Informational meetings for
the proposed $43.045 million
Sibley East bond referendum
have been set.
The first meeting will be
held at the Green Isle Com-
munity Room at 6:30 p.m.
Wednesday, Oct. 8.
The second meeting will be
held in the large gym at the
Arlington campus at 6:30
p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 15.
The third meeting will be
held in the large gym at the
Gaylord campus at 6:30 p.m.
Wednesday, Oct. 22.
Voters will vote on the pro-
posed bond referendum dur-
ing the General Election on
Tuesday, Nov. 4.
The question on the ballot
shall be, “Shall the school
board of Independent School
District No. 2310 (Sibley
East Public Schools) be au-
thorized to issue general obli-
gation school building bonds
in an amount not to exceed
$43,045,000 to provide funds
for the acquisition and better-
ment of school sites and facil-
ities, including the construc-
tion and equipping of a new
elementary school facility in
Gaylord; the sale or demoli-
tion of the existing school fa-
cility in Gaylord; and the ren-
ovation, repair, remodeling,
equipping and construction of
additions and improvements
to the existing school site and
facility in Arlington to con-
vert that facility into a high
school/middle school facili-
ty?”
The proposed new elemen-
tary school, depending on a
land swap between the Sibley
East Public Schools and City
of Gaylord, would be con-
structed on city-owned prop-
erty located east of the
stormwater pond in Gaylord
between Highways 19 and 5,
Lincoln Avenue East and
County Road 21.
The plan for the proposed
high school/middle school in
Arlington would include a
new three-station gymnasium
on the north end of the build-
ing. The current big gymnasi-
um would be renovated into
an auditorium. The 1936 por-
tion of the building would be
demolished and replaced with
a commons area, classrooms
and kitchen. In addition, the
temporary classrooms would
be removed. Overall, the
project in Arlington would be
about half new and half reno-
vation.
The new PreK-5 elemen-
tary building in Gaylord
would be completed by the
summer of 2016.
The new additions and re-
modeling to the grades 6-12
building in Arlington would
be completed by the summer
of 2017.

Sibley County Public
Works Director Tim Becker
recently provided the Arling-
ton City Council with a con-
struction update on local
projects.
The County Road 166
bridge is nearly complete, ac-
cording to Becker. The only
item remaining is the installa-
tion of the guardrails.
The road construction for
County Road 166 began on
Thursday, Sept. 8, Becker
said.
Beginning next week, the
contractor will continue work
on the sidewalk improvement
project throughout town, ac-
cording to Becker. The
Prairie Line Trail will be
rough graded in along the
south side of County Road
166 heading east to the Ar-
lington Sportsmen’s Park.
According to Becker, the
abutments for the 387th Av-
enue bridge and pedestrian
bridge by the compost site are
in place.
The Prairie Line Trail
pedestrian bridge at the Ar-
lington Sportsmen’s Park will
undergo construction in a
couple of weeks, Becker said.
A pedestrian bridge takes
about eight to 10 weeks for
construction.
The anticipated completion
date for the four bridges and
road project is November of
2014, according to Becker.
In the meantime, the Parks
Committee and city staff con-
tinue to work and improve
the baseball/softball field at
the Arlington Sportsmen’s
Park, according to Arlington
City Administrator Liza Don-
abauer. The City of Arlington
is able to make these im-
provements thanks to recent
grant dollars from the Min-
nesota Valley Electric
Trust/Operational Round Up
and the Twins Fields for Kids
Grant. Improvements to the
park shelter at the Arlington
Sportsmen’s Park are also
budgeted for this year.
A dedication ceremony to
name the baseball/softball
field in memory of Dan
“Buck” Thomes will be held
on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 19.

PeopleService staff plan to
flush hydrants within the City
of Arlington from the first
week of October until the
task is completed, according
to the City of Arlington
newsletter.
Residents and businesses
may experience low water
pressure and/or discolored
water and cloudiness during
the flushing process. The
water is safe to drink and
should clear up in a few days.
Running tap water for a short
time should alleviate the
problem.
PeopleService plans to flush
hydrants in City of Arlington
With the fall season al-
ready here, ideas for getting
rid of leaves begin to surface.
Residents in the City of Ar-
lington should remember that
the burning of leaves within
the city limits is prohibited,
according to the City of Ar-
lington newsletter.
Fires are only permitted
within city limits as long as
they are for recreational pur-
pose. Recreational purposes
shall include only the cook-
ing of food or the providing
of heat and light for outdoor
social gatherings. Only
propane, charcoal bricks, or
wood products may be used
to fuel outdoor fires and shall
be contained in an outdoor
fire place, barbecue equip-
ment, or a concrete-lined fire
pit, sufficient to provide limi-
tation to the spread of the
fire.
City of Arlington reminds
residents of burning leaves

