Cherokee toddler critically injured By Julie Whiteman One-year-old Grace Ann Flaherty, daughter of Cherokee Police Officer Tyler Flaherty, was critically injured Sunday afternoon. According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol report, Nancy Lee Mathis, 32, of Cherokee, was backing from a private drive in the 100 block of South Colorado in Cherokee at approximately 5:50 p.m. Mathis apparently failed to see 1-year-
old Grace in the driveway and backed over her with a 1991 Chevy pickup. Grace was was transported to Integris Bass Baptist Health Center in Enid, and later flown to OU Children’s Hospital in Oklahoma City, with head and external trunk and leg injuries. She was listed in critical condition. Mathis’ condition was listed as normal, and alcohol did not appear to be a contributing factor in the accident.

Man charged with Spending assault after pointing gun spree results By Marione Martin A man reported to be making threats and pointing a gun has been charged in Alfalfa County. David Belter, 55, has been charged with two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon, a felony. According to documents in the case, Alfalfa County Deputy Sheriff Blake Trekell was contacted by Deputy David Gebers on Aug. 11, who said a man had been waving a rifle at truck drivers. Gebers had taken a written statement from a Jericho services truck driver, Shawn Duperron, who said he had just finished spreading his second load of drilling mud and, as he was leaving, saw a man at a residence waving a gun at him from the side of the road. The location was three miles south from Highway 11 and CR 360, then west to the dead end. Duperron stopped to talk to the man. As he approached, the man took the gun down from his shoulder and held it next to his waist. Duperron asked him how he was doing, and he replied not too good cause you guys keep driving by my house and you better get back in your truck and leave. Gebers also spoke on the phone with Theodore Barnes who said he was leav-
ing a pasture in the area and found a doghouse in the middle of the road. The first time he drove by, the doghouse was not in the roadway. Barnes said he saw a man standing next to a mailbox not far from the doghouse, with a black rifle slung over his shoulder. Barnes got out of his truck to move the doghouse out of the road, when the man approached him. Barnes moved the doghouse and stated that he didn’t run over it. When he did this, the man lowered the gun to his side. Barnes felt threatened. He got into his truck and left the scene. Trekell spoke with Debbie Marsalf, who said she was Belter’s girlfriend. She said on Aug. 10 she saw Belter talking to a man who had just finished spreading drilling mud in a field. Belter was holding his black gun. Marsalf said Belter told her that he would kill a lot of people and then himself. He also told her he wanted to kill her ex-husband for the way he treated her and her kids. She also wrote in a statement that the following deer season, Belter had shot at deer hunters. Deputy Gebers attempted to speak with Belter over the phone but he refused, stating that he wouldn’t talk to anyone.
in bogus check charge
By Marione Martin Amy Lynn Webb, 33, is charged with obtaining cash or merchandise by bogus check, a felony, in Alfalfa County. According to documents on file, Webb is alleged to have written two checks on a closed bank account, for a total of $2800.27. Alfalfa County Deputy Sheriff Blake Trekell spoke with an employee, Ashly Smith, at Alco in Cherokee on April 6. She showed him a check written to the store by Webb for $2,480.77. The cashier who accepted the check said Webb filled two shopping carts and made a comment that her husband gave her a $3,000 spending limit. A Central National Bank representative confirmed that the account had been closed prior to the check being written. On Aug. 6 Donna Irwin of Alley Kutz Salon reported to the sheriff’s office that she had also received a returned check from Webb. The check was for $319.50, and she said Webb made a similar comment that her husband gave her a $500 spending limit.

