“Be careful with your words, once they are
said, they can only be forgiven, not forgotten.” Unknown
Here is some good news submitted to The World Headquarters of
The Gladstone Good News
Oh my God! The top 10 list is hilarious! I MAY be a Gladstonian. I’ve thought about picking off
a pheasant from my office window. I would never do it, but the fact that it even crossed my
mind probably counts. Sent in from K.T. in Dickinson referring to the May issue
Are you still accepting photos of people skating? Sent in from A.M. in Gladstone referring to May issue
Answer: Yes, please send in what you like. I can’t guarantee I will be able to put your photos in, but I will try. If I
don’t post them right away I might post them in a future issue. Email is [email protected]
We are having a school reunion and car show, can we post information about this in the
Gladstone Good News? Sent in from F.M. in Lefor
Answer: I don’t see why not. Send me what you have and I will try to work it in.
Thanks Haylee for sending in
your photo of you and Bella.
After seeing this great photo, I
think in the next issue I will
put Gladstonians with their
pet pictures in. Send in a
photo of you and your pet.
And I will try to post it.

“Never forget that the purpose for which a
man lives is the improvement of the man
himself, so that he may go out of this world
having, in his great sphere or his small one,
done some little good for his fellow creatures
and labored a little to diminish the sin and
sorrow that are in the world.” William E. Gladstone
I want to answer a couple of comments and questions about the Gladstone
Good News. First of all, the Gladstone Good News is just that - Good News! The
reason for the Gladstone Good News is that it is a Pay It Forward magazine. This
means that it is given out free of charge in order to make a positive statement about
the people it touches. It’s not about the money, it’s about the kindness and
positivity that it brings. It’s that simple.
Advertising is also free. To have an ad in the magazine, all you have to do is to
Pay It Forward to someone you do not know, and Pay It Forward with no
expectations in return. If you choose to advertise, then all I ask is that you tell what
you did, so that the Gladstone Good News can tell others. It’s not about the details,
it’s about the action of making a difference. If you want to be anonymous about
paying it forward that’s ok too.
“Promote what you love instead of bashing what you hate.”
“I think about this often and try to live my life accordingly. I don’t want to be
remembered as someone who constantly has a negative opinion about people or
things. I’d much rather be remembered for encouraging and taking time to
appreciate the differences whether it be talents, gifts, personality, ect. of others.” This is not my quote, but it says how I feel perfectly.

“Denny’s Ancestors” The result of countless minutes of research.
Below is a painting of David and
Goliath, also in Denny’s family lineage. I
guess you can’t win them all.
Our crack research team
found that Denny’s ancestors
moved to Japan for several
years. They trained one of their
sons in the Art of Sumo. He was
known as “Little Mosquito.”
Archeologists have come to the
conclusion that indeed, the second from
the right is Denny’s ancestor.
Turns out Denny is related to
Napoleon. I see the resemblance.

“To Plant a garden, is to believe in

Iris is my favorite flower. My very first summer job was working in a ½ acre Iris garden.
I plan on planting Iris, Hosta and Gladiola among other things in my Gladstone garden.
These plants are very hardy and easy to take care of. As a rule I usually use red, blue and pink for
color combinations. But this white iris is hard to pass on.

Hanging out at the Pub
Gladstone Australia: A man was cited and fined $400.00 for doing donuts and making
noise in a parking lot in Gladstone. He told the judge that he was trying to get a bee out of his car.
Okay, I’ll buy that.
Gladstone Michigan:
Woman saves husband from
bear attack by hitting bear
over the head with a shoot
gun. The bear then ran away.
The reason she used
the shoot gun to hit the bear
was because she didn’t know
how to load the shells.
Sometimes I come across some
things that just make me scratch my
head. I found this. “Virginia is for
Lovers” and under their Places to go
and Things to do section they have
this ad for a tank museum.
Maybe in some weird way
it might be romantic… What do you mean it might
be romantic!!!

