The Haakon School District
Board of Education began its
Monday, December 16, meeting
with a tour of the boiler room.
A new heat exchanger had to be
installed. Head of maintenance,
Steve Leithauser, single handedly
plumbed in the unit.
I cant express enough how
much Steve has done. We really
appreciate how much work he has
put in. Its been stressful around
here, especially with how much
were spending on fuel oil, said
Superintendent Keven Morehart.
Since the old heat exchanger,
which was connected to the geothermal well, went down, the
school district has used $25,000
worth of fuel oil.
The rest of the meeting was in
front of members of the high
school student council. Each member is required to attend at least
one school board meeting.
Preliminary discussion has
begun concerning the future possibility of a bus barn for the districts school busses and vans. No

The Haakon County Crooners mens singing group performed their annual Christmas concert in the courtroom of the
Haakon County Courthouse, Sunday, December 15. Some of the vocal presentations were traditional, while some were new
additions to the Crooners repertoire. This year, a violin accompanist was added to several songs. After the performance,
the audience was invited to snacks and social time in the community room. Shown, back row, from left, are soloist Joe Gittings, Roger Porch, Mark Nelson and Mike West. Third row: Paul Staben, Steve Ferley and Rick Doud. Second row: Art

with people, many who only attended on the holidays. Everything would be bright; clothing,
lights, decorations, smiles. The
piano, hymns, carols and special
music would be joyous. Everything would be up-beat. It was,
after all, a glorious birthday party
for which people had spent weeks
of preparation with decorations,
gifts and food.
The birth of a any healthy baby
is often a joyous thing. This,
though, was the yearly celebration
of the quiet coming of a redeemer
for humanitys frailties and
wrongdoings.
Yet, even the first Christmas
had its darkness. Rome and its
taxes ruled the land. The regional
and local governors were crooked.
Shortly a mass murder of infants
would be ordered and carried out.
And, eventually, this baby would
be executed so people of power
could keep their standing.
Today, darkness still exists. A
birth, if healthy, may be just one
more burden. People in power still
crave power. There are still the
poor, some even despite their most
diligent efforts. There is still murder. Children, as well as others,

Cold Temperatures
and Winter Wheat
About every year when the temperatures dip severely, the question gets raised, how is the cold
weather affecting the winter
wheat? Contrary to the fall of 2012,
for the most part, winter wheat
planted in the fall of 2013 went
into soil that had decent moisture.
Most of that which did not have
good moisture received precipitation during the snow/rain event in
early October, depending on the
area of the state.
This alone put the winter wheat
in a better situation than the dry
conditions of 2012. The majority of
the winter wheat that was planted
early and either into adequate
moisture or received moisture from
the October precipitation was able
to grow, produce a few leaves and
maybe a tiller or two. Both high
and low temperatures for the day
tapered off fairly gradually, allowing the plants to harden off before
the recent below zero weather occurred. Some winter wheat was
planted quite late, and either did
not, or barely emerged, which may
be somewhat less winter hardy
than wheat that had time to pro-

Lynne Eliason (Mrs. Dennis
Eliason) stopped by to say, Hi.
She was at the Somerset Court
staff Christmas party. She used to
live near us in Philip. I would be
right in their backyard when I
would crawl through the fence on
a shortcut from Hansen Court to
the bowling alley for lunch. (Remember those dinners that
Dorothy Hansen used to put out?)
So, Ike Dale is having a 85th
birthday party! Happy birthday,
Ike. I used to see Ike when we
were both at the elderly meals at
the Senechal Apartments in
Philip.
December 9, 2013, at Somerset
Court, we had crafts with Amy.
We made stick-on Christmas
trees. They were cute and colorful.
Thank you, Amy! Amy also paid
us for doing word searches and
put out new word searches, one
about Christmas cheer and one
about Santa and his reindeer. The
Somerset bus took a bunch of residents to a dollar store and a department store. Then, we had the
Somerset Court movie, an old favorite, A Christmas Story.