South Barber School Board approves budget, student handbook, tennis coach and more By Yvonne Miller South Barber’s Board of Education approved a $1,974,651 budget for 201213 at their August meeting Monday night. The meeting opened with a brief budget hearing with no comments or protests from the public. Board President Kent Swartz presided over the meeting with members: Deb Helfrich, Dana Roark, Janet Robison and Michael Anderson. Members Jeff Black and Bob Schrock were absent. Superintendent Brad Morris also sat at the table as did Luke McKinney who acted as secretary in the absence of board clerk Julie Johnson and deputy clerk Mary Lynn Meyers. Presenting the budget, Morris said he anticipates student enrollment to be around 215 which is about the same as last year. He reminded the board that September 20 is the official day student enrollment is set for the year, which determines state budget funding per student. Morris said the Local Option Budget for this year is $670,791. The school district’s millage last year was 12 mills. He anticipates the millage to be “just slightly increased this year.” South Barber’s capital outlay fund is $1,515,000 for 2012-13. The superintendent said the school’s estimated tax revenue for 2012-13 is $1.5 million. Because of oil and gas protested taxes, the projected loss to USD 255 is $91,518.44. South Barber Hires and
Other Business Board approved hiring Dennis Blake as the head boys and girls tennis coach for the 2012-13 school year. Blake retired as principal at Medicine Lodge in 2009 and has 31 years as an educator, including coaching tennis. He had 14 years in administration – at Udall before Medicine Lodge. At Greensburg, he coached girls tennis for 17 years and boys tennis for 13 years. In 2011, Blake and his wife Nancy moved to Hazelton and started a boys ranch in the former school building there. The Blakes continue to prepare the ranch, and currently are primarily offering foster care for six boys. When Morris asked him to take the tennis coach position, Blake said, “I had to think about it, but not for long, because I enjoy working with kids so much.” After two mornings of 6:30 practice, Blake said, “I have a great bunch of girls. It’s going to be a fun year.” Board approved rehiring longtime band teacher and district librarian Jill Daughhetee. For paperwork/KPERS reasons, she had resigned at the end of the school year and now will continue her role at South Barber. Auditor Randy Ford gave USD255 a clean audit. He thanked the superintendent and clerk Johnson for their cooperation. Use of the high school football field for Saturday youth football was approved. The Class of 1962 received board ap-
proval to use a school bus for a tour of Barber County September 2. Payment of current bills of $198,730.96 was approved. Head lice checks were discussed at length. Principal Marcia Cantrell is to contact the health department about having a nurse do some checks. New Principal Recommended Jr/ Sr High School Handbook Changes Approved New Jr/Sr High Principal Brent Shaffer introduced himself at the meeting, showcasing his straight-forward approach and easy-going nature. He thanked retired principal Fred Gillig for “being helpful” in the transition. “I’m coming from a 3A School with 250 kids,” Shaffer said. He would like to try some of the successful ideas from there at South Barber. Some of the academic proposals he listed on his report were: dual credit classes; online classes; independent study; work/study (in the community); and semester classes. Shaffer said, “Our role is to not just give our kids an education – but an opportunity.” “We need to look at changes we can make for the better.” Shaffer suggested new additions to the Jr/Sr High School Handbook which the board approved. One of those is a 12-point discipline system. Acts of behavior that count for points range from dresscode violations, disruptive behavior, unexcused absences to cheating, possession of firearms and drugs. Electronic devices (pagers/cell phones, Ipods/MP3) will be allowed in the building, but NOT in the classroom. Cell phones may be used before school and in between classes, but not for calls. Calls can be made only in the office or foyer of the commons during lunch with permission from staff. No Action on Janda Sewer Line Request At last month’s meeting, the board directed Superintendent Morris to check and see who would be responsible for the cost of a land survey for the southwest end of the high school property and access road. This is from the Justin and See S.

