10 to 19 age group.
West Nile positive mosquitoes
and now a sick individual indicate
the active transmission of West
Nile virus in South Dakota and
people need to protect themselves,
especially during evening outdoor
activities, such as 4th of July fire-
works shows said Dr. Lon
Kightlinger, State Epidemiologist
for the department.
To prevent mosquito bites and
reduce the risk of WNV, the de-
partment recommends the follow-
First human West Nile case of 2013 reported
ing personal precautions:
Use mosquito repellents
(DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eu-
calyptus, or IR3535) and limit ex-
posure by wearing pants and long
sleeves in the evening.
Limit time outdoors from dusk
to midnight when Culex mosqui-
toes are most active.
Get rid of standing water that
gives mosquitoes a place to breed.
Support local mosquito control
efforts.
Personal precautions are espe-
cially important for those at high
risk for WNV people over 50,
pregnant women, transplant pa-
tients, individuals with diabetes or
high blood pressure, and those
with a history of alcohol abuse.
People with severe or unusual
headaches should see their physi-
cians.
Three mosquito pools have
tested positive for WNV so far this
season in South Dakota, two in
Brookings County and one in
Hughes County. All of the positive
pools were Culex tarsalis, the pri-
mary carrier of the virus in South
Dakota.
Find WNV prevention informa-
tion on the Web at http://westnile.
sd.gov.
Information is also available
from the SDSU Cooperative Ex-
tension Service at http://www.sd-
state.edu/sdces/issues/wnv.cfm.
Educational and recreational
programming in South Dakota's
state parks will be increasing dur-
ing the busy summer camping sea-
son. A number of parks are offering
programs that allow visitors to join
a guided hike, cook over the camp-
fire or learn the history of a fa-
vorite park.

Cool Summertime Treats
During summer months,
whether were young or young at
heart, most of us look forward to a
cool dairy treat on a warm day.
Dairy treats, like low-fat frozen
yogurt, are not only dairy-licious-
they are a way to consume dairy
foods that provide many health
benefits.
Consuming dairy products can
reduce the risk of cardiovascular
disease, osteoporosis, high blood
pressure and type-2 diabetes.
Adult men and women need
enough dairy foods to equal three
cups of milk a day.
The American Academy of Pedi-
atrics (http://www.aap.org) recom-
mends that infants drink breast
milk or iron-fortified formula dur-
ing their first year of life. Children
between one and two years should
drink whole milk. Children older
than two years should drink low-
fat milk.
The dairy group provides nutri-
ents that are vital for health and
maintenance of our bodies. They
include calcium, vitamin D, pro-
tein and potassium. Calcium is the
most important nutrient found in
dairy foods. It helps grow healthy
bones and teeth in young children
and youth.
In later years, it helps adults
keep their bone mass high, de-
creasing the risk of developing
weak bones and future bone health
problems. Calcium is also needed
for muscle function, nerve function
and blood clotting.
Protein is an energy source that
helps build and repair muscles.
Vitamin D in some dairy foods
helps your body use calcium better.
Potassium helps maintain a
healthy blood pressure and re-
duces the risk of having a stroke.
Foods made from milk that re-
tain their calcium content are part
of the dairy group.
Foods made from milk with lit-
tle or no calcium such as cream,
cream cheese and butter are not
part of the dairy group.
By choosing low-fat and fat-free
versions of dairy foods, you can cut
back on your fat intake while en-
joying the health benefits of these
foods.
Always check food labels to
make sure you are purchasing
healthy dairy choices.
Healthy dairy snack ideas for
summertime include:
Mix fat-free milk, frozen or
fresh fruit and ice cubes in a
blender for a simple smoothie
Low-fat frozen yogurt
Low-fat or fat-free ice cream
Berries blended in low-fat milk
Frozen yogurt pops
Smoothie pops (use your fa-
vorite fruit, low-fat milk or yogurt)
Mix low-fat yogurt with fresh
fruit
There are milk alternatives for
individuals who do not digest lac-
tose very well.
Try lactose-free milk products,
soy milk, almond milk fortified
with calcium or rice milk.
To obtain a delicious, easy
smoothie recipe check out the Uni-
versity of Vermont Extensions
publication, Fruit Smoothies (ht
tp://bit.ly/190LHyO).

Batting for a Cause
Like many South Dakotans, I
enjoy spending the summer
evenings outside and at the ball
fields on the weekends.
Although Im away from family
while Im in D.C., I do try to run
outside to get a breath of fresh air
or find an opportunity to spend
some time outdoors.
I recently had the opportunity to
play in the Congressional Womens
Softball Game, an annual event
where female lawmakers team up
and play female members of the
media in a softball game for char-
ity.
This wasnt a task we took
lightly. Starting months ago, we
began practices at 7 a.m., Tuesday
and Thursday mornings to work
on our fundamentals, such as hit-
ting, grounding, throwing and
pitching.
It was also a great opportunity
for all of us to get to know one an-
other and to learn how to work to-
gether as a team.
When we took the field on game
day, more than 1,000 people were
in attendance.
All proceeds of the ticket sales
went to benefit the Young Survival
Coalition (YSC), a global organiza-
tion dedicated to critical issues
unique to young women who are
diagnosed with breast cancer. In
particular, the YSC offers re-
sources, connections and outreach
to young women with breast can-
cer.
While we may not agree on
every policy considered in Con-
gress, both Democratic and Repub-
lican women came together and
united for an incredible cause.
We can even agree with the
media on this one! According to the
American Cancer Society, about 12
percent of women in the United
States will develop invasive breast
cancer during their lifetime. Pre-
ceded by only lung cancer, breast
cancer is the second leading cause
of cancer death in women.
We ended up losing the game 11-
8, but at the end of the night it did-
nt matter who came out victori-
ous, because roughly $125,000 was
raised for the Young Survival
Coalition and a new coalition of fe-
males from both the House and
Senate was created.
I hope youll visit this website for
some photos of the game: http://ww

Summer is in full swing! As al-
ways, it is a great time to pick up
a book and read.
Through many recent conversa-
Get involved at the Wall Library
tions, I have discovered that many
people dont know how to get in-
volved with Wall Community Li-
brary. I decided that it might be
beneficial to inform everyone how
to join in on all of the fun:
Firstly, its important for you to
know that anyone can use our
computers and wi-fi.
You are not required to have a li-
brary card to use our brand new
computers.
Secondly, if you do want to check
out books, you need to have a li-
brary card.
All that you need to do to get a
library card is come into the li-
brary and let us know your contact
information.
If you already have a library
card but havent used it in a while,
check and make sure that all of
your information is updated to
match your current circumstances.
Thats all that you have to do!