McKnight went out to two parties
One was at the residence where
her daughter, Gloria, lives in
Spearfish and one was in Sturgis.
Irene reported that they were eating most of the afternoon.
My nephew, Leonard Meyer,
and wife Jean sent a nice Christmas package. Thank you, Leonard
and Jean. There were lovely family photos and a 60th wedding anniversary portrait. They also sent
two books, one was Mary Higgins
Clarks new book, The Lost
Years, and the other was Eat the
Cookie, Buy the Shoes. The second book is said to be about doing
more fun things and enjoying
things that are available.
My daughter, Carol, sent a delightful bunch of photos from our
Thanksgiving together at Wayne
and Gwynns and some of her
great-grands in four old chairs.
One chair is the one my sister,
Evalynn, had as a child, from
around the year 1905, and the
other three are chairs Virgil had

This Monday turned out to be a
busy one, so I am getting a late
start on my news column for this
week, so Im feeling a bit out of
sorts. But, all gets done in its
time! Its a busy time of the year!
Looking back to those years when
we had kids in school there were
the church Christmas programs
and the school Christmas programs, goodies to bake and school
presents to buy. It was busy, but
with all that busyness, it was a
time for making good memories.
And speaking of church Christmas programs, I remember some
of us CCD teachers making cardboard animals with a hole cut out
for the faces of the little kids.
Those cardboard animals were a
part of our Nativity scene. Cant
remember what year that was,
but it had to be a number of years
ago, as our son, Christopher, was
one of the sheep and will turn 28
on January 1, 2014. The cut-out
cardboard for the sheep was
painted white and once the paint
was dry we put glue on that paint
and then cotton on that glue working towards making it look like
sheeps wool. Those cardboard animals were saved and have been
in some of the live Nativity scenes
at Christmas in Midland. This
year being one of those years,
some of us had to smile as we remembered back to the making of
those cardboard animals. Good
memories! Time to get at the
news!

Above, adding to the variety of the concert, these three ladies from left, Amanda
McIlravy, Peyton DeJong and Afton Burns put a trio sound to one of the choir
pieces.
The Philip High School band took the lead for the 2013 High School Band/Choir Christmas Concert, held Monday, December 16. Seldom do we sit back and enjoy
any more, said director Barb Bowen. That enjoyment came in pieces such as Holiday Bells, Home for the Holidays and Spirits Bright. Not everything was laid
back; introducing the piece Voltage, Bowen said, Its fun to play. Its energy, thats all it is!

to them up there.
The reason so many get lost as
they use the new devices to direct
them where they want to go and it
directs them to make wrong turns.
So if you want to travel do it the
old safe way. Map out your trip on
a map and follow the road signs as
it is the safest way to go. Those devices are good in a town but are
not to safe in the back out of the
way places, they just dont work.
What a nice day Monday, Dec.
16, it was 40 degrees when I got up
this morning but did notice they
had to chop ice on the tank. I imagine that was due to so much frozen
water in the tank due to the real
cold weather prior.
Our sympathy goes out to the
family of Raymond Dean. Raymond and Francis (Rauche) Dean
were our good neighbors. For
many years they lived north of us
about nine miles and their children all grew up in this neighborhood and attended school here.
Some of the children married local
kids in the Philip and the Midland
areas.
The song, Silent Night, has
quite a history. We are lucky to
have it today.
Christmas Eve in the Australian
Alps, a newly constructed Church
of St. Nicholas in Oberndorf and
the church organ was broken ruining prospects for an evenings carefully planned music. But soon
learned that all problems are
Gods opportunities.
The Lord causes all things to
work together for good to those
who love Him. It came to mind to
write a new song, one that could be
sung organless. Hastily he wrote
the words silent night, holy night,
all is calm, all is bright... Taking
the text to the organist, Franz
Gruber, he explained the situation
and asked him to compose a simple tune.
That night, Dec. 24 1818, Silent
Night was sung for the first time
as a duet accompanied by a guitar.
Shortly after that as Karl Mauracher came to repair the organ,
he heard of the disaster on Christmas Eve. Acquiring a copy of the
text and tune he spread it
throughout the Alpine region in
Austria, referring it as Tiroler
Volkslied. Then it came to the attention of the Strasser family,
makers of fine chamois skin
gloves, who were a group of family
singers.
This was a great song for the
snow clad region in the Alps.
Silent Night was first published
for congregational singing in 1838
in a German hymnal. Then appeared in English form in a book
for Sunday school songs in 1863. If
it were not for a broken organ we
would not have this beautiful
hymn. So it is most fitting to play
it with a guitar accompanist as
that was used the first time it was
played for a congregation.
Merry Christmas to you and
may your holidays be calm, merry
and bright!