North Dakota oil boom brings blight with growth as costs soar By Lynn L. Martin (This article was edited down in length by me. All writing is by Jennifer Oldham of the website Bloomberg.com. However, I think it is important as many things sound familiar.) The gravel road that borders Dave Hynek’s North Dakota farm is designed to carry 10 tractortrailer trucks a day. In a recent 24-hour period, about 800 passed by. Some are traveling 90 minutes west to Williston, where School Superintendent Viola LaFontaine expects as many as 3,800 students this fall, about 57 percent more than her primary schools were built to hold. North Dakota’s economy outpaced every other state in 2011, with the fastest personal income, employment and home price growth, according to Bloomberg Economic Evaluation of States, or BEES, index data. Yet the oil boom fueling the nation’s lowest unemployment rate, also has a dark side. It’s pushing rural North Dakota’s housing, electric, water, police and emergency services to the breaking point. “It’s absolutely destroying our infrastructure,” said Hynek, a Mountrail County commissioner, as he sat in a pickup truck on the 1,400 acre farm where his family has grown wheat, flax and sunflowers for four generations. “A few years ago, our board set a goal that Mountrail County would be a better place to live and work as this oil play works itself out over the next 30 years,” he said. “Right now, I would be hard-pressed to find people who agree with that.” Drilling in the Bakken formation, a 360-million-year-old shale bed two miles underground that geologists believe holds a 15,000 square-mile region of oil in North Dakota alone, foisted big-city concerns onto rural communities where everyone knew each other, no one locked doors, and business deals
were sealed with a handshake. Fracking Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, in which water is pumped down a well with sand and chemicals to crack rock and release oil, allowed companies such as Marathon Oil Corp. (MRO) and Continental Resources Inc. (CLR) to extract the energy. Prices for gasoline and groceries in Mountrail and Williams counties — the heart of the boom — are 30 percent higher than in the state’s largest cities. Lines to eat at local restaurants often top an hour. Finding a plumber or a handyman can take weeks, and often costs three times as much as it did three years ago. In Stanley, about eight miles north of Hynek’s farm, an argument between two men over lunch at Joyce’s Cafe in late August ended when one of them ran outside and punched a wall-sized plateglass window, shattering it and injuring diners. ‘Now It’s Dangerous’ “There were three rapes here last summer — that’s in a town with one assault in its history,” said Cory Rice, who bought the restaurant from his grandparents. “It used to be a quiet community. Now it’s dangerous.” Residents are forced to reconcile
their declining quality of life with undeniable gains in prosperity. North Dakota reported the nation’s lowest unemployment rate in December at 3.3 percent, compared to 8.5 percent nationwide, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The state is also seeing significant wage gains, with the average annual salary growing 79 percent in Williams County, to $56,857 in 2010 when compared to 2005, and 67 percent in Mountrail County over the same period, according to the bureau. Higher tax receipts fostered by oilindustry revenue are helping finance a new water pipeline, rehabilitation of the state penitentiary and renovation of the state’s heritage center — even as calls for more housing and funding for school construction go unheeded. The state’s three-year-old boom, which attracted thousands of workers to 17 western counties, is progressing so quickly that studies commissioned to determine infrastructure needs are outdated the moment they leave the printer. ‘Population Explosion’ “It’s almost an unmanageable population explosion,” said Vicky Steiner, a Republican state legislator and executive director of the North Dakota AssoSee Says Page 35

Constien praises Football Waynoka staff equipment Gym floors finished, elementary repairs complete By Julie Whiteman Waynoka school buildings are whipped into shape and ready for the new school year. Superintendent Peggy Constien praised staff members during the monthly school board meeting for preparing the Waynoka school buildings which included completing the new gym floor and repairs on the elementary after a broken toilet flooded the building. Constien also brought good news to the board meeting when she announced that an increase in district valuation resulted in an increase of approximately $68,000 in ad valorem tax. In the Principal’s report, Michael Meriwether announced that as of August 9 there were 252 students enrolled in pre-K through grade 12. Meriwether said it was his goal in the 2012-2013 school year for 100% of students in grades 3-6 to pass the reading test. Board member Clint Olson was appointed as the voting delegate for the Waynoka Public Schools for the OSSBA Delegate Assembly that will be held at the OSSBA Conference on August 25. The yearly inspection on the heating
and cooling system with Luckinbill was unanimously approved. All board members agreed to rent out the old shop building, with a clause to be added that stipulates that the renter assumes liability and responsibility of personal contents in case of theft or fire. Resignations were accepted by head cook Shawna McKinley and academic coach Ashlee Smart. McKinley will be replaced by Latona F. Merrill and Jordan Taylor will serve as the new academic coach. The board also approved four emergency transfer applications. The short agenda for the board did not produce a short meeting for board members, as lengthy discussion was made over the first three sections of the schools policy handbook. Constien said the policy handbook will be reviewed and discussed in three seperate sections, to ensure the book is up-to-date and correct. The next meeting of the Waynoka Public School Board is scheduled for September 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the Board of Education Room.