Area highways to be impacted
Motorists on Highway 99 east of St. Peter are advised
that they will encounter a detour as crews work to make
improvements to culverts.
Highway 99 will be closed between Le Sueur County
Road 21 and the Ottawa Road for culvert work and
ravine restoration. Traffic will be detoured to County
Road 21, Highway 22 and Highway 169 for two to
three weeks.
Later in October, Highway 22 will be closed on the
west side of Norseland. Traffic will be detoured to
Nicollet County Road 15, Highway 111 and Highway
22 for about one week.
This project was initially announced to begin as early
as Sept. 24, but recently experienced some delays.
The project will help keep the culverts in proper
working order and extend the life of the road.
MnDOT urges motorists to always drive with caution,
and reminds them to slow down in the work zone and
never enter a roadway that has been blocked with barri-
ers or cones.

Farming in the road right-of-way (ROW)
The Board of Supervisors has observed some instances where
tillage is being done in the ROW. The ROW extends two rods (33
feet) either side of the center of the road and exists in order that
the roads may be properly maintained for the benefit of all who
use them. Roadside mowing in the ROW is permitted, for the
purpose of weed control or making hay, but tillage or crop pro-
duction is not permitted (M.S.160.2715) as it may adversely af-
fect road structure and maintenance. Anyone who damages or al-
ters the ROW will be held responsible for all costs of restoration.
The town board has no desire, or intention, to go around
checking every field with a tape measure, and appreciated the
generally good farming practices of our agricultural producers.
However, those places where excessive encroachment has oc-
curred will need to be dealt with. The township may be marking
or seeding some area’s going into this fall and next spring and re-
quires that these be left undisturbed. Your full cooperation is an-
ticipated and appreciated.
Please feel free to contact any members of the board with
question or attend the regular town meeting held the last Wednes-
day of each month at 7:30 p.m.
Sincerely,
Jessenland Township Board

according to the Minnesota
State Patrol.
A 1999 Dodge was east-
bound on Highway 19 when
the vehicle went into the
ditch and rolled multiple
times, according to the report.
Brendan L. Kroehler, 20,

ceased, the report said.
Joshua J. Krueger, 20, Hen-
derson, suffered non-life

The first year of a major re-
construction on Highways 5,
19 and 22 in Gaylord is wrap-
ping up and the detours are
expected to be removed late
on Monday, Oct. 6, weather
permitting, according to the
Minnesota Department of
Transportation.
Work completed this year
included reconstruction of a
section of Highway 19 and 22
extending from Sibley Av-
enue to Gaylord’s north city
limits. Utilities have been
updated, sidewalks are acces-
sible to disabled and a new
smoother and safer roadway
is in place.
In 2015 the project centers
on the business section in-
cluding Highway 5 and High-
way 22 to the south. In addi-
tion to utilities, sidewalks and
roadway, the project includes
new lighting, benches, bike
racks and planters.
Work on the project in-
cludes grading, paving, in-
stalling utilities, lighting,
landscaping, replacing side-
walk and improving pedestri-
an accessibility on Highways
5, 19 and 22 in the city of
Gaylord.
Detour maps, background
information and weekly up-
dates will continue to be post-
ed on Gaylord’s city website
at exploregaylord.org/.
Wm. Mueller & Sons of
Hamburg has been awarded
the contract for $10,167,451.

The Minnesota Department
of Natural Resources urges
motorists to be especially
alert this autumn to avoid ve-
hicle/deer accidents.
“Fall is an extremely active
time for wildlife, especially
deer,” said Col. Ken Soring,
DNR enforcement director.
“Drivers need to remain alert
and drive with particular cau-
tion this time of year.”
In the fall, deer population
numbers are at a peak. Con-
sequently, the potential for
drivers to encounter them on
the roadways is greatly in-
creased. In addition, autumn
is the breeding season for
white-tailed deer and repro-
ductive urges cause the ani-
mals to become increasingly
mobile throughout October
and November.
“When you see deer along
the roadside, reduce your
speed and be wary of any
sudden movement,” said Sor-
ing. “If a deer crosses the
road, others may follow in its
path.”
While deer may be seen
crossing roadways at any
time of day, they are most ac-
tive at dawn and dusk. These
are the same hours most peo-
ple are traveling to and from
work. Drivers can avoid hit-
ting deer by slowing down
during these hours and being
particularly alert in areas
where deer typically cross.
DNR urges motorists to be alert for deer this fall
Because of vandalism,
bathrooms in the green shel-
ter at the Gaylord City Park
are closed until further notice,
according to an article in the
Gaylord Hub.
On Thursday evening,
Sept. 18, the green shelter
was vandalized again. Ac-
cording to Gaylord City Ad-
ministrator Kevin McCann,
this time toilets were clogged,
and the toilet paper dispenser
was ripped down. Garbage
was also dumped out.

