Unique Bubblers
Twenty-six youngsters participated in a
craft outside the Arlington Public Li-
brary on Wednesday afternoon, June

along with homemade bubble solution,
were used to make unique bubblers.
The craft made for a quick science les-
son and loads of fun, according to Ar-
lington Public Library Director Kathy
Homme. Maryn Pazdernik was one of
the participants. She is the daughter of
Stephanie Halverson, Arlington.

The City Council, in anoth-
er move, unanimously ap-
proved a motion to accept a

The cost of $115 per ma-
chine, per hour is the same as

Arli-Dazzle
Parade
The City Council unani-
mously approved a motion to
approve a route extension and
staging request as presented
by Kim Schneider for the an-
nual Arli-Dazzle Parade.
The route for the parade,
which concluded at the cor-
ner of Kick’s Bakery in the
past four years, will now ex-
tend two blocks to the west
and cross Highway 5.
Parade entries can now exit
along West Main Street to
County Road 9.
Parade entries which need
to return to the staging area
can turn left on Sixth Avenue
Southwest and then left on
West Adams Street.
The staging area will be
held from just east of the rail-
road tracks along East Main
Street all the way down to the
city garage.
The moves, according to
Schneider, will alleviate con-
gestion and open up parking
space near St. Paul’s Luther-
an Church.
City Council talks snow,
winter activity at meeting
By Dave Pedersen