Sanders out, Phillips takes over as Alfalfa Emergency Management Director By Roger McKenzie Vernon Sanders is now the former Alfalfa County Emergency Management Director. He was removed from his position by unanimous vote on a motion by County Commissioner Toby Walker at Monday’s meeting of the Alfalfa County commissioners. The vote followed an executive session to discuss the situation. Neither Sanders, nor Diane Phillips, his deputy, were present, although both were invited to attend, according to commissioners. The matter was to have been decided at last week’s meeting, but a clerical error on the agenda prevented action from being taken at that time. Phillips was immediately tabbed to take over as the emergency management director. She will have full responsibility, instead of the shared responsibility that was part of the problem. Commissioners described the problem as primarily one of communication — or more specifically, the lack of it. The emergency management director has to be available 24 hours a day. Because Sanders works at the Crabtree Correctional Center in Helena, where phones are not allowed in the general
population area, he could not be reached at all times. Moreover, a shared responsibility arrangement worked out between Sanders and Phillips, was apparently not working. Communication between Sanders and Phillips was lacking and confusing, according to Commissioner Chad Roach. “It had to be resolved somehow,” said Commissioner Walker. Monday’s vote was the resolution. A policy handbook, updated for 2012, was approved for Alfalfa County. By updating the book, the county will receive a discount on its liability insurance policy from the Association of County Commissioners of Oklahoma (ACCO). The last change made in the handbook came at Monday’s meeting, when Commissioner Roach moved that the allowed accumulation of sick leave be expanded from 300 hours to unlimited. His motion was approved. Sick leave expires when an employee leaves county service and is not eligible to be paid out. The chief benefit of unlimited sick leave accumulation is, in addition to protection for catastrophic
illness or injury, to make it easier for an employee to give up some sick leave for a fellow county employee without being seriously affected. Associated with the handbook, but in a separate document, the county’s drug policy and testing procedures were also modified slightly due to state-mandated changes. All county employee’s must sign a form that they have read the drug policies and testing procedures of the county. Twenty-two road crossing permit requests were approved. The fees for those requests totaled $17,500. The majority of the permits (11.5) and the fees ($9,500) were for District 1. Four permits ($3,750 in fees) were for District 2, while District 3 had 6.5 permits ($4,250 in fees). A correction was made and a redo on a transfer of appropriations from one bridge account to another. The misnaming mistake occurred last week, when action on the matter was originally taken. The transfer will help keep the county’s bridge construction program functioning smoothly. In other business, the commissioners signed off on county officers’ monthly reports. They approved minutes of their previous meeting, maintenance and operations warrants and blanket purchase orders. No action was taken on a burn ban agenda item because Gov. Mary Fallin has declared a burn ban for the entire state.

Freedom Rodeo hosts summer blood drive Donors with Oklahoma Blood Institute (OBI) can not only give back with their donation, but can also further pediatric medical research. OBI will host a blood drive with Freedom Rodeo from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday, August 18, at the City Park on an OBI bloodmobile. Anyone who is healthy and 16 years of age or older is encouraged to donate. Donors will receive two tickets to the Oklahoma City Zoo, a “Feel Wild” summer T-shirt and Donor Rewards points. Donors who wish to support Children’s Miracle Network hospitals — locally, through Children’s Hospital Foundation — can forgo the “Feel Wild” T-shirt and, in turn, OBI will make a monetary donation of similar value to the Children’s Hospital Foundation. It’s a chance to doubly-give to Oklahoma children battling critical health conditions — through the life-saving gift of blood and also through support for pediatric medical research, community outreach and treatment initiatives. “There will be children who need blood in the coming weeks as a result of life-threatening health issues,” said John Armitage, M.D., Oklahoma Blood Institute president and CEO. “They are See Blood Page 30

