Roufld and About With Murtha
Have you been down to
Piper's Dam lately? Even
without leaves on the trees it is
still beautiful. Sunday afternoon
there were many fishermen
casting their lines and lunches
were ' being cooked in' the nice
little park. The water was still
pretty high and yoq, could see
wl a``y}e it had been many feet
higher.
MK Stan Whitemans' of the
tit lovelystone house are working
hard on their big "barn" which
they hope to open this summer
idf
with their crafts and other lovely
gift items. Stan isn't installing
the glass floor over the rumbling
stream which runs beneath the
place. "Not THIS year," he says,
"but perhaps 'later." Anyway, it
is going to be a very attractive
building and this young couple
are rear hard ' workers , and
deserve a lot of credit . for the
'wonderful things they've done at
"Piper's Dam."
I hope you take advantage of.

that even tho' you are not a
season ticket holder, you will be
able to see this play.
I usually get.. entangled
somewhere along the line in the
early stages of the plays. You
hear the rehearsing and the sets
being made, get smeared up in
the paint job and in general get
the feel of the -excitement of the
production of a new play.
Kathy Jenkins, who . is
directing this very funny play, is
very pleased with her cast and
very proud to present "The Star
Spangled Girl" for an extra
night.
I had not seen any part of the
rehearsals and so was pleasantly
surprised at dress rehearsal.., on
Sunday. )• know you will really
enjoy it, too, so be sure to stop

The `Brahma bull has no fear
of man of horse and will attack
without hesitation. For this
reason mounted pick-up men

the Rodeo clowns show their
versatility. It is their job to