After two years of a five-
year grant program, Sibley
County can see improvements
being made in the effort to de-
crease alcohol, tobacco and
drug use by students in the
community.
The claim was made by
Tami LaGow, director of the
Sibley County Partnership in
Prevention program at the
board of commissioners meet-
ing on Tuesday, June 25.
LaGow presented her annu-
al report for the Planning and
Implementation grant between
Public Health and Human
Services and the Sibley East
School District.
The program includes a
coalition comprised of 14 sec-
tors within the community, es-
tablished in November of
2011. The coalition was creat-
ed in response to receiving the
$1 million grant covering five
years from the Minnesota De-
partment of Human Services.
“The mission of the coali-
tion is to build a safe, healthy
and chemically free environ-
ment for youth by providing
support and direction,” said
LaGow. “The reason for the
five-year length of the educa-
tion program is to work at
building sustainability.”
LaGow said the program
has only been going for two
years and it will take time to
see big changes. However, im-
provement is being reported.
In the alcohol compliance
check in the Gibbon and
Winthrop areas, 100 percent
of the students were in com-
pliance.
In a recent survey, some 89
percent of Sibley East stu-
dents agree that they would
support a friend if they chose
not to drink alcohol. The sur-
vey showed that 92 percent of
parents don’t allow students to
drink alcohol in their home.
Plus, 81 percent of the stu-
dents do not take alcohol in a
given month.
Two out of three students
reported never riding with
someone who has been drink-
ing. Most students would
rather not drink when hanging
out with friends.
“We learned that the percep-
tion of the students is that
more students are using than
they actually are,” notes
LaGow. “So, it is important
that we work hard to get these
messages out and that we
bridge the gap between per-
ception and reality.
“If we know what the norms
are in the community, we tend
to follow them,” adds LaGow.
“By showing the students that
most of their peers are not
using alcohol, it will have an
impact on them.”
One of the main things done
by LaGow is to work with the
schools, implementing cur-
riculum in grades six to 10.
“It is an evidence based cur-
riculum that teaches about
chemical use, but mainly
about alcohol,” said LaGow.
“The program builds off of
each other every year, so what
is learned in sixth grade is re-
inforced in seventh grade and
so on.”
A “class action” curriculum
is offered in grades nine and
10. It is like a judicial system
where students are sitting in a
courtroom and presenting
cases.
“For example, it shows if
someone was in a drunken
driving scenario and how it
plays out in court,” said
LaGow. “It has students up
there talking to their peers
about really important issues.”
The program also provides
server training to show how to
check ID’s and the importance
of doing the job correctly so
minors are not using alcohol.
A big part of the grant pro-
gram is the advertising seen
around the county, pointing
out the positives of the pro-
gram for the student body.
“We will take a survey each
year to determine usage and
how our grant is doing, ”
LaGow adds. “The work we
are doing is very exciting.
This is definitely on the cut-
ting edge and Minnesota has
been a leader in this area.”
County grant program working to decrease student chemical use
Emergency declared
after flash floods
By Dave Pedersen
Correspondent
The Sibley County board
declared a state of emergency
as is warranted for conditions
resulting from the flash flood
event of June 22 at the meet-
ing on Tuesday, June 25.
Bryan Gorman, Emergency
Management Director, said
the heavy rains totaled 7.5
inches in two days, causing a
significant amount of public
property damage. He adds,
“We will beat the threshold to
qualify for assistance.”
The action was taken in
order to get FEMA funding
from the Federal government
to help in the cleanup.
In one incident, Gorman
said he got a call from the
City of New Auburn Sunday
morning asking for pumps to
remove the “river running
though the center of town.”
Gorman said the county has
one pump, while others were
brought in from area cities
such as Winthrop and Carver
County.
In Henderson the city had
to put stop logs in the levy
system and requested more
sand bags. The road south of
Henderson was said to be
closed because of flooding
from the Rush River.
In other related business,
Gorman said new Emergency
Management Deputy Joe Sav-
age is on board in his part
time position. Seth Jones is a
summer intern from North
Dakota State University
working to update the emer-
gency plan.
Gorman said the county
was approved for a grant by
the state to update its hazard
mitigation plan. Cost is esti-
mated at $40,000 with a coun-
ty match, which means
$10,000 will be covered by
Sibley County.
County learns it can get
more new staff for lower cost
By Dave Pedersen
Correspondent
Sibley County will receive
substantial funding to cover
the costs of new employees
that are needed to service the
Federal government’s Afford-
able Care Act (ACA).
The good news was report-
ed by Vicki Stock, Public
Health and Human Services
Director, at the county board
of commissioners meeting on
Tuesday, June 25.
At the previous meeting,
County Administrator Matt
Jaunich presented a report es-
timating Sibley County would
spend about $38,000 on two
new employees after 50 per-
cent of the cost is covered by
matching Federal dollars. The
staff is needed to service an
expected increased case load
of about 500 clients.
Stock recently learned that
the reimbursement will be 75
percent from the Federal gov-
ernment. Plus, she learned the
state is allowing the county to
claim 90 percent funding for
the two positions the first two
years.
“Overall, we are adding the
two positions, but the net cost
for the first two years will be
10 percent,” adds Stock. “We
will be doing some internal
organizing and what I want to
do is assign a couple of peo-
ple strictly to the medical as-
sistance program.”
In a different matter, Stock
said the county will be man-
dated to hire two staff for the
new MnCHOICES implemen-
tation, which will be totally
funded.
Stock is recommending the
hire of a social worker/nurse
to help pick up some case
load increases and the other to
be certified as an assessor for
those new programs.
“Based on our numbers we
should be looking at hiring
2.5 staff members, ” notes
Stock. “We will look to reor-
ganize the department inter-
nally, hoping to be able to get
by with two.”
Stock said one of the posi-
tions will be 100 percent
funded with revenue already
received. Staff is currently
bringing in more alternative
care dollars to cover the cost.
For the assessor position, the
county is being told it will be
100 percent funded because of
doing a time study for the po-
sition that starts Sept. 1.
Jaunich said to sum it all
up, the county is looking to
hire a total of four new full
time employees in public
health and human services at
a cost of a quarter of one full
time person and maybe less.
*In other business, the
board approved the hire of
Marvin Doeden as a season-
al/temporary Sheriff Deputy
and accepted the resignation
of Deputy Auditor Logan
Lauritsen.
*Approval was given for
the contract renewal with
Minnesota New Country
School and Green Isle Com-
munity School for the provi-
sion of school health services.
*A resolution was approved
allowing minor alteration of
the drainage system affecting
County Ditch 54 which direct-
ly affects County Road 63.
*A joint Sibley/McLeod
County meeting on health in-
surance is set for 11 a.m. July
11 at the McLeod County
solid waste facility in
Hutchinson.
*Century Fence was award-
ed the road maintenance strip-
ing work with a low bid of
$77,375.56.
*In commissioner reports,
Harold Pettis said the joint
powers board involving Sib-
ley and Renville counties will
meet July 17 in Olivia to talk
about cleanout costs for the
ditch on the west side of Sib-
ley County.
*Jim Swanson said Region
9 received the biggest eco-
nomic development grant in
state history of $9.3 million to
help reduce flooding on Hwy.
169 north of St. Peter.