A few raindrops welcome a happy From Page 6 day for Medicine Lodge Hospital S. Barber
By Yvonne Miller Welcome raindrops fell and smiles were on the faces of everyone who attended the ground breaking for a $10.5 million project at Medicine Lodge Memorial Hospital in Medicine Lodge, Kan. Since 2007 the hospital board had a vision to improve their facility. August 14, 2012 shovels turned over the first dirt to be moved, signaling the beginning of
the project. MLMH is building 17,000 square feet new, and remodeling 17,000 square feet. Project contractor is Hutton Construction and the architect is Health Facilities Group, both from Wichita. “This is a great day for Medicine Lodge,” Hospital Administrator Kevin White said, as he stood in front of the See Hospital Page 30
THOSE WHO MADE THIS DAY REALITY – Most in this group worked since 2007 in anticipation of the day ground would be broken for renovation of the Medicine Lodge Hospital: (l-r) Richard Raleigh, Board Chairman; John Clarke, Board Member; Kevin White, Hospital Administrator; Mike Dierking, project supervisor-Hutton Construction; Tim Dudte, Architect-Health Facilities Group; Betty Buell, Board Member; Lennes Rankin, Board Member; Melvin Cunningham, Board Member; Dr. Pete Meador.

Megan Janda request to go across some school property to access a city sewer line for their housing property known as Rusty Spur Lodging. There is a question of exactly where property lines are concerning the access road. The school would be responsible for the cost of Garber Surveying Service which would not exceed $2500. School board members said they are not interested in spending that money. Both Megan Janda and Swartz agreed they are at a point that both sides are not sure what direction to proceed. Although Roark asked if they could enter a contract with Jandas, restricting the number of RV hookups, etc., and Megan said their attorney said that was a possibility, no action was taken. Swartz moved on to the next agenda item. Superintendent Update, Drug Policy and Upcoming Events Morris updated on many buildings and grounds projects: window repairs; carpet projects; elementary roof replacement work began Monday; gym floors rewaxed; new sound system installed in auditorium; improvements in administrative offices about complete. Deputy Sheriff/Sheriff Elect Justin Rugg took his drug dog on an initial run through the high school Monday. He’ll return periodically. The board reviewed the proposed drug policy and the changes to it recommended by attorney John Klenda. Before giving final approval, the board wants site council to review the policy again since they had so much input in creating it. The document can be implemented anytime during the school year. Principal Cantrell said special education para replacements hired were: Vincent Fink and Jeanine Cloyd. Cantrell said 28 Pre-Kindergarten students enrolled – 19 age 4, and nine 3 ½ year olds. Of those, nine students are new to Kiowa, Cantrell said. Enrollment dates and the numerous sports schedules are all listed on the school’s website www.southbarber.com Principal Shaffer gave the following student numbers for sports: SBHS football – 18 (don’t yet have jr hi numbers); SBHS Volleyball, 15; Tennis 13; SBJH Volleyball – 14.