The long prairie grass swayed in
the hot summer sun. The young
American Indian man, fasting and
praying as he watched the grass
dance in the wind, soon saw him-
self dancing in a similar manner.
But how could this be, since he
had been born without the full use
of his legs? The Medicine Man in
his village interpreted his vision.
The boy asked his mother to
make an outfit in which to dance
using the prairie grass. He was
covered from shoulder to ankle
with long, thick, bright multi-col-
ored fringes made of yarn or rib-
bon.
He showed his father how he
would dance, using much shoulder,
arm and head movements.
His footwork would appear like
he was stumbling. A song was com-
posed for him. He showed the vil-
lage his style of dance.
This is how the grass dance orig-
inated, according to American In-
dians in the Northern Plains.
The grass dance is one of the
dance styles common at a modern
powwow.
While a powwow is defined as a
gathering of American Indians and
can take place for many reasons, it
is often associated with dance.
Each session of a wacipi (the
Lakota word for powwow, pro-
nounced wah chee pea) begins
with the grand entry.
The eagle staff and various flags
lead the way into the dance arena.
The flags represent nations, fami-
The dancing feet of the powwow
lies and communities.
When the eagle staff is brought
into the area, powwow etiquette
requires spectators to stand and
remove their hats in respect.
Wacipi are open to visitors, but
everyone attending should follow
proper etiquette.
Veterans have an integral part
in powwows as they are honored
by leading the dancers into the
arena, said Francis Whitebird of
Saint Francis, an Indian educator
and former director of the South
Dakota Office of Tribal Relations.
Once all the dancers are in the
dance arena and while the specta-
tors are still standing, the flags are
raised and the flag song is sung.
This is followed by a veterans
honoring song.
The master of ceremonies is the
voice of the wacipi. This person
keeps the singers, dancers and the
general public informed as to what
is happening.
The oldest form of dancing is the
traditional dance. The men danced
in the middle of the dance arena
and the women stood on the side,
according to Whitebird.
In the mid to late 1950s, the
shawl dance for women and the
fancy dance for the men made
their appearance in Lakota coun-
try. The women joined the men
and danced in the middle of the
dance area, he said.
The mens northern traditional
style of dance was a form of story-
telling in which each warrior acted
out deeds committed during a bat-
tle or hunt.
Mens fancy dance is the most
contemporary style of dance. It is
the most strenuous and athletic of
the dances.
The dance is fast and features
jumps and twirling. The regalia is
said to represent the rainbow spir-
its with its bright colors and flying
feathers and ribbon.
The womens traditional dance
requires enormous stamina, con-
centration and grace. Dancers
stand on the outer edge of the
dance arena.
They barely move their feet and
gently bend their knees as they
move up and down in rhythm with
the drum.
Originating with the Ojibwe, the
womens jingle dress dance is a
healing dance.
According to one legend about
the jingle dress, a medicine man
was given a vision in which he saw
his daughter and three of her
friends dancing in dresses adorned
with jingles.
The jingle dress is made of a
cloth, velvet or leather base
adorned with jingles made out of a
shiny metal, usually chewing to-
bacco lids.
The dance is in a side-step
fashion designed to incorporate the
sound of the jingles by allowing
them to move.
The fancy shawl dance is the
most modern of the womens dance
styles.
It began when women started
wearing their shawls instead of
draping them over their arms
when dressed in their regalia.
Fancy does not refer to the shawl,
but to the foot work which involves
Modern dance.

kicks, twirls and fast movement.
The music in a wacipi comes pri-
marily from the drum groups who
circle the arena and play large,
specially designed drums and sing
traditional songs.
The clothing worn by dancers is
referred to as regalia, never cos-
tumes.
Good guests at a wacipi do not
touch the dancers regalia. The
master of ceremonies will make
announcements about etiquette
and the types of dances being per-
formed.
Indian dancing almost faded
out until contest dancing appeared
in the mid-1960s.
The interest in money and danc-
ing caught like wildfire and a
resurgence in dancing occurred,
Whitebird said.
What one sees at a powwow are
dancing feet, colorful regalia and
smiling faces.

A flurry of thunderstorms
sparked several small wildfires
throughout the Black Hills Na-
tional Forest on Thursday, July 4
prompting Federal, State and local
fire crews to take immediate ac-
tion to contain and control the in-
cidents.
Matters were complicated fur-
ther by a couple of small campfires
left burning and unattended.
The largest wildfire, the Horse
Trap Fire, occurred in very rugged
Forest Service terrain near Min-
nekahta Junction on Highway 18.
While this fire was initially esti-
mated at 3.5 acres, gusty winds
caused the fire to grow to 11 acres
overnight.
As of Friday, July 5 the fire was
estimated at 20 percent contained,
with control estimated sometime
tomorrow.
Other lightning-caused South-
ern Hills fires starting last night
included:
The Red Star Fire, occurring
near Pringle and burning a tenth
of acre
The 313 Fire, burning a third
of an acre near Carrol Creek Road
The Richardson Fire, located
west of Highway 89 near Pleasant
Valley
Wildfire threat still persists
All three of those incidents were
located on Forest Service land and
were quickly contained and con-
trolled by responding Federal,
State and local resources.
Additionally, two separate camp-
fires were left burning and unat-
tended on Forest Service land in
the Central Hills, but were imme-
diately put out upon detection by
responding Federal, State and
local resources.
In the Northern Hills, the Dog-
house Fire burned in an area three
miles southwest of Crow Peak,
while the Grand Canyon fire was
located between Grand Canyon
and Wagon Canyon along the
South Dakota/Wyoming border.
Both fires were located on Forest
Service land, grew to less than a
tenth of an acre in size, and were
quickly contained and controlled
by responding Federal, State and
local resources.
Visitors on the forest are re-
minded to please make sure your
campfires are dead-out and cold to
the touch before leaving them un-
attended.
Also, wet forests can dry quickly
and fires can still burn when com-
bined with significant amounts of
rain.