Opinions
Vote on Sibley East
building bond referendum
is only one month away
Our View: Issue has started to stir
up letters to the editor
Superintendent’s Note Pad
Letters To The Editor
The proposed Sibley East building bond referendum has started
to prompt readers from both sides of the issue to write letters to the
editor in this week’s edition of the Arlington Enterprise. Addition-
al letters are sure to follow before the General Election on Tues-
day, Nov. 4.
The goal of this newspaper is to give everyone on both sides of
the issue an opportunity to comment on the proposed Sibley East
building bond referendum.
The Arlington Enterprise, with this thought in mind, will enforce
its policy of a maximum of 500 words for letters to the editor.
While some newspapers limit a letter to 100 to 300 words, this
newspaper has found that too restrictive. The Arlington Enterprise
does not want to discourage letters, but believes writers can make
their points on the proposed Sibley East building bond referendum
and any other topic in less than 500 words.
Study after study indicates that people are more likely to read
shorter, more precise letters to the editor in their newspapers any-
way. Longer letters or columns tend to be skipped over if time is
not available.
The deadline for letters to the editor will remain at 4 p.m. every
Tuesday. Writers must sign their letter and provide contact infor-
mation.
Letters For The Final Week
The Arlington Enterprise would like to remind its readers about
letters to the editor the week prior to the General Election on Nov.
4.
This newspaper, during the final week, will not publish any let-
ters that bring up new ideas on the proposed Sibley East building
bond referendum. This newspaper will only print letters that re-
spond to specific statements that have already been made in previ-
ous letters or opinion columns.
People who wish to write a letter must state the name of the
writer, the date of publication that the letter or opinion column ap-
peared and specifically point out the statement and which para-
graph it appeared.

The first day he paints four miles.
“Great,” the supervisor thinks. The

but the supervisor thinks, “Well,
that’s good enough.” The third day
the man paints one mile.
“What’s the problem?” his boss