Besides some townspeople, the crowd was comprised of hospital board members, county commissioners, members of the Public Building Commission, hospital employees and friends. “The real winners are the patients we will serve,” White said. Hospital Board Chairman Richard Raleigh reminded they’ve worked diligently since 2007, with ups and downs, to make this joyful day happen. Saying the hospital has always been there for his family, Raleigh said, “It wasn’t the building, but the people who work here,” which drew applause from the crowd. Raleigh said now the people of Medicine Lodge have to meet another challenge. That is to raise $500,000
matching money. Lloyd E. Clarke challenged the MLMH and ML Community Health Foundation to raise $500,000 by June 12, 2013 for the remodeling and equipping of the hospital. Clarke will match them dollar for dollar for a total of $1 million. Raleigh said Clarke made this generous challenge grant in recognition of the long standing dedication of his father Lloyd Clarke and his brother John Clarke. They worked to insure the availability of the best medical care and the best equipment possible for Medicine Lodge. Improvements in this project include: On the upper floor – increasing ER from one-bed to four; moving X-ray, CT and Ultrasound to a new area adjacent to ER; new patient rooms will be added and existing ones renovated, for a total

of 19 private rooms and three semiprivate; operating room air circulation and humidity will be brought up to meet requirements. On the lower floor – renovations to the outpatient surgery area, including office and exam rooms, procedure rooms, etc.; business office, medical records and administration; kitchen and dining area. The entire facility will be brought up to code; get new heating and cooling; and more. This project is funded through a few avenues; the Barber County Commissioners approved $6 million of taxpayer funded bonds; and the hospital applied for and received a $4.5 million USDA loan. White said plans are to start construction Wednesday.

The need for blood impacts all ages, often unexpectedly as a result of accident or illness.” Oklahoma Blood Institute is the ninth largest, non-profit blood center in America, providing every drop of blood needed by patients in 144 medical facilities across Oklahoma. During summer months, it is especially important to increase fluid intake the entire day before giving blood and to eat a complete meal within six hours of donating. Plenty of air-conditioned comfort in an indoor setting is required at all blood drives.

ciation of Oil and Gas Producing Counties. Williams and Mountrail counties recently banned construction of “man camps” — temporary developments for oil workers — until they can expand sewer, electrical and water systems. The move put pressure on an already tight housing market, where rents for a two-bedroom without utilities skyrocketed from $350 a month to $2,000. Some workers report paying $4,000 a month for a three-bedroom apartment in Williston, about 60 miles (97 kilometers) south of the Canadian border. Five hotels are being built in Williston — home to 14,500 people in 2010 and about 20,000 today — and officials expect 1,200 apartments and singlefamily homes to be completed by summer. With 4,000 job openings, even that won’t be enough. ‘Five Steps Backward’ “It’s like you take four steps forward and five backward,” said E. Ward Koeser, the city’s mayor. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT)’s local outlet, Taco John’s and other retailers and restaurants — as well as the city itself — have trouble finding workers because of the housing shortage, Koeser said. Two recent applicants for publicworks jobs in Williston were living in their cars. Officials anticipate that housing slated to be completed later this year will prompt oil workers to bring their families, who in turn will take restaurant and retail jobs. Yet the boom is causing some families to split up. Minnesotan Denise Hanson, 32, whose husband got a job driving trucks last spring, moved from Williston back to her home state with her 7-year-old daughter in January,
leaving her husband behind in a 12-by40-foot mobile home. Safety Concerns “I was driving home from school and I saw a one-ton pickup shoot across the median pulling a trailer without tail lights,” Hanson said. “Do we risk getting injured and stay here and make money? Or do we go back home and do with less and be safe?” State housing officials say escalating rents are forcing longtime residents to leave. They can’t find developers interested in building new affordable housing, they add. “Housing costs of all types are escalating much faster than income growth,” said Mike Anderson, executive director of the North Dakota Housing Finance Agency. Williston Public School District #1 is scraping to locate housing for 100 homeless students. One family with seven children lives in a recreational vehicle behind a gas station, said Betsy Kelley, the district’s liaison to the homeless. City and county officials say they’re not getting enough money back from the state — which collects an 11.5 percent tax on oil — to finance infrastructure upgrades. Funding Gap “No one ever anticipated this type of impact,” said Donald W. Longmuir Jr., a planner and emergency coordinator for Mountrail County. “We’re actually three to five years behind in funding.” Calls to the county’s volunteer ambulance and fire services tripled since 2009, Longmuir said. Mountrail’s 1,600-mile road system — which became so overloaded last spring that officials ran out of “road closed” signs, and postal carriers were
unable to deliver the mail to some places — needs to be rebuilt at a price tag of $600 million, Hynek said. Williston received $1.5 million in 2011 from the oil extraction tax, which Koeser said “doesn’t even come close” to paying for its infrastructure needs. LaFontaine, the Williston schools superintendent, said she needs about $87 million to build two elementary schools and one intermediate school and to hire new teachers. State lawmakers voted down a bill last year that would have provided some funding. LaFontaine, who based her estimate of 1,200 new students this fall on new housing construction, asked oil company executives to meet with her recently and asked for help paying for new facilities. Begging for Money “I don’t know where else to go to beg for money,” she said. “I’m desperate.” LaFontaine and Koeser recently visited Governor Jack Dalrymple to request aid and ask that the formula used to return oil taxes to municipalities be revised. “It’s too early to say whether the Legislature would respond to that,” Dalrymple said in an interview. “About 30 percent of the taxes are returned to the counties and they return those to the cities and townships. Revenue is going up dramatically and that means their share is also going up dramatically.” See Says Page 42

