by Lare HndmanThe Wall City Council met

Thursday, April 19, at 10:00 a.m. asa special board.

The board reviewed a buildingpermit for Dan and DawnHilgenkamp to build a pole barn inthe Kelly addition to use for stor-age. Mayor Dave Hahn said,There are already barns out there,so this barn wouldnt be out ofcharacter. The board approved amotion for the permit pending re-view by the Public Works Depart-ment.

There was a concern on a lesseequestion about who is responsiblefor installing a culvert. The culverthas a hole in it and is now pluggedwith debris. The city has a culvertwhich could be used to replace theplugged one. There was a consen-sus by the board that a new culvertbe installed by the Public WorksDepartment in the next two weeks.

Larry Gravatt, who has beenhired by the City of Wall to form an

Ambulance District, handed outtownship maps to board members.He apologized to the City for lettingthem down, however, went on to ex-plain that the action of the CountyCommissioners was probably bestand we should still move forwardwith a district election to get ap-proval.

Gravatt, Carolynn Anderson andBill Leonard went before the Pen-nington County Commissionersand were told to yield to requestsby four townships who do not wantto be part of the Wall AmbulanceDistrict, which Gravatt felt was notin the best overall interest of theproject. He advised the council thatthose four townships are going for-ward to form their own ambulancedistrict, which would remove themfrom the Wall district. By state law,they would then be required to pro-vide residents with an ambulanceservice.

Hahn asked, Can we make thiswhole financial situation work?Gravatt answered, This wont

jeopardize our plan. Gravatt wenton to say that those few residentsthat would be lost and at a Levy of.80 per thousand, the financial losswould be minimal.

Hahn then went over a list ofambulance district items to be dis-

cussed. It will cost the city $400 tohave the petition drawn up and$1,000 or higher if there are morevoting precincts and for electionworkers. It was discussed askingfor volunteers to man theprecincts. A motion was approvedto have the petition drawn up andto run an election.

Council members volunteered totake the petition around in theirwards and Anderson will circulatethe petition at the Wall Fire De-partments pancake supper whichwas held on Saturday, April 21.Gravatt will circulate the petitionin Wasta, Quinn and the area tothe north.

Hahn and council will put to-gether a sheet explaining why thisambulance district is so importantto the area. They will hand these

out while circulating the petitions.A motion was approved to holdthe election on Tuesday, July 10.

The big question that was askedby Hahn was, If the election fails,what is the citys options? Mem-bers discussed having a First Re-sponder Service but that servicecan only comfort a patient, stopthe bleeding and cannot transporta patient. Increase property taxeson the city residents? Ask the ruralcommunity for EMTs to help withthe service? Stop city projects tofund the service? Hahn then askedif the sewer project should bestopped and said, Its going to behard to pay for the main streetproject. Hustead said, we cantstop those projects they have to bedone. The last question that wasdiscussed by the council was todraw up a resolution to discon-tinue the ambulance service.These questions were strictly dis-cussion by the board but at sometime they are going to have toreach a conclusion if the ambu-lance district is not voted in.

Gravatt informed the board atthe last meeting there was goodsupport in favor for the new ambu-lance district and to remain posi-tive. The board agreed, good PRwork and making sure that every-one gets out to vote is their mainconcern at this time.

With no other business themeeting was adjourned.

I was hoping when I gotmoved doing this would line out asits not been easy but I could prac-tic writing, spelling and Ive talkedto people I havent met yet. Thegood part. Thought: Every accomplishmentstarts with the decision to try. Ac-complishment is the gradual resultof always driving to do better.

Wall Art Guild met April 23rd,at 9:00 a.m. at Wall Drug Store.Dorothy Jones, Nola Price, Norma

Volz and Lorna Moore were pres-ent.

Business: Lorna gave the finan-

cial report, income from member-ship, entry fees and donations atthe art show was $170.00 and billspaid out were $182.00.

The 2012 art show has receivedgood reviews from people and 162signed the guest book, many didnot sign the guest book so we esti-mated around 200 attended.

Displaying artwork locally wasdiscussed. Nola mentioned maybethe banks would display one pieceof art from different art club mem-bers and change to a differentartist each month. Nola will talk tothe banks and ask if this is some-thing they would consider.

It was decided the writers groupwas a nice touch at the art showthis year and will have them againnext year.

Nola thought we should contactDawn Newland and Kathy Thomp-son to give an art workshop next

winter for our art club or anyonethat would be interested in attend-ing.

Our next art club meeting willbe in October, when we start ournew year. Lorna made a motion in-stead of just having a meeting, togo to the restaurant south ofKadoka, for plein air paint out.Dorothy seconded.

by Cornelis R. StamThe Apostle Paul had

much that he yearned toteach the Hebrew believers-- wonderful truths thatwould have thrilled theirhearts -- but these truthswere "hard to be uttered,"or difficult to explain tothem, since they were "dullof hearing." The word "dull"in Heb. 5:11 really means"slothful," or indifferent (asin Heb. 6:12). They werenot merely hard of hearing,as we say, but were toolazy, too indifferent, spiritu-ally, to pay attention. Theywere not sufficiently inter-ested.

