Show 3fifL VICWP j'5rX CLIFF MEMMOTT, Editor Casually Observing HONOR OF STATE-WIDE DISTINCTION has come this week to two students at Union High School. One in the field of homemaking and the other in athletics. . . We're all mighty proud of the achievements of Miss Earlene Warburton, who has been declared Utah winner in a Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow contest in which 500 Utah girls competed. Because of her outstanding paper she wrote on a given subject in connection with Homemaking, and which was judged tops in the state, Earlene will receive a $1500 scholarship, and a chance to compete com-pete in a national contest, the winner of which will receive $5000 to be applied on a scholarship to aid in a college education. educa-tion. . . Not only do we offer congratulations to Eearlene, but . we present her instructor, Mrs."' Myrtle Lambert, a large bowl of orchids for her part, which was a great amount, in the success suc-cess of one of her students. THE OTHER STUDENT THAT comes in for a word of congratulations is Richard (Packy) Fenn, member of Union's basketball team the past three years, who has been chosen on two all-state teams. . . His selection Is one of the five best players in High School basketball in Utah, is a definite tribute to a fine athlete, and one we all share in. . . It is also a compliment com-pliment to Packy's coach, his school, and to the entire Uintah Basin. I compliment Packy on his achievement. NOTHING WILL BE GAINED from the honor that has come to these two fine students and citizens of the Uintah Basin, unless they let the honor become a motivating force to achieve and accomplish greater things along the road of life. . . Their skills give them a definite advantage over other students, and if they will magnify their opportunities for good, then we all will benefit from their achievement. SO, BEST OF LUCK to Earlene Warburton in your national venture, and to Packy Fenn for taking advantage of the God given skills. Each is an opportunity that will make a college education possible, and a chance to travel along the road to success and happiness. r ANOTHER BASIN PIONEER RETIRES from participation in a business he started over forty years ago, as George C. Kohl moves out of the active management of Kohl's Department Depart-ment Store in Duchesne. . . Stepping into the general management manage-ment on a full scale basis is Donald Bench, a man who has operated as manager for a number of years, and who became president of the corporation. A HOST OF FRIENDS join me in wishing Mr. Kohl and his "wife many years of pleasure and happiness in the long rest they have earned. . . We also congratulate him on the fine organization or-ganization he has built up, and the service rendered during those forty years since his large store in Duchesne had its first humble beginning. TO DON BENCH ALSO GOES a word of encouragement and compliment in stepping into the very large shoes of his predecessor. His many years of training under Mr. Kohl makes him a very able successor, and one who no doubt will keep up the fine traditions of service and quality merchandise the company com-pany has enjoyed over the years. Duchesne and the entire area it serves, is fortunate in having such an outstanding business enterprise in its vicinity. v E v They called General Jackson "Old Hickory" because, among other things, he had survived smallpox, tuberculosis, malaria, rheumatism, dysentery and a bullet under his heart and yet lived to the age of 78 and was going strong up to the last. 1 If Congressmen had to pay their per capita share of the national debt out of their own pockets, they'd go slower about increasing it. f A woman in England has had 22 children, all single births, in 25 years of marriage. 30 |