WASHINGTON – The
long battle to passage of a
new five-year federal Farm
Bill came to a halt last Thurs-
day when the U.S. House of
Representatives defeated the
bill 234-195. The U.S. Senate
passed the Farm Bill by a 66-
27 margin on June 10.
The loss in the House was
bitter for 7th District Rep.
Collin Peterson, D-Minn.,
who is the U.S. House Agri-
culture Committee ranking
member.
Pet erson
made the
f ol l owi ng
s t a t e me nt
after the
House of
Representa-
tives failed
to approve a
new farm
bill: “The
farm bill
failed to
pass the
House today
(June 20) because the House
Republicans could not control
the extreme right wing of
their party. From day one I
cautioned my colleagues that
to pass a farm bill we would
have to work together. In-
stead, the House adopted a
partisan amendment process,
playing political games with
extreme policies that have no
chance of becoming law.
“This flies in the face of
nearly four years of biparti-
san work done by the Agri-
culture Committee. I’ll con-
tinue to do everything I can
to get a farm bill passed but I
have a hard time seeing
where we go from here.”
Doug Peterson, Minnesota
Farmers Union president,
said: “Minnesota Farmers
Union is disappointed that the
House failed family farmers
and consumers by not passing
a farm bill.
“I would like to thank Rep-
resentatives Peterson, Kline,
Walz, and Paulsen for their
support of rural Minnesota
and the consumers our hard-
working family farmers feed.
MFU will continue to work
hard for the interests of fami-
ly farmers and push for the
necessary changes in the leg-
islation to get this farm bill
passed in the House.”
Both U.S. Sen. Amy
Klobuchar, D-Minn, and U.S.
Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn,
supported the Senate bill.
Klobuchar said after the
House vote: “Two years in a
row the Senate passed a
strong, long-term Farm Bill
that is critical for producers,
consumers and our entire
economy. I have heard from
countless Minnesota farmers
and ranchers who need the
support and certainty that this
bill provides.
“I know Congressman Pe-
terson worked hard to move
the Farm Bill forward, and
the House needs to come to-
gether and figure out a way to
get this done so our farmers
have the continuity they need
to thrive and succeed.”
Franken stated: “With one
in five Minnesota jobs linked
to the farm economy, the
House’s failure to pass a five-
year Farm Bill is a huge dis-
appointment and a real dis-
service to producers and rural
communities in Minnesota
and across the country.
“We were able to pass a
strongly bipartisan bill in the
Senate, and I hope the House
will revisit this soon so that
we can finally pass this legis-
lation that is so important to
the economic future of Min
Farm Bill

Letter To The Editor
In most public meetings, smaller items such as, approval of min-
utes from previous meetings, current meeting agenda, hiring or fund
raising requests are placed on a consent agenda. These items usually
require little or no discussion and supporting information is provided
to those involved in advance. The items are then voted on in one
lump motion.
Along with such smaller items, Sibley East will put the approval
of bills and personnel contract approvals on the consent agenda with
what appears to be little or no information.
These usually pass with little information given and little if any
discussion.
Over the last months, board member Missy Weber has taken the
time to bring up questions that she had about different items among
the more than $1 million in payments that the Sibley East District
pays each month.
At the last meeting, Weber was informed that if she wanted to dis-
cuss anything on the consent agenda, a motion would have to be
made to remove it from the consent agenda and placed on the regu-
lar agenda. Can you say pain in the you know what?
Said motion was made, passed, items were discussed. Weber then
requested that she would like to see the bills and payments taken off
the consent agenda to be a part of the main meeting agenda.
She said she felt it was important that questions she had and had
discussed previously with Business Manager Jana Thompson be
brought up in the public meeting. She said that as a board member
she represents the taxpayers of Sibley East. If there are things that
she questions, others would probably do the same.
Kudos to Missy Weber, incoming Superintendent Jim Amsden and
the Sibley East School board for making this move. Though it might
seem like a small gesture, it does a lot to eliminate the appearance
that items are being kept from the public.