This is always a seriouscondition in the light of thefact that "God hath spo-ken," and that disobedi-ence to His Word will be

judged (Heb. 1:1,2; 2:1-3).Yet, alas, this is the condi-tion of the professingChurch today. The greatmajority of religious peopleare not sufficiently inter-ested in what God has saidto engage in diligent,prayerful study and, likethose of Paul's day, stillhave to be taught "the first

principles" of the Bible.They have remainedbabes, spiritually, unable todigest anything but "milk,"

and so remain "unskillful inthe Word of righteousness"(Heb. 5:12-14).

What has brought thiscondition about? Is it be-cause our Bibles are beingburned and the Churchpersecuted for reading it?Is it because God is unwill-ing to lead us further intoHis truth? Most assuredlynot. It is because so manymen of God in high placesno longer have the singlepassion to know God'sWord and to make itknown. They could be asgreatly used of God inteaching the Scriptures astheir predecessors were,but they are "slothful ofhearing" and hence canpresent their hearers withlittle that is of true value.

This, in turn, is reflectedin the religious masses.They "love" their Bibles, butnot enough to study themdiligently and becomeworkmen whom God canapprove. Let us not benumbered among these.Rather, let it be our onegreat desire to gain a clearunderstanding of God'sWord, rightly divided -- for

His sake, for our own sakeand for the sake of theneedy souls about us.

ARE YOu LISTENING?

Submitted Lloyd & Margee WilleyYes, I know the Wasta Easter

Egg Hunt is old news, but it wasthe best yet (we say that everyyear). We really appreciate theDynamic Sister Duo Tammy andMoni and their willing partners infun for all their help. There were45 kids at the Lurz Park, Satur-day, April 7! I dont know howmany adults. This has been an an-nual event since 1999 when NitaJeppesen brought the idea to theother senior citizens. It has been

fun from the beginning and hasbeen a community event with par-ents, grandparents and neighborsorganizing games and providinggift bags. We would also like to rec-ognize the big bunny to the eastfor providing fresh eggs. This bigbunny hangs out a lot at the WallFood Center.

Richard Johnston, as long as hewas able, would come specificallyto hide eggs for the bigger kids. Hereally liked to challenge them!Wed be finding very ripe blue eggsthrough summer. I believe it wasRichard who said something likeKids now-a-days are real lucky.When I was a kid we hunted andshot the Easter Bunny to cook forsupper. Sounds like a Richardhumor, but if anyone out theretakes credit for it, thats okay byme!

Its been a busy week since weve

been home. Our terrific cat-sittersand good friends, Hazel Kalkbren-ner, Jamy and Ray Williams andMary Lewis did such a great jobthat we were pretty well snubbedby Callie the Cat.

Weve done a little wanderingaround Wasta. Lloyd stopped tosee Jerry, Barb and Tuff and camehome happy to report that Tuffthe best dog ever was okay andhappy to see him. That was allthey discussed, I guess! Well, Tuffis a wonderful dog, for sure.

Hazel Kalkbrenner is busy inher back yard with garden readi-ness projects. Her front yard flow-ers are so pretty.

Had a brief visit with Anna Lee

Humphrey at Good Samaritan.She is doing well and progressingwith therapy after her recent sec-ond surgery. She is positive and ingood spirits. Daughter, MarilynStover was also there as wasgranddaughter Amanda and hertwo beautiful little ones, LanieMae and J.T.

Mary Lewis has her cornersunken garden looking great.She also lends a capable hand atthe park. Soon she will be havingfamily time and is looking forward

to seeing kids and grandkids.Speaking of capable hands,

Dorothy Bathel is working on yetanother beautiful quilt! She alsoputs in a lot of time with flowersand other work at the park as wellas her own garden.

Faye and I had a good lunch andfun conversation Friday. We got alaugh about her cats house beingre-roofed by Ken Skillingstad.Well, it is a fine looking cat house.

There were some travelers inWall from New York City that Fayeand I enjoyed talking with. We didmention after they told of their in-

teresting trip through the Bad-lands and the prairie dog townsthey had seen, that sometimesNew Yorkers were very vocal aboutthe little doggies being put on thedarling and endangered list.They said No, they would not re-turn home and begin a club toSave the Doggies. We assuredthem their remark would makenews so here it is in the news

three New Yorkers say No toestablishing group to Save Danc-ing, Kissing, Darling Doggies.

One more bit and then I quit.Kortney and Derek Smid and bigsister Natalee will welcome babygirl Kylee in June. Kortney, Derekand Natalee moved here from thePhoenix area about two years ago.Its good to have them and so goodthey want to stay. Congratula-tions!

A lot more news held over fornext week.

Happy trails!

Take steps to prevent tick-borne illnessSouth Dakotans heading out-

doors need to protect themselvesfrom ticks and the diseases theycan carry, says a state health offi-cial.

