Show 2 THE CITIZEN MAY THURSDAY, 5. 1977 Profiles From The Past By THFODA DOWNS Chairman Historical Heritage Society Smithfield Since the beginning of Health Days in May of 1925, Smithfield Summit School has participated. On Thursday, May 12 at the Sky View High School they will do so once again in song and dance. . . their annual spring festival. Then, on Saturday they will march in the parade Crusading" once again for Health, as those students did some 52 years ago. The first year it was a crusade for better teeth and Sometimes they would put on the costume of a toothbrush or a tube of toothpaste. Or it might be a glass of milk. They might portray good health by getting lots of sleep or exercise. We remember a first grade class one year marching down Main Street in their nightgowns. . . ready to get that good night's sleep. The productions got so big, and were so well attended they had to move outdoors. For years they were held in the Junior High School Gym. . . But the night that it got so crowded and so hot that one of the men in the audience passed out. . . it was decided this was no longer a healthy Health Dav pageant. It then paper while worried school personnel tried some thirty minutes to gather those 500 plus students back together for a performance. The next move was back to the Summit School where the performance took place once again in the evening under the lights northwest of Summit School. When the Junior High School moved to North Cache and Summit into the south building, the festivals moved to the south side of the street after many years absence. This time to the south of the building. Each year the studentbody grew and the crowds that came to the festivals grew too. It was the centennial of the meeting of the rails in 1969 that the school really outdid itself. They carried out the meeting of the rails that year with their own miniature train which actually ran on rails across the field. ..Old Jupiter came from one direction and No. 119 from the other. With the driving of the spikes and the moving of the railroad to its completion, the students sang their hearts out in their enthusiasm which climaxed their study of the meeting of the rails. Each year after the performances moved outdoors, everyone watched the sky as Health Days drew near. There were always clouds and rain before the time arrived. We recall one day when it was particularly right up to the last moment, but the show always seemed to go on.. .and on time. Only once do we ever remember it being rained out before completion. There were times, however, when students and staff were still carrying the chairs and sound equipment into the building when the raindrops came falling on their heads. One night the storm waited until the last Amen".. .then the wind took the screen on which slides were projected for the finale...and took it flying across the ball field. In '1971, the year Summit School Festival was rained out before the maypole dancers got started, a decision was made to move indoors once more. The next performance was held in the Sky View Gym where the crowds still packed the gym to standing room only. This year, plans are to make more room for the public and another change will be taking place. Students will come to the hall for their performance as if it were a large stage, perform and then exit for the next group. The children will not be vegetables, or fruits, or any other thing that is good for your health, but they will be singing and dancing and proving to one and all that...THE WORLD IS BRIGHT WHEN YOU FEEL RIGHT. ...And. if exercise is enod depicting WHEN THE Summit School Festivals were held outdoors, the mountains and trees formed a beautiful backdrop to the many dances and programs that the youngsters performed.

THE SPECIAL DANCE that goes along with the dance around the Maypole have always been a traditional part of the Spring festival held at the Summit School. As part of the festival, the Maypole is now braided indoors at the Sky View Gym.

Home gardners have also been preparing their little plots awaiting anxiously to plant. Many were seen this past weekend planting only those plants that are safe from the still threatening frost while others wait even longer to insure no threats. The most secure way to hav? plant protection is to set them out in a green house or to cover them with a plastic shield. According to Marlin Gittens, Smithfield, tomatoes, peppers, cauliflowers, and cabbage plants should not be set out in the ground until after May 15. Each year Marlin builds a green house on the south side ever at their Pancake Supper Thursday evening. Suppers have been held the past 10 years. They were happy to have been eaten out of house and home." Many said what a good meal it was. Everyone was urged to eat all they wanted.

We want to find out what kinds of problems the clinic is able to solve and who is doing the solving." said Dr. Nielsen. The test will seek answers to four basic questions: (1) How frequently in the population do emotional and behavioral problems arise? (2) What do people do when they face these problems? (3) What is the attitude of the community toward these kinds of problems? (4) How aware of mental health facilities are the residents of the area?
