The last week was overflowing with new and exciting experiences for me. The plane trip to Washington, Washing-ton, D.C. was wonderful, the meetings meet-ings were informative, and the people peo-ple were friendly and interesting. While the meetings were the reason and the substance of my trip, I know that for the readers of the MoDel the best parts are the incidents and scenery; so if you'll stay with me I'll give you a little travelogue. We left Salt Lake City about 11:30 on Sunday. The weather was fair and warm but as we flew over the Rockies, it 'began to cloud up and the fog engulfed us until we could see very little, except clouds and they were pure fairyland.. We had to stop at Kansas City and as we lost altitude we could see the city in the rain, and the Missouri River. When we came down over Washington, Wash-ington, D.C. it was evening and the lights of the city were on. I was really thrilled at seeing the Potomac Poto-mac River, the flood-lighted Capitol Capi-tol Building, the Washington Memorial Me-morial and several other familiar-looking familiar-looking buildings. On Tuesday afternoon we were taken for a guided tour of the territory. ter-ritory. We visited the "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier" and watched the change of guard. We saw the statue, sta-tue, "Flag Raising n Iwo Jima", the White House, the Capitol, the Archives, the Smithsonian Institution, Institu-tion, the Lincoln Memorial, the Embassy Em-bassy Buildings, and many, many others. As we passed one block of im-portnat im-portnat buildings, we came to a corner and the guide said, "On your left is a church made of solid marble mar-ble built and dedicated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Latter-day Saints, commonly known as "Mormons". As he said that, the whole bus load of delegates turned as if on strings and looked at me. I stood up and bowed to the right Eleanor Roberts (Mrs. Brose) of Sutherland, one of two delegates from Utah to attend a National Ed ucation Ass'n meeting and work shop held in Washington, D.C Oct. 31 to Nov. 2, reports on her trip. in odd-chaped plots. We saw tre mendous cities sprawled over the land and when we saw the Mississ ippi I was really stirred. The pilot directed our attention to the place where the Missouri and Mississip pi Rivers met. Then we crossed the corn belt and the fields were laid out in mile-squares, square after square after square for miles and miles and miles. Magnificent! And then the Rockies! We came down out of the clouds over Strawberry Straw-berry Reservoir and saw Deer Creek flowing down toward Provo. From one side of our country to the other! And we came down in a storm and landed, by instruments so said the pilot, at Salt Lake City airport I drove home to Delta after dark, and bowed to the left and we all the longest and hardest part of the laughed and had a jolly good time. , trip, I suppose. But it was moon The next morning, though, at the . light and -vhen the Pahvant Valley beginning of our early , business session, one of the men who had been on the bus came over and started talking. Finally, he lowered his voice and said, "Would you tell me one thing, please?" I said, "Certainly, if I can." So he asked, keeping his voice very low, "Tell me, does your husband hus-band have more than one wife?" Another church incident: We were saying our farewells when the Hawaiian delegate came up. I said to him, "There are many people in the Islands who are of our faith. Are you L.D.S.?" He looked rapidly around and almost al-most indignantly he said, "No, no, no." Then he stopped and very quickly and softly he added, "But my girl is.' ' It was daylight and good weather when we started home. We were on a DC-7 and from the air I could see the gorgeous colors of the countryside. coun-tryside. The whole world looked covered with the reds, yellows, and greens of the fall leaves, and the Potomac was even more impressive than it had been coming down. As we flew west the scene changed as we crossed the Appalachian Mountains Moun-tains and came out over the Ohio Valley. The colors were different, more muted, and the farms were opened up and spread out ahead, I knew that the best part of any trip was the coming home. U.N. Club The United Nations Club sponsored spon-sored a social Thursday 4th period. per-iod. The dance got off to a good start by the majority of the stu dents getting out and dancing. Kent Gardner told about some of the basic purposes of the United Nations Na-tions Club and told us the reason for the social was that last week was United Nations Week. Ray Bishop was spinning the records and everyone had a lot of fun changing partners and enjoying the dance. PEP CLUB BREAKS TRADITION The Pep Club held a meeting last week to decide on Pep Club sweaters. sweat-ers. We think we chose a very attractive at-tractive sweater. This year's sweaters sweat-ers have collars which an be worn under if we do not want the col lars to show. Versatile, wouldn't : more magazines, you say!

