Aschheim built his first rock store, a remarkable spring was discovered while excavating for the cellar. The spring was walled in and as the years rolled by it became an indispensable convenience and afforded, year in and year out, ice-cold ice-cold drinking water. An overflow and perfect drain were put in at considerable expense, and there this wonderful spring has remained, growing, as it were, to be a living part of that remarkably prosperous house. While many springs of equal force and volume have had their fountainheads tapped by some of the numerous tunnels which have been driven into the hills in search of precious metals, and been drained, the old reliable in Aschheim's cellar has never faltered, but has ever given up its usual volume of clear sparkling liquid. The spring was never thought of for any purpose other than affording a means of quenching thirst, its owners little dreaming all these years that it would eventually contain a secret which, when properly handled, would be as good as a gold mine. But that is now all changed, and the water that bubbles and boils from the depths below is known to contain some wonderful properties. By an accident it was learned that it would cure sour stomach, and investigation has proven that it is ten times as efficacious for all stomach and liver troubles as the best patent medicine now on the market Not only that, but it has been learned by actual trial that it is a famous tonic, and that after a long, tedious evening's work over columns of figures, where the brain is taxed until one's eyes become blurred and the head swims, a long draught of its waters induces perfect sleep, and one awakens feeling as fresh " ' and strong as if his veins have been filled with new life while the u 1 Jess Reid 4.

From Time to Time body was wrapped in slumber. In fact, the waters of this spring have undergone a complete change, both in color and properties. Whereas it was once clear as crystal, it is now a bluish gray; and while it has been used for drinking water for years without giving any sign of possessing healing properties, it now gives every indication of being a veritable medicine chest, and Solon Spiro, who made the discovery, has sent a bottle to the Smithsonian Institute for perfect analysis. He has kept the matter . very, quiet, desiring to be perfectly sure that he was not mistaken as to the wonderful qualities of the water before making it public, and it was only by the merest chance that the writer learned the facts in the case. Several parties who complained in Solon's presence of feeling tired and unrefreshed after a long night's sleep, have been given a bottle with the remark, "There is a compound of my own. Drink a goblet of that just before , , going to bed, and let me know how you feel in the morning.' In every case the result has been the same--the languid feeling had gone and new life seemed to be in the veins. It is a wonderful thing and Solon feels that he has found the spring of eternal youth in search of which Ponce de Leon wasted his own life and the lives of hundreds of his followers. Mr. Spiro does not intend to place the water on the market just yet, nor to give it out by the wholesale, but will furnish a few bottles to friends for trial provided they bring their own bottles and fill them themselves, when he is not at leisure. It is well to state here that no intelligent explanation can be arrived at as to what has caused this wonderful change. It is supposed to be due to some chemical action through which the water passes. 50 years ago Planning your Victory Garden Planting a Victory Garden in the y 3 ml Sunday Nights 7pm 3033 Arabian Drive (Park Meadows) For information call 645-7314 backyard or community plot is work, but it is work the average . man or woman in a war plant can do. Any worker who is discouraged about his won prospects of have a good Victory Garden should take a look at the rules of good planting. They are important, but they are , not too tough to take. Here are ten basic principals, as issued by the Office of War Information: 1. Choose good soil. It should be as level and rich as possible, and comparatively free of large stones, stumps or other objects that interfere with spading and planting. 2. Select a sunny area. And if trees are near, plant only beyond the ends of the limbs because these measure the extent of the underground roots which suck fertility out of the soil. 3. Plan to plant vegetables of high nutritive value. A good simple key is this three-fold color scheme; red for tomatoes; green for green and leafy vegetables, such as cabbage, lettuce, lima beans and snap beans; yellow for onions and carrots-all high in vitamins and minerals. 4. Space plantings so as to have crops ripening all through the summer. This can be done by timing plantings of the same vegetables several weeks apart. 5. Prepare ground thoroughly, breaking up clods, working sod finely with a rake, removing stones and trash.. 6. Fertilize well. Use ground that has come from rotted leaves, or from the compost pile if you have one. Apply commercial fertilizer if the ground is not already rich. Fertilizer speeds up growth and if vegetables don't grow fast they become tough and tasteless. 7. Keep weeds down. 8. Be ready to fight insects with insecticides. Experienced neighbors can tell you when insects are most likely to arrive. It's A F30Y! Dave and Agnes Howard are pleased to announce the birth of their baby boy ' Connor Benjamin born March 23, 1993 weighing 6 lbs. 1 3oz. 9. Utilize everything you grow, Don't let anything go to waste, even if you have to give it away. Tomatoes should be canned at home in as great quantities as possible for they are rich in necessary vitamins and they also cost high in point rationing stamps if bought canned at the store. 10. Always get the best advice you can. The Department of agriculture has a pamphlet call "Victory Gardens" and other helpful bulletins. Local authorities in many places have arranged for gardening instruction. And neighbors who have gardened before can give valuable help with time tables and knowledge of the soil of your community. 25 years ago Tourism training clinic in Park City on April 27 The Utah State University extension services now offer community tourism training workshops designed to equip those involved in the industry with a better understanding of the tourist and the ability to serve him. Why? Well, did you know that of nine western states Utah is first in number of National Parks, second in number of National Monuments and fourth in number of National Forests. Yet, Utah is seventh in receipts from tourists, eighth in annual employment in hotels and other lodging, sixth in overnight visits to National Parks. Utah is strategically located at the "crossroads of the west." It possesses a great variety of quality of travel and recreation resources distributed throughout the state. Utah is rich in historical heritage. You have to go a long way to find any place as beautiful as Utah! Yet Utah ranks fourth in the length of stay of the out-of-state visitor...fourth from the bottom, that is, of all SO states, and the VIEWS, VIEWS, A i'f rafeBaMJfei)VHftia'ii Ifc Two Westridge lots on appro. .5 acre each.