The Haakon County Board of Commissioners met at 1:00 PM on Tuesday, December 3, 2013. A quorum was
established with Vice Chairman Tom Radway, Members Gary Snook and Nicholas
Konst. Chairman Stephen Clements arrived at the meeting at 2:14 PM. Commissioner Edward Briggs was absent. Auditor
Pat Freeman, Deputy Auditor Carla
Smith, Sheriff Fred Koester, Highway Superintendent Kenny Neville, Eric Hanson
from Kens Refrigeration and Pioneer Review Representative Nancy Haigh were
also present.
The November 5, 2013, Regular Meeting
Minutes were read. On the first page,
fourth paragraph, Commissioner Gary
Snook made a motion to amend the December 2 date to December 3, 2013.
Commissioner Nick Konst seconded with
all in agreement. Commissioner Gary
Snook made a motion to approve the
minutes with the above amendment.
Commissioner Nick Konst seconded with
all in agreement. Auditor Freeman asked
if the Election School in Sioux Falls, SD,
on November 12-15, 2013, had been discussed at the last meeting. There had
been no motion made to approve the
training. Auditor Freeman would not be
able to attend. Deputy Auditor Carla
Smith would go in her place. Mary Harrell
would be in the office until Friday. This
would be tabled until the next meeting.
The Supplemental Hearing of the Highway Budget was conducted at 1:15 PM.
No one appeared at the hearing to discuss the $20,000 supplement. Commissioner Nick Konst made the motion to
approve the supplement. Commissioner
Gary Snook seconded the motion with all
in agreement.
There were four uniform alcoholic beverage license renewals presented to the
commission for approval. South Fork
Ranch, LLC, Golf Club Association,
Wheeler Brooks Post 173 and T-34 Truck
stop.
Eric Hanson of Kens Refrigeration met
with the commission to discuss the fuel oil
furnace (40 to 50 years old) and air conditioner (new in 1974 or 39 years old). He
reported that there were leaks in the condenser coil and that one of the fan motors
had blown up during the last of the summer. He made the suggestion that the
commission should look into a geothermal well and heating it that way. Auditor
Freeman will get together some statistics
as to what fuel costs were over the past
four years and the repair costs. This will
be tabled for more discussion at a later
date.
The commissioners were approached
about the spelling of Kronk Road. The
name has been misspelled since the beginning and needs to be corrected. The
proper spelling is Cronk Road. A motion
was made by Commissioner Nick Konst
and seconded by Commissioner Gary
Snook. Motion carried. Auditor Freeman
would let Director of Equalization Toni
Rhodes know to make the changes.

agreed to by all.

by Governor
Dennis Daugaard
The cost of higher education
across the country has risen much
faster than the rate of inflation
over the past few decades. Higher
education is less affordable now
than it has been in a very long
time. Although South Dakota institutions are less expensive than
most in the rest of the country, we
should still strive to keep higher
education affordable.
Todays jobs are increasingly requiring a higher percentage of
workers who have education beyond a high school diploma. South
Dakota will need more graduates
with everything from technical
certificates to doctorate degrees.
To continue adding high paying
jobs in innovative fields, the state
must have the educated workers
companies need.
Nursing, welding, machining
and accounting are just a few of
the areas where South Dakota
needs a larger workforce. A common theme tying these careers together is the need for additional
education after high school.
Students also reap tremendous
benefits from higher education.
People who earn a degree after
high school earn higher wages
throughout their lives than those
with no advanced degree.
When I was in college, I worked
every summer, and also had parttime jobs during the school year.
Working to help pay for ones own
educational costs is a good thing;
we all value those things for which
we must work. Still, we must ensure that the cost of higher education does not rise to a level at
which students are unable to afford it.
My budget this year includes
funds to hold down tuition at our
universities and at our technical
institutes. I also hope to move this
conversation to the forefront of
policy discussions for the years to
come. Higher education in South
Dakota is a vital piece for the future of this state and we must ensure that all South Dakotans can
afford the investment.
