Lee TO MY FRIEND Wish that I could let you know All the joy your friendship brings- Find it mighty hard to tell Words are such imperfect things; . But within my heart I keep ' Thoughts that I cannot express. Only this-your friendship fills All my life with happiness! And were you ever a long way from home and been gone some time, then this: Gee but it's great to meet a friend From your home town. What difference does it make If he is up' or down; When he takes you by the hand There's a feeling you can't understand. Gee, but it's great to meet a friend From your home town. What The People Think "Dock" Watson. A friend loveth at all times. -Proverbs 17 There is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. --Proverbs 18 There can be no friendship without confidence, and no confidence without sincerity. Rambler , The first law of friendship is sincerity .-Anon "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Jesus Chris . Friendship fills the world with joy. What would the world be without it? We depend upon our friends, we cannot live without them. A man's best friend-his dog; a boy's best friend, his dad. "A friend in need Is & friend indeed." A smile will make and keep a friend A smile will kill a frown A smile will bring sunshine again, And bid the gloom be gone. O.B.J. When the days are gloomy sing some happy song Meet the world's repining with a courage strong. Go with faith undaunted through the ills of life Scatter smiles and sunshine oe'r its toil and strife.

Gentlemen: .V The discussion that I am asking you to print may be a little too long, but I do hot know what to cut out and still say the things I should like for the people to consid er. At any rate here it is and if iti is too long maybe you will be kind enough to help me by cutting it down and still put over the idea. AIRPORT It seems that each of the major cities in our county is trying for an airport with their immediate vicinity. Some times certain groups in the cities get a little over enthused in trying to do something for their respective communities. Most community enthusiasm is very commendable, but it some times happens that small commun ities lose a good thing because we fail to see beyond our individual needs. Anybody, looking into the future at all, can see the need coming for a good airport not too far from his own town. He can also see that this port should be just as service able as possible. By that I mean fairly close to the places it serves and by all means close to bus ser vice if possible. An air field should be modern in every way for safety and service. The ground, of course, should be level and easily access-able access-able from the main highways. . To provide a good airport, in a good location and with every mod em convenience which . it must have,' will take more money than any town in Utah County can provide, pro-vide, with the pos&twie exception of Provo. If Oremr Pleasant Grove, American Fofk, and Lehi each string along alone trying to jset an airport 'we are apt to be a long time in getting one and even u we each get one it cannot be one like we could get if we pull together. I see ho great benefit, except from , a service standpoint, accruing to a city through its ownership of an airport. This article is written largely for the sake of discussion. This is live subject. To much emphasis cannot be placed upon the quality and serviceability of an airport. If clubs or groups think enough of the idea to carry it on, please write or call me and I shall be glad to make contacts between groups. . It is very doubtful that the gov ernment will go along with any one of our cities in our attempt to get "our share" of air port money. On the other hand it is quite certain that if we pool our interests we could get something worth having. It is obvious that I am in the real estate business, but to dispel any idea that I am talking for a commission in connection with this discussion will say that I am will ing to give any part or all of a commission that might . come should it develop to the point where the ground I am about to mention should be selected for an airport. I am intensely interested in getting a good airport which would serve the North end of our county. As I tacked the signs up on a certain piece of property yesterday yester-day I thought what a wonderful opportunity for an airport for these cities. The intersection of Fourth East and State Street was the scene of a 3-car collision Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. in which nine persons mirac ulously escaped injury. Ernest H; Larson of Lehi, driv ing a 29 Ford was traveling east on the highway and stopped at the side of the road at the 4th East intersection to await the passing of two trucks before making a left turn North. As the trucks passed by, he swerved sharply to the left, into the path of a west bound '40 Chevrolet driven by Eugene Jensen of Richfield. The bumper of the Larson machine struck the left front fender of the Jensen car as the latter turned off the highway to the North to avoid a head-on collision. . A '41 Ford coupe, driven by Elsie E. Gease of Provo, which was be hind the Jensen car, struck the rear of the Larson machine, with an estimated $200 damage to the Gease car. Mrs. Gease stated she was unable to avoid thecrash, as an East-bound car was aproaching from the west. : Mr. Larsonwas held responsible for the collision, as he was making an improper left-hand turn into the path of approaching traffic, invest igating officers stated. - Marshall Dell Asay , Deputy Marshall Rodney Dickerson and Patrolman Neldon Evans invest igated. .

In keeping with the . "Know Your Living Pioneer's Week," which has been proclaimed by the Sons of the Utah Pioneers for March 9 to 16, the Lehi Sun pays To these noble men and women tribute to Lehi's living pioneers who played such a major role in the early settling of Lehi, and in the development of our state of Utah, we wish to pay them honor at this time. In keeping with the suggestion of the state organization of the Sons and Daughters of Utah Pioneers, Pion-eers, that we know our living pioneers pio-neers better, The Lehi Sun is beginning be-ginning a series of interviews with each of the pioneers of our community, comm-unity, the first in the series to begin be-gin next week. Each has led a colorful col-orful life and has many vivid memories of the early days, which will be interesting to younger members of our citizenry. The following list of names was compiled by H. A. Anderson and W. L. Worlton of the Sons and Daughters of the Utah Pioneers and Indian War Veterans organiz ation. The following made the trek a- cross the plains, arriving in Utah before the railroad was built on May 10, 1869: Parley Austin, Jane Lewis, Har riet B. Smith, Charles F. Johnson, Julia Austin Brown, Mary Comer, and Thomas Jones. The folowing are native pioneers of Utah, born before the advent of the railroad: Daniel Howard "Bin" Cox, John Woodhouse, H. J. Evans, Mary Ann Southwick, Mrs. Gay Whipple, Don Loveridge, A. B. Anderson, Henry Sorenson, Walter L. Webb, Jane Webb Smith, Seth Littleford, William Dorton, Joseph Andreason, James H. Gardner, Melvin Johnson, Rachel Anderson, Mary Cox Peterson, Peter-son, Mary Winn, Andrew Fjeld, Soren Sorenson, James C Gough, Lettie Gudmundsen, Andrew Christofferson, Chris-tofferson, William T.

This property is located just west of Pleasant Grove and south of the state road. It joins highway 91." There are anywhere from 30 to 100 acres available at reason able prices. The first thing most people will say is that this land is too wet. This land is about exactly ex-actly the same kind of soil as the land upon which the steel plant stands. Even if it does need drain ing, what of it? There are mountains mount-ains of gravel near by. It is not as low as the Provo port and is about the same as the Salt Lake airport. Some of the proposed locations are far too valuable for residential areas, especially when a much better bet-ter and more serviceable location can be had for less money and one which is not apt to interfere with fine homes. Thank you. Let me hear from you. C. H. ANDERSON Orem, Utah The stake Spin-Gro dance, held by the special interest groups of the MIA in the Second wart hall Wednesday, was very successful, with a large crowd in attendance.
