This is what happens at meetings, themain heart or sole purpose of the meeting is long lost and forgotten by everyone. We seem to go walking out with fresh ideas on how to prepare beef stew, and how to undermine the boss. This is a most serious fault of humans. What can be done to correct this sad situation. Well keep in mind that light conversation is fine as long as it does not interfere with the main purpose of such gatherings Leave trivia where it can do the most good.

"The Black ^ Stallion Mystery" s When three foreign colts arrived in the United States to be sold at the yearling sales, young Alec Ramsay realized they were worth their weight in gold. They looked enough like his world famed Black stallion to have had the same sire, yet according to the records such a horse was dead. Were the records wrong? Was the Bl^k^sir^ still alive? The possibility of finding the sire of the Black stallion drove Alec to take his horse overseas. Together with his old friend, Henry Dailey, he traveled a long and perilous path which led to a fantastic mountain retreat in a far off land. There a stud was sent to catch a stud with Alec riding his great Black stallion in one of his most exciting race! "The Blood Bay Colt" Jimmy Creech was old and tired. After fifty years of harness racing at county fairs, he was being crowded out by the newcomers who had made the sport a business at the large, modern race tracks. His only hope lay in the Blood Bay colt, second son of the Black stallion, and his young driver Tom Messenger. Only they could put Jimmy Creech on top again, with the fastest two-year-old in America. Here is another exciting racing story by Walter Farley, author of the popular Black Stallion series. "The Black Stallion" Alec Ramsay first saw the Black stallion when his ship years old on May 30. Best wishes and many more to come guys! Sharing the celebration is Erna Piatt who will be having a birthday on May 30 also. Have a nice day too, Erna! Please remember to observe Memorial Day for those loved ones and friends who lost their lives for our country. docked at a small Arabian port on the Red sea. Little did he dream then that the magnificent wild horse was destined to play an important part in his young life; that the strange understanding which grew between them would lead through untold dangers to high adventure in America. This is Walter Farley's classic story of a boy's love for his-horse, a horse the New York Times has called "The most famous fictional horse of the century!" "The Black Stallion and Satan" The Black stallion's colt, Satan, was a great horse. He had won many famous races. Then from far off Arabia came the black to start the greatest controversy racing circles had ever known. Which horse was faster? Could the speed possessed by the Black, a desert raised stallion, be matched by his colt, who had been trained solely to race? Readers will thrill to the terrifying race which brings these two horses together - a contest run against the background of a flaming forest fire. "The Island Stallion" The Red stallion stood on the island cliff, silhouetted against the moonlit walls, like a giant statue. When Steve Duncan saw him, he knew this \ was his horse. His quest after the great stallion led Steve into a fascinating lost world a world untouched since the days of the Spanish conquistadores. With Steve, the reader enters this dangerous world and meets Flame, the wild horse of his dreams. The author of the popular Black stallion series has written another exciting 'and moving horse story for young readers. "C.W. Anderson's Favorite HorseJStories" A word from Mr. Anderson "Through the years, as my interest in horses grew, I collected all available material in this field. The collection of factual writing grew apace but the shelf devoted to fiction on the subject remained small. Having horses as constant companions gave me a realization of their qualities and characteristics and consequently made me more aware of all the false stories about them. Too many writers in this field have had little equipment for the task other than enthusiasm and a vivid imagination. Not good substitutes for real knowledge. From this shelf a collection of thirty years and from those stories of actual horses whose careers read like fiction, these are selected in the hope that the reader may have testes akin to mine. Many of these stories have long been out of print and so will be new to present day readers. Will James and Ross Santee lived the life they wrote, and since they and the rest they knew are gone, the stories are unique. Horses with such unusual personalities as Brown Jack, Tetrarch, and riders with Steve Donoghue's perception and understanding may not come our way again. And Man 0' War! What anthology would be complete without him. As one noted turf writer said, "He was as near to living Flame as horses ever get." We also have a new title "The Black Stallion and the Girl" and an old-favorite "National Velvet" LeeSwetman, Children's Librarian ORGAN WORKSHOP The recently restored Hutchings pipe organ at St. Mary's church, Lincoln and Tryon streets, Woodstock, will be featured in a series of Saturday workshops June 1, 8 and 15. Each session is scheduled from nine o'clock to twelve o'clock noon. The workshop series is open to organists from churches of all faiths, as well as to non-church organists, and other interested musicians. Pianists, who have a good working knowledge of the piano keyboard, and organists who play the electronic organ but who are interested in playing the pipe organ, will also find this workshop very worthwhile.

Dial-direct rates do not apply on Operator-assisted calls such as coin, credit card, collect, person-to-person, hotel guest calls, or calls charged to another number. In areas where direct-dialing facilities are not available, DDD rates also apply to Operator-assisted station-to-station calls that elsewhere could be dialed direct. You shouldn't. After 3 minutes, the rate-per-minute never goes up. And often goes down. So you can make a four, five or even a ten- minute Long Distance call for a lot less than you might think. For example, let's say you wanted to make a Saturday afternoon call to a friend in New York City. If you dial direct, you could talk for ten minutes foi just $1.55, plus tax. You could make a similar ten-minute call to Los Angeles, San Francisco or even Seattle for only $2.05, plus tax. Think about that, next time you're racing the clock.
