work the old merrill house has been i hold and la is being torn down and moved away it la Is more than jt ao an old agg house tor most of ua 04 we associate a great many of our youthful memories with it it has haai stood there as a land mark for near dear ly forty years porter merrill the first presiding elder of the old mer ril ward built it from him and hla his family this ward aard received the nanie name which it retained over a quarter of a century prom from the genial hospitable sociable and simple straightforward nature of this man and his family we received much of the social ideala and atmosphere that has baa always characterized the naples people while these old buildings must go we hope t he good old spirit of the men who built them will always be among us the naples store Is once more changing hands george L good rich who has served the people of this section by carrying on a good clean business for the last dozen years or more now finds his hands too full of business and is disposing of the store we have missed the store during the last few months while it has been closed most moat of the time due to the scarcity of help and the fact that george had bad to 0 o tend end hla farni farm and see to his road work the new owners are elmer lind land and by I 1 rou goodrich they are young and vigorous and we will expect good service from them also martin allred Is still relieving the farmers of their surplus hogs this week he ha shipped two largo large truck loads out to the salt lake market I 1 when do you think the flu will stop Is the very common question these das daa just as aa it if the flu would ever stop it would be more reasonable to ask in case of a forest fire when do you think the fire will stop stopa because it would stop when the timber was burned and it could not go back over the same ground again tho the flu has the same power of stopping itself as the fire has as long as the timber lasts lasta but it seems to pass over its ground again it will stop when we stop it too many are settling down to ta fa tall attitude it it cornea comes it cornea mes and it it docan t very well 0 god helps those who bo help them selves what have we done in athla valley to rid ourselves of this terr terrible terrial ibl calamity nothing on the mothr hand band everything that could be done has been done dome to spread the disease in very many cases those who have taken sick with it have been slow to recognize the fact and slower still to give up to it and keep away from other people scarcely a one has ban asked to be quarantined and many even oppose it the quarantine itself seems to mean little more than a notice now those people have the influenza it 11 you dont want to go in stay out why not feel that we have a degree at least of social responsibility and feel that we are our brothers brother keeper enough to guard hta his health and life we should willingly exclude our solves solve from others and stay lit at home there ther see beema t to be a common disposition to get ou out t as soon as possible no matter the danger to others and some come have left a yellow trail of flags for the first few days they are out one being bolted past a nurse in the hospital against her protest and went forth to spread the disease to repay the kindness that tha t had been shown him county officers have done nothing the city officials are opposed on every hand quarantine officers are nade to feel like intruders it they do their duty for all this neglect indi indifference fforence and selfishness we are paying a heavy toll in loss of business social decay lost educational opportuna tle tie tor for the young people increased sickness in the home and the lives of many of oar good people to overcome all these evils Is certainly reward enough tor for the best beat co opera tion between officers of 0 the county and the city and the people gen 1 brally surely these are worthy the most diligent individual care |
