************* Human imagination is not simply our means of reaching out to God but God’ s means of maifesting himself to us. ~Christian Wiman, poet

Ronald Scott from page 1 which is technically doable, but the cost estimates were in the $400 billion range, and after the politicians heard that, no one talked about it again.” After the moon landing, NASA focused on how to use the technology developed to solve national problems. Scott became an expert in alternative energy applications. The Energy Research and Development Agency was created, and later became the Department of Energy under President Carter. Scott was named as the Director of the National Solar Heating Program, and was in charge of the research and development of alternative energy sources. “We had over 1100 projects going at one time, scattered all over the U.S. We even had windmill projects in the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.” One of his most interesting assignments was when then Secretary of Energy James Schlesinger asked Scott to incorporate an alternative energy system into the White House. Another of Scott’s assignments took him all the way to Saudi Arabia. After the Arab Oil Embargo, Energy Secretary Schlesinger initiated a program to work with the Saudis on a joint energy program, and to build good will. “I remember all of us were being entertained at a Saudi state dinner hosted by King Faisal at the palace. Everything was first class. I noticed over in the corner of this palatial room a huge mound of caviar, probably several feet high, and no doubt expensive. On top of the mound of caviar was a cat, and he was eating the caviar like he starving. I bet the cat ate $10,000 worth of caviar while I was watching. You could say it was over the top!” Scott noted that, “We tried to put in incentives to encourage wind, and solar energy use. Back

then if you had a wind turbine, the utility companies wouldn’t buy back surplus electricity, we changed that. Now it’s federal law that they have to. We also put in tax incentives to encourage energy conservation.” One of Scott’s most memorable associations was Dr. Harrison Schmidt, the only scientist who walked on the moon. “I worked with Harrison on the NASA energy projects. One of my most treasured possessions is a photo taken of the earth from the moon and signed by Harrison.” In the course of his career, while serving in a number of leadership positions at the national level creating policy, Scott found time to earn a Master’s in Science at the University of Alabama, and Indiana University. As a Sloan Fellow, he was also awarded an Honorary Doctorate from Indiana University for his many accomplishments. In Washington, D.C., a few years ago, Scott was speaking to a 5th grade class encouraging the students to consider a career in math and science. One young man asked him why he chose to study math and physics. Scott paused a moment, reflecting on his youth growing up in Strong City milking cows. His reply was, “Well to tell you the truth, I wanted to get away from a Holstein cow.” For Dr. Scott it has been quite a ride through space history---all the way from Strong City to the moon. Thank-you Dr. Ronald Scott for sharing your story, and thank-you for your service to your country, and your contributions to what can only be described as the greatest adventure of human history. Dr. Ronald Scott is married to Pat Hughes Scott, an Oklahoma native, and a distinguished space pioneer in her own right. They live in Cape Canaveral, Florida, and Strong City, Oklahoma.

We are forced to one of NW/4 of 35-18-24, Roberta 36-1, EOG Resources, Total Depth 14,084 two conclusions: It is either God's fault or it is man's fault. Roger Mills County First, it naturally comes to mind to wonder if anything could be written that all men would see alike. Yet, when we think of the nature SE/4 of 13-11-23, Whitledge 4-14, Burlington, Total Depth 15,216 of God, we would have to say that God would do such a thing.

He could, and did, author a book that man NE/4 of 5-14-23, Henrik 1-5, Cimarex Energy, Total Depth 13,105 could read and understand. The Bible is that book. It claims that men NW/4 of 20-16-24, Frankfotehr 2-20, Apache, Total Depth 12,565 can understand (Eph. 5:17). God is in the enlightening business (Matt.

It is the one who knows the job NW/4 of 35-19-26, Coates 35-2, Mewbourne Oil, Total Depth 13,517 inside-out who is successful. Christianity is no different! NE/4 of 18-18-23, Shrewder 3-18, Primary Natural, Total Depth 14,268 The second greatest reason for failing to understand the Bible alike SE/4 of 12-16-24, Dunn 2-12, Apache, Total Depth 13,000 is closely akin to laziness in that the majority of people put their faith in SW/4 of 33-21-24, Mason 33-1, Mewbourne Oil, Total Depth 11,905 the interpretations of men, trusting them to "show them the way".