Elm Springs News
Submitted by Peggy Gravatt
Our congratulations go out to
Kelsey Arneson and Justin
Hansen on their marriage, Phil
and Mary Kay Wilson on becoming
grandparents again and to Stephie
Trask on the birth of little Winnie.
So many happy blessings happen-
ing in our little community.
It seems that the community of
Elm Springs managed to cram
their whole summer in to this past
week with all of the different
events and happenings.
Freddie and Sparky Ferguson
made their 13th annual appear-
ance portraying the Pony express
mail service in the Wasta 4th of
July parade. Fred reports that
Sparky may be holding out better
than he is. They also had a nice
bonus of a much welcomed rain
shower that delayed the start of
the parade for a few minutes.
Fred, without Sparky, attended
the Arneson Hansen wedding at
the Elm Springs Church on Friday
night. He also attended the annual
Ronald Regan Day Celebration at
the Pat Trasks Saturday enjoying
some good food and great fire-
works display. He reports that
Patrick Wilson can sure grill a
very, very good hamburger.
Lawrence Burke traveled to
Texas for a Burke family reunion
that was hosted by his niece in
Amarillo, Texas. A large number of
family members were present.
Lawrence was gone for 8 days and
reports that he was glad to be back
in sparsely populated S.D. gravel
roads and all! He also attended the
Arneson Hansen wedding.
The Morris Linn family at-
tended a Post 22 baseball game in
Rapid City on Wednesday night
with the Knuppes of New Under-
wood. Thursday they went to
Wasta for the parade. Shirrise and
the girls attended baby Winnie
Trasks meet and greet at Tom
and Shelia Trasks on Friday after-
noon before gathering up Morris to
attend the Arneson Hansen wed-
ding. The Linns attended the Si-
mons family reunion on Saturday
afternoon up at Union Center.
They then joined in fellowship on
the rim of the river for supper and
fireworks hosted by Pat and Rose-
Mary Trask. Shirrise said it was a
fabulous show of patriotism.
John and Jean Linn also were
guests at Kelsey and Justins wed-
ding and went on to the reception,
which was held in New Under-
wood. They also attended the pic-
nic and fireworks at the Trasks.
It was a busy week for the Philip
Wilsons as well complete with a
surprise trip to Coon Rapids,
Minn., on Sunday. Beth (Wilson)
and David Laschinger made Mary
Kay and Phil grandparents for the
fourth time. Little Penny Jean was
a little early, weighed 5 lbs. 11 oz.
Mother and baby are doing well.
Congratulations to the family!
The beginning of the week found
Mary Kay returning on Monday
from a 10 day trip to Minneapolis
and Pittsburg, Pa. She picked up
granddaughter Mary Wolberg in
Minn., and brought her home with
her for the week. On Wednesday,
they went to Rapid City to the
movies and on the 4th, they took in
the parade in Wasta and then took
a drive thru the Badlands. On Fri-
day, they also attended the meet
and greet for little Winnie Trask
followed by the wedding and recep-
tion for Kelsey and Justin. On Sat-
urday, Patrick and Lane Wilson
along with Joanie and Kevin How-
land spent the night after enjoying
the picnic and fireworks at the
Trasks.
The Gravatts were not able to
take in any of the local events, due
to working, haying and grandkids.
Amber Miller and family were
here for the week from Denver,
Colo. We did manage to go fossil
hunting down on the creek, tubing
on the Belle Fourche River and
even swimming in the stock tank.
Grant and Abby thought that was
pretty cool. We also took in grand-
son Steeles baseball game in
Rapid City on Saturday afternoon.
We have also been blessed to re-
ceive some more much needed rain
to keep things green.
Wasta Wanderings
Submitted by
Lloyd & Margee Willey
Wastas July 4th, Lifes lessons:
the rain that pounds down on your
parade may be the same rain that
puts out the fire on your neighbors
property.
The rain that delayed our pa-
rade for ten minutes did put out
the fire on the property of Malcolm
and Nola Price.
David Humphrey, driving the
Quinn fire truck, left the parade
line-up and headed out but re-
ceived the call that the fire was
out.
Darren Nachtigall waited pa-
tiently on the hotel front porch and
commented on how badly we
needed the rain and how he was
enjoying it!
Freddie Ferguson handed horse
candy to anyone near and kept
Sparky content.
No grumbling, no whining out of
these South Dakotans who showed
up here on the Day of Independ-
ence!
On the back porch were Celine
Trask, Parade Marshal, and her
crew, sisters Julie and Gemma,
sidekick Emily Linn and banner
bearers, Kassandra Linn and
Maria Trask. Morris and Shirrise
and baby Laken were also there,
as well as Kelly Linn and Jamy
Williams and baby Mavrick. They
were content to visit and watch the
rain!
Dick Hadlock reported his rain
gage had one half inch, (each). So
he was questioned if he had three
rain gages with one half inch each
did that total one and one half
inches?
Our flag bearers, Melanie
Weber, Billie and Katy Humphrey
found a good spot under Faye
Bryans tree. Faye had her mule
ready to go, but I think I saw her
waiting on her porch!
The rain just seemed to improve
peoples sense of fun it was
great! Anne Jo Clark from the Pen-
nington County Courant, was pres-
ent to take photos for the newspa-
per and while some ran for cover,
some just hung out.
Ron Racicky, wife Joan and mom
Natalie were enjoying the Junior
New Underwood Fire Department
and drivers pint size fire truck
and big sister (probably) with the
job of carrying the banner an-
nouncing same. Great kids!
Thank you all and special
thanks to DeLynn Willets for
bringing Good Samaritan resi-
dents to view the parade and then
to join the line-up! What troopers!
The parade was ready to march
at 10:40 ten minutes late but a
great morning! Lunch in the park
and games after and talent show
that evening finished the day.
More names will come to me as
my brain spot lights more happen-
ings to keep me smiling and full of
July 4th memories.
You are all so great and Lloyd
and I appreciate you so much.
Happy Trails!
PS: The talent show was won-
derful as is Dorothy Shearer
you are all greatly appreciated.
More next week.

