The week will highlight what happens when a missing persons report is filed, the work of police investigators, search and rescue volunteers, and various support services like police-based Victim Services.

Each day throughout the week, a different as- pect of the the investigation process will be fea- tured.

Last year, the Saskatchewan Provincial Partner- ship Committee for Missing Persons recognized the importance of providing families with a way to acknowledge their loved ones and decided to plant an oak tree, which in turn was named the Saskatchewan Missing Persons Oak Tree. The PPCMP is a collaboration of government, police, community-based organizations and First Nations and Metis representatives which work to improve the response to missing persons cases in Saskatchewan. The oak tree was chosen because of its longev- ity and symbolism of strength, courage and en- durance. The tree has been planted in Wascana Park, Regina, and continues to grow. The tree had an official dedication last September. Family members in attendance at the ceremony placed written notes to their loved ones at the base of the tree as well as took turns adding a shovel of dirt as they planted it. At the ceremony, excerpts from "The Sacred Tree" by Judi Bopp were shared. The sacred tree was dedicated as follows. “For all the people of the earth, the Creator has planted a Sacred Tree under which they all may gather, and there find healing, power, wis- dom and security. The roots of this tree spread deep into the body of Mother Earth. Its branches reach up- ward like hands praying to Father Sky. The fruits of this tree are the good things the Creator has given to the people: teachings that show the path to love, compassion, generosity, patience, wis- dom, justice, courage, respect, humility and many other wonderful gifts.” Currently plans are being made to develop the area to include a fully finished park-like sur- rounding. This will include brick paths and a seating area where people can spend time honouring their missing loved ones. The PPCMP's ultimate goal is to “work to- wards a future that ensures that when people go missing, there is a full response that mobilizes necessary participants and that recognizes the equal value in every life.” Since current statistics have been documented in Saskatchewan, it is recorded that 123 people have gone missing in Saskatchewan. A total of eight human remains are unidentified. For any more information regarding Saskatchewan’s Missing Persons, visit the website at www.sacp.ca/misssing. The website also con- tains information regarding last year,s Missing Per- sons Week, which includes statistics, facts and videos pertaining to all areas of Missing Persons cases such as as parental abductions and run-aways.

Weyburn Fiddle Contest results

On April 25, the Weyburn Police Service responded toan urgent call for assistance at a local bar. A number ofindividuals were reported to be fighting. The incident wasover on police arrival and is still under investigation.

Also on April 25, the Weyburn PS received a report froma concerned citizen regarding a possible impaired driver.The vehicle and 25 year-old male driver were located andthe driver was arrested and charged for impaired driving.He also had an outstanding warrant which was executed.

Further on April 25, the Weyburn PS received a call re-garding a vehicle that appeared to have been abandonedand which had significant damage to it. As a result of theinvestigation, a 16 year-old male has been charged with driv-ing at a speed greater than reasonable and safe.

On April 24, the Weyburn Police Service were called toobserve and deal with traffic flow problems being caused bypicketers at the ongoing labour dispute within the publicschool district. We wish to remind all pedestrians that it isunlawful to interfere with other lawful users of the road andviolators could be subject to receiving a ticket.

The Weyburn PS is investigating a report of a sexual as-sault. The victim and suspect are known to each other. Thisis believed to be an isolated incident and police have noongoing public safety concerns. The matter is under investi-gation.

On April 23, Weyburn business was the victim of the theftof a portion of an exterior sign.

On April 22, the Weyburn Police Service received a com-plaint about a potential on-line fraud in relation to itemsbeing offered for sale on a Weyburn area Facebook group.The matter is still under investigation.

Further on April 22, the Weyburn Police Service receiveda report relating to barking dogs. Under the terms of thelocal bylaw, dogs are not to be barking for any reason. Inorder for police to take enforcement action either the doghas to be actively barking when police go to the location, orthe witness needs to be prepared to provide a formal state-ment and go to court if necessary.

We urge people to make certain that the dog they areaccusing of barking is actually the one that is barking. Re-cent complaints and investigations around the city have shownthat due to how sound travels the actual violating dog was attimes many houses away from where the complainant thoughtthe dog was barking.

On April 21, a vehicle was reported to have been ob-served doing donuts on property near the Comp footballfield. As a result of the complaint and subsequent investiga-tion, a 15 year-old male has been charged with mischiefunder the criminal code and will be making a court appear-ance.

The vehiclewas located and a 21 year-old male and 23 year-old malewere found to have been parked and had finished smokingmarihuana. Due to the evidence having literally 'gone up insmoke', no enforcement action was able to be taken.