Alfalfa road crossing Parenting through separation and divorce permit fees top $55,000 Divorcing parents are often faced with many new problems during this difficult time for the entire family. Although their marriage is ending, their role as parents continues through their lives. To help make this transition easier, Northwest Family Services Inc. staff member Nicole Martens, M.S., LPC will be teaching their Parenting Through Separation and Divorce class Monday night, August 20, 2012. The class will be in Fairview from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Northwest Technology Center southwest of Fairview. To enroll, please call 580-327-2900. Participants must pre-enroll; the class will be canceled if there is inadequate pre-enrollment. Class costs $30.00 per person. This class was designed at the request of the courts to help divorcing couples understand the problems their children may experience during, and after, a divorce or separation. It will fulfill the court order for all divorcing parents. Parents will learn skills to parent cooperatively, even though they are divorced. In the class, parents will learn how to effectively communicate with their children and with their former spouse. They will practice reflective listening skills, and will study various active communication techniques and non-verbal communications. They will also practice workable negotiation styles for dealing with conflict and rules for effective expressions.
By Roger McKenzie Road crossing permits fees provided a big haul to all three Alfalfa County districts this week. At Monday’s meeting of the Alfalfa County commissioners, 34 permits with fees totaling $55,125 were approved. District 1, as it usually does, garnered the most permits and total fees — 15.5 permits and $23,875 in fees. But District 3, with only eight permits, generated nearly as much in fees with $21,000. District 2 had 10.5 permits and $10,250 in fees. No bidders for CDBG improvements For the second time, the county received no bids on improvements to accommodate the handicapped at the courthouse. The county has received a community development block grant to make bathroom, sidewalk, and front door improvements to make the courthouse more accessible for the handicapped. The grant administrator will now be given the task of coming up with bids. County signs leases Even the county is getting in on the oil and gas leasing boom. Two leases of county owned land were approved at Monday’s meeting. The commissioners approved leasing offers from Chesapeake and Canyon Land, LLC. The county accepted Chesapeake offer of a three-year lease at $1,000 per acre and a 3/16th royalty for about five acres it owns in Section 10, Township 26 North, Range 11 West. For another third of an acre in Section 26, Township 28 North, Range 11 West, the county will get $1,500 per acre and a 3/16th royalty from Canyon Land. Brush rig The county’s fire fighting capability will be improved after action taken to seek bids for a brush rig for Cherokee Rescue. Alcoholic beverage tax Alcoholic beverage tax allocations for the month produced $7,616.17 for the counties 10 communities. Cherokee and Helena topped the list with revenues of $2,748.85 and $2571.43, respectively. As usual, Lambert got the least amount--$11. Other business In other business, the commissioners • approved appropriations and two lapsed appropriations from the past year. The money from the latter will go back into categories for this year’s budget. • accepted the monthly officers report of the election board. • approved a private property easement in District 3 to allow the county a place to put debris from cleaning out ditches. • approved a resolution for disposing of old and outdated office equipment. • approved minutes of their previous meeting, maintenance and operations warrants, and blanket purchase orders.