On Thursday, July 4th, Steve
and Gayle Eisenbraun and two of
their grandchildren, Noah and
Emma Eisenbraun, went to
Mitchell, S.D., and Norfolk, Neb.
In Mitchell, they visited Travis,
Beth and Isaiah Eisenbraun, and
in Norfolk, Tyler, Wendi, Axton
and Alyvia Eisenbraun. On Sun-
day, they helped Alyvia celebrate
her second birthday. Norfolk has
great parks (one is a waterpark)
and magnificent displays of fire-
works.
Hope you had an enjoyable
Fourth of July. The towns of Inte-
rior and Wasta each had celebra-
tions which they do annually. All
reports were favorable from both
places. Wasta had their parade
disrupted by rain! Very unusual,
but bet the people didnt begrudge
the intrusion.
Kay and Leslie Williams had a
week with company, mostly Garys
family. Shauna, Luke, Remington
and Marlee Meyerink from Platte;
Tara and Allyna Andes from Geor-
gia; Jess of Sioux Falls and Gary,
Deb and Les.
We want to offer our condolences
to the Schulz families with the loss
of their sister Melodee Bartsch of
Gillette.
Monday morning, the Tiger
Band of Lake City, Minn., gave an
impromptu free concert on the
lawn in front of St. Patricks rec-
tory, Wall. There were 56 in the
band. They do competitive march-
ing and had won first place in
Rochester, Minn., before coming to
Wall. They had to get up early as
the Catholic women served them
all breakfast before their 8:00 a.m.
appearance to perform. From Wall,
they were on their way to Cody,
Wyo.
Congratulations go out to the
Pat Guptill family for receiving the
2013 South Dakota Leopold Con-
servation Award!
Mark and Darlene Poste stopped
on Sunday. They brought their
camper to set up so they are all
ready for Walls Celebration week-
end.
Mr. Bartling, with the Gideons,
was the speaker at the Methodist
Churches, Wall and Wasta, on
Sunday. Pastor Darwin Kopfmann
had prior commitments.
Dawna Estes Tsitrian reports
that Pat ONeill of Rapid City
plans to attend Walls Celebration
and Badlands Alumni program. He
hopes he sees a lot of people there.
He graduated from Wall with the
Class of 1938 75 yeas ago. Dave
and Pam Fischer also plan to at-
tend as Pams Class of 1963 will
celebrate 50 years.
Great news! The 7th Cavalry
Band will be playing in the parade
in Wall on July 13th and will also
perform at noon at the Community
Center. Their plans to be here for
the Memorial Day Service did not
come through but they may have a
bigger audience to appreciate their
music on Saturday.
No much to write about this
week news is scarce. It was nice
last week that some people con-
tributed news items.
Happy Birthday, Wall! May you
be able to attend the Celebration!
Wisdom is a divine endowment
and not a human acquisition.

We must look deep into our lives
to see what our true potential is.
Each of us has an incredible
amount of untapped potential, and
it is definitely to our advantage to
do whatever we can to tap into that
potential so we can be the best we
can be. Imagine the good each of us
could do in this world if we were to
be able to step out of the muck of
mediocrity and begin tapping into
more of our human potential.
Many times in a week it comes to
my attention that there is a need
for some "quantum leaps" in my
own personal and professional
growth if I am going to be the per-
son I want to be. As a leader in my
home and in my business, I must
continually and consistently chal-
lenge myself to change and con-
tinue to grow in these areas-even
when it hurts.
Changing for the better is a goal
each of us should be striving after
on a daily basis, and is a great place
to start tapping into ones potential.
Our goal is to be able to honestly
say: "Every day in every way I am
getting better and better!"
Often this growth-and the ability
to live up to our fullest potential-
can only occur when we come to the
place where we are willing to give
up those things that we have come
to enjoy, out of habit, that we know
are not the best for us. (Believe me,
there is quite a list of these kinds of
things in my life.) Making effective
change is a process that involves
transforming our thinking about
these "second-best" habits and atti-
tudes and a willingness to replace
them with the healthiest and most
positive habits possible. Even if we
only take baby steps to our goal,
this is much better than staying in
the muck of mediocrity.
Today, consider taking a step or
two to get out of the muck. If you
find that you are "stuck in the
muck" review your priorities in life.
Stop making wrong choices and
start making right ones. Start read-
ing things that are good for you to
read. Give of yourself to others.
Whatever you do, don't stay stuck
in the muck. Build yourself a life
that is worthy, focused and produc-
tive, and never allow yourself to be
satisfied with anything less than
being your best.
Get Out of the Muck

Jean M. Burns, age 90 of Philip,
S.D., died July 7, 2013, at the Hans
P. Peterson Memorial Hospital in
Philip, surrounded by her family.
Jean Mae Burns, the first child
of Frank and Joy Keve Hauk, was
born May 18, 1923. Her childhood
was spent with her siblings,
George, Max and Mary Joy Hauk
on a farm northwest of Grindstone.
She worked her way through
high school by being a mother's
helper to the Bartholmew family
and roomed at the old Winchester
Hotel.
Shirley Burns introduced her to
Homer Burns at a dance in
Milesville and they married several
months later. Dancing remained a
lifelong source of happiness. Jean
and Homer had four children:
Bobby, Jack, Charlotte and Mara-
lynn.
Jean took great pride in her
homemaking skills. Keeping her
home clean and tidy was of great
importance to her. In fact, her
nephews were pretty sure that
when she wiped their faces there
was Clorox on the washcloth! She
loved making pies, bread, jelly, and
pickles. Her garden was her special
passion. Canning and freezing the
produce gave her great joy. Her
hobbies included embroidering and
making rugs. A local lady who
roomed with Jean and Homer
when she went to high school, re-
called that Jean always "freshened
up" and changed her housedress
when it was time for Homer to
come home from work.
A true child of the 1930s, Jean
frugally saved and stored anything
that might have value or serve a
practical purpose in the future.
When faced with a new domestic
challenge there was always some
stored item that could be modified
or adapted to solve the problem.
The variety of uses for a popsicle
stick was endless! No need to run
out and buy something new!
In her younger years, she was
active in community efforts to im-
prove the quality of life in Philip.
Among her activities she served as
the first president of the hospital
auxiliary.
When Homer died suddenly, she
carried on with her family respon-
sibilities since her four children
were all still at home. In addition,
she ran Homer's business with the
help of Red Couch.
Howard Pihlaja, Jean's compan-
ion of many years, survives her.
Jean is also survived by her chil-
dren, Bobby (Gerry) Sloat, Jack
(Marlene) Burns, Charlotte (Larry)
Gabriel and Maralynn Burns. In
addition, she is survived by 12
grandchildren, John (Carol) Os-
burn, Doug (Krista) Osburn, Julie
(Chad) Callahan, Andy (Samantha)
Sloat, Chris (Misti) Burns, Jeff
(Heather) Burns, Robyn (Steve)
Brazelton, Mindy (Lloyd) Metzger,
Jeff (Heather) Gabriel, Danielle
(Josh) Carlson, Dustin (Lynette)
Hummel, and Cassi (Alan) Rislov;
her great-grandchildren include,
Eddie and Jannine Osburn; Anak-
toria, Shane and Baylee Callahan;
Makenzie, Anthony and Zachary
Sloat; Nathan and Jace Brazelton;
Patrick and Will Burns; Taylor,
Brooke and Katie Burns; Sage,
Cedar, Ember and Latham Gabriel;
Cadan and Gage Carlson; Brayden
and Maelee Hummel; and Rio and
Ali Rislov; her brother, Max
(Nancy) Hauk; sister, Mary Joy
Hauk; two sisters-in-law, Peggy
Hauk and Mary Martha Burns;
and numerous nephews and nieces.
Jean was preceded in death by
her husbands Homer Burns and
Jud Fennell; her parents Frank
and Joy (Keve) Hauk; her brother
George Hauk; grandchildren
Christy and Bill Osburn; and
great-grandchildren Brace Allen
and Paxton Ryder Gabriel.
Services were held Wednesday,
July 10, at the United Church in
Philip with Pastor Kathy Chesney
officiating.
Music was provided by Marilyn
Millage, pianist, and Cindy
Nuzum, vocalist.
Ushers were Josh Carlson, Andy
Sloat, Alan Rislov and Chad Calla-
han.