The need is obvious. Utah can bring more tourists. Utah communities must keep them longer if Utah is to assume a . leading role in a large, competitive, thriving industry. Utah communities must extend a friendly, quality hand. Tourism can mean more jobs, increased salaries, employment stability, better roads, better schools, improved communities, a great place to live. Community tourism training workshops, planned throughout the state during the spring of 1968 are for services personnel: waitresses, cooks, motel clerks, maids, service station attendants, and their bosses. They focus upon the tourist and his needs and desires. On Saturday, April 27, the first session will be at 8:15 a.m. A second session will be at 10: IS a.m. in Park City.

He was referring to the recent discovery of large numbers of celibacy cases within Summit County. "We again have the California crazies to thank for this latest Demo Ski Resort 649 - VIEWS HOT Dennis Hanlon 649-4400 645-5850 "Dedicated to finding the perfect home for you. " "Pgr CAFE As good as the best . . . better than the rest. fad," explained Simpleton. It began radically enough with punk youth sticking staples in part of their genital area. Then the trend moved up to young, single, middle-class middle-class adults. Chanting "Hell no, we won't go-all the way," demonstrations were reported from trendy Marin to the beach communities of Hermosa, Manhattan and Malibu. Now, Simpleton reports even his own wife appears to be stricken. "I mean it's been weeks, guys." Debby Symondsof the Convention Bureau is also alarmed. "Our reputation as a swinging : four-season resort community could be seriously damaged by this latest health epidemic. We plan to fight this thing with billboards and radio spots and we are immediately distributing 10,000 bumper stickers that say 'I do, I do, in Park City.' We can't take this thing lying down. At least, not alone," she winked. The Park City Community Clinic concurs that there have been large numbers of young adults seeking publications and pamphlets to help them say NO. "We know there are a number of parents who don't want their children, young men especially, to ' take up this trend. But we are distributing these free materials to underage youths just the same. It's our responsibility to be responsive to the needs of the community. When these kids have questions, even as bizarre as these are, we respond."