Each year we have SouthDakotans infected with tularemia,Rocky Mountain spotted fever andLyme disease all tick-borne ill-nesses,: said Dr. Lon Kightlinger,State Epidemiologist for the De-partment of Health. Last year wereported four cases of lyme dis-ease, eight of tularemia, three ofehrlichiosis, and one Rocky Moun-

tain spotted fever in SouthDakota.Kightlinger noted that the de-

partment investigates every caseof tick-borne disease reported.Those investigations found that allfour cases of Lyme disease re-ported in 2011 had out-of-state tickexposure. South Dakotas prairiesactually help to deter Lyme dis-ease somewhat because the deertick that carries it needs heavilyforested areas to thrive.

A 2011 tick surveillance projectin eastern South Dakota foundnone of the loxodes black-leggeddeer ticks that carry Lyme disease.The SDSU-led project surveyedforested areas around Sica Hollow,Oak Lake and Lewis and ClarkRecreation Area multiple timesover an 88-day period betweenJune and October.

While we did not find the deertick that carries Lyme disease, wedid find that Dermacentor vari-abilis, the dog tick, was plentiful inall three locations, said Dr.Michael Hildreth, a professor inthe departments of Biology andMicrobiology and also Veterinaryand Biomedical Science at SDSU.The dog tick transmits RockyMountain Spotted Fever, tu-laremia and ehrlichiosis.

Symptoms of tick-borne illnessinclude sudden onset of a moder-ate-to-high fever, stiff neck, deep

muscle pain, arthritis, fatigue, se-vere headache, chills, a rash on thearms and legs or around the site ofthe bite, and swollen lymph nodes,particularly in the neck. If you de-velop any of these symptoms aftera tick bite, see your doctor. WithRocky mountain spotted fever theillness does not start immediatelyafter the tick bite, but typicallyfive to 10 days after the tick at-tachment.

A tick bite is usually painlessand appears as a small red bumpwith a bright red halo. To removean attached tick, use tweezers or atissue and pull slowly and steadily,being careful not crush it. Thenapply antiseptic to the site to pre-vent infection. If you use barehands to remove a tick, wash yourhands thoroughly with warmwater and soap, being especially

careful not to touch your eyes be-fore washing.

To repel ticks when outdoorstuck your pants into your socksand spray clothes and any exposedskin with a tick repellent. Otherprecautions include:

Check frequently for tickswhen outside, especially the scalpand folds of skin. Ticks need to beattached for several hours tospread infection so you can signif-icantly cut your risk by checkingfor and removing ticks right away.

Check small children thor-

oughly and often for ticks whentheyve been outside or have hadcontact with pets or livestock thatmay have ticks.

Ask your veterinarian aboutappropriate insecticides and col-lars to protect pets from ticks andlimit the number they carry intothe home. For added protection,apply insecticides and tick repel-lents to your pets bedding.

Check your animals frequentlyfor ticks. To remove ticks from an-imals, apply constant traction withforceps or tweezers. If you mustuse your fingers, wear disposablegloves and wash hands thoroughlywith soap and water afterward.

Fact sheets on specific tick-borne diseases can be found on thedepartment of Health website athttp://doh.sd.gov/DiseaseFacts/.

Members Absent: Stan Anderson, Coun-cilman; Mike Anderson, Councilman

Motion by Leonard, second by Hustead toapprove the amended agenda with theTransfer Station lease agreement addedfor discussion. Motion carried.

Motion by Dunker, second by Leonard toapprove the building permit for Dan &Dawn Hilgenkamp to build a pole barn i nShearer Addition #1, Block 3, Lot 3; pend-ing Public Works Director Clark reviewingfor setbacks. Motion carried.

There was discussion on who would beresponsible for replacing the culvert onthe driveway east of the Transfer Stationbuilding. The City has a culvert that canbe used as a replacement. The consen-sus was if that culvert is owned by the cityand meant to replace the culvert east ofthe building, then it should be the citys re-sponsibility to replace it.

Larry Gravatt reported to the council thecounty commissioners rejection to ap-prove the Ambulance District resolution.The commissioners stated it will need to

be a vote of the people to form the Ambu-lance District. Larry apologized for lettingthe city down. The council stated he wasnot at fault; it was understood that it couldbe rejected. Larry explained the proposedboundaries were based on the Ambu-lance response area today. He felt itwould be disastrous if we would haveagreed to automatically exclude portionsof the four townships on the southernedge of the proposed district which areCastle Butte, Imlay, Conata and Scenicthat did not want to be included in the dis-trict. That decision would have mush-roomed and other townships would haverequested the same treatment. The fourtownships chose to form a district of theirown which is allowed by state statue.They will need to provide ambulanceservice to the people within that district;

whether it will be to contract for the serv-ice or start a service of their own.

Motion by Dunker, second by Leonard toapprove moving forward with an electionto form an Ambulance District and hire theCounty Auditor to draw up the petition andrun the election. Motion carried.

Motion by Dunker, second by Hustead tohold the election at all the countyprecincts within the proposed district andask for volunteer election board workers.Motion carried.