An elderly husband and wife visit
their doctor when they begin forget-
ting little things. Their doctor tells
them that many people find it useful
to write themselves little notes.
When they get home, the wife
says, “Dear, will you please go to
the kitchen and get me a dish of ice
cream? And maybe write that down
so you won't forget?”
“Nonsense,” says the husband, “I
can remember a dish of ice cream.”
“Well,” says the wife, “I’d also
like some strawberries and whipped
cream on it.”
“My memory’s not all that bad,”
says the husband. “No problem -- a
dish of ice cream with strawberries
and whipped cream. I don't need to
write it down.”
He goes into the kitchen; his wife
hears pots and pans banging around.
The husband finally emerges from
the kitchen and presents his wife
with a plate of bacon and eggs.
She looks at the plate and asks,
“Hey, where's the toast I asked
for?”

A man comes home from work
and sits in his recliner in front of the

“Hey, wife!” he yells. “Gimme a
beer before it starts!” She gives him
his beer. Fifteen minutes pass.
“Hey, wife!” he yells. “Gimme a
beer before it starts!” She gives him
his beer. Five minutes pass.
“Hey, wife!” he yells. “Gimme a
beer before it starts!”
“Hey, you' ve already had two
beers in twenty minutes! Don't you
think that's a lot? I'm not getting you
another!”
“Now it starts,” exclaims the
husband.

accidentally bump into a wall.
They hear a faint moan. They
open the casket and find that the
woman is actually alive.
She lives for 10 more years and
then dies. They have another funeral
for her. At the end of the service, the
pallbearers carry out the casket.
As they are walking, the hus-
band cries out, “Watch out for the
wall!”

works.”

To The Editor,
We would like to thank the people
of the Arlington United Methodist
Church.
We are flooded with gratitude,
precious memories, and forever
friendships as we scan these past-
fast fourteen years with you. God is
so good!
In hindsight, the greatness and
goodness of God are even more
vividly displayed. Thank you to all
who took baby steps of faith toward
Jesus and for doing it together with
us. We encourage you to keep mov-
ing closer to Jesus as you take “the
road less traveled.” Many folks will
choose to navigate easier routes, but
there will always be a gathering of
precious souls “looking to be what
God is looking for”!
Keep searching, keep stepping,
keep the faith. Thank you, Jesus!
Thank you, Church!
On the road again,

