The council building is the closest thing to a city hall that Magna Mrs. Pehrson has, said, and under its roof is now housed a host of services that benefit a great many people.

In summing up, she said, There are good people in Magna and in spite of what some people think, it is a good place to live. Now all we have to do is make other people believe that this is true and not the end of the world. TOPIC (From Page 13B, Col. 9) the Eighties, 231 E. 400 South, Suite 100, Salt Lake City, 84111.