Burns, John and Doug Osburn, Jeff
Gabriel and Dustin Hummel.
Interment was be at the Ma-
sonic Cemetery in Philip.

Here are some interesting facts
about South Dakota from:
http://www.50states.com/facts/sda
kota.htm#
1. Sculptor Gutzon Borglum
began drilling into the 6,200-foot
Mount Rushmore in 1927. Cre-
ation of the Shrine to Democracy
took 14 years and cost a mere $1
million, though it's now deemed
priceless.
2. The faces of George Washing-
ton, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore
Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln
are sculpted into Mount Rushmore
the world's greatest mountain
carving.
3. Fossilized remains of life 50
million years ago have been
arranged in unusual forms, which
is Lemmon's mark of distinction at
the world's largest petrified wood
park.
4. Perhaps the most significant
fur trade/military fort on the west-
ern American frontier, Fort Pierre
Chouteau was the largest (almost
300' square) and best equipped
trading post in the northern Great
Plains. Built in 1832 by John
Jacob Astor's (1763-1848) Ameri-
can Fur Company as part of its ex-
pansion into the Upper Missouri
region, the trading activities at the
site exemplified the commercial al-
liance critical to the success of the
fur business.
5. Jack McCall was tried, con-
victed and hanged two miles north
of Yankton in 1877 for the shooting
of Wild Bill Hickok. He is buried in
an unmarked grave in the Yankton
cemetery.
6. The site of a rich gold strike in
1875, Deadwood retains its mining
town atmosphere. While Dead-
wood is one of the most highly pub-
licized mining towns of the trans-
Mississippi West, much of its fame
rests on the famous or infamous
characters that passed through.
7. Tom Brokaw of NBC gradu-
ated from Yankton High School
and the University of South
Dakota.
8. Belle Fourche is the geograph-
ical center of the United States of
America, designated in 1959 and

played an essential role in the lives
of the Lakota (Sioux), who relied
on the "tatanka" for food, clothing
and shelter.
14. Jewel Cave is the third-
longest cave in the world. More

educational and cultural memorial
to and for the North American In-
dian.

million years old.
19. Sage Creek Wilderness is the
site of the reintroduction of the
black-footed ferret, the most en-
dangered land mammal in North
America.
20. The name "Black Hills"
comes from the Lakota words
Paha Sapa, which mean "hills that
are black". Seen from a distance,
these pine-covered hills, rising sev-
eral thousand feet above the sur-
rounding prairie, appear black.
21. In 1898, the first commercial
timber sale on Federal forested
land in the United States was au-
thorized in the area of Jim and
Estes Creeks (near the town of
Nemo).
22. Woonsocket is known as The
Town with the Beautiful Lake.
Lake Prior sits in the middle of
town.
23. Harney Peak, at 7242 above
sea level, is the highest point in

Spearfish Creek favored the estab-
lishment of a Federal Fish Hatch-
ery in 1898. It is known today as
the D.C. Booth Historic Fish
Hatchery.
30. Sioux Falls exists as a city
today because the land speculators
who staked town site claims there
in 1857 came in search of the cas-
cades of the Big Sioux River.
31. Mitchell is the home of the
world's only Corn Palace.
32. The Flaming Fountain on
South Dakota State Capitol Lake
is fed by an artesian well with nat-
ural gas content so high that it can
be lit. The fountain glows perpetu-

miles away.
37. The largest underground
gold mine is the Homestake Mine
in Lead.
38. Mato Paha "Sacred Moun-
tain" is the origin of many Native
American legends. Rising 1400

near Sturgis, and standing all by
itself, Bear Butte isn't hard to find.
It was used as a landmark by the
plains Indians and even today it is
considered sacred by the plains
peoples.
39. Black Hills National Ceme-
tery "The Arlington of the West" is
a final resting place of our nation's