Klobuchar: Cut Red Tape to Boost Economy
WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen-
ator Amy Klobuchar, Vice Chair of
the U.S. Congress Joint Economic
Committee (JEC), today called for a
commonsense approach to regula-
tions that protects consumers and the
public interest without stifling inno-
vation and economic growth.
Klobuchar invited the founder of
Minneapolis-based CVRx, a compa-
ny that makes medical devices, to
testify at the Joint Economic Com-
mittee hearing about how federal
regulations have impacted his com-
pany and the larger medical device
community in Minnesota. Minnesota
Congressman Erik Paulsen also at-
tended the hearing.
“From farmers to manufacturers to
medical device companies like Min-
nesota’s CVRx, American businesses
need greater simplicity in the tax
code and a more sensible approach
to regulation,” Klobuchar said. “We
need policies that protect consumers
with clarity and consistency, not end-
less red tape, and I will continue to
work to create a regulatory climate
that promotes growth and innovation
while still maintaining safety and se-
curity standards.”
During the hearing, Klobuchar fo-
cused on the continued need for clear
and consistent policies at the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA), the
primary regulatory agency charged
with approving medical devices
made by Minnesota’s roughly 400
medical device firms. Klobuchar,
who successfully pushed the Envi-
ronmental Protection Agency (EPA)
to curb unnecessary dust regulations
in 2011, also stressed the need to cut
red tape for farmers and ranchers.
Klobuchar has made reducing the
regulatory burden for businesses and
farmers one of her top priorities in
the Senate. She authored bipartisan
legislation, passed into law in 2012,
to help streamline the Food and Drug
Administration's regulation of med-
ical devices without compromising
public safety. As founder and co-
chair of the bipartisan Senate
Tourism Caucus, she has also
worked to cut red tape in the U.S.
tourism industry by cutting back on
wait times for tourist visas.
Klobuchar also introduced the Rep-
resentation for Farmers Act to ensure
that American farmers are represent-
ed in the decision-making process
for environmental policies and regu-
lations that would affect U.S. agri-
culture.
WASHINGTON, D.C.
[06/26/13]—In a speech delivered
from the Senate floor, U.S. Sen. Al
Franken (D-Minn.) urged action to
prevent the rate hike on student loans
slated to take place on July 1. With-
out Congressional action, the interest
rate on subsidized Stafford loans will
jump from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent.
“Countless students at schools
across Minnesota demonstrate
tremendous perseverance and grit in
getting a college education and in
cobbling together the resources to
pay for it,” Sen. Franken said in his
speech. “They are working incredi-
bly hard, and they are still taking on
significant amounts of debt—debt
that will stay with them for a good
portion of their lives. Paying for col-
lege shouldn’t have to be that hard.”
You can read the full text of the
speech here
<http://www.franken.senate.gov/?p=
news&id=2472> and watch the
video here <http://www.franken.sen-
ate.gov/files/video/130626Student-
Loan.mp4> .
Senator Franken has long been a
champion of making the cost of col-
lege more affordable. He is a
cosponsor of the Student Loan Af-
fordability Act—which received ma-
jority support but did not pass in the
Senate earlier this month—that
would have locked in the current
lower interest rate on new subsidized
Stafford loans for two years. He is
also a cosponsor of the Bank on Stu-
dents Loan Fairness Act, introduced
by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.),
which would allow students to pay
the same interest rate on their student
loans that banks pay on the money
they borrow from the Federal Re-
serve's discount window, currently
0.75 percent.
Sen. Franken is also the author of
the Understanding the True Cost of
College Act, which would clarify
what financial aid families will re-
ceive from a school and create stan-
dard terms for the aid offered so that
students can accurately compare of-
fers from different schools. Current-
ly, schools do not use standard defi-
nitions or names for different types
of aid, so students and families often
report having difficulty differentiat-
ing between grant aid, which does
not need to be repaid, and student
loans, which do need to be repaid.
Lastly, he is the author of the Ac-
celerated Learning Act—which was
recently incorporated into the Senate
bill to reform the so-called “No
Child Left Behind” law—that would
help make college affordable by ex-
panding access to accelerated learn-
ing models like AP, IB, dual enroll-
ment, and early college high schools
for low-income students. This would
allow students to get college credit
while in high school and earn their
college degree more quickly.
Franken: Prevent Student Loan Rate Hike
nesota and the entire nation.”
*****
Prior to the vote, Peterson
got up in the House and spoke
on June 18. Here is his
speech:
“Today, the House of Rep-
resentatives finally begins de-
bating a new, five year farm
bill. This process has gone on
long enough and it’s time to
pass a bill.
“The farm bill gives farm-
ers and ranchers the necessary
tools to provide American
consumers with the safest,
most abundant and most af-
fordable food supply in the
world. The bill includes farm,