SE building bond referendum weekly question
Editor’s Note: Sibley East Super-
intendent Jim Amsden will use his
Superintendent’s Note Pad column
to answer one to two commonly
asked questions each week about the
proposed building bond referendum
until voters go to the polls on Tues-
day, Nov. 4.
By Jim Amsden
Sibley East Superintendent
Week Six: What are the Benefits
of Quality Schools to Students and
District Residents?
Over the last month, I have fo-
cused on how the Facilities Task
Force reached the recommendation
to build a new PreK-5 facility in
Gaylord and add new additions and
remodel the Arlington site to accom-
modate grades 6-12. This week I
would like to focus on the immedi-
ate benefit to students and the long
term benefits to all district residents.
At the PreK level, successful early
childhood programs have proven to
increase student achievement and
increase social and emotional func-
tioning, all while improving verbal,
intellectual, and physical develop-
ment. Sibley East has programming
preparing students for kindergarten
that is rated 4 out of 4 stars by Min-
nesota’s Parent Aware rating system.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of
programming space, we are turning
families away from this opportunity
because we do not have the physical
space to add sections. Additional
programs can be developed within
these new spaces to provide after-
school care and learning opportuni-
ties that enhance and strengthen our
current Sibley East ECFE and Com-
munity Education programs.
Sibley East K-12 students and
their families will see immediate
benefits from new and updated facil-
ities. The primary benefits students
will encounter are learning in spaces
that (1) are sized to current Min-
nesota Department of Education
Guidelines, (2) offer flexible learn-
ing environments, and (3) have im-
proved air handling systems that
maintain consistent temperatures
while reducing moisture and carbon
dioxide levels within the classroom.
Additionally, necessary spaces are
added for students to work with
learning specialists in settings that
allow for focused teaching and
learning through the elimination of
physical and environmental disrup-
tions. Science labs, technical educa-
tion spaces, and fine arts spaces are
improved to increase educational
opportunities in national and state
initiatives such as STEAM (science,
technology, engineering, arts, and
math). A recent study by the Uni-
versity of Salford (Manchester, UK)
suggests that classroom environment
can affect a child’s academic
progress over a year by as much as
25%.
For district residents who do not
have children or grandchildren in
school, it is important to understand
that research shows that a strong
school system is vital in maintaining
our communities. In today’s age,
with increased mobility and school
choice (open enrollment), people
will consider schools very carefully
when considering where to live and
work. In a survey conducted by the
National Association of Realtors
(2002), the quality of public schools,
along with the safety of the neigh-
borhoods, were the two most impor-
tant factors considered in where
people chose to live. Having a
school system with strong academic
programming and facilities that are
up to date and well maintained helps
attract potential business and resi-
dent development. This in turn
maintains or increases the communi-
ty population base that creates de-
mand for the products and services
produced/sold by our local business-
es. Thomas Lyson’s study in the
Journal of Research in Rural Educa-
tion, “What Does a School Mean to
a Community?” (2002) concludes
that rural towns with local public
schools are often more economically
advanced. The evidence suggests
that the quality of schools influences
business site selection and where
people who work in those business-
es choose to live.
To The Editor,
I support education. I support Sib-
ley East. But– we cannot afford to
borrow $43 million.
I have served on three Sibley East
Facilities committees (1997, 2000,
2011). Before the $40 million bond
referendum in 2011, I wrote several
letters to the editor. My financial
analysis concluded that taxpayers
could not afford $40 million. Two-
thirds of the votes said “NO to $40
million” (1,919 to 896). No one has
proven my 2011 analysis, calcula-
tions, and conclusions to be wrong.
Sibley East’s existing facilities are
older and urgently need deferred
maintenance, but what has changed
financially since 2011?
The facts supporting my 2011
conclusion remain valid. $40 million
was unaffordable in 2011. $43 mil-
lion is unaffordable in 2014.
Sibley East states that it will only
cost $116 per year for a homeowner
in an $80,000 house to pay for the
$43 million facility.
This is an incomplete argument
and a misleading statement.
The League of Minnesota Cities
website provides a tool to compare
the total property taxes (county, city,
and school district) of 853 cities in
Minnesota. I used this tool to com-
pare the 2014 total property tax bur-
den on $80,000 homeowners in Ar-
lington, Gaylord, and Green Isle.
IF the proposed bond issue passes,
Green Isle homeowners will become
one of the 15 most heavily taxed
cities in the state. Arlington home-
owners will move into the top 25%
of taxpayers.
Gaylord homeowners will move
to one of the 10 highest taxed com-
munities in Minnesota. Why? Be-
cause the City of Gaylord has al-
ready issued $2.73 million in debt in
2014 and will likely issue over $4
million in debt to fund MNDOT’s
2015 downtown street improve-
ments and a 2016 new water tower.
With this new city and school dis-
trict debt, a Gaylord homeowner in
an $80,000 house could see their
2014 property taxes increase from
$1,077 to between $1, 500 and
$1,700 by 2017.
We must invest significant tax-
payer dollars to upgrade Sibley
East’s facilities. I support that up-
grade. But there is a less expensive
solution and a more affordable op-
tion for renovating school buildings.
I’ll share my thoughts in a future let-
ter. In the meantime, consider these
questions.
What can the taxpayers afford? Is
there a less expensive way to solve
this problem?
Please vote AGAINST the No-
vember 4 referendum, but be pre-
pared to vote FOR a smaller, more
realistic future referendum. We need
to do something, but $43 million is
not affordable.

Obituary
Mildred B. (Milly) Felm-
lee, age 80, of Le Sueur, died
at Abbott-Northwestern Hos-
pital in Minneapolis sur-
rounded by her family on Sat-
urday, Sept. 27.
Funeral services were held
at Grace Evangelical Luther-
an Church in LeSueur at 11
a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 1.

and Cora (Timm) Goebel in
Arlington on Sept. 2, 1934.
She graduated from the Ar-
lington High School in 1952
and worked in Minneapolis
for several years. She mar-
ried Dwaine Felmlee at St.
Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran
Church in Arlington on Sept.
3, 1955. They made their

joyed playing cards, snow-
mobiling, special times with
family and grandchildren and
an occasional trip to the casi-
no.

