RULES COMMITTEE TO REVIEW NEW FAIR DATES South Dakota Secretary of Agriculture Larry Gabriel will be presenting the South Dakota State Fair's proposed new dates for review to the Legislative Rules Review Committee. State Fair Manager Susan Hayward said the entire process will take about 45 days to complete with a hearing planned in December, probably in Pierre. She said the public will be informed when the hearing is set, giving everyone the opportunity to attend and enter testimony. Members of the legislative committee are Sen. Royal (Mac) McCracken, chairman; Rep. Jean Hunhoff, R-Yankton, vice chairman; Reps. Orville Smidt and Richard Engels, and Sens. Eric Bogue and Paul Dennert. In other business, Hayward reported that a State Fair Task Force has been formed to promote year-round events on the fairgrounds. SOUTH DAKOTA SONG BOOK "The Great Speckled Bird" ascribed to Rev. Guy Smith 1. What a beautiful thought I am thinking Concerning the great speckled bird Remember her name is recorded On the pages of God's Holy Word. 2. With all the other birds flocked against her And she is despised by the squad But the great speckled bird in the Bible Represents you the great church of God. 3. With all the other churches against her They envy her glory and fame They hate her because she is chosen And has never denied His dear name. 4. Desiring to lower her standard They watch every move that she makes They long to find fault with her teachings But really they find no mistake. 5. She is spreading her wings for a journey She is going to take by and by When the great trumpet sounds in the morning She will meet her dear Lord in the sky. 6. In the presence of all her despisers With a song never uttered before She'll arise and be gone in a moment Till the great Tribulation is o'er. 7. I am glad I have learned of her meekness I am glad that my name is on her book For I want to be one never fearing On the face of my Savior to look. 8. Oh, her wings shelter men of all nations Of earth's every color and race She has gathered them all in her keeping To present to her Lord face to face. 9. When Christ cometh descending from heaven With the clouds as He writes in His Word I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him On the wings of the great speckled bird.
