She had always wanted to do oil paintings, but always thought she couldnt But one day, she bought oils, brushes and canvas and began. She watched painting instructors on TV and picked up what she could. Her first painting sold for $300. Then she began taking clas- do it. ses at the College of Eastern Utah. She learned about oils, watercolors and basic design. In one class taken in Salt Lake, her instructor had students write over and over again, I am an artist." Now, finally, she believes she is an artist. Not only does she paint, she teaches others and has discovered it is wonderful therapy for the ill or troubled. Shareon paints for her own enjoyment and is thrilled when someone else likes her work. She enjoys painting portraits, landscapes and silhouettes. She has discovered that if she works for what she choirs to present gospel music at concert note and the choirs will be singing a selection of gospel hymns.

She is currently excited about two things helping to form a Carbon County Arts Council and traveling to the Writers At Work workshop in Park City. Shareon is beginning a book about her experiences in breaking away from prescription drug abuse and the difficulties of a dysfunctional family. She believes the workshop will help her with her own project, as well as provide her with information to bring back to others in the community who may be interested in literary writing. Because the workshop is expensive, Higgs has been seeking financial help from various organizations in the community and was recently granted some funds from the local Soro-si- s club. Higgs is anxious to bring more arts entertainment to the area and to coordinate the arts events that are now planned in Carbon County. She is working with Nancy Takacs, a local teacher and writer, to form the council. Both realize the enthusiasm and support of the community is necessary in order to form a successful council.

Leautaud was honored at a banquet at Days Inn recently and was presented with a plaque by Lyle Bryner, chairman of the PRSCD. Leautaud started fanning in 1948 and was also a coal miner. In 1952, the family moved from Price to the farm east of town that has been home for over 40 years. He has been active in ranching throughout his life, recently narrowing his livestock down to cattle and horses. The PRSCD award was given because of Leautauds accomplishments and contributions to conservation over the years. Among his efforts are leveling 70 acres of land; laying 5,000 feet of underground pipe; laying 2,000 feet of gated surface pipe; clearing 125 acres of sagebrush and reseeding with grasses; building eight stock ponds; developing six springs; and building seven miles of stock trails and eight miles of fences and crossfences. At 74 years of age, Leautaud is still farming. He and wife, Leona, have been married 53 years. s nun tereos urniture TNm-Fr- m personnel to respond to hazardous materials accidents. This money is intended to help those local governments that currrently lack an emergency response plan for accidents involving hazardous materials. The implementation and development of safety plans for hazardous materials acci-- . dents is absolutely critical for many of our small rural communities who currently lack such a strategy, Orton said And what is really encouraging is that the funding for this program came from very reasonable user fees paid by shippers and carriers ofhazardous materials, and not by the taxpayers. Maybe more importantly, the federal government has implemented this The Carbon High Class ot '63 Reunion Committee is asking all local classmates to please attend & be a part of our 30th reunion this summer!