Teeming hordes and missing hairBy Linda Wegner

Last week I had at least oneof those days when it seemedthat more went wrong thanwent right. Now nothing con-stituted an earth-shatteringevent, there was just an accu-mulation of little things thattriggered a few too many"Aagghh" moments. Even asI scribe this weekly article I'masking myself, "Really Linda,

By Helen WallerI love shoes. All types of shoes. My husband, like most,

does not quite understand the love affair I have with them.Over the years, I have built up quite the fabulous shoe col-lection and it is currently walking its' way over to his side ofthe closet. It has officially become a problem. Taking upspace in someone's side of the closet is sort of like invadingforeign territory unarmed. Sure, you didn't mean any realharm, but nonetheless, you aren't where you are supposedto be.

I figured I had better work my way over there slowly bysneaking in a pair every week or so. I was hoping he wouldn'teven notice. So, what are a few pairs of my shoes snuck inbeside his going to harm? FORECAST

In Matthew 5, Jesus quotes an Old Testament command and refers to it as the secondgreatest command that God has given us: "Love your neighbour as yourself." It's prettyimportant to Jesus and His followers, as this phrase is repeated exactly the same 9 times in theNew Testament.

Have you noticed how loving our neighbours take on a new "flavour" in the Springtime?Over the winter, we don't see each other much, nor do we have many opportunities forgrievances - unless they won't clear off their sidewalk.

But when the weather warms up, suddenly the dogs start barking, kids start playing,lawnmowers start up JUST when you are trying to sleep in. What makes it even harder tolove our neighbours is that usually we don't have much in common with them, other thanlocation. I have good neighbours, but we're all at different stages of life. My immediateneighbours don't have teenagers, don't go to the same church, have different schedules thanwe do, and different recreational habits as well. How exactly am I supposed to love peoplethat I have so little in common with? What does it mean to love them "as myself" if they don'tlike the same things I like?

I would suggest that it starts by not seeing them as enemies. That's kind of basic, but oftenoverlooked. If something irritates me about them, or they "cross a line", it always helps if Istart by assuming that their intent is NOT to destroy my happiness!

A next step would be to practice forgiveness. The Lord's Prayer says it pretty clearly:"Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." Let's work throughneighbourly conflicts with an attitude of forgiveness in our hearts.

Jesus also gives us good advice for how to begin resolving conflicts. What about simplyTALKING to our neighbours? "If your brother or sister sins against you, go and point outtheir fault, just between the two of you." Do we really need to call the police over everyannoyance? Maybe if we begin the conversation by asking nicely, many of our disputes couldbe avoided.

And if everything goes south, and they turn out to actually be our enemies? Jesus has someadvice for us there too: "But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecuteyou…"

I love living in Weyburn. I am grateful for my neighbours. We all work hard to keep thingsfriendly and fair between us. But even if it gets hard, I have some good steps I can take towork things through.

Think about it,Pastor Jay Mowchenko, Weyburn Free Methodist Church

Love your neighbour

nothing was that serious. Arethose times really worth writ-ing about?" I figure they arefor two reasons. First be-cause I'm not the only onewho finds themselves in thatpredicament at times butmore importantly, because itis my and your reaction thatreally counts.

My thoughts led me to aversion of a very old question:How many [insert group]does it take to screw in a lightbulb? As a writer and recentrecipient of that pile of irri-tants, I love this response tothe question: How many writ-ers does it take to screw in theproverbial light bulb? Noth-ing less than a vast and teem-ing horde stretching from seato shining sea!

That's what I call a perfectexample of exaggeration, thepure and simple amplifica-tion of a challenge.Have you,

like me, often dealt with frus-tration that way? A rebufffrom one person can becomea churning emotional abysswhere we figure the wholeworld is against us. One mis-take or wrong decision canmake us feel like we've messedup beyond redemption. Orthose times when a simpletask turns into a maze of con-voluted responsibilities be-yond our power to fulfill.

The more I learn of the sus-taining grace of God, the moreI realize His care extends farbeyond the teeming hordesand the sea to shining sea tothe tiniest detail of my life.

"But even the very hairs ofyour head are all numbered.(Luke 12:7)

Thanks, Lord. I'll stop pull-ing them out!

He has never made note of these shoes when I wear them, so I am feeling pretty safe.Well, as the saying goes, "Never say never". He NOTICED. Not only did he notice every

single pair but he began counting them. It's safe to say, he hit double digits. That's when I losthim. I can't really blame him. He did grow up with four brothers, who he says, shared threepairs of shoes. This was a man who wasn't really familiar with girls or shoes, let alone the twoput together.