You've heard the expression, "If it had been a snake it would have bitten me" when a person has asked ask-ed someone where a certain thing is that he Is advised Is right by him. I suppose this same "look, but see not" is our problem. We of the Mo-Del Mo-Del staff have been unaware of a gross error until Friday, Nov. 4, when one of the staff perused the staff box. Beverly Petersen, one of our members who does all her articles art-icles on her own time and very aptly apt-ly reports our Town Teen, has not been included in the staff box this year. Beverly, forgive our oversight. We assure you we are grateful for your competent reporting. YOUR .ITERATOR What is fifty cents worth? Ac cording to the inflated dollar It is worth about thirty cents; but to be more specific, what will fifty cents buy? How many times a month do you spend fifty cents and think nothing about it? You spend fifty cents for a hamburger and a malt, or a show, or put it in the "kitty" for the harvest ball queen, or the yearbook candidates for icing and queen and promptly forget you ever had the money. Well, then, isn't it a shame that a good school activity has to die because you students, stu-dents, and yes, even you parents, can't afford fifty cents. Every week in DHS nearly two hundred juniors and seniors compose com-pose papers for their different classes. class-es. Last year, for the first time these students had an opportunity opportuni-ty to be recognized for their work. The school magazine, MNEMOSYNE, MNEMOS-YNE, provided an outlet for talent heretofore recognized only by the teachers and a few fellow students. Last year nearly sixty students received re-ceived recognition in this' magazine. maga-zine. This year it looks as if this number num-ber will be cut in half. Why? Lack of funds! This problem can be off set, it seems, in only one way: sell but this Isn't as easy as it sounds. Last year, out same as last year's, ready for the basketball season.

Hi I i f iitliiit m s Villi, The youngster in school is like. the man in business for himself. If the student is on the job every day, works hard and makes every minute count he stands to realize sizeable profits. Why? Because job opportunities are better for persons with high school and college educations. Do the children in your community have rich and vital educational opportunities?

Erwin Farnsworth, this week's' Town Teen, is the oldest of the seven children of Erwin H. and Genevieve Farnsworth of Delta. This student, who has earned a good reputation scholastically, is also a participant in the extra-curricular activities at DHS. He is Vice Presdent of the Science Club, of which he has been a member for three years, and is Secretary of the United Nations Club. He is a member mem-ber of the Glee Club, the band, and the school play cast. Erwin was a member of the group of boys who attended Boys' State last year. He was a member of the football team and plans to participate in wrestling wrest-ling and track later in the year. As a scholar he takes his school work seriously and is one of the "real brains" at his school.

