'listening' is program topic Vem Hofman presented the educational topic, "Listen- ing," at Tuesday night's meeting of Evening Toast- masters. He said listening is 45 per cent of the communications program, the other types being reading, writing and speaking.

A listener is ap- praising or evaluating what is being said, such as the pastor in church or the boss at work. Hofman declared the listener should appreciate the speaker because of the work involved in preparing his subject. A speaker might also ask for a group discussion which would bring out extra information also helpful to the listener. A listener might develop his thoughts on the subject matter and then look for main arguments. Dan O'Connor won best speech award for "A Fun Weekend," and Gary Shipley was judged best evaluator.

President Darrell David- chik also acted as toastmaster of the evening. Topic Master Russ Aerni asked each member to speak extem- poraneously on current bills in the legislature, and Gene Boger won the table topics award.

LPPD directors talk budget Loup Power District directors faced the same problem as today's housewife when they met this morning in Columbus--the budget. Vern Beckmann of the auditing department said the cost of purchased power last month rose nearly 31 per cent from the same month a year ago, 9.54 mills per kilowatt hour as compared to 12.48- mills.

The boost was because of a production cost ad- justment which nearly quadrupled because of the higher prices for fuel used in many power generation plants. Income during the month increased also, Beckmann noted, bringing the budget into approximate balance although "The budget doesn't mean much right now." A supplemental work orasr on a line to Creston substation received approval, the job costing $532 less than ex- pected.
