One never grows to old to learn, ar.d this Is Illustrated here year after year by the number of people who enter the college for ref- reslier courses, or who take something they have desired to learn all their lives and now that the children are old enough to be almost on their own, they go back to school.

In some of the classes I have taken I have had cv experience of being In a class with a child and meeting its parents on their way to another class. It is a challenage to us of the Basin to build this college that our young people may have an opportunity in the world that they could get In no other way.

Tin horse and car has replaced the hugy for most of our transportation needs. The tractor has replaced the horse in the field. Entertainment needs are generally handled by a sophisticated media, replacing events concocted by our own initiative and imagination. True, things have changed, but it would appear to us that this change should not make us lose sight of the hertiage we have here in Utah and particularly in the Uintah Basin, of keeping alive a tradition of self- - reliance in providing for ourselves a means of amusement and entertainment. One of the outstanding means of entertainment, which has been perpetuated by our forebears, is competition with horses. Although the horse is no longer the main stay insofar as transportation is concerned and for a period it appeared that this friend of man might become extinct it has recently moved back into prominence as a means of filling leisure hours in hobby and entertainment. As we look back on the his- tory of the Uintah Basin, rodeos, races and riding meets have always highlight the yearly activities. Team pulling also fell into this category, but has pretty well become a thing of the past. In recent years, however, support for been, a of these Basin shows has dwindled. BIRTHS Several shows have curtailed their annual run, even though they had been going for many years. This week marks the beginof the summer riding and ning rodeo season. The riding meet in Roosevelt will kick off a series of rodeos and meets that include Neola, Myton, Altamont, Duchesne and other communities. 7. i . i iSfiiii j j f&to i&xstxre j ' May Flowers i Begin Allergy Problems The allergy seasons brgin now.

Nothing has ever come easy to us out in the Great Utntah We have had to turn Basin. every sod and reap every grain of wheat that nothing is wasted so that we can go on existing. We have grown up fighting for what we thought was right and for a mouthful of food to put into our mouths. And this fighting spirit is found in 3 MODERN Rx DRUG Roosevelt, Utah Phone 251 PRESCRIPTION CHEMISTS r years. Of course it started as cowhands on one ranch would challenge their neighboring counterparts to a contest of the skills of their trade. Interest grew until these events would be the highlight of the summer. Shows today have added competition for animals as well as riders. Conformation and training of the horses are judged in halter classes. Training and abilities nf the horses are also put to test in cow cutting competition. The rider and horse combine their skills in the performance class. Rodeo events pit the skill of man against the power and skill of the animal. It would appear to us that we need to build on this heritage, we need to keep this spark of the old West alive and growing. We can do this by supporting the various meets that are scheduled during the summer. Jenkins, Tablona, a boy.