To The Editor,
Even if I am a grandma and
a senior citizen, I was con-
cerned about the remodeling
and renovation of our school
coming up on the referendum
in November. I was especial-
ly concerned about the park-
ing problem all of us around
the school have put up with
for many years. I was curious
what solution, if any, was to
be done to deal with that. So I
wrote a letter to Jim Amsden,
our superintendent, about my
concern. The day he got my
letter he called and said he
would like to come over and
show me the layout and plans
for parking and the renovated
building. When he showed
me the plan, I was impressed.
Especially that there would
be 139 parking spaces at the
north end of school, the area
that is now the playground.
Grades 6-12 don’t need a re-
cess area. The school en-
trance will also be on the
north end where the new gym
will be built.
Parking spaces will also be
added to the south side of the
school where some of the
1937 school building will be
removed. This will make it
easier for grandparents and
handicapped to attend pro-
grams, rather than having to
walk blocks to get to school
for events in the auditorium
when there is no place close
to school to park.
I was impressed, my ques-
tions were answered, and
what a relief it would be to
have the parking problem re-
solved.
So I just want to say to
you, if you have any ques-
tions about the plans for the
school, call our superintend-
ent or attend meetings com-
ing up in October and get de-
tails, form your own opinion
about what is planned. The
decision is yours. Be in-
formed about what is going
on and get out there and vote.
Lorraine Bliss
Arlington
Resident impressed with renovated school plans
To The Editor,
When will our school ad-
ministrators and school board
quit trying to wreak financial
ruin on Sibley East taxpay-
ers?
They must realize that our
district is no longer made up
of 160-acre farms with four
to six kids, but new modern
corporate farms with one or
two kids?
When will they open their
eyes and acknowledge that
the birth rate has been declin-
ing since 2008 because of the
economy?
The district is barely stable
or even in a possible decline.
This shows in the empty busi-
nesses and houses in our dis-
trict.
You might have seen an ad-
vertisement for www. k-
12.org for home schooling on
your computer. MacPhail
School of Music teaches
music over the computer all
over the state. School districts
and buildings could be a
thing of the past in the very
near future.
Now if our schools are as
bad physically that we need
one, how is it so? Is it be-
cause our school board has
not spent the monies needed
for upkeep in the past.
Why were we spending
hundreds of thousands for
sports facilities but very little
on school buildings and
roofs?
Now that the district prop-
erties are beyond repairs then
maybe we should dissolve
Sibley East as did McLeod
West.
Remember a few years
back, a new modern bus
garage was the answer to our
problems. Rumors ran wild
on that issue. A new garage in
Gaylord. Gaylord would
leave Sibley East and join G-
F-W. Will this happen if we
build a new elementary
school in Gaylord?” What is
to prevent this from happen-
ing?
Remodeling the old school
building would force the tax-
payers to pick up the addi-
tional costs if the bond refer-
endum passes.
I have recently heard an-
other rumor regarding defer-
ring the taxes on the new
building to the heirs after the
property is sold upon the
death of the owner. Is this a
good idea? It’s very possible
they don’t even live in the
district. This could be very
costly.
So in closing, on Nov. 4, I
urge my fellow voters to vote
no on this $43 million ques-
tion.

Objects along roadways
pose hazards for drivers and
maintenance crews, accord-
ing to the Minnesota Depart-
ment of Transportation. Min-
nesota Statutes, section
160.2715 says in part that it is
unlawful to paint, print,
place, or affix any object
within the limits of any state
highway.
Specific laws for
advertising, other signs
The Minnesota Outdoor
Advertising Control Act
(Minnesota Statutes, section
173.15) prohibits advertising
devices:
• on private land without
the consent of the owner or
occupant;
• on public utility poles;
• on trees or shrubs; and
• by painting or drawing on
rocks or natural features.
The state law that prohibits
the placement of signs in the
highway right of way applies
to all state, county, city and
township roads and high-
ways.
The Federal Highway Ad-
ministration office in Min-
nesota monitors Minnesota's
compliance with federal high-
way beautification laws. State
transportation employees are
responsible for administering
these laws on state highways
and must remove signs that
violate the laws. County, city,
and township employees ad-
minister these laws on their
roads.
Can I get my sign back?
Illegal signs will be re-
moved. MnDOT is responsi-
ble for state highways, and
county, city, and township
employees are responsible for
their roads. Local municipali-
ties also have their own regu-
lations, which may differ
from city to city and county
to county. Contact your local
MnDOT office for help when
signs are being placed and
specific highway right of way
cannot be clearly identified.
When improperly placed
signs are removed by depart-
ment employees, every effort
will be made to temporarily
store the sign and to notify
the owner where the signs
can be retrieved.
Why do laws regulate the placement
of objects in the highway right of way?

