Delta Arts members are now able to register for Sawtooth classes and work shops at the discounted Sawtooth member rate, and Sawtooth members will be 'invited to attend select exhi bitions and events at Delta Arts Center free of charge. "It makes perfect sense for us to develop a stronger relationship with Delta," said JoAnne Vernon, execu tive director of the Sawtooth School. "We're both visual arts organizations, we're both funded partners of the Wins ton-Salem/Forsyth County Arts Council, and we both want to expand our reach and serve a larger seg ment of the community." Daphne Holmes Johnson, interim executive director of Delta Arts Center, concurred. "While Delta's primary -focus is on exhibiting art, the Sawtooth's School's pri mary focus is on art instruc tion, so our programming is more complementary than it is competitive. Furthermore, there's very little duplication between the membership rosters of our two organizations, so this is a great way for each of us to reach new audi ences while offering our members enhanced bene fits," she said. "We will con tinue to explore other ways to collaborate during the year."

A new title from the Historical Publications Section of the N.C. Office of Archives and History, "Rebels and the King's Men: Bertie County in the Revolutionary War" portrays the overall dedication of a small rural community to freedom and democra cy - the underpinnings of the American e x p e r i - ence. "Rebels and King's Men" doc uments the contribu tions of Bertie citi zens to the war effort and chroni cles their service and sacrifices. Men served in significant numbers in North Carolina's Continental Line regiments and companies of the county's detached militia. But a seg ment of the population devoutly sup ported King George III and became entwined in a Loyalist conspiracy that sprouted in northeastern North Carolina during the spring of 1777. Once exposed in Bertie and neigh boring counties, the plot was quickly and thoroughly crushed by Whig leaders. This is the third volume in the Bertie at War series by Bertie County native Gerald W. Thomas, a retired former auditor and federal employee. "Rebels and Kings: Bertie County in the Revolutionary War" sells for $25.62, including tax and shipping.
