Members of the ensemble were trumpet players Esteban Lope7., Bambi Ramos, Felipe Lopc7, Jody Schaap, Rusty Hamilton, Josh Hemphill, Leslie Settle, Carl Brightbill and Krista Bryant, alternate; French horn players Shelly Burleson, Joel Harrison, Kandace Floyd, Susan Evans and Christi Johnson; baritone players Kraig Durrett and Troy Har- rison; trombone players James Teague, Lionel Jiminez, Trey Warren, Michael Oglesby and Casey Ponciano; tuba players Damon Loper and Mike Schaap.

Performing an euphonium/bar- itone solo was Kraig Durrett. Durrett received an excellent rating at the state competition pl aying "Mozart Sonatina· by Mozart / Ernst. Kandace Floyd received an excellent rating performing a vocal solo, "A La Maria". A nutc quartet also competed. Members of that quartet were Tammy Duran, Wendy Knox, Cathy Howell and Candy Perez. Performing twirling solos at the contest were Kandace Floyd and Melissa Lopez. This was one of the toughest contests held in the state, according to band director Harold Bufe. These individuals competed with soloists and ensembles from every classification, from 5A to lA. They were judged on their merits and performed with the best of all the state, said Bufe.

City using all means for mosquito control "We're spraying as much as we can when W!! can; Aber- nathy water superintendent Mike Grimsley said about the city's mosquito control efforts. . The city has held off using an airplane for aerial application because of the frequent rain storms hitting the area. It costs approximately $2,000 for each airplane application and $500 for each ground application. An aerial application was made early Thursday morning. If rain follows either method no residual effects arc real- ized. Only mosquitos that come in contact with the spray arc killed. Complicating matters is the amount of rain the city has received. The ground has become saturated causing the water to re- main on top in low lying areas. These become excellent breed- ing grounds for mosquitos. Depending on the type of mosquito, they can reproduce in three to seven days. Frequent rainfall cancels any long lasting effects of the spray allowing new mosquitos to hatch faster than they can be controlled. Rain has also increas.ed weed growth giving the m<•squitos good nesting places. Grimsley said that neither aerial nor ground spraying can laterally penetrate all areas of the city. City residents should make sure there is no standing water around homes. They can also follow application directions exactly and personally spray underneath shrubs and in other isolated areas that are covered or blocked from the city's spraying. City employees were ground spraying late Wednesday and continued until early Thursday morning. Grimsley said it would only be a "contact kill" if rain storms hit the area any time soon.

Clark Riley made a motion to accept a plan provided by the Baker Agency, which the school district has used p.-eviously. Steve Riter seconded the motion and it earned, 7-0. . The plan will cost the district $23,040. Last year's insurance was $19,040. Galloway said that most Abernathy athletes do not have other insurance which causes Abernathy's insurance to go up in price. The coverage is for all stu- dents involved in extra cur- ricular · activities, whether ath- letics, band or University Inter- scholastic League competition. The board approved a techno- logy plan for 1992-93. The plan provides staff · training in new technology; calls for updates of existing hardware and software, particularly in the high school computer lab; replaces the business application computers; and allows for the purchase of accounting software. The state will pay $30 for each student based .on the average daily attendance for each school district a technology plan. It is set up on a five year cycle.

Currently the state mandates 20 hours of staff development during a school year. The waiver requests that there be three less days of instruction and that they he used for staff development. If the waiver is approved by the state, students will have three early release days rather than six, according to Floyd.

Currently the middle school has nine periods per day and the feeling of the administration is that too much time is wasted going from class to class. The proposed plan will block core curriculum classes - math, English, science and social studies.

The last beD bas rung for the school year. Students uc happy summer vacatioa is here and the fun begins.

MBDy children forget the rules of safety as they have their minds on havina fun fiH' the summer.

Major V J. Cawthon, Regional Comm&Dder of the Texas De­partment of Public Safety, is asking aU Texas motorists to drive with mra care this time of year . .

