All have performed as soloists in a variety of media in major musical centers with enormous success.

C., where she also received her Master’s degree. Gene West comes from North Carolina. He holds degrees from the University of Cincinnati in Ohio, and from the London’s Academy of Music. Mr. West received a Rotary International Fellowship in 1963 for European study, and he was a finalist in the Third International Concourse of Singing in Liege, Belgium in 1963. He studied and sang professionally in London and the United Kingdom for a number of years, receiving national press acclaim for his performance in Richard Rodney Bennett’s opera, “The Ledge.” In 1967, he returned to the United States and successfully auditioned for the Metropolitan Opera Studio the following year and has been performing extensively with the Studio since that time. Wayne Tumage has been a regular member of the Metropolitan Opera since 1969. He has also appeared at the distinguished Marlboro Music Festival, the Newport Festival, Santa Fe Opera, with the Atlanta Opera Company, at the Library of Congress, and last summer, in concerts in Lincoln Center’s newest auditorium Alice Tully Hall. A former finalist in the National Metropolitan Opera Auditions, Mr. Turnage received his Master’s Degree in Musicology and Performance from Indiana University and the University of North Carolina.

From the General Assembly Delegate Duncan C. Gibb The 1971 Special Session of the General Assembly completed its work on February 26, and recessed until March 29. On that day routine matters will be transacted and it is anticipated that the Session will adjourn finally. The Governor has signed the 3 bills re-apportioning the House of Delegates, State Senate, and Congressional Districts, which is required every 10 years by the State Constitution, and has taken these bills to the United States Attorney General, who must approve them since Virginia is under the Federal Voting Rights Act. Suits have already been instituted to contest the constitutionality of these bills. If either the United States Attorney General d is-approves them, or the Courts declare them to be unconstitutional, then it will be necessary for the General Assembly to re-convene and make further attempts to re-district the State. The General Assembly appropriated from the 1970 surplus approximately 21 million dollars for aid to the localities. Of this amount approximately 17 million dollars will be granted to counties, cities, and towns for improvements to sewage treatment facilities. By making this sum available it will be possible to obtain an additional 38 million dollars from Federal funds. In 1970 a total of 47 million dollars was available for the localities for this purpose and based on the amounts contemplated for the next 4 years, it will mean that more than 279 million dollars will have been made available to localities to improve these facilities by 1975. The surplus funds were also appropriated for additional law enforcement officers to be used in the drug abuse and control programs and to help the localities in their welfare payments. This Special Session of the General Assembly was not only interesting and exciting but productive and its primary purposes were accomplished. I will discontinue these weekly reports, unless we are required to return to Richmond for an extended period of time.

Many Virginia local boards will be collocated. At the present time 129 local boards in the state are at 109 sites. Under the new plan the same number of local boards will be at 37 sites. This has the advantage of increasing the number of hours collocated boards will be open to the public. The collocation of local boards will eliminate some jobs, but will result in increased efficiency paired with an over-all cost saving to the taxpayer. The attached map shows the collocating sites. County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee. Most cost-sharing is on a fiftyfifty basis between farmers and the Government. However, the Government will assume a greater portion of the cost for certain practices carried out in special projects or by Iq^-income farmers. The ASC Committee Chairman said every attempt is being made to help farmers and the general public understand how the new Rural Environmental Assistance Program can best serve Rappahannock County. This is a continuing program with an annual allocation of funds. We plan to invite more community participation in planning and carrying out farmland conservation practices under REAP which can provide long-term, tangible benefits to the entire community -- such benefits as cleaner water and air, better recreation, green open spaces to help beautify the county, better habitat for wildlife. REAP is an agricultural conservation program for the benefit of everyone, and everyone can be involved in REAP progress.

