"It's gratifying to see the Excess Property Program saving the taxpayers- money," adds Paul Squires, supervisory supply specialist in UPO's Property and Procurement Branch, "by enabling federal agencies all over the country to utilize already existing property rather than making new purchases." Declared excess property only in March of this year, the device was reported on a nationwide computer listing circulated to agencies within the Department of the Interior and spoted by the National Park Service at Liberty Island, which owns the statue. Reclamation immediately responded to the National park Service request and shipped the device to the Martin Van Buren National Historic Site in k, N.Y., where it will be recalibrated and transplanted to its new home in the Lady. "Restoring America's favorite Lady for her 100th anniversary included not only school kids, engineers and a host of recon-struction experts," reports P. Kirt Carpenter, projects manager over U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's Utah Projects Office in Provo, "but also an important component from Reclamation. "Our office unexpectedly got involved in the Miss Liberty restoration project last week," says Carpenter, "when we shipped a surplus hygrothermograph to New York for installation inside the statue, to measure temperature and relative humidity. "One of the primary factors contributing to the early deterioration of the statue was the moisture condensation on the inside which led to a series of reactions that eventually produced small holes over the copper surface, which in turn let in more water. "We've used these instruments in the past at Reclamation weather stations for collecting cclimatological data that is valuable in planning dams and reservoirs in Utah.

Week will attract thousands The most difficult decision facing some students at BYU this summer isn't whether to major in economics or biology, it's trying to choose among the nearly 1100 classes of-fered at BYU's annual Education Week, Aug. 18-2- More than 20,000 students from the U.S., ' and several foreign countries will converge on the Provo campus to attend the five-da- y event. Ellen Allred, education week coordinator, said participants will find an exciting challenge before them in the new course selections available this year. "We have all ranges of classes, from genealogy to professional development workshops," Allred said. "In the past, people weren't sure what Education Week was exactly. They thought perhaps it was simply full of religion courses and that's not true at all. Only 20 percent of the classes offered are about religious subjects." Iivfact, she said, 160 teachers will share their knowledge on such subjects as skills, art history, gardening, human relations, healthy lifestyles, computers, history and values, finances, literature, marriage and the delicious art of cooking French cuisine, among other subjects. While many people do attend Education Week to try their hand at a multitude of unique subjects, those eager to dig deeply into religious discussions won't be disappointed. A first this year is an entire catalog of genealogy courses that offers participants the chance to attend a one-da- y workshop or week-lon- g sessions. Basic research skills, computer use and special needs are highlighted, along .with specific genealogical research from countries around the world. Also scheduled and sporting its own selection of classes is a series dealing with problems in management, leadership and professional development. Presentations on stress, time management, leadership skills, financial planning and labormanagement relations are a few issues on the agenda.

It was in August 1877 that Brigham Young issued the call to the saints in Sanpete to settle Castle Valley. It was the last such call he would make, for he died seven days later. There is a tale that the letter calling for the settlement of Castle Valley was posted on the church door so everyone who could read came to what is now Emery County, presumably leaving the illiterate behind. In reality, it was the hardy and adventurous who answered the call to pull up barely established roots and begin lives anew in Castle Valley. Once again there were homes to build, cities to establish, canals and ditches to dig and farms to make fertile. Perhaps' it was the women who suffered most, as they left their established homes in Sanpete to live in dugouts along the creeks in Castle Valley. One is reported to have said in dismay, "Has it come to this, that I must live in the ground?" Told with understanding and sympathy for their struggles, respect for their religious beliefs and even some humor, the pageant is based on fact and written in the vernacular of the pioneers. A traditional Emery County lamb fry and pioneer arts fair is held each day of the pageant at Castle Dale City Park from 8 p.m. The pageant begins at dusk and admission is free. Visitors are advised to bring wraps for the cool mountain evenings. For more information call |
