Every small effort can bring big rewards and will make a difference in the quality of life of our reserva tion. Here are some ways we can begin on our journey to a healthier life. Volunteer and a local child abuse program, support groups and crisis center. All welcome and encourage volunteers. Call Victim of Crime Services for further information at 553-2293. Report suspected abuse or neglect. Keeping children safe means that each and everyone of us has an obli gation and duty to inform authorities if we have any reasonable suspicion that a child has been harmed. Call the Warm Springs Police Department at 553-3342 or 9-1-1. Advocate for services to help fami lies. Warm Springs needs compre hensive services that address issues that affect families. Parenting pro gram, health care and housing needs are all important to maintaining healthy children and their families. Speak up for non-violent TV pro gramming. Let local affiliate TV sta-, tions know, and their sponsors know, when you feel they are showing pro grams with excessive violence. Make a material or monetary con tribution to the local Victim of Crime services. Your donation and time will be greatly appreciated. VOC services immediate needs are toiletries, lin ens and furniture, such as dresser drawers. Help a friend, neighbor or rela tive. Someone you may know could be struggling with their parental re sponsibilities. Assist with an occa sional helping hand or lend an ear, fellowship in prayer. Help yourself. Recognize the signs that indicate outside help is needed. If you feel constantly sand, angry, out of control, get help immediately. Remember, it's a strength to seek programs on child abuse prevention sponsored by Victim of Crime services. Do your part by rais ing awareness in the community. Promote programs in your child's schools that promote prevention strat egies. Help by learning and teaching skills to help your child learn how they may protect and therefore pre vent them from those who would abuse them. This message and these activities are brought to you by Victims of Crime Services, Victims Assistance Board of Directors and the Commu nity Health Education Team. Many people make a Doctor visit for chronic tiredness that won't go away. This isn't the satisfying ex haustion of healthy exercise. This is a draining weariness that leaves you feeling permanently washed out. To make matters worse, sleep fails to pep you up so you start the day with an energy deficit. This kind of tiredness comes from the anxiety and frustration of unfulfilled goals, and a feeling of being spread too thinly. Energy flows freely when you've got a sense of purpose, but when your daily routine is fragmented, life can seem dull and wearisome. You may not even realize you're low, because you're blocking out the problem. Women especially, are prone to this as iron deficiency translates into fatigue. The problem is worse when the women have a career and family to be juggled. Women who stay at home face little better, as repetitive chores and the pressure of waiting on demanding children make for a daily round of exhaustion. The good news is that you can get your life back under control with a little preplanning and practice. Soon you wili be jug gling job, home, kids, partner and parents. Knowing your fatigue is really important. Feeling tiredness at the end of the day is not a bad thing. It is the type of fatigue that counts. Check back through your day and ask your self exactly what it is you think has emptied your tank. If could be the fatigue that follows an illness or in dicates one (diabetes, cold, flu). The fatigue could be from hopelessness, loss of self-confidence, weeping and perhaps panic attacks. A guidance counselor may be able to get you back on track. Fatigue may also come from working your body to capacity (physically). It has a satisfying edge to it and may leave you feeling men tally uplifted. Physical fatigue is al ways positive. Taking control of your life Fatigue can cause depression, and depression can occur when life gets Jones asks for support j ! Before you spank, read this.... I I . Ignore irritating, aggravating, annoying behavior if you can. I Walk away, look away, move away. Say nothing. Learn the art and strength of silence. Since children want and need attention, j they will learn quickly that they don't get it with misbehavior. 2. Watch for appropriate behavior. Call attention to it with j rewards, special privileges, warm looks, smiles, hugs and thank you's. 3. If the behavior is dangerous or destructive, DON'T ignore it. As soon as you see it, step in and take action. STOP it. 4. The way you stop it is important. Stop it in the least reinforc I ing way possible with a glance, a look, a shake of the head or, if necessary, with the words, "Stop it." Take the child by the I hand and more him away from the scene. Let him know in no . uncertain terms that his actions are not okay and must stop. I 5. Don't deal with the child in public. Move to a private place and let him know that he must stop what he is doing. 6. Make sure your message is clear. It might be necessary for : I him to sit in a chair or spend a few minutes along to get control of himself. 7. When you are sure that he understands your message, let him I return. Watch to make sure that the behavior is not repeated. If it is, then repeat the process more firmly with more time out. It is important that you give as little attention as possible, ' but enough to correct the situation. The breaking of rules I warrants a different method of discipline. Punishment cannot I undo the deed. It only alienates and separates the parent from the child. I a. Discuss the breaking of the rule in terms of the future. Set up I guidelines. Be specific about expectations and consequences. I b. Make sure that he understands the privileges which will be I take away if he breaks the rules again. I c. Follow through. Be tough, but not mean. d. Be consistent so your child knows what to expect. When dealing with a child's behavior, it helps to move close to the child; make eye contact with him; talk with him quietly; remain calm; don't embarrass him in front of others; tell him I what you want to do in specific terms and stick with it until the I job is done.

The county Com mission was unanimous in Jack's appointment to Sheriff in 1997. Jack has been in law enforcement for twenty-one-years. Twelve of those years in a supervisory position with 6 of those years as police chief or sheriff. Managing the Sheriff's Office is complex and demanding. It is time for stability and proven leadership. As important as his experience Jack feels that voters should look at his contributions to the community in his off duty hours. Though he has only been in Jefferson County for about five years he has a list of vol unteer service to our communities. "I Want to make a difference and I believe volunteering is critical. It sets the example I want my children to follow. Besides this is my home and worthy of the investment" says Jones. When asked what he feels the Sheriffs Office and Tribal relation ship should be, Jones is quick to say. "I feel we should be there to help one another. At the same time I respect the sovereignty of the Reservation. I feel that we have an excellent rela tionship with the Tribal Police. We are working together on a bike rodeo for our children as well as safety seat inspections. My future goal is to meet with the Tribal Council and ask their guidance on ways we can work to gether." Jones adds that he is endorsed by all three Commissioners, the District . Attorney, State Representative Ben Westlund, County Juvenile Director and both neighboring Sheriff's de partments. Commissioner Bellamy sums it up best, "I'm supporting Jack Jones for County Sheriff because he is the only candidate that understands the total job of being Jefferson County Sheriff." thank you, i. - out of control. Get a hold of the reins again, and your days will no longer seem like one unsatisfying scramble. Plan your day the day before and stick to it! Include time to exercise and a time to relax. Plan to put the children to bed early and spend that little time to yourself. That time to yourself is a critical component of physical and mental well-being. As you gain more control of your life explore ways to introduce a new di mension away from fatigue such as planting a garden, art class, or a lan guage class for examples. You may also share the chores with your partner andor children and avoid feeling guilty about taking time out for a hobby all your own. Reshaping and your daily routine can also help to reshape your body. Treat your body with respect, and it will supply all the energy you need. Eat regular, well balanced meals that are low in fat and high in fiber, and whatever you do, don't skip out on breakfast. Include plenty of fruits and vegetables in your meals. Take up regular activities for at least 30 minutes such as walking, biking, or swimming to tone up your entire body and get that oxygen flowing. Your body will love you for all the things you do and the change you've accomplished.