Facts about South Dakota
Employer Mandate Delay Sig-
nals Larger Problems for Oba-
maCare
Recently, the Obama adminis-
tration announced its plans to
delay implementation of one of the
key components of the presidents
signature health care legislation,
the employer mandate.
This provision, which mandates
financial penalties to businesses
with more than 50 employees that
fail to provide government-ap-
proved health insurance to its em-
ployees, will be delayed from 2014
until 2015.
For more than three years, Pres-
ident Obama has been assuring
the American people that provi-
sions in ObamaCare such as the
employer mandate will help lower
premium costs and allow Ameri-
cans to keep the insurance they
preferred.
Yet, businesses across South
Dakota and the rest of the country
have lamented that the legislation
is stifling hiring decisions and tak-
ing away financial resources that
would normally be invested in
their business.
According to a Wells
Fargo/Gallup Small Business
Index survey, nearly four in 10
small business owners are holding
back hiring because of costs asso-
ciated with implementing Oba-
maCare.
Not only does the health care
law mandate coverage for employ-
ees, but the law also includes a
provision that mandates employ-
ers include certain government-de-
termined essential benefits for
any employer-sponsored health
plan, leaving almost no flexibility
for an employer to determine what
is best for his or her employees.
Many of these required benefits
increase the cost of plans for em-
ployers and employees alike.
According to a recent Gallup poll
from June of 2013, 52 percent of
respondents said they disapprove
of ObamaCare, up from 48 percent
last fall. The same poll revealed
that for every one person who be-
lieves they will be better off under
ObamaCare, two believe they will
be worse off.
Opposition to the presidents
health law is growing, and will
continue to grow, as Americans re-
alize that the law is built upon bro-
ken promises that will result in
higher health care costs and more
taxes.
While I am pleased that busi-
nesses will be shielded for another
year from the onerous and costly
requirements associated with em-
ployer mandate, the delay provides
further evidence that ObamaCare
is not the solution to our health
care problems and that this mas-
sive expansion of government is a
step in the wrong direction.
Rather than unilaterally break-
ing a law that the president and
his allies in Congress proposed,
the administration should have
worked with Congress to devise a
solution.
Its time to repeal this broken
legislation and replace it with real
health care reforms that will give
Americans access to the health
care they need, from the doctor
they choose, at a lower cost.

Violet Kitterman, daughter of
Mrs. Wm. Kitterman, was recently
married to Clifford Emerson Doud
of Quinn. They received their li-
cense from Deadwood. At present
the young couple are living with
his parents north of Quinn.
The Wall Light and Power Co.
are putting up sixty-seven new
light poles. Formerly they have
been using mostly the poles be-
longing to the Telephone Co. Bet-
ter service is expected to the users
as there will be less loss of voltage
after the wires have been restrung.
In an exceptionally good game
the baseball team of Quinn lost to
Kadoka, 5 to 4. Quinn led all
through the game up to the last
two innings. Green, their new
pitcher, struck out thirteen men.

A delegation from Cottonwood
and vicinity held a protest meeting
in the W.R.E.A. office Monday
evening. These folks feel that they
are being purposely left out from
the completion of their REA lines.
They claim membership in the As-
sociation almost since its very be-
ginning and feel that they should
have preference over those living
north of Box Elder. Many of those
present Monday night told that
they had gone to considerable ex-
pense getting their places wired to
receive electricity over a year ago.
The Wall firemen were breaking
a record as the Courant was going
to press last week. Before they
were able to get their fire equip-
ment home from one fire they were
called to another. Fire Chief Con-
nolly believes this to be a new
record for the Wall Fire Depart-
ment. The first alarm was sent in
when the pump house of the Miller
Hotel caught fire from an electrical
short circuit. Some oiled rags
caused considerable smoke to pour
from the building. The damage
was confined simply to that of the
electric pump motor. The second
fire about fifteen minutes later
came when the Floyd Flatts
brooder house caught fire. The loss
there amounted to thirty-five
chicks and the tramping down of
their garden by the firemen and
their equipment.
Better than half an inch of rain
fell in the course of a few minutes
in Wall, Sunday afternoon. This
same twisting and heaving cloud
which brought the downpour here
produced devastating hail east of
Quinn and developed into a tor-
nado between Cottonwood and
Philip. The hail storm was cen-
tered over the farms of Merle
Farnsworth and Russell Kitter-
man about four miles east of
Quinn. Windows on the north
sides of both their homes were
smashed even through the screens.
Stones an hour after the storm
were so large around that you
were unable to grip them with one
outspread hand. Hail as large as
any grapefruit that he had ever
seen, is Tony Krebs description of
the hail. Ike Kelly claims that he
saw stones as large as saucers.
Chunks as large as hens eggs an
hour after they fell were claimed to
have been seen by Mrs. Norton.
The prize description, however,
came from Herman Melchert, who
witnessed a piece of ice as large as
a water pail.

Quinn: Mrs. C. E. Lyle has an-
nounced the Lyle Cafe will close
June 1. Mrs. Lyle has operated the
business for several years and clos-
ing the business will leave Quinn

purchaser.
Hugh Hiller, clerk of the Wall In-
dependent School District, reports
that no one filed for the one posi-
tion on the Board whose term ex-
pired this year, so Bill Bielmaier
will be asked to continue to serve
as hold-over member. The other
members are Harold Welsh, Helen
Eisenbraun, Margie Tivis and Eva
Sebade.
Lorna Hoffman was pictured in
Mondays Rapid City Journal as
the winner of the top cowgirl hon-
ors at the high school rodeo in
Rapid City, last Saturday and Sun-
day. Lorena Berry of Norris, tied
with Lorna for first place. The
girls received gifts of luggage.
Charlene Hayes of Wasta, posted
the best time in girls barrel race
with Lorna second. Lorna won
third in showing of the best cutting
horse. Engraved buckles were
given for individual winners.

A break-in at the Wall School
netted the thief about $100 in bills
and checks. Footprints show that
the burglar entered the office by
climbing and prying open the win-
dow. Nothing was disturbed in the
office except the locked filing cabi-
net. A screw driver had apparently
been used for a pry. A roll of bills
was taken, leaving the coins that
were in the same money box un-
touched as well as another small
stack of bills. Supt. Vernice Hilde-
brandt stated that the money
came mostely from the sale of ads
for the school annual and the
school lunch fund. Friday morning
deputy sheriff Geo. Tennyson and
state Motor Patrolman Jerry
Boyer, investigated the break-in.
Commencement at Colorado
State University was family night
for the Pattersons of Wall. Dean,
Marcene and Gene Patterson all

The twin brothers received Bache-
lor degrees in general agriculture,
and Marcene was awarded a Bach-
elor of Science degree in Home
Economics. All three have re-
turned to Wall where Dean and
Gene are at work on the family
(Merritt Patterson) farm, and
Marcene will teach in the Wall
High School.
Two new members were elected
in Wall School Board in Tuesdays
annual election. Donald Strandell
and O. S. Soma were elected to
take the place of Howard Johnson
and Deane Joyce. There were 159
votes cast. The candidates received
the following votes: Don Strandell,
102; O. S. Soma, 93; Dean Joyce,
61; Howard Johnson, 50.

from there for Fort McClellan, Al-
abama, where she will be spending
eight weeks of basic training for
their United State Women Army
Corps. After basic training, she
will go to Fort Benjamin Harrison
in Indiana for eight weeks of
school in Personnel Management.
During the past week, this area
has received over an inch of mois-
ture, while in the Hills snow was
reported. All of the crops here are
looking excellent. Some farmers
are concerned that they are get-
ting too much moisture to harvest
their hay. Corn, although not a
major crop, is looking good, reports
Tom McDonnell. Wheat fields are
in the beading stage and is ex-
pected to be another good yield.