"Long trips across our state CaD be very stressful on aU occupants in the car, said Cawthon. "Frequent rest stops should be used to let the child­ren run off some of their excess energy. Remember, to protect everyone in your car by using your safety belts:"

Major Cawthon also reminds us to be extra careful to keep alert while driving in residential areas. Children seem to forget about the traffic around them and run into the roadways unexpectedly, not realizing that oncoming cars are in the area.

Since, the younger children do

not know the law, it would be wise to always expect the unexpccted and be prepared to give them the right of way.

"In order to make this an accide~u free summer vacation, motonsts need to take a more mature attitude towards safe driving, • Major Cawthon said.

"Let's all remember to slow down a little and live a lot by driving defensively each and every day of this sum mer while school is out ."

Don't make this a familiar sight! Most stores close because local people did too much shopping

out of town. In fact, there are many cases where most of the retail businesses in a community have closed.

If that were to happen here, who would be left to pay this community's taxes. The empty store fronts wouldn't be able to pay their share.

Who would be contributing work and money toward local groups and projects that we all are interested in?

Keeping our hom~ community healthy is everyone's responsibility and the results benefit us all.

Pre .. planning makes a difference "We can Jive a service thal some

bigger f uner homes can not give; said Todd Abell about Abell Funeral Home in Abernathy.

"We're smaller, we;.;have the timt;. and eventually we're going to know most of the people that we serve."

They are able to give that special attention only available in a small town.

The A bells offer traditional funerals and cremation. Their funerals arc not limited to Abernathy.

They work with Lubbock funeral homes and cemeteries. They can make arrange­ments wherever a family wants the ser­vices.

Abell Funeral Home has even conducted funerals in Lubbock funeral home chapels.

It is nol unusual for a funeral it take place in Abernathy and the graveside services to be in another place.

They especially wants to be of service lo the New Deal and Petersburg com­munities, two area towns which do not have their own funeral homes.

Once the Abells are contacted lhey can take care of all the details for the family. They can even help in selecting the flowers and music for the funeral service.

The Abells sells cemelery plots in Abernathy Cemetery when a family has nol already purchased one. And when the funeral is planned, they takes care of all the arrangements al the cemelcry along wilh lhe services.

Abell Funeral Home provides families with monuments, purchased from Slaton Monument in .Lubbock. Todd said most often lhcse are purchased a few months after lhe service.

"It's usually better · if a family will monlh or so; said Todd. "They can be thinking about it. It's usually better if they don't make any major decisions real quick."

Todd Abell helps people plan their own funerals with pre-need funeral plans. In this program most details of the funeral arc planned prior to a person's death.

"Pre-need funerals serve several ser­vices," said Todd.

By paying for the funeral in the pre­need program, the expenses are locked in at the cost at the time of the orginal contract.

"It freezes the cost. They get to buy the funeral at loday's c:ost and whether they live 20 - 30 - 40 years down the road, when they die it's still at the cost that they pay today.

'Another thing that it does, the family knows exactly what they ~nted and it cuts down about SO percent of the deci­sions that have to be made at the time of death,' said Todd. "

The money a person pays -.for tJ1c pre­need funeral is placed in a tr~ with Mission Life l111ur111ce Col!lpaDY~ This company deals primarly Witll ~' ptans ud 15 regulated by the baDidDa industry;

The money is secure, Toda said. There is no reason for a penon to worry. The funeru is paid for ud the family will be aware or all the dotails that were pre­planned.

When usiJi1 the pre-need prOSJ!UJI the

person selects the casket, vault and selects the type of funeral they wanl.

This early decision making cuts down on the things a family has to decid!= . duriqg a very emotional time. The familY can change some or the plans at the time of death, should they decide to but they could lose some of the financial benefits.

After pre-planning, if a person moves and another funeral home handles the service, most often that funeral home will honor the contract. But the funeral home should be asked to be certain there is no problem, prior to need.

Even if a funeral is not pre-paid, Abell Funeral Home keeps information on file a person might wanl at their funeral. That is another way for someone to ensure their funeral is the w~y they desire.