Hardtner Library-Dream Big Hardtner’s Summer Reading Program “Dream Big” gave children and adults a chance to read amazing books, win a laptop, and even attend space camp. This year was Hardtner Librarian Joy Helmer’s 25th year of summer reading. Joy’s passion is truly making the library an exciting place for all who enter. Joy always encourages every summer reading participant to read any kind of book that they find enjoyable. Through the years, library participants have been able to attend trips to the zoo, salt museum, water park, and plays. Readers have also been able to enjoy prizes for reading. Prizes included new books, show and pizza passes, and webkinz. But, this year was an exciting year because new laptops were given for individuals/families who read the most chapters. Bayli Hyde was the only reader who read individually. Her favorite books were Jane Eyre, Moby Dick, Insurgent, Divergent, Eggs, Shug, and To Kill a Mockingbird. Bayli said, “Thank you to the Hardtner Library Board, Joy Helmer, Suzanne Mitchell for donating the computers, and all of the Friends of Hardtner Library who make the Hardtner Library one of my favorite places in the world.”
From Page 35
After prizes were awarded, over 65 people enjoyed the Kansas Cosmosphere Space Camp. The evening consisted of
rocket presentations, liquid oxygen ice cream, trash cans flying in the air, and star observing.
Pictured are winners for the laptops: Briggs, Gatlin, Danielle and Kutter Jewell--2nd place with 2224 chapters, Gary Countryman--Hardtner’s Best Reader, Bayli Hyde--1st place with 2608 chapters, and Misty, Makayla, Gavin and Hailey McCullough--3rd place with 1776 chapters.

The North Dakota Legislature set aside $1.2 billion last spring to help counties cope with the oil boom’s impacts. About $885.3 million remains to be distributed. Demand for aid is high. The state received 167 applications last fall for $50 million in road improvement grants alone, said Gerry Fisher, assistant director of the state’s energy infrastructure and impact office. Oil Companies Oil companies say they’re doing their part to help western North Dakota cope. Houston-based Marathon gave $1 million in Dickenson; Continental donated $500,000 in Crosby; and New Yorkbased Hess Corp. (HES) contributed $25 million to the state for public education, said Ron Ness, president of the Bismarckbased North Dakota Petroleum Council. “Economic opportunity brings growing pains and changes to a very rural area
that hasn’t seen significant economic opportunity for decades,” Ness said. “It’s difficult, certainly, for any of us to keep up with the pace at which people are moving here.” With 5,349 producing wells in 2010 — compared with 3,367 three years earlier — North Dakota is the nation’s fourth- largest oil producer behind Texas, California and Alaska. The boom also brings other benefits. Last spring, Legislators allocated $110 million for the Western Area Water Supply Authority to build a pipeline from the Missouri River to deliver drinking water to five western counties. The $150 million project — which will require the authority to ask the Legislature for more funding — is expected to be complete in three years. ‘Unique Opportunity’ “We have a unique opportunity,” said Jaret Wirtz, the authority’s executive di-
rector. “This was never feasible before; there was never enough water or money available.” Like school superintendents who recently banded together to lobby for state funds, farmers are joining forces in the Northwest Landowners Association to push for more regulated growth. “I don’t think any of us want it to go away,” said Troy Coons, 48, a farmer and the group’s vice chairman. “We just want it managed and not a free-for-all. Most people want to be treated fair and respectably.” Hynek and other commissioners in the state’s largest oil producing county expect service needs to continue exploding as more workers flood the area. “We have 800 wells — they tell me there’s going to be 6,000 more in five years,” Hynek said. “It scares the hell out of me. They say you’d better get prepared for 50,000 more people.”