Cheyenne Young Lady to Play Alice in Alice in Wonderland

Sayre Main Street Community Theatre presents the musical Alice in Wonderland. The show is directed By Meagan Mathews-Oakley with set design by Cody Carnahan. Production dates are August 1-4 at the Sayre United Methodist Church. Shows Thursday, Friday & Saturday are at 7:30 p.m. with the Sunday show at 2:30 p.m. For ticket information call 580-9283355. In 1865, an English author named Charles Lutwide Dodgson, otherwise knows as Lewis Carroll, wrote the novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults and children. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre. "If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what is isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would."

Alice's adventures in wonderland are unique captivating, and in Alice's own words, "curioser and curioser." Alice is played by Dixie Boyce of Cheyenne. She will be a 7th grader at Cheyenne Public Schools and is the daughter of Chad and Sherry Smith. Other cast members are Rachel LeGrand, Sayre, White Rabbit, Oriole, Tweedle-Dum and Tulip; Destiney Bailey, Sayre, Chesire Cat, Dodo and Iris; Audry Moreno, Sayre, Queen of Hearts, Duchess, Rose, and Lady Bird; Zerakai Moreno, Sayre, Caterpillar, Mad Hatter and Lobster; Elizabeth Mendoza, Sayre, Tweedle Doo, Duck, Dod and Tulip; Faith White, Elk City, March Hare, Mock Turtle adn Daisy; Cassidy Crabb, Sayre, Dormouse; Trey Cotts, Sayre, King of Hearts; Kendra White, Sarye, Card; Emma Ferrero, Sayre, Rose Bud; and Madison Spieker, Gabby Spieker, Dalen Harrinton, Camdyn Richardson, Brawdyn Richardson, Mackenzie Thompson, Sohpie Ferrero and Ava Woods, all of Sayre.

The Old Fishing & Swimming Hole on Sweetwater Creek by E.L. Fowler, Sweetwater, Oklahoma -- We rode the horses to the creek on Sunday afternoons. The horses liked to walk in the water on a hot day to keep cool. One day, I'll never forget my cousin Neal's horse started to lay down in the creek water. Neal jumped off and was tiptoe standing in water holding on to the reins as his horse rolled in the water. Neal was wet up to his waist and all of the boys had a good laugh. Our swimming hole was on the old Topper Place. It was about 12 feet deep and 25 feet wide under some very large cottonwood trees that provided very good shade and a good rope swing to swing across the creek and drop into the water. The swimming suits were ready made from mother nature. We always watched for snakes, but most of the time they were scared of us. I will always remember one Sunday evening when we were all having fun in the water and someone said where is Donald Carmen? To our surprise he had gone under water for about the third time. I believe it was a miracle as he was drowning. We drug him up on the bank and all revived him back to life. I never know how boys ever grow up to be men as they live very

dangerously when they are young! They believe, I guess, that nothing can happen to them, but sometimes they are wrong in this belief. Vancy was a good swimmer. He never had told Aunt Verla he had learned to swim. I remember one time they were having a picnic on the creek near the old swimming hole and the grownups were all in the water…when all at once, Vancie jumped in. Aunt Verla, thinking he would drown, called out to everyone to grab Vancie! To her surprise, Vancie started swimming away from shore looking back over his shoulder grinning at Aunt Verla who almost fainted from fright. Sometime in the late summer when it got dry, the creek would almost stop running. This is when we'd go into the water where there were deep holes and grabble. Grabbling is when you reach in the holes under the water in the bank and pull fish out with your hands. Sometimes to our surprise there were snakes, sometimes poisonous, but most of the time we'd bring home a mess of fish. Some were large enough you could grab them by running your hand and arm through the gills. Some almost as big as 20 or 30 pounds! There were no food stamps back then!