conservation, trade, nutrition,
credit, rural development, re-
search, forestry, energy and
specialty crop programs.
“With roughly 16 million
American jobs tied to agricul-
ture, the farm bill is a jobs
bill. The rural economy re-
mained strong during our na-
tion’s financial crisis and that
has continued during our re-
covery; this is in large part
due to agriculture. And this is
why the farm bill is so impor-
tant. Failing to pass a new,
five-year farm bill could po-
tentially devastate our rural
economy. Why would we
want to jeopardize the one
part of the economy that has
been, and continues to be,
working?
“I often tell people that the
Agriculture Committee is per-
haps the least partisan of all
the Committees in Congress.
We listen to each other, try to
understand each other and
work together in the best in-
terests of our constituents.
“The bill before us today is
a compromise that reflects
that tradition. It is a compro-
mise between commodities
and regions, and urban and
rural members. I didn’t get
everything I wanted; Chair-
man Lucas didn’t get every-
thing he wanted but that’s
how the legislative process is
supposed to work.
“The bill makes major re-
forms to farm programs. Re-
pealing direct payments saves
taxpayers nearly $40 billion
dollars and will ensure that
farmers won’t get a govern-
ment subsidy for doing noth-
ing. Instead, producers are
given the choice between two
counter-cyclical farm safety
net programs, addressing ei-
ther price declines or revenue
losses, which only support
farmers during difficult times.
The bill also sets new income
requirements so individual
millionaires won’t receive
farm payments and it contin-
ues the no cost sugar program.
“H.R. 1947 also makes sig-
nificant reforms to dairy pro-
grams, the result of more than
four years of work and com-
promise by the dairy industry.
The new dairy safety net will
address the volatility in the
dairy market, helping con-
sumers by making all milk
prices more stable and elimi-
nating the price spikes that are
normal in today’s market-
place.
“The 2008 Farm Bill was
the first farm bill to address
the growing demand for fresh
fruits and vegetables, local
foods and organics. The 2013
Farm Bill continues this in-
vestment by increasing fund-
ing for specialty crop block
grants, providing support for
the Farmers Market and Local
Food Promotion Program, and
authorizing the very first or-
ganic checkoff for research
and promotion.
“We also recognize the
challenges facing many be-
ginning farmers by including
support for outreach and edu-
cation to beginning, socially
disadvantaged and military
veteran farmers and ranchers.
The bill also streamlines and
reforms current conservation
programs, better targeting re-
sources to allow farmers and
ranchers to continue to pre-
serve our valuable natural re-
sources.
“A lot of attention has been
given to the bill’s cuts to nu-
trition programs, more than
$20 billion over ten years.
Personally, I would prefer to
update the income and asset
limits in the SNAP program
so we don’t have these situa-
tions where bordering states
use different eligibility re-
quirements, but the support
wasn’t there for that.
“The cuts to nutrition
spending have received most
of the attention but we were
able to provide additional sup-
port for TEFAP, increase
funding for the Community
Food Projects, with a focus on
low-income communities and
provide more resources to
help USDA’s anti-trafficking
efforts.
“While I think it’s ridicu-
lous to cut hundreds of bil-
lions of dollars, as some
members have called for, it’s
also just not realistic to refuse
to cut one penny from these
programs. I do believe that we
can make some reasonable,
responsible reforms and, at
the end of the day, find some
middle ground that will allow
us to complete our work on
this bill.
“I know we are going to
have a lot of amendments but
it’s my opinion that in order
for the bill to be conferenced,
to be able to get a new bill
signed into law before Sept.
30, we need to keep this a bi-
partisan bill and not stray too
far from what was approved
in Committee. I know that
compromise is rare around
here but it’s what is needed to
finally get a new five-year
farm bill completed.”

county seat to Gaylord is pub-
lished in this issue of the paper.
Over a year ago a committee was
appointed by the citizens of Gay-
lord to ascertain the sentiment
among the voters on this ques-

very favorable. Elec-tions were
held on this same question 25, 18

While fishing at Clearwater
Lake last Sunday, Herb Kruger
landed a bullhead which tops
them all for size. It weighed 2-1/4
pounds and is said to be the
largest ever caught at that lake.
Herb was elated over the catch.
Last Thursday, June 21st, was
the birthday anniversary of
Grandma Caroline Schatz, one of
this community’s most beloved
pioneers. She was 89 years of age
that day, and was able to receive
the congratulations of many rela-
tives and friends who came to
pay her a visit. Grandma Schatz
has made a remarkable recovery
from the effects of a paralytic
stroke last fall, after which she
was in a comatose condition for
many weeks.
Manifesting a true spirit of
progressiveness, the musicians of
Arlington and surrounding com-
munity have organized a band.

lowing officers were elected at
the first meeting of the new Com-
munity Band: John Henschke,
president; Norbert Brau, vice
president; Patty Meyer, secretary
and Rudy Sander, librarian.
