Show Mountain Fuel Reports Increase In Earnings Mountain Fuel Supply Company and subsidiary reported an increase in earnings for the first six months of 1970, brisk sales . activity natural among gas users, and some significant nonutility oil developments, in an Interim Report to Shareholders released Tuesday. EARNINCS for six the months ended June 30, 1970, were $5,094,321, or $2.08 a share, compared with $4,542,459 or $1.86 a share for the same period in 1969. For the 12 months ended June 30, 1970, earnings were $7,311,174, or $2.98 a share, compared with earnings of $7,003,179, or $2.86 a share for the 12 months ended June 30, 1969. M. M. Fidlar, president of the natural gas utility, attributed the earnings increase to a combination of factors including growth in customers and gas usage and also to an unusual weather pattern of colder than average temperatures in the second quarter of the year following a warmer than average first quarter. The Company said it is connecting four Wyoming and two Utah communities to its system at the present time, has noted an increase in dealer sales of most gas appliances, and has recorded a sales increase to large users. SINCE THE first of the year, the Company has drilled or participated in the drilling of 18 successful oil wells, 16 of which are located in the Powder River Basin of northeastern the report said. Of Wyoming, the latter 16 wells, 14 are located in the llilight field, now the second largest producing field in Wyoming, and the other two in the Walker Creek field. Rates of oil production of Company wells in the llilight field range from a high of 3,552 barrels a day to a low of 246, the report said. The wells also produce natural gas ranging from 5,210,(XX) cubic feet of gas a day down to 317,(XX) cubic feet of gas a day. Production of both oil and gas is limited at the present time, however, pending completion of gas processing plants. Mountain Fuel also has completed two oil wells in the Sink Draw area Cedar Rim of Duchesne County, Utah, and is in the process of drilling a third well one mile west of its first producer. THE CEDAR Rim - Sink Draw area appears to be a part of a general oil productive trend area extending to the northeast through Shells new Altainont well and the Bluebell field (the Company has no ownership interest in either the Altainont well or the Bluethe report said. bell field), The Company is elated with the possibilities of the area because of the large acreage holdings it has west and north of its Cedar Rim and Sink Draw GRANTSVILLE NEWS Fern Williams - 884-347- WDmwDhHimnBBiiira 7 SECOND SECTION Funeral The Tooele Transcript, Fri., August 21, 1970 Held for Mr. 2X o Ceorge E.

PURPOSE Like the streamlets in the hills, it is when our endeavors get too diversified that they lack the steady power. A mans heart has only enough life or power in it to pursue one object fully. It is natural for one to have many streamlets of thought and desire but what is needed is one great, sustaining river of purpose and endeavor.

His first two steps were followed by agonizingly slow biological change. The leap to the moon will unquestionably be followed by rapid biological change initiated and implemented by man himself. We are the highest achievement reached so far in the natural course of evolution, but not the last word. Man may now take over his own evolution. Whatever can be explained by natural causes can be controlled and directed, and with the loss of inscrutability goes most of the mysticism and much of the terror. Within a millenium the moon has changed from a goddess to a space platform. Within a score of years man could change from a t, quarrelsome primate to a peaceful, fully developed Homa sapiens.
