Subscription Rate: $3.50 a year in advance; Six months, 52.00 Advertising Hates on Request DON'T LEAVE IT TO JOE1 When any building project is attempted by voluntary vol-untary contributions, it's so easy to say, "Leave It To Joe." Jn the case of the West Millard Hospital, it will take every Joe, Tom, Dick and Harry of West Millard making voluntary contributions or pledges. For several years the burden of securing the hospital hos-pital has fallen on the shoulders of a few the West Millard Hospital Association. To serve on the Hospital Hos-pital Board, one must be willing to spend many hours of work without any thought of compensation just work. It is now time for everyone to help in the way that is needed, and that is by your donations or pledge. At present, several civic clubs have donated West Millard Tuberculosis Association; Fine Arts; Sunshine Club, Jolly Stitchers, and the Riding Club, to name a few. And realizing the tremendous task a-head, a-head, these clubs are continually making plans for furthering the fund drive. They need the support of everyone in their money-raising projects. After all, it's to your benefit, and the benefit of the community as a whole. Dig Deep, Brother! It's time for more Benefit Dances, Benefit Card Parties, Benefit Rummage Sales, Benefit Horse Racing Rac-ing and Benefit Reaching into your own pocket. DON'T LEAVE IT TO JOE!" O HOSPITAL BENEFIT HORSE RACES The West Millard Riding Club (work horse .of the benefit horse races) are donating freely of their time, horses and equipment for these horse races being held at Deseret. Some of the horses in these races are valued at $1,000 to $1,700. These men are doing this knowing that their horse may be crippled or hurt one way or another every time they race. We think they should get the support of all of West Millard. Weather permitting, more races will be held Saturday, Sat-urday, April 4. at 2:00 p.m. See you there. Bennett Bill Would Millard County Par Washington, March 24 Two scenic and historic attractions in Millard County could be developed as State Parks under terms of a bill introduced recently in Congress by Sen. Wallace F. Bennett (-Utah). Included among the spots in Millard Mil-lard County which have tentatively tentativ-ely been selected for future State Parks, and which would be affect-de affect-de by Sen. Bennett's bill are Gunnison Gun-nison Massacre Site and Clear Lake. The historic Gunnison site is located lo-cated a few miles south of Deseret, Des-eret, on the Sevier River, on VJ acre of federal land. Clear Lake is a fresh-water lake and is suitable for further development develop-ment for fishing, cluck hunting, camping and picnicking. It is located loc-ated about 20 miles west of Holden and cover an area of 8,320 acres. Sen. Bennett's bill, S. 1436, would remove the present limitation of C10 acres on the amount of Federal Fed-eral land which can be turned over to the states for development as state parks or recreation areas. Thus, many of Utah's most spectacular spec-tacular scenic attractions are on land owned partially or wholly by the Bureau of Land Management, the: Forest Service, or other agencies. agen-cies. In many cases, the Federal agency involved has indicated a iG'V 4 W : 3 Glenmore i THE LMIt lUl'UUM J if Ktmltr SftAt Btto Thursday, March 26, 1959 NATIONAL EDITORIAL 1 . i Permit Designated ks Development willingness to turn over the land to the State, but has been unable to do so because of the 640-acre limitation. "I have been working closely with the Utah State Parks and Recreation Commission, headed, by C. J. Olsen, which has done a truly outstanding job," Sen. Bennett said. "At present, 118 spots have been selected by the commission as likely lik-ely sites for state parks, either In the immediate future or within the next several years. Since most of these happen to be on Federal lands, passage of this bill Is necessary nec-essary before these areas can be come state parks. Projects which have been recommended rec-ommended for "immediate acquisition" acquis-ition" by the State Park and Recreation Rec-reation Commission include Cove Fort in Millard County. Projects recommended for "early action" include in-clude Fort Deseret in Millard County.

It seems that many students are getting that certain feeling of "Spring Fever" to the extent that they are, we might say, presenting a "sideshow" "side-show" for onlookers. Way back when, in grandma's day, young girls wore dresses down to their ankles and blushed blush-ed at the thought of a young man's interest. No, we don't want to go back to the days of grandma, grand-ma, but a little pride isn't at all shameful. Yes, the grass is green, the sun shines bright, and Spring is in the air; but that doesn't mean that young lovers need to present pre-sent a "free-for-all" show. There is, we believe, a proper time and place for everything. Think of the things that might go through the minds of people driving by in their cars and see "things" of this sort. We are sure that students of the D.H.S. want people to re-spect re-spect our school and think of it as one of the best. Actions ot a few students make a reputation for all. Journalism Class Attention Parents Of 9th Graders The teachers of the Delta Jr. High School, who are class advisors advis-ors to the 9th grade are very desirous de-sirous of having all parents of these students meet with them on Friday, March 27th at the Jr. High School.