This time to the tune of 20-14. xxxxx The basketball intermurals began be-gan Nov. 7. The official practice begins the following Monday. Many basketball hopefuls have been working out since school started with hopes of breaking into the Rabbit squad. Kay Lovell ,1 V plans to pay half the cost of each magazine printed, but when only 140 of the 350 printed are sold, the expenditure rapidly exceeds the money anticipated.) It seems a shame that students don't take enough Interest in their school, and parents enough interest in their students to buy these magazines and see just what kind of talent is coming out of DHS other than a good athletic squad. I'll personally guarantee you won't find any better bet-ter in the nation. Ted Spend love ERWIN FARNSWORTH school in the state. It has some of the best teachers and principal that are available anywhere. The school spirit is really great and we have the best studentbody in the world. I think this year will be one of the outstanding ones for DHS." His schedule is as follows: trigonometry, trigonom-etry, physics, band, Sr. English, sociology, so-ciology, seminary, and athletics. His plans for the future include college. col-lege. For a hobby he collects coins and stamps. As a member of the LDS Church, Erwin holds the office of a Priest. He is also Secretary of the MIA. He has a remarkable record of 100 attendance in Sunday School, Sac rament Meeting, and Priesthood Meeting for the past six years. Erwin thinks about serious things during his leisure hours and while he is doin ghis chores. He is a per son who sets up goals and proceeds to work hard to attaui them. Be cause of this habit he has his pro gram outlined for the next few years. These are the traits that make Erwin Town Teen! Beverly Petersen Millard County Chronicle Thursday, November 10, 1960 From the Office Of the Principal The Government of the Family Lenard Bacon made the following follow-ing statement which is loaded with important meaning concerning the solving of many of the problems pertaining to parent, teacher; teacher, tea-cher, parent relationships. "Happy are the families where the government govern-ment of the parents is the reign of affection, and obedience of the children the submission of love." It takes but little attention and study to recognize that the students stu-dents from Delta High School come from splendid homes. Their attitudes, atti-tudes, their desire to learn, their enthusiasm in carrying their scholastic schol-astic loads, all point to fine training train-ing in the home. We recognize also, al-so, that the successful students are the students whose parents are vitally interested in their accomplishments, accomp-lishments, their joys and srrows. These parents are anxious to help find a solution to their children's problems. This is one reason why we at Delta High School are so anxious that parents be well-informed concerning con-cerning the educational programs that are offered at our school. We are convinced that in the solution of problems in the home, as well as in the problems of school our teenagers teen-agers are very capable of making good, solid recommendations in the formulation of policies. We sincerely suggest that in the home our young people are recognized recog-nized and that their reasoning is given whole-hearted recognition. This will develop a closeness between be-tween the child and his parents and will give him a feeling of importance im-portance that is so vital to his success suc-cess in life. got back? 1:30 that night? Sharlene Webb, what's this I hear about borrowing spoons at 11 o'clock at night. At her party Saturday Sat-urday night Sharlene forgot to furnish fur-nish her guests with spoons. Since it was up to her guests to furnish their own spoons to eat their refreshments, re-freshments, they went around to the various houses to get spoons. Honestly, Sharlene, that is not a very proper way to do it. I saw Jerry Bennett and Margaret Ashby dragging main Sunday afternoon. after-noon. She doesn't come up very much during the winter, but when she does, Jerry doesn't waste time! Well, that is all for this week, but just wait till next. Sleuther Rabbit The lltibbit Talk i Hi there!

Poor Joyce ! gets left in a few weeks; Joe's go ing on a mission. Oh, well, it happens hap-pens to the best of us. We were very sorry to learn of Mrs. Shcena's fall, which necessi tated her being hospitalized for several days. She is now convalescing convalesc-ing at her home. We miss you, Mrs. Schena, and hope yon will soon be back with us. Some one forgot Halloween was over and Tuesday hight plastered Dwight Cluffs car with shaving cream. Was it someone who carried a grudge? Come on someone, confess! con-fess! What's this I hear about a "flying "fly-ing shoe." It seems Ray Bishop was swinging his foot in Physics when zoom his shoe goes flying up to the demonstration desk. Ray didn't you tie your shoe very tight that morning? What's this I hear about Tony Western, and Lorraine Ogden; Vin Cropper and Francis Black last Tuesday? It seems they were mysteriously mys-teriously sick seventh period and they thought the good old mountain moun-tain air would do them some good. So up they went. When the time came to come home they found that the truck had not enough gas to make it back. To make a long story short they made it back a-bout a-bout eight that night. Boy, were some parents boiling! Pauline Black what were you 'o-ing 'o-ing down to Dwight Cluffs all day Saturday? It seems Pauline helped Mrs. Cluff d othe day's work while the men of the household went out hunting. What time didyou say you u y worb for you I try again Mrs. Benny Schena (Becky) is home from the Delta hospital, after being hospitalized from a fall last week. We all hope she soon is all right again. I must say that I know of no bad tricks happening on Halloween. The cute little goblins came around In droves, but after receiving a treat they quietly vanished. Somewhat Some-what different than it used to be, when it took a week to pick things up after the goblins had visited. I'm glad the deer hunt is over (except special permits). Not every one got their deer, but did get a lot of hunting and I hope a lot of fun. Our town members thought the bazaar up to Sutherland was very nice indeed; very good supper and many lovely and useful articles. Mrs. Luena Fullmer has been having a regular hospital over at her place; kiddies with the mumps and then she got an abcess on the back of her head. Edgar and Margaret Taylor have had their son, Bob and wife, from Reno, Nev here for a visit. Bob's health Is very much better. He will return home Tuesday (Election Mrs. Erma Petersen is home and children are here, also.