rates for the 2014-2015 open
enrollment period.
The Department of Com-
merce announced Wednesday
that rates would increase for a
majority of consumers on
MNsure in all parts of the
state, many by double-digit
percentages. The lowest-cost
option for many men and
women using Minnesota' s
Obamacare exchange is set to
increase by more than 20 per-
cent next year alone.
“Minnesota families are
paying the price for the failed
leadership of Governor Day-
ton and Democrats in bring-
ing Obamacare to Minneso-
ta,” Gruenhagen said. “In-
stead of the cost savings that
were promised by the cre-
ators of MNsure, families are
paying more, have fewer
choices, and are stuck with
the consequences. Between
spending $160 million on a
website that still doesn’t
work, families losing plans
they liked, and taxpayer-
funded bonuses for MNsure
executives, it' s clear Min-
nesotans deserve better than
the broken promises sold to
them by Democrats.”
Since the implementation
of Obamacare began last
year, insurance premium
costs are rising faster than
ever. According to the Com-
monwealth Fund, individual
market insurance premiums
from 2003-2010 rose a total
of 35 percent in Minnesota.
In the first full year of Oba-
macare in Minnesota, the
same rates rose 47 percent for
Minnesotans according to the
Manhattan Institute. For
2014-2015, one of the largest
insurers remaining on MN-
sure is seeing a 17 percent
average increase for 2015,
meaning higher costs for
thousands of Minnesotans.

“After they rebuilt and won
the conference in 2011 they
fell off for similar reasons
and had to play a lot of
young players for a couple of
years. Now they are back
and have a good shot in the
playoffs. Our kids understand
this is a process and if we
continue to row the boat we
will get back on top.”

There was 156 participants
for the season championship
races at the Arlington Race-
way on Saturday, Sept. 27.
The following is a list of
results from that event, ac-
cording to Arlington Race-
way owners Bob and Sue
Allen.
Mike Christensen, Hutchin-
son, took the lead and win
from Matt Olson, Morton, in
the Eckblad Trucking IMCA
Hobby feature. Olson led the
first five laps, but Christensen
who started behind Olson
was able to challenge him by
the second lap and maintain
the lead to win the race. Rod
Manthey, Norwood, took
third. Kevin Latour, Le
Sueur, won his first track
championship in this class.
Alan Lahr, Nicollet, started
the Coors Light IMCA Sport
Compact feature in the lead,
but sustained damage and
headed to the pit area. Kyren
Porter, Madison Lake, then
took over the lead, but a
restart occurred and Eric Lad-
ner, Arlington, got by Porter.
She held on for second and
Brock St. John, Arlington,
took third place. Nate Coop-
man won the track champi-
onship.
Dan Mackenthun, Ham-
burg, did double duty as he
won the Liberty Station Out-
law feature ahead of Chris
Plamann, Hutchinson. Kevin
Latour, Le Sueur, led the first
five laps until Mackenthun
joined him in the front and
slid by him to take the lead
and win. Plamann took sec-
ond while Kyle Roepke, Ar-
lington, placed third. Liberty
Station also sponsored a
hardcharger award, Bill
Braunworth, Victoria, won
the award. Brian Loscheider
picked up an extra $50 for his
11th place finish. Mori
Oestreich, Henderson, won
the track championship.
The Unhinged Pizza IMCA
Sport Modified feature was
cut short due to time. John
(Fuzzy) Albrecht, Glencoe,
led the entire race and picked
up his first feature of the year.
Tim Bergerson, Mankato,
battled with Jeremy Brown,
Elko, for second place and
got by him with one lap to
go, but had to settle for sec-
ond. Brown took third while
Travis Schurmann, Howard
Lake, took fourth place. Matt
Looft, Swea City, Iowa, won
the track championship.
Clint Benson, Papilion,
Neb., made the trip worth his
while once again as he won
the 95.7 IMCA Sprint feature.
There were three different
leaders with Dustin Sargent,
Cleveland, led the first four
laps and then Brett Allen,
Gaylord, took over for the
next four laps. Benson
worked through the field and
by the ninth lap he had the
lead. Mike Stien, Ceylon, got
around Allen in the fourth
turn and took second, but was
not able to catch Benson.
Stien took second and Bran-
don Allen, St. Peter, got by
Brett Allen for third place.
Mike Stien won the track
championship.
Dan Mackenthun won the
track championship in the
B&B Racing Chassis IMCA
Stock car class and took
home the trophy for the fea-
ture race. There was quite a
race between the cars of Jeff
McCollum, Mankato, and
Matt Schauer, Arlington, for
the lead, but Mackenthun
came out the victor. Schauer
took second and McCollum
took third.
There was only two points
difference going into the MN
93 IMCA Modified feature
for the night between Chad
Porter, Madison Lake, and
Jerry Wren, Howard Lake,
making for an exciting race.
Porter led the race for the first
16 laps of the 20-lap race. On
lap 17 he fell off the pace as
his drive shaft broke sending
him into the pit area. That
gave the lead to Dan Menk,
Franklin, with Trent
Loverude, New Ulm, on his
tail. Menk won the race and
Loverude was able to hold off
Curt Lund, Redwood Falls,
and took second. Lund took
third while Wren taking 4th
and winning the track cham-
pionship.