So, I tried to explain. DIFFERENT SHOES were for DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. Imay as well have been speaking a different language, because he wasn't getting it. He simplycould not understand why I needed more than two pairs. A 'work' pair and a 'good' pair -just like him.

I retreated back to my side of the closet. Out of sight, out of mind. I figured it wasprobably best to lay low for awhile and come up with a different plan of attack.

That's when it happened. I decided to surprise my husband and head out to the farm tohave lunch with him while he worked in the shop. (I have just the perfect pair of shoes forthat kind of occasion). Upon arrival, I spent a few minutes waiting around while he wasfixing his sprayer with a friend. They started discussing the recent shoe dilemma in ourhouse. Both of them became resident experts in a matter of five minutes. It was two againstone. That's when I noticed he had a whole lot of tools. I mean, a LOT of tools. I opened onedrawer and noticed several screwdrivers. Screwdrivers of all shapes and sizes. Duplicates aswell. In fact there were so many screwdrivers, I lost count. What on earth would a man dowith all these screwdrivers? So, I decided to ask him.

"Honey, why do you need all these screwdrivers? Most of them are the same."His answer was, "Well, different screwdrivers serve different purposes."My answer, "Kind of like my shoes, then?"The men got quiet. Usually this is when you have your foot in your mouth.I wonder if they have a pair of shoes for that.

Mash avocados and mix all ingredients together. Note: you

can also add 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1 teaspoon chili powder and

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. Serve with tortilla chips.

MEXICAN GUACAMOLE

3 avocados, slightly soft, peeled

1 large or 2 medium tomatoes, diced

1/2 cup onion, diced

Sprinkle of unrefined salt

Juice of one lime

1 small jalapeño pepper, finely

chopped (or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne

A few sprigs of cilantro and/or pars-

ley – finely chopped

Although one medium avocado contains 320 calo-ries, these are high-quality calories — from good fat — so don’t hesitate to eat them even if you’re watch-ing your weight. They have protein, bre, vitamin E, vitamin and several minerals, but are most revered for their good fats. The anti-in ammatory bene ts of

avocado’s healthy fats may prevent everything from joint stiffness to heart disease. Also, if you add avocados or other healthy fat, like that in olives, to a salad, research shows that you absorb much more of two important antioxidants — lycopene and beta-caroten — that are found in the salad’s vegetables (and therefore increase the body’s ability to use them). Remember, “You are what you absorb, not just what you eat.” Mix and serve. Have a healthy party . . . and then have a siesta.

Mother's Day across generationsCelebrating Mother's

Day always starts by pay-ing special attention toour beloved mothersor mothers-in-law.Three or four genera-tions of mothers in thesame family can some-times take part in thiscelebration. Mother'sDay is the perfect occa-sion to put into per-spective the critical role

A bit of humanpresence is the most

beautiful of gifts.

played by each link ofthis uninterruptedchain.

Many senior womenlead active, busy lives,while others are less en-ergetic and face loneli-ness or illness. At thisstage of life, grand-mothers can be re-stored with a simpletelephone call, a visit,or an outing with the

family. After all, thepresence of loved onesis the most beautiful ofgifts. Mother's Day is atime to appreciatemotherhood and tospend some quality timewith these women whoare linked to us by bothlove and blood.

Mothers and grand-mothers can forgettheir age for a little

while when pleasure ison the menu. Amother's heart lightsup with love when achild asks her for asmall favour, even ifher active parentingdays are far in thepast. A senior canhold off the wearyingeffects of FatherTime by sharing fam-ily stories, singing afew favourite songs,and sharing some oldfamily recipes. Theseheartfelt momentsbind families togetherand create unforget-table memories for allconcerned.

These women havedone so much to keeptheir families func-tioning and well overthe years, as much asthey were able to. So,let's give mothers thegratitude they deserveon this special day.

Saskatchewan's Colleges are contributing millions of dollars and thousands of jobs to theprovincial economy, according to a new study by Praxis Research/Strategy.

The Colleges commissioned the study to assess the economic impact of the Colleges' stu-dents, graduates, and operations on the provincial economy.

"This is the first time in a long while that we have looked at this data as a group," said DionMcGrath, President and CEO of Southeast College and spokesperson for SaskColleges.

"It's a significant contribution that our Colleges make, and we are consistently doing soacross the whole province."

The study concluded that College students, graduates and operations generate a signifi-cant economic contribution to the provincial economy. The data (collected over the courseof the 2012--?13 fiscal year) shows the impact of all the Colleges, province wide.