30 years ago
On Friday, May 27th, Gail John-
son and boys and Wanda White
and girls became a family, Deane
Joyce presided. Rick and Marilyn
Sutter were attendants.
Forty former students, along
with dozens of friends and rela-
tives, gathered Sunday, May 29, to
honor Iva Eisenbraun. The occa-
sion was her retirement after 36
years of teaching in the rural
schools of the Wall and Creighton
areas. Iva taught a total of 126 stu-
dents in the Lake Hill, Squaw
Creek, Hamann, Pleasant Ridge,
South Creighton and North
Creighton schools. Beginning her
teaching career in 1940, she took
only a brief time off to rear her
children. She has taught each of
her children as well as several
grandchildren.
Kirk Cordes and Melanie Flatt
were the top two vote-getters in
the Wall School District #51-5
school board election held Tuesday,
June 21. The two new members of
the board will be seated on the
July 13 regular meeting of the
Board of Education. Cordes, Flatt
and Robert Hays sought election to
the school board for two vacancies
left by Dick Kjerstad and Bill
Leonard, who both chose not to
seek re-election. Both positions are
three-year terms.
Shannon Biers, Scenic, daughter
of Darryl and Lynda Biers, was
crowned South Dakota High
School Rodeo Queen for 1983 at
the South Dakota High School
Rodeo held in New Underwood
June 24-26. She will represent
South Dakota at the national
rodeo to be held in Douglas, Wyo.,
july 18-24. Biers won all categories
in the field of 15 en route to the
title, which netted her a plaque, a
brand new saddle, a buckle with
four rubies in it, and a crown made
of Black Hills gold. Her year as
Queen of High School Rodeos will
entail traveling around to the var-
ious High School Rodeos in South
Dakota.

DON'T GeT TRAmPLeD BY

Richard Wahlstrom
www.edwardjones.com
Every year in early July, thou-
sands of people run with the
bulls in Pamplona, Spain. While
the event is exciting, it is also haz-
ardous, and many runners have
gotten badly injured over the
years. As an investor, you may find
that running with the herd is dan-
gerous to you, too because if
youre constantly following what
everyone else is doing, your own fi-
nancial goals could end up getting
trampled.
The urge to run with the herd, or
follow the crowd, may have been
hard-wired into our psyches, ac-
cording to anthropologists. In pre-
historic times, running with the
pack may have helped people min-
imize danger or increase their
chances for finding food. But today,
there are far fewer rewards for fol-
lowing a herd mentality espe-
cially in investing.
For example, consider what hap-
pens when the financial markets
go through a period of volatility.
Virtually every time this happens,
many investors flock to gold, ap-
parently believing that the shiny
yellow metal will always be valu-
able and that its price will never
drop. Yet, the fact is that gold
prices, like those of other financial
assets, do fluctuate. Furthermore,
certain types of gold-based invest-
ments can be quite risky in their
own right.
What other follow the herd
movements should you avoid when
you invest? For one thing, try to
stay away from feeding frenzies.
If you look back about 15 years
ago, you may remember the buzz
surrounding speculative technol-
ogy stocks many of which were
companies that had futuristic
names but lacked some useful ele-
ments, such as profits or business
strategies. For a few years, the
prices of these companies soared,
but in 2000 and 2001, the dot-
com bubble burst, splattering in-
vestors with big losses that were
either irreversible or, at the least,
took years from which to recover.
The herd mentality often applies
even when investors know the
right moves to make. To illustrate:
One of the most basic rules of in-
vesting is buy low, sell high
and yet many investors do the
exact opposite. When prices drop,
they sell, so that they can cut their
losses even though they may be
selling investments that, while
temporarily down, still have
strong potential. On the other
hand, when an investments price
has shot up, these same investors
will often keep buying more
shares, hoping to reap even bigger
gains even if the investment has
now become quite expensive, as
measured by the price-to-earnings
ratio, and has little upside poten-
tial remaining.
Instead of emulating other in-
vestors, think about your own fi-
nancial goals and create a viable
strategy for achieving them, tak-
ing into account your risk toler-
ance and time horizon. Look for
quality investments and hold them
for the long term. Dont be discour-
aged by the inevitable market
downturns, but be ready to adjust
your portfolio as needed. Above all
else, be patient and disciplined, al-
ways keeping your eye on your ul-
timate objectives.
It can feel comfortable when
youre in the midst of a herd but
it can lead you to places where, as
an investor, you dont want to go.
Steer clear of the crowds and go
your own way.

thoughts of the ordinance. Motion by Dor-
reen, second by Justin to post copies of
the ordinance on the community bulletin
board with a signature page for residents
to sign if they are in favor of the ordi-

Dorreen commented she was unable
to talk with Racicky while he was repair-
ing the Fire Hall leak, but will contact him
after the 4th to smooth down the mound
of dirt from the repair near the Caf.
Kari commented she has been review-
ing the Towns ordinances and feels there
needs to be some updating done. Ordi-
nance #1 states a committee should be
approved for zoning issues in the town.
The board directed Kari to contact other
residents who are willing to be a part of
the committee who can help with the up-
dating and bring them back next month
for board approval.
There was discussion on the mosquito
issues this summer. The board directed
Carolynn to research options for having
the town sprayed and with a change in
legislation, two board members can ap-
prove having it done without calling a spe-
cial meeting since it is a safety issue.