Mrs. Blauvelt has the choir hard at work practicing for the play to be presented at the end of March. It is called, “The Belle of the West’’, and it features a lady barber. Just think of what trouble that can cause when a woman gets the razor in her hands! It should be fun to see, especially when Debbie Barron plays the barber!! ASC Program Aimed Toward Public Benefits Anti-pollution and other environmental benefits have been emphasized in the development of the Rappahannock County Rural Environmental Assistance Program (REAP) for 1971, according to H. S. Barksdale local farm leaddr. REAP was formerly ACP - the Agricultural Conservation Program, which has been operative in Rappahannock ^County for many years. The name change is the key to the program change. Long-range preservation of the environment and more public benefits are being emphasized. Lower priority is being placed on conservation practices which are production-oriented or which provide only temporary benefits. In considering applications by farmers, as individuals or in groups, the County ASC Committee will give first priority to those which will best improve the community environment and provide the most public benefits. Encouragement will be given to such farmland conservation measures as dams and ponds,' permanent grass cover, sod waterways, buffer strips, and tree plantings, all of which help retain and slow down water and reduce siltation as the water moves downstream. Practices which help reduce pollution from animal wastes, fertilizers and pesticides also will be encouraged. REAP will continue to be administered by the Rappahannock “Charles E. Sntphiir, Inc.

AMISSVILLE PLUMBING AND HEATING SERVICE Phones 937-2883 or 937-4600 Rapp-Chats By Rap Owings, Ext. Agent Eighty-four performance tested beef bulls will be sold to the highest bidders this Friday, March 12, 10 a.m. at the Culpeper Enterprises’ 13th Annual Bull Sale. Fifty-four Angus, 25 Herefords and two Charolais will be sold. These bulls are the survivors of a rigid testing program. More than twenty bulls of the original 114 did not surpass the rigid standards and will not sell. Twenty-three bulls weighed 1000 pounds or more at 365 days of age. And records on preweaning performance, 140 day feed test, and lifetime performance, are available on each bull. The top performing bull this year belongs to Dr. A. V. Bartenslager, Churchville, Virginia. Dr. Bartenslaser’s Lot 24 Angus bull, a son of Bowsell of Wye, has an adjusted 365 day weight of 1,136 pounds and gained 3.97 pounds per day on the 140 day feed test. C. E. Johnson, Jr. Sperryville raised the second highest gaining bull of all breeds on the 140 day feed test. Sired by Piccard of Wye, this Angus bull gained 3.64 pounds per day on feed test. Ray Cannon, Castleton, is the owner of the second heaviest Angus bull at 365 days of age. El Rancho Grande Bandolier 2 weighed in at 1062 at one year of age. Miss Donna Cannon, Castleton; Admiral Josef Gardiner, Flint Hill; and H. L. Manwaring, Woodville, have bulls consigned to this sale that have met the rigid standards. Several practical commercial cattlemen have told me that this is one of the better groups of bulls to go ‘through this testing program. If you are in the market for a herd bull, suggest you arrive early, get out in the bull pens and look them over thoroughly before the sale starts. Select the type of bulls that will bring about the needed change in our cow herds. Most of our Rappahannock cows have ample type and muscle. But we still need to type of bull that will stretch our calves up and out, and pass on the genes for growth and size.

Someone has said, “Thoughts are things.” Thoughts form in one’s mind and fly away to the place or person to which those thoughts are directed. That is good thoughts. Bad thoughts linger with the person who is thinking, souring his soul, or else they go out a little way and return as darts, entering and poisoning j the heart of the one who cherishes these thoughts. We cannot keep bad thoughts from our minds, we can keep them from lingering there. As the saying goes: ‘we can’t keep birds from flying over our heads, but we can keep them from building their nests in our hair! But, I want to think about good H. L BORDEN LUMBER CO.

I was telling someone recently that I thought of good thoughts, and prayers, as little angel-type beings who flew away to hover about the one to whom those thoughts were directed, touching them with their little butterfly wings, blessing that person and then returning to us, blessing us for having sent them out. It is not much of an effort to send out little prayers and good thoughts to those in need. I am sure that God uses these prayers and best wishes, not only to bless others, but He will bless you too, for having thought them. Is it our duty to do these things? The Good Book says that if you love others you have satisfied the law, that is the LAW of GOD, so let us love each other; at least to the extent of thinking of them in a kindly way. There is a poem I wanted to share with you, but I cannot find it at this time. I don’t remember the poet, the poem was titled MY TASK, I think. “To love someone more dearly every day, To help another along the way, To pause at eventime and pray, This is my task.” ANSWERS 1.