Motorists traveling on
Minnesota highways this fall
need to be aware of large
farm equipment transporting
crops to markets, grain eleva-
tors and processing plants,
according to the Minnesota
Department of Transporta-
tion.
“Harvest season is in full
swing and farmers in every
corner of the state are out
using the highways,” said Sue
Groth, state traffic engineer.
“Motorists need to be pre-
pared to encounter slow-mov-
ing farm vehicles, especially
on rural, two-lane roads.”
Farm equipment is large
and heavy, making it hard for
operators to accelerate, slow
down and stop. The machines
also make wide turns and
sometimes cross over the
center line. In addition, farm
vehicles can create large
blind spots, making it diffi-
cult for operators to see ap-
proaching vehicles. All of
these factors can cause seri-
ous crashes.
During 2011-2013, 392
traffic crashes took place on
Minnesota roads involving at
least one farm vehicle, result-
ing in 14 fatalities and 210
injuries. Of the 14 fatalities,
nine were farm vehicle riders;
of the 210 injuries, 54 were
farm vehicle riders.
“The biggest factors con-
tributing to farm
equipment/vehicle crashes
are inattention, speeding and
unsafe passing,” Groth said.
“When approaching farm
equipment, motorists should
always slow down and use
extreme caution.”
Motorists should:
• Watch for debris dropped
by trucks hauling sugar beets
and other crops. It is safer to
brake or drive through debris
than to veer into oncoming
cars or off the road.
• Wait for a safe place to
pass.
• Wear seatbelts.
• Drive with headlights on
at all times.
Farm equipment operators
should:
• Use lights and flashers to
make equipment more visi-
ble.
• Use slow-moving vehicle
emblems on equipment trav-
eling less than 30 mph.
• Consider using a follow
vehicle when moving equip-
ment, especially at night.
MnDOT asks motorists, farm equipment operators
to safely share the road during the harvest season

Former Arlington resident
Rev. Evelyn Dahlke has pub-
lished her second book, Angel
Wings: Poems of Faith from
the Journey.
This book contains poetry
written over the course of the
past 20 years -- through the
darkness of depression, di-
vorce, seminary study, con-
gregational ministry, and be-
yond. Poems are both
rhyming and free-form and
consist of prayers, medita-
tions, and observations. This
book closely follows part of
the events of her first book,
Butterfly Song, a memoir, but
also moves beyond it to the
present time.
Rev. Dahlke grew up in
rural Le Sueur and graduated
from the Arlington-Green Isle
High School. She obtained
her Bachelor of Arts Degree
from the University of Min-
nesota, Morris, and her Mas-
ter of Divinity Degree from
Luther Seminary, St. Paul.
Prior to attending seminary,
she worked as a teacher/pro-
gram coordinator at the Sib-
ley County Developmental
Achievement Center in Ar-
lington. After seminary she
served Holy Trinity Lutheran
Church, St. Paul; Emanuel
Lutheran Church and North-
east Community Lutheran
Church, Northeast Minneapo-
lis; and Faith Lutheran
Church, Wabasha. She cur-
rently does pastoral/spiritual
care and counseling along
with some worship leadership
and preaching as well as con-
tinues to write and help with
her grandchildren.

History
95 Years Ago
October 2, 1919
Louis Kill, Editor
The 50th annual Sibley Coun-
ty Fair, which came to a close
last week Wednesday, surpassed
any fair or celebration ever held
at Arlington in all of its history.
It was not only the biggest in
point of attendance, exhibits and
other things which constitute a
big fair, but the entertainment
met with the whole hearted ap-
proval of every visitor. An air-
plane stunt show thrilled the
crowd on several occasions. The
ball games were the best ever
staged at our fair. No one could
find fault with the horse races.
Wednesday was home coming
day in honor of the soldier boys
who fought in the world war.
The bowery provided a wonder-
ful attraction for the young peo-
ple and the New Germany or-
chestra furnished the music.
The Arlington Greys played
three games of baseball during
the past week, winning two and
losing one.
School news: Pipings and fix-
tures have been put into the do-
mestic science room to have hot
and cold water in the sink. Ar-
lington took first place in the
fair school exhibits. On October
10th the High School and
Grades will give a carnival.