Altogether, the Colleges provided in 2012--?13:• 4,041 jobs within the province;• $367.4 million in provincial gross domestic product (GDP);• $173.2 million in new wages and salaries (included in GDP in Saskatchewan); and• $88.5 million in federal, provincial and municipal government revenues.

"Saskatchewan's Colleges are consistently and efficiently making the most of provincialgovernment investment to train learners for the labour market and educational needs," saidMcGrath. "The results provide evidence of the impact Colleges have throughout the prov-ince."

Through partnerships with other post--?secondary institutions, Saskatchewan's Collegesdeliver a variety of career, vocational and academic programs to meet the economic needs ofthe province. Colleges also serve their communities by offering business, safety, industrialand personal interest courses.

Saskatchewan Collegescontribute millions toprovincial economy

$6.7 million to help familiessave for post-secondary

educationSaskatchewan families have received more than $6.7 million from the Saskatchewan

Advantage Grant for Education Savings (SAGES) program since the program wasannounced. More than 26,000 children in the province are now SAGES recipients.

"Saving for post-secondary education is a priority for Saskatchewan families, and Iam happy that so many children will benefit from SAGES," Advanced EducationMinister Kevin Doherty said. "SAGES helps parents plan for their children's future andencourages access to post-secondary education."

With four new SAGES providers recently added, there are now 15 financial institu-tions offering SAGES with another eight pledged to join the program soon.

Through SAGES, the Government of Saskatchewan provides a grant of 10 per centon financial contributions made since January 1, 2013, into a Registered EducationSavings Plan (RESP) to a maximum of $250 per child per year.

To be eligible for SAGES, the following requirements must be met:• the child is a resident of Saskatchewan when the RESP contribution is made;• the child is named as a beneficiary of an eligible RESP;• the contribution is made on or before December 31 of the year the child turns 17;and• contributions must be made at a participating financial institution.

"We have seen significant growth in the number of families enrolled in SAGES sinceits launch, and the numbers continue to increase," Doherty said.

(L-R) Weyburn Wildlife Federation representative Morley Forsgren discussesstrategy with Daylan Swanson and Dalton Nieszner at the NASP provincialsheld in Avonlea.

Thirty-three schools participated in the Provincial NASP (National Archery in SchoolsProgram) tournament held April 24 and 25 in Avonlea.

Weyburn Comprehensive School along with the Weyburn Wildlife Federation sentGrade 10 student Dalton Nieszner and Grade 12 student Daylan Swanson. Niesznerscored 243 with a High School Boys Rank of 34 out of 100, 10th Grade Boys Rank of12 out of 25 and an Overall Boys Rank of 73 out of 414. Swanson scored 209 with aHigh School Boys Rank of 70 out of 100, 12th Grade Boys Rank of 11 out of 15 andan Overall Boys Rank of 214 out of 415.

This was a provincial tournament that is held in Saskatchewan every year. The NASPprogram is taught in over 177 schools across Saskatchewan with students from gradefour to grade 12 learning archery as part of their school curriculum. All of theseschools and students are eligible to participate in these provincial tournaments and thenational tournaments. At these tournaments, students participate as individual com-petitors and team competitors. This year there were around 900 student archers regis-tered.

The students would like to thank the Weyburn Wildlife Federation Archery Club forthe shirts that they purchased and Knight Dodge for the use of a van for travel to thetournament.

As the Weyburn Beavers getcloser to the first pitch of theseason, the push to get every-thing ready gets stronger andstronger. The need for billetfamilies becomes crucial, theamount of volunteers neededincreases and the energy at theballpark builds.

They say, "It takes a village toraise a child", but the same can be said about a successfulsports team. Nothing is possible without the help and ef-forts of the community as a whole. Whether you open yourhome to a player, sell some 50/50s at a couple games, oreven come to one or every game.

The quarter-final match versus Kerrobert was a back andforth affair. Kerrobert took the first game and Weyburnwon the second setting up the all important third game. TheWeyburn team took advantage of their opportunities andpropelled themselves to the semi-final. In the semi-final game,the girls took on a tough team from Regina. Again, Weyburntraded wins in the first two games. The third game decidedwho would go on to play for gold. Both teams performed ata high level, trading points as the game went on. In the end,Regina took the third game by a score of 15-12, sendingWeyburn to the bronze medal match.

Not wanting to go home empty-handed, the girls recov-ered from a heart breaker semi-final and were ready play theSaskatoon Smash. Saskatoon looked disappointed to beplaying for third and Weyburn brought their "A" game, so itwas a quick 25-16, 25-13 win.

"Weyburn finished the season with an excellent showing,finishing top three in a 40 team field," commented headcoach Dustin Satre.