Todd and Carley Abell look over opera­lions of Chambers Funeral Home 12 months ago and changed the name to be Abell Funeral Home last August.

During those months they have rede­corated lhe interior, painted inside and out and arc in lhe process of planting flower beds around the exterior of the building.

The Abells came from Pampa where Todd was a funeral direclor for len mon­lhs. Prior to that Todd was employed by a Ralls funeral home for live years.

Todd attended the Dallas Institute of Funeral Service, graduating in 1986.

"As much as anything, I was curious about it," Todd said about getting into the funeral home business.

Todd and Carley were already married and living in Amarillo when Todd got his first eKpcrience in the profession. Todd was attending Amarillo College, consider­ing a career in social work or business.

While going to school, Todd was work­ing al a children's sheller which was closed down.

His curiosity about the funeral business lead him to take a job at a funeral home in Amarillo.

"Carley thought I'd lost my mind,' said Todd. "We hadn't been married very long.'

That curiosity has led to a life pro­fession and led Todd and his family to Abernathy.

Business hours for Abell Funeral Home is 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. When it is necessary, they stay open for funeral visitation until Sp.m.

They also keeps the maps of the Aber­-nathy Cemetery so when someone is trying to locate a grave, they can find it.

Helping Todd out during funerals is the familiar face of Abernathy Mayor Shue Cunningham. He assisted Joe Chambers when be owned Abernathy's funeral home and has continued to work with the Abells when necessary.

The Abells plu to begin a drua aware· ness program in the fall at the area schools. The progJam includes a Short video tape message about the hazards or using drugs ud has impac:tful posters.

Abell Fnneral Home has a 24-hour answering service wbCn they are not at tht! funeral home. Their number is 298-2331. Th~ business is ~ocatcd ~ 411 16th ,St. in Abernathy.

Incredible ocean facts

Tile Hawallaa lalaads were oriJiaaUy volcanoes! How did that happen? When volcanoes on the

ocean's botlom ei'Upt, hot lava piles up - layer upon layer.

Eventually, the sides become higher, thicker, and soon 1he underwater volcano is high enough to rise above the surface of the water. This is how the Hawaiian Islands formed.

Not all islands are made from volcanoes; some are tops of mountains!

What's tbe dllferencr between ocean and sea? "Sea .. is a name for areas

of the ocean that are partly surrounded by land. The sea is only part of the ocean.

Beach sand is all different colors

Some grains of sand are brigh1 while, while others are green or pink, or some­times even black!

What causes the color'/ The materials that fonn the sand create its color.

For example, where sea·

Another important benefit to basting with Miracle Whip salad dressing is that it adds moisture to foods that can dry-out from the irilling process. Vegetables and lean meats such as chicken, fish and certain cuta of pork and beef need something to protect them against the drying effects of the hot grill.

Early pru'niog may cause

tree disease Unkept tree limbs may be

unsightly since leaves have popped oul, but experts warn that trimming now could cui into tree health.

If you're tempted to prune now, don't. A lot of oak wilt disease can be prevented if the trees aren't wounded.

·Oak wilt is a fungal disease that can race through Spanish, blackjack or live oak groves in root systems or by sap-feeding beetles. Infected trees may die in three weeks to six months.

All lirewood that comes from an infected part of the slate should be covered with clear plastic. That causes the area under the plastic to heat which kills both the fungus and the beetles that transport the spores.

The best time to prune is in late June through September and January through early February.

Oak wilt is the deadliest oak tree disease in Texas. Tree experts go to the trenches, literally, every year in a multi­million-dollar battle against oak wilt.

Control techniques most frequently involve diaina a lhree-foot trench 100 feet 1rom the last sick tree in an oak wilt disease center. The trenches, which con be immediately back filled, sever shared roots that may transport the disease from the tree.

Meanwhile, researchers arc exploring new treatment methods.

It signifies our sacrifice And willingness to pay the price, That all throughout our history Combined to keep our nation free.
