Reply to the Fauske Sisters & Art & Rose’s pictures
From Marlys Hiatt (71): Dunseith, ND
It’s great to see those wonderful smiles Art and Rose have and the Fauske
sisters are some good looking ladies, but that of course would be pretty
natural since their mother is gorgeous.
Marlys: With Eleanor Fauske, the girls mother, being a Hiatt and first cousin to your dad, you guys are related too. I so very much agree, 100%, with your whole statement. Gary
Governor’s Choir Plaque
Provided by Mary Ann Hagen: Bottineau, ND
Folks,
Mary Ann Hagen was cleaning our her attic and came across this Governor’s Choir plaque of Art’s and his school picture too. Did they have plaque’s made for all the choir members? If so, folks, please share. It would be fun to see how many we can collect for an album.
The picture pasted below is the only copy I have of the Governor’s Band. Do any of you have a shaper picture? This one, enlarged, gets kind of fuzzy.

CIRCLE FLIES
A farmer hurrying home on a lonely country road suddenly heard a siren. He looked in his rear view mirror of his pick up and saw the red lights of a patrol car. Then he glanced at his speedometer and saw he was traveling at about 4 miles above the speed limit. He sighed and pulled his old pickup onto the shoulder. The patrolman pulled up directly behind the pickup and a young officer complete with a new and crisp uniform, with dark sun glasses got out. He stopped at the drivers side of the pick up and remarked that, “whats your hurry old timer”? The farmer explained that he was hurrying home to do his chores and didn’t realize that he was speeding. The patrolman told the farmer that he was speeding and it would be necessary to give him a speeding ticket, and asked the farmer for his driver’s license. The farmer pulled out his license, and handed it to the officer who he noted had a triumphant grin on his face.
The officer opened his book and proceeded to lay it on the hood of the farmer’s truck, and soon began swatting at flies as he wrote out the ticket.The farmer heard the officer curse at the flies, and he leaned out of his truck window and remarked “circle flies”. The officer turned angrily and snarled at the farmer, “What the hell are circle flies”?The farmer replied that circle flies were usually found circling at a horse’s rear end.The officer roared backend asked the farmer. “Are you calling me a horses Ass.The farmer hurriedly told the officer that that was not the case and that he had far too much respect for the law to imply that.The officer turned to his ticket, still swatting at the flies, and handed the ticket to the farmer along with license. The farmer thanked him and then remarked, “Pretty hard to fool those flies though.