Gary Greff has created a new
tavern and retreat in Regent. Giving of
his talents and hard work on the
enchanted Highway project for over
twenty years, Gary has now created a
great space in the old Regent High
School. Recently, nineteen suites were
completed to go along with the great
gym and now the Medieval Tavern. A
restaurant is also on the way. Now you
will be able to make the fun trip out and
enjoy his castle theme retreat. I know
I’m always looking for something new
and this is it….give it a try.
Great News…Now, at the beginning of the Enchanted Highway you can visit Larry Praus’
The Pub. At the end of the Enchanted Highway you can enjoy Gary Greff’s Medieval Tavern.
Larry and crew are once again improving the menu, and trying new items. The Pub wants you to
have a good time and enjoy good food at The Pub. Ask about their new sandwich, it’s very good. I also
found out that if you like your beer cold and in a cold glass, they’ve got that too. Larry is making things
better all the time. Larry takes great pride in what he does, and The Pub is no exception. Thanks Larry

Haylee Wax Gladstonian of the month
Female ownership of farms in the United States has risen every year for the
last fifteen years. It is estimated that at least 28% of all farms are now owned by
women. In North Dakota that number is only 10%. The reason for the difference
in North Dakota is that farming is more capital intensive. The type of crops that
are grown in this region and the fewer number of crop varieties, results in higher
equipment usage, thus greater capital is needed.
Everybody knows Haylee Wax. She is outgoing, loves farming, family and is
fearless. Women farmers should take notice of Haylee. She is going to make a
difference. Quality and pride in what she does, is over the top, and she believes
that will make her even more successful. Her father instilled a great passion in her
for the farm life. Haylee is now in her mid twenties, and I love this statement that
she made, “I have been to California many times, but I would rather go to a
cotton gin or farm and watch their operation, than do that Disneyland crap.” Now
that’s a hardcore farmer for you.

Bismarck State should be a four year program, they gave me hands on
experience in what I needed to learn, and they were great. Haylee graduated
from college and she will combine a degree with her experience to create a good
life for herself. There is no doubt that she is a very motivated person.
The Heart River meanders around their property and that is just fine by Haylee.
Lefor is flatlander, God’s country, but flatlander. I think she likes the river more
right now, but that might change. Haylee is like the river, she goes with the flow.
“It’s hard work, but it’s my work.
It’s farming, but it’s my home.”
Haylee Wax
“I like to make stuff for
the garden” Says Haylee.
When she is not working
or thinking about the farm
she likes to make things
out of wood. She meet a
man she loves. She is doing
what she loves. Life is good
for Haylee Wax, she
deserves it. I know this is an earlier photo, but it is great in so many ways.
The family 1965 Chevelle
Thank you Haylee
One out of every twelve jobs in the economy is connected to the farm in one way or another.

Gladestone is a small town, but many people know about
Gladestone. The town has quite a reputation among the surrounding
towns. Some of the reputation is deserved, some not. The people in
Gladestone see themselves as different, and sometimes they
perpetuate the stereotype just because they can. Take Bob Park for
example, he always seems to have everything under control, but there
always seems to be this nagging sense that things aren’t always as they
seem.
“Gosh, we have been talking for two hours” says Bob, “I got to
go.” Mary didn’t realize the time either as the café was empty the
whole time. The two just got lost in their conversation. Mary jumps up
Gladestone, West Dakota
Gladestone is a town where all the men are handsome and strong and the
women are beautiful and smart. The dogs don’t bark or bite and every child is
an angel.

from the chair that she had been sitting on, a little embarrassed that
she had gotten into such an intimate conversation with Bob. She likes
Bob, but she has never really thought of Bob on any level other than a
customer coming into the café. Now she felt somewhat vulnerable.
“Well Hon, I got to get back to work,” turning her back to Bob and
walking back to the long oak bar. “Okay Mary, see you later.” says Bob,
feeling a little confused. Bob heads to the door and leaves into the
bright sunlit afternoon.
Spike heads down Layne street. Layne is an old established street,
with large shade trees protecting the white clad houses and their finely
trimmed lawns from the sun. He turns his head left and right looking
and sniffing the air in both directions as he passes. The roses on the
white picket fences mingle with the smell of grass and the scent of
other dogs in the neighborhood.