ing Ordinance 40 to allow chickens in

ber of chickens allowed as well as roost-
ers. Carolynn will add the changes and

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY
with Dr. James
Dobson
Dr. Dobson Answers
your Questions
QueSTION: How can I get my
spouse to forgive me for the ways
Ive hurt her over the past couple
of years? Shes withdrawn from me
emotionally, and Im not sure how
to convince her Ive changed.
ANSWeR: Simply realizing and
acknowledging your own failure is
a huge step in the right direction.
There are many people who find it
extremely difficult to humble
themselves in this way, especially
in a marital situation. So take
heart: youre on the right track. If
youve confessed your faults to
your spouse and he or she is still
having a hard time forgiving you,
there are some things you can do
to help.
In the first place, you can recog-
nize that forgiveness is a process.
It ebbs and flows; it starts, stops,
and starts again; it gets better and
gets worse. No matter what the
issue that caused the hurt, forgive-
ness can be more than just a one-
shot decision. Understand that
forgiving you may take time, and
that if your mate occasionally
seems to wrestle with or dwell on
what you did, that doesnt neces-
sarily amount to a refusal to for-
give. Sights, sounds, and memo-
ries can trigger an episode of
struggle. If youre impatient or in-
considerate, it will only cause more
hurt.
Next, you should keep in mind
that fear can be a barrier to for-
giveness. Fear often blocks mercy.
There are at least three kinds of
fear that may be making it difficult
for your spouse to complete the
process of forgiveness.
First, they may be afraid of los-
ing control or power. If this is the
case, you can help your mate let go
of the need for control by demon-
strating your trustworthiness and
showing that you understand the
seriousness of what youve done.
Let your spouse see that you have
to live with the consequences every
day. Assure them regularly that
youve learned a great deal about
how deeply your actions have af-
fected the marriage. Show how
youre taking steps to prevent the
mistake from occurring again.
Second, your partner may fear
being unable to punish the wrong-
doing. Maybe your spouse is still
in the anger stage and wants you
to experience some of the hurt that
they have felt. You must be pa-
tient during this stage of the
process, whether your mate is
right or wrong. Pray for your
spouse. Ask God to reveal your
broken heart and your desire to
make things right. If youre hum-
ble about it, he or she may eventu-
ally begin to wonder, Why cant I
forgive? What payoff am I getting
out of withholding forgiveness?
Questions like these often lead to
healing, but it takes time.
Third, its possible that your
mate is afraid of forgetting what
occurred. You can deal with this
by helping your spouse understand
that you dont expect them not to
remember what happened. Thats
impossible. Explain that you sim-
ply look forward to the day when
he or she will no longer be so
deeply affected by your actions,
and to the opportunity of proving
your commitment to make your
marriage healthy again. Be as un-
derstanding as possible. Impa-
tience will only underline the sus-
picion that you dont care about
your partners struggles.
Throughout this process, make a
special effort to be honest with
yourself. Its easy to blame your
spouse for failing to forgive when
youre confident that your heart is
genuinely remorseful. But theres
a need here for constant self-exam-
ination. Keep checking your own
attitude and actions. Ask ques-
tions like, What exactly caused the
hurt in the first place? What be-
haviors or attitudes do I hold on to
that cause more hurt? How do I
plan to make the necessary
changes? What might God be
showing me through my spouses
inability to forgive?
If necessary, ask a professional
counselor or older Christian to
help you and your spouse through
the process. You might be sur-
prised to learn how many people
you respect have actually walked
this path before you.
QueSTION: How can I get my
husband to help more with the
kids? He likes the fun part of
raising kids hes great at getting
down on the floor and wrestling
with our toddler. But when it
comes to the practical side of par-
enting, I dont think hes pulling
his weight.
ANSWeR: Here, as in every
other area of married life, open
communication is critical to mu-
tual understanding and a success-
ful relationship. Many couples
never talk to each other about
their parenting expectations.
Some are reluctant to open up and
share the fears and struggles
theyre facing as they take on the
challenge of caring for a child. In
most cases, both of them are doing
the best they can, and both of them
are feeling insecure. The first step
toward resolving this difficulty is
to air these thoughts and feelings
in an honest and non-threatening
way.
Its also important to under-
stand how the God-ordained dis-
tinction between male and female
comes into play in this particular
instance. Nature has delegated
the functions of pregnancy, child-
bearing, nursing, and nurturing to
the woman. As a result, mothers
tend to have an immediate and in-
tuitive connection with a new
baby, whereas fathers sometimes
feel uncomfortable and out of
their element when asked to step
in and lend a hand. Women often
say they want their husbands to
help with parenting tasks like dia-
pering and feeding the baby, but
when Dad tries to lend a hand,
Mom jumps in to correct every-
thing hes doing. This leads to
greater irritation on both sides,
and the husband shrinks from try-
ing to help next time, fearing that
his attempts will be criticized.
These are only general observa-
tions, of course. You will know best
how relevant they are to the situa-
tion in your home.
The solution, as weve already
indicated, is to discuss your feel-
ings and expectations. If you and
your husband share the traditional
view that Mom should stay home
with the kids while Dad goes out to
earn the income, consider the prac-
tical ways how this arrangement
might play itself out on a daily
basis. Does it mean that the wife
is supposed to tend to the children
all day and all night? Does it in-
clude a condition that she must
also keep the home spotless and
have dinner ready when her hus-
band gets home from work? If you
have a less traditional perspective
of gender roles, its even more im-
portant that each of you clearly
understands what the other is
thinking.
These days its common for
spouses in our culture to share
child-rearing tasks to a greater
degree than their grandparents
did. This is largely because its
also common for both husband and
wife to be employed outside the
home. Many contemporary cou-
ples are convinced that it is impos-
sible to live on one income. We
would suggest that this is an as-
sumption worth challenging. If
you have enough courage to give it
a try, you may possibly discover
that you can cut back on expenses
and stretch your resources so that
Mom is able to stay home with the
kids. This arrangement could go a
long way toward resolving some of
your conflicts over the question of
sharing child-care responsibilities.
Whatever approach you take, its
important that you and your hus-
band learn how to function as a
team. God designed babies to ben-
efit from the love and care of both
parents, and you and your spouse
were designed to fall in love with
your child. None of this can hap-
pen unless you spend time to-
gether. Some parents, especially
dads, avoid spending time with
their little ones, protesting that
theyre unfamiliar with the rou-
tine. But child-care skills can be
learned. No one should use inex-
perience as an excuse for abdicat-
ing responsibility. This is yet an-
other area in which husband and
wife need to be patient with one
another and cut each other some
slack.