A business deal was consum-
mated this week through which
Ed Gerber disposed of the
restaurant business in the Burke
building to Mr. R. W. Roth of
Madison, Minn. The latter took
immediate possession.
According to information
given us by Co. Commissioner
Ed. Wolff, the “missing link” to
connect the so called Jessenland
road with T. H. No. 5 across the
Schwirtz farm will be built this
fall. The job will be done by the
Boelter grading outfit.
John Joyce of Jessenland,
brother of Mrs. M. l. Madden of
this place, left last week for Bel-
gium, where he will complete
his education for the priesthood.
He was one of the few young
men chosen each year to study
abroad.

Two of Arlington’s most pro-
gressive businessmen will see
their dreams come true next Fri-
day, October 2. Leonard and
Norbert Brau will open their
spanking new automotive center
on the corner of Main and High-
way Five. This is truly one of
the finest steps taken by Arling-
ton businessmen to improve
their service to customers who
shop this community in quite
some time.
Mr. and Mrs. Wm Lange of
Green Isle will celebrate their
60th wedding anniversary at the
Plato Community Hall Sunday,
October 4 with and open house
from 2 to 5 p.m. and from 7 to 9
p.m.
Arlington’s newest organiza-
tion for young men in the com-
munity is also the fastest grow-
ing club in town. The Apollos
Car Club organized about six
months ago with six boys who
decided it would be a nice thing
to have a car club that special-
izes in one thing, youths and
cars. During this time the mem-
bership has swollen to 13 and
more prospects are being con-
sidered.

Establish a home
fire safety plan
Keeping family members safe from fire involves establishing a fire safety plan.
People rely on fire and smoke detectors to help keep them safe in their
homes. Though fire and smoke alarms are effective, a firm fire safety
plan that will keep everyone calm should a fire occur could make the dif-
ference between life and death.
The U.S. Fire Administration says that more than 3,500 Americans die
each year in fires, while roughly 18,300 more men, women and children
are injured each year. Cooking accounts for the greatest percentage of
residential fires, followed by arson. Dryer vent fires are also a big con-
cern. FEMA says that smoke, rather than the fire’s flames, is responsible
for 75 percent of all deaths by fire.
In addition to physical injury and material damage, fires can cause a
host of problems. Psychological distress, monetary damages and loss of
pets may come with fires. Loss of irreplaceable personal items is also a
concern. Although fires can be devastating, they’re also highly preventa-
ble, and smoke alarms and a home fire safety plan are two precautionary
measures everyone should take.
Creating an evacuation plan doesn’t have to be complicated. Such a
plan can be established in a few minutes and then reinforced through
practice every so often to keep everyone fresh on what to do.
• Begin by assessing the layout of the home. Figure out the two best
exits from the home.
• If your home doesn’t have two doors, invest in a fire ladder so that
one of the windows can be a point of exit.
• Know how to gain access to the exits, including the best path to take
to avoid injury. It’s a good idea to consider a few different scenarios. A
kitchen adjacent to the upstairs staircase may become engulfed in flames
and make exit by way of staircase impossible. Just because you have
doors to the outside doesn’t mean they’ll present the best type of exit.
• Sketch out the layout of the home and the escape plan. Smoke can
make it difficult to know up from down. Be sure everyone can reach the
exits even if vision is obstructed. Try it with your eyes closed.
• Check fire alarms routinely, and change batteries at least every year.
• Make sure windows can be easily opened if they are an exit point.
• Make note of who will be helping children or the elderly out of the
home.
• Establish a place where the family will meet outdoors. This area
should be far enough away from the home so that everyone will be safe
from smoke, flames and falling debris. Fires may ignite fuel explosions,
so be sure the meeting spot is a good deal away.
• Children should be instructed to run to the meeting spot immediately
without waiting behind for anyone to catch up. No one should reenter the
home after arriving at the meeting spot.
• Do a few practice runs so that everyone will be accustomed to getting
out quickly.
• While in most cases it is better to escape and let the fire department
extinguish a fire, in the event of a small fire, occupants may be able to
stanch it with a personal fire extinguisher. Follow the acronym PASS to
properly put out the fire.
– PULL the pin in the extinguisher.
– AIM the nozzle or hose at the base of the flames.
– SQUEEZE the trigger.
– SWEEP the foam across the fire base; do not just aim in one
place.
Fire safety is very important. In conjunction with smoke alarms, a
fire safety plan can help everyone get out alive.
